PRISM is a well-regarded food shelf and thrift store located in Minnesota, providing essential support to those in need. The food shelf offers a variety of options, including gluten-free items, and is accessible to anyone in the area. Many visitors express gratitude for the generosity of PRISM, noting that it has been a lifesaver during tough times, often providing more than enough food, including items for pets. The thrift store is praised for its organization and the kindness of the staff, who are described as genuinely sweet and helpful. While customers appreciate the wide selection, some reviews mention that the pricing on donated goods can be excessively high, which detracts from the overall experience. Weekly color tag sales offer more reasonable prices, but some customers feel that regular prices are not reflective of the charitable nature of the organization. Despite some concerns about pricing and occasional issues with crowding, the overall sentiment is positive, with many expressing thankfulness for the services PRISM provides to the community. The simple registration process and lack of judgment during visits make it a welcoming place for individuals seeking assistance.
Very good food shelf. They have gluten free food too. Anyone in MN can go there. I got tons of produce. I just didn’t like how people were pushing me away from food I was looking at and budging in front of me. My IHS worker also said someone interrupted when we were trying to talk to someone at the desk.

Ah as far as welfare and the common good Suppose that's the most efficient way to deliver hand chosen food items to the needy or stranded. J Norton.

When my expenses went up and what had to be cut was my food budget, a friend took me to Prism. It is a place I am truly grateful for. Thank you Prism.
