“Open since 1978 with only 9 reviews? They deserve more! I can't believe I haven't visited sooner. This is a HUGE church thrift store with super affordable prices. They were having a half-off clothing sale so shirts that were already only $4 were $2! Some t-shirts were 50 cents. I got some blank t-shirts, wool vest, wool Eddie Bauer sweater, some LL Bean button downs, and a couple nice pewter candlesticks for only $40 total. I passed on a couple beautiful things there like a long wool Calvin Klein coat and Coach purse that were a steal. They have lots of housewares and craft items but unfortunately not many books or records. Their hours are limited but it's a must-stop if you're into thrifting. Such a better experience (and better prices) and Goodwill or Salvation Army plus all proceeds benefit the church.”

“Excellent store!! Such wonderful people! Lots of different cool items. I always think of these people instead of dropping things off at Savers. If you have any great condition items, I would probably bring them to these people I like to support the little stores. If you’re looking for something specific chances are they might have it. I can’t say enough about how friendly they are. These new owners are wonderful.!!”

“Good, curated selection but the store itself is small and the racks/shelves are packed full of merchandise. It gets a bit claustrophobic if there are more than a dozen people inside. They have a dressing room but they only allow 3 items at a time. Parking is limited. I’m a much bigger fan of their location in Framingham.”

“So, so glad this is an option here in Lynn! Amazing mission and Wednesdays are 20% off your entire purchase! Love it! They have $5 racks as well as clearance at $1 per clothing article. They have gorgeous selection of evening wear and even wedding dresses! The wedding dresses I saw were about $100 each but again, they have discount days. They have some hand selected items that cost a little more at $10-20 depending on brand. They also have furniture, lots of book, and some media selection. Affordable and very friendly staff, already went twice and plan to add into my rotation of places to visit when in the mood to shop.”

“I had such a wonderful experience with the owner of the shop. She’s absolutely incredible. I first found her on TikTok and I followed her. She was so friendly and made it very easy to shop. I chose a wonderful bag that I’m very happy and excited to receive I definitely recommend 10 out of 10.”

“We were visiting from out of town and happened upon this thrift store. To me, this store is everything I love about thrifting. It's small enough to not be overwhelming, they stock a great variety of items, the prices are incredibly cheap which keeps inventory moving, the staff are friendly and an extra bonus that my toddlers could play in the toy section without me feeling like that was discouraged. I can't wait to visit again!”

“LOVE this Thrift store! Friendly staff, great prices, and really great stuff. I always find great vintage finds and clothing. I love things from the 60’s,70’s, and 80’s and they seem to have something from those eras when I shop.”

“Closet Connection is one of my favorite places to shop. The owner is absolutely amazing and has helped me find several incredible gifts for my wife through her personal shopping recommendations. Every single time I come in, I walk out with something she loves, it never fails.

The selection is fantastic, with beautiful, unique pieces you don’t find anywhere else, and everything is in great condition. What really sets this store apart is the personalized service. The owner genuinely takes the time to understand what you’re looking for and makes shopping easy and enjoyable.

I can’t recommend Closet Connection enough if you’re looking for great finds and exceptional customer service.”

“I find the most awesome clothes for my toddler girl here. The clothing quality and selection is amazing. I’ll always leave with something that ends up being a huge hit with our daughter, like her giraffe costume, pop up book, cute shoes, etc. Thank you Growing Up!!!”

“Absolutely amazing! Everything is pretty much $1. Came here with a friend when we’d just moved here from the UK, and picked up a brand new wardrobe. Staff are super lovely, tons of different things to buy from shoes to books, bags to tvs. Highly recommend, couldn’t improve what so ever. Open every other saturday 11-1pm and wednesdays 3-6pm, I make sure to go every week you never know what you’ll find! Tons of new stuff everytime, ive had designer brands and fully new labelled items.”

“Now this is what I call a thrift store! It has vintage items and you have to look for some great finds! The prices are affordable and the quantity/quality of clothes is abundant. They have trinkets as well along with a free table of stuff. The staff is also sweet and helpful. Get lost in the options!!!”

“Every time I've been to Goodwill they've been very helpful to me! Cashiers are very friendly very helpful if you need something? And cheerful attitude! This is the kind of thing I would love to see for every business! But the Goodwill where I've gone to in Boston definitely is all that and a bag of chips! ??”

“A rather well organized store… The toys/books section is quite huge compared to other locations I had visited. I have to say some jackets are quite expensive like $30 a piece which isn’t really justified - they look like 1950s jackets but were in fact made in the 70s or later…”

“The salvation army in Central square in Cambridge on Massachusetts avenue health helped a lot of people throughout the long years that they have been there in that location. I have never stayed there overnight but I have occasionally had need of a shower which they were able to accommodate and a meal from time and time and a couple times during my laundry when I didn't have any money to do them,, don't let your pride get in the way of getting some help from a place like salvation army!! You need to call at 6:00 a.m. the same day to reserve a bed if they have any if you need a place to sleep for the night. If you're going to be staying there I recommend trying to get a bed as close as possible to staff as possible, do not have any loose belongings on you when you go there as they might get stolen, if we have something of value keep it under your shirt or coat or sweater and tie it to you securely before you go to sleep..”

“I love this location! I always walk out with some fun goodies and they have such a great collection of vintage ceramics/plates. The employees are nice considering all the craziness they have to put up with but Richard is my fave guy. Def take a look if you’re ever nearby!”

“My sister and i started thrifting there to donate cloths for homeless and refugees. They have great selection of quality warm clothes at a decent price. The best part of it is the staff, manager Leslie is so kind and professional. the 2 other girls that work there (sorry i dont recall their name) are so lovely. I am grateful that the Salvation Army and their staff of helping us help others. Thank you, Leslie and team. You guys are the BEST :)”

“I have mixed feelings about this place. Prices are on the higher side for a thrift store but they do have 25% off days (for clothes, household stuff, etc.) so you just have to keep that in mind to make the most of your bargains. On occasion one can find a great deal - like an Aerogarden for $5. Items are well labeled. Store is clean and well organized. Staff is polite. Not enough parking. Nice neighborhood and clientelle is polite.”

“You can find good dishes. I can only be in there for about 30 minutes before my face starts breaking out in hives. That’s when I know it’s time to go very dusty.”

“I love the store they've got two floors of great stuff I've been in there three times once with two other people and someone and then with me and one other gentleman they have a great selection they take their time to explain the items and they should stay in business as a very long time.”

Trinity <3 especially is a lovely person to chat with during the selling process and I can say the same about every employee I’ve ever worked with. Truly a gem of a place, thanks to everyone who makes this store a fun and joyful experience every single time I’m in.”

“I think this is my favorite Savers. All Savers have high prices (4 stars) - some stuff at TJ Maxx/Marshalls brand new is cheaper, but if you're looking for things to up cycle (I sew) or older things (my kids want old clothes) it's great. This is the most well stocked and organized Savers I've ever been to. Staff were really nice!”

“The best buffalo exchange I’ve been to - great selection, unbeatable prices, and really kind staff. I heard they are getting troll reviews that are hurting their rating - it’s a shame because this was one of my best thrifting hauls in a minute!!”
