Thrift Stores in Waite Park, MN

“Love,love,love this store. The staff are amazing and so sweet. I personally only shop 2 thrift stores, wacosa and another in Princeton. The variety of items in the store is plentiful. I will only donate to wacosa, not any other thrift store in st cloud. 2 reasons why.. the friendly welcome you recieve, and I know the money they make goes to a good cause. So many people don't know about wacosa so anyone I meet I always encourage them to go and to also donate. This is the one store that when I donate brand new clothes, purses or items with tags on them they are so appreciative. Plus, it makes me feel good.
As for the couple who felt harassed about their tattoos and such. I have never had that experience. I am covered in tattoos, colored hair and piercings and have never been treated poorly. I have been coming here for years and the employees start to feel like friends. They are so busy working they don't have time to follow people around. I'm not saying it didn't happen, but I guarantee that if this happened she is probably no longer employed there. Btw...discount days are great. Nice quality items for such a great discount. Keep up the good work ladies and I will see you soon.”

“I always enjoy stopping by the Treasure Chest! They have great prices and a fun variety of unique finds, especially when it comes to children’s items and clothing — I’ve found so many cute, high-quality pieces here. I also wanted to comment on the staff, since I noticed some reviews mentioning negative experiences. I’ve been here many times and interacted with several different staff members, and every experience I’ve had has been positive. They’ve always been kind, friendly, and helpful, making the store feel welcoming. I’ll definitely continue to stop by and support this wonderful local shop while searching for new hidden gems! ?”

“I really like this goodwill. I would specifically recommend it to college students working on outfitting their new dorm or apartment with kitchenware, because you can get very high quality stuff for great prices. My girlfriend and I have acquired most of the pieces to a $300 set of plates, bowls, etc. for under $30. Their inventory is fast-changing, so it's a fun place to stop in fairly often and see what they've got. It has a nicer, less dingy feel to it than Saver's.”
