I stop by here when visiting family in Ottowa. I enjoy shopping here than I do in my home state.

Please lower your prices, and utilize a system when pricing items so you don’t have three of the same item priced at 3 different dollar amounts. Great potential, poor execution.

Pretty ridiculous prices for a little thrift store in KANSAS. These prices are higher than the west coast. $4 bucks for a pair of baby pants or 2.50 for a stained shirt, OR if it’s something they deem “nice” then be prepared to pay $15 for a 2T skirt
