I’m writing this review to express gratitude for the staff at this location. Probably the friendliest bunch of any local thrift chain or location in the Triangle. Only issue I have is I miss the Herman the Bullfrog song.

This place is a bit pricey--feels like they are competing with eBay prices. But I imagine the overhead for rent and labor gets expensive and its a good cause!

A large selection but everything was expensive for a thrift store. And the jewelry counter was a mess, things were turned over and thrown in so you couldn't even see what was in there. Products were dirty and there were a lot of broken items on the shelves. I was disappointed.
