Thrift Stores near Alexandria, LA

“Great lil Goodwill - managers were top notch too. I was only passing through and just barely made it back to pick up a school desk/table and sofa since they close at 4pm (?). I'll return as a shipper as they are very well run.”

“Amazingly great selection at super low prices. I find something nearly every visit. Not to mention any money made goes to a great non-profit, The Junior League of Alexandria, which goes right back into the community. I highly recommend a visit around the holidays because the inventory flips fast, so you see new stuff daily and a lot of specialty item’s come through you won’t see in other local Thrift Shops.”

“Fun, enjoyable, great way to spend some together time with family or friends hunting for "treasures". You are sure to walk away with something! (I always do!!!?)”

“We drop off and frequent this thrift shop often. It is operated only a few hours a few days a week by the sweetest ladies you will ever meet. They want you to take as much stuff as possible because they know you will use it, so pay them fairly, and you will walk out with more stuff than you can fit in the car!”

“I am so glad I found this place. The prices are great and they have a huge selection of things. I hope they keep the prices the same and not go up like goodwill. I won't even donate to goodwill anymore”

“Currently the best goodwill location in town mainly due to staying open until 6pm when the other location closes very inconveniently at 4pm. Dressing rooms are available and employees are usually helpful and show good customer service skills. The manager could be a bit more friendly and approachable though. Everything is usually in good order and easy to find with no clothing items damaged in a way that would make them unwearable. Prices could be better but that is an issue with Goodwill itself and not this location specifically. I do still appreciate that this location honors the punch card (10 punches awards 25% off entire purchase) and utilizes the color of the week discount system. (Items marked with the color of the week are 50% off) I visit Goodwill locations in every town i visit and so far only Cenla locations have these two discounts/savings, however, the locations that do not, seem to have lower prices overall in some departments.A review of Goodwill in general:The pricing of items leaves much to be desired when it is not at all what I imagine and would rather see when donating MY used items. I choose to donate at times, instead of reselling them myself, with the hopes of helping out someone in need. I don't donate to Goodwill any longer because it seems more like I am just giving away money to a corporation and helping them to profit off of people in need. Many times when shopping there due to having a financial hardship, I find I am being charged same-as-new prices or higher than new prices believe it or not.Goodwill does, however, offer the option to exchange within 10 days which seems fair for the most part. 99% of the time I don't ever have to utilize this option, as I can try on before purchase, but it definitely gives me comfort knowing its an option. Instead of this lowering my purchasing amount, it increases it, as I feel confident in buying, bc I know it won't go to waste compared to purchasing at other second hand stores that don't allow try ons, returns, or exchanges.”
