“I just love Upscale so much! The sections are organized so you can find items based on what you're looking for- from clothing to kitchenware to furniture and lighting. I love their mission, and they have half off sales relatively frequently. The inventory changes and I find new treasures every time I go! Especially recommend to anyone looking for interesting furnishings.”
“There’s an insane of amount of stuff packed into this one unique store, definitely take your time going through everything because I’m sure you’ll walk out with something”
“It’s a very well organized store with really nice employees. Love the half off sale! I understand it is a consignment store but prices were a bit high for my liking.”
“Great little faith-based thrift store with a solid selection of antiques and vintage finds. Prices are super fair, and the staff is friendly and helpful. Highly recommend if you're into unique pieces and supporting a good cause.”

“We adopted Weather yesterday. She is such a WONDERFUL, 2 year old mixed breed stray from out of town. Reach really does their due-diligence - checks your references and interviews you! Until you're cleared for take off, the one boss lady can seem a little strict, but anyone can see that everyone there has the best interests of the animals passionately in their hearts! There are so many cases of abuse and neglect in this world, and they want to make sure none of their beloved animals become a statistic.
I've owned small businesses and done a lot of volunteer work. I know too well that things don't always go right despite good intentions. To the other reviewers that didn't report 5-star experiences, I urge them to show some grace to these dedicated and passionate volunteers. Their hearts are AMAZING!
Thank you Reach Rescue!”

“We went to Lambs Farm with our grandchildren. We had so much fun feeding hay to the goats, sheep, horses, cows and llama. The animals are so tame and very well cared for. The girls had a great time. We also played mini golf. The mini golf course needs a little sprucing up but still fun. Great time had by all. We did not go to the thrift shop as this heading states, just the Farm area.”
“Love this place. I have brought 3 cats here to get the low cost spay/neuter. All.3 cats healed up perfectly and quickly. You drop off your cat in the morning around 8-9am and then go back and pick them up mid afternoon around 1-3pm. They provide you with the pain meds and head cone, They also got them up to date with all shots and rabies vaccine and provide the rabies tag as well, for a lower cost than many other places.The staff is wonderful and very helpful. Everyone I have dealt with here has been super sweet and very knowledgeable.I highly recommend this place and won't go anywhere else.”

“I love this thrift shop staff is kind and I always donate all of my gently used items here. I know they go to a good cause and will sell at a fair price. I really appreciate the low prices. It’s what thrift shops are all about. No stinginess. Good items for good prices and nice staff is very important. Oh And I must say it is very clean and doesn’t smell vs other thrift shops ! I love that I get text messages from them about sales and events. I will continue to support this place by donating and buying. This is my favorite sparrows locations.”

“They have some really great stuff! I like that they expanded and have made little areas in the store that coordinate. Tons of name-brand and brand new items too. Very pleased! Super friendly staff as well.”
“My son is always looking for dvd/blue ray movies and records. This goodwill is a great location. I found a few really great board games here also. Staff are really great too and the store is really well organized and clean.”
“Always find something great at Forest & Found. Prices aren't Goodwill level, but items are always of high quality, so beats having to find a needle in a haystack at GW or Salvation Army. Often find NWT clothes for my wife for a great price and I appreciate the good selection of men's clothes in the basement. Diana is very friendly and helpful!”

“This is my favorite thrift store. It's packed with stuff so you're bound to find something. Clothing selection for women is pretty nice. Shoes are okay. Knick knacks galore. A good CD pops up every once in a while. One time somebody donated their preserved butterfly collection; that was pretty cool. However, the prices are not that great. If you memorize the color schedule, you might be able to snag something good for half off, which is what I usually wait to do. AC works fine. Customer service is also fine as long as you don't get up in their face.”

“I always love shopping here by myself and with my family. Great prices and daily sales. I was there the other day and heard a young woman with some kind of disability working there with a job coach. She was doing a fantastic job as was the job coach. It was confirmation that St Vincent shares my values and is committed to improving society in a way I would like to support. They will now always be my first stop!”
“This is a thrift store supporting aid to disenfranchised people. It is clean and organized. It has a staffing issue like most other businesses. I wonder if the complainers have ever held a job or if they think they're in Neiman Marcus.”
“Big selection of clothes with a lot of different stuff to choose from. Many other household items and unique items to find. If you like thrift stores it's definitely worth browsing. I was glad to see it wasn't too dirty or have a bad smell.”
“I visited here for the first time on a Friday, and for me it was ok… they had a great sale going in 40% off clothes which was nice, the store had alot to choose from I left with two items which I love. Definitely worth a stop”
“Great place!! The Salvation Army in general as an organization truly does help people in the struggle. I don't think people realize the Salvation Army is more than just a set thrift stores. In my time of need SA was there to help me in my battles.”
