Thrift Stores in Kalamazoo, MI

“Easily one of my favorite stores to shop and relax. There is always an abundance of items to look at and “discover.” :)

The staff/volunteers are the nicest people around. Very polite and care about your experience. There was an item I wanted to buy, but one of the pieces went missing, at least three people tried looking for it. (It was found, but not until after I left) they saved it for me until the next time I came in!

They have a pretty good rewards program along with some good deals.

On top of it all, your purchase benefits CANCER RESEARCH, you can go home knowing you have helped out…even a little, it adds up!”

“Great little place to find those treasures you didn't know you needed at very affordable prices. Clean, organized, friendly faces, prices that can't be beat and the money spent goes to a valuable cause. It's rare I leave empty handed!”

“we went here on tuesday for help for our utility bill and everyone there was very helpful and the thift store was very nice alot better then paying 30-40 bucks for a blanket they had 5 bucks blankets very reasonable prices.”

“I hadn't shopped at this thrift store for a bit of time.. I was very fortunate to have been there on the day a sales associate by the name of Dana was on sfaff. She had answers for all my questions, and was so helpful .. You could tell it wasn't her 1st rodeo. IMO. she's a valuable employee, great work ethics.”

“I love 2nd Impressions! I stop in at least once a month to buy books for my classroom and occasionally some clothes for me. The clothes are a little higher priced than I'd like, but I can't complain about book prices... only 50 cents for paperbacks! Twice in the last year, I've come in on a BOGO Free day for books. Walked out with 8 books for $2. Can't beat that! All the interactions I've had at the register have been super friendly. One lady who works the register was a teacher, and she loves seeing which books I picked out for my classroom.”

“I love Costco. You will find no better place for prescription meds and eyeglasses. I am a single retiree and I still go at least once a month. No better place for paper products and good coffee.”

“I like the west main goodwill, the best, because it has a big selection of glass, jars and vases and other glasswares well as furniture and a good selection of field lights and electronics really priced. It's better than the Yale cat location by far. I appreciate the goodwill because they have very nice glass for affordable. Cheap pricing.Thank you, goodwill,”

“I hadn't been to this goodwill in a while.decided it was time to try it again.I was so so happy I stopped!! They changed the place around and it looks TERRIFIC! and they had a WONDERFUL SELECTION OF CLOTHES.whatever your doing to this place KEEP UP THE WONDERFUL WORK.i will DEFINITELY BE COMING BACK!!!!! PLAN on telling all my friends to come and check it out!!!!! VERY NICE PEOPLE BEHIND THE COUNTER ALSO!!!!!!!”

“I've volunteered here off and on for a total of about 10 years. I totally reccomend doing it for even just one day it is defiantly an eye opener and you will stop complaining and realize how blessed you are. These people have absolutely nothing and even if you give them an apple to eat they are so happy and grateful for even that. They have everything they own in a suitcase and backpack most of the time. It's sad but there's also hope because they are fed it will help them get back on track with life you can't survive without food water or shelter which the Gospel Mission provides all. Even if you have kids CPS approves it here so they will not get involved. We do not serve food we would not eat ourselves. It's not just cereal in the mornings sometimes eggs and sausage then they have an area for something sweet like a donut or muffin. They also have a coffee station for the adults and a filtered water area. Everyone I've volunteered with is super nice and I feel safe there even though its down town and everything they. have security and take measures in security. I would totally recommend volunteering here and even if you have kids old enough that you're sick of hearing complain about not having the new gaming system they want to take them here it'll defiantly make them shut up. Its a great experience sad but good reminds me I may not have the nicest car but I have a car I may not have all the things what I want but I have everything I need and not everyone has that.”
