Absolutely unbelievable the prices in here. They get items for free and will charge more than a dollarstore for a literal dollarstore item. They sell at full retail or higher value. Insane!

I thought the sign out front read thrift store…Diapers more expensive than in a retail store, winter jackets at retail price, single dish cloths for 2-5$ and jewelry reaching $1000, selling dollarama marked times for 2-3x the price.ALL employees are volunteers so no wages to cover. Just the “good” old church robbing you blind. Surprise surprise. And when you brought it to their attention that an item is ABOVE retail you are simply told to leave.I’m sure the ones who donated to help people out would be very disappointed to see what they are charging people.

Wow! This is as good a Thrift store as we’ve ever been in. Super clean, incredibly organized and tons of very cool stuff too. The staff was helpful and had all the time in the world for us even tho they were busy helping others. They explained how the auctions work and where to find things in the store. Awesome place and we will be back,Andrew

Hands down one of the best kept secrets in Barrie as far as thrift stores are concerned. The option of bidding on items they auction off is great. The thing that sets this place apart from the rest of the thrift stores is the quality of items, the pricing of items and the cleanliness of the store and items for sale. They simple are on top when it comes to all 3.

I love this thrift store, always clean and tidy, always find something I love. Staff are sometimes a little off, but they're all volunteers, so I'm glad they came to work today!

I normally take my donations to value villiage. I decided to take them to Missions instead. The older tall man with beard was not friendly and I felt like I was inconveniencing him. I won’t be back with my donations.

I enjoy thrift stores and frequent all of them atleast once a month but I have been disappointed the last few times I went, today being most recent. Their pricing has gone up ridiculously over the last year or so. Especially when it comes to children's clothes. 3 dollars for a single pair of infant/toddler socks. 5+ dollars for shirts and pants. I left today without getting anything. I spoke to them previously about the pricing of the clothes and asked about what they are doing for the community but was not given any insight. I stopped going for several months until today and I'm just disappointed.

This Mission Thrift store is my "go to" when ever I am looking for treasures. The staff are all volunteers and I am impressed with how many are working. They offer their time to serve customers from all walks of life, and have always been helpful, kind and courteous to me. I have read some negative reviews below and I am shocked at how petty some of them are. This store is clean, bright, organized, the prices are great, it is a thrift store, and all proceeds go to help others. If I have come across two items priced differently, I bring it up to the cash, they always honour the lower price. I love donating here as well. When they have enough staff they do go through my donation, and will let me know if it is acceptable. (the Salvation Army Thrift store does the same) I totally understand. They want to recycle gently used, not someones garbage. Be kind to the staff, they are 100% volunteers, most seniors and they do a great job repairing electronics, cleaning glasses, eye wear, organizing the isles. Keep up the awesome work Mission Thrift Store volunteers! you ladies and gentlemen are AWESOME!!

If you look you may find some great things. I found 3 pairs of shoes same price. When I got to counter I was told the tagg was switched.. they have cameras. You can see I didnt and when I went and got 3 other samepairs with the same price they didnt want to hear it. if ur employees arent doing there job right thats not on me. Done. I'm so done with this store accusing people of stealing or anything and then to tell me I shouldn't shop there anymore I'll be calling the bbb and owners. Call it a Christian store I've yet to see 1 christian thing being done. Just treating people like thieves. Ur done for me. I used to shop here all the time. I'll be telling everyone I know about my multiple experiences here like when my son threw up on himself so I took tags to the front paid went and changed him and when I left I was followed and accused of stealing. Again infrint of multiple cx . Get together. You have lost 6 cx now.

The staff are very friendly and usually I come away with few treasures. We always donate to this store and are usually very happy. But today was very busy and there only one change room being used. After waiting around for the change room for 20 minutes I had to leave. But I left empty handed and feeling very frustrated! Upon mentioning it to the cash staff I was told Value Village had no change rooms anymore. Really? Is this what you want people to compare this store to? Fine, I realize clothing walks out of the door sometimes, but where do you get the clothing in the first place? From us, your customers!Thank you for letting me vent!

It's a great place to shop! Their prices are fair, especially on the clothing, but the furniture prices are a little steep. The staff are very friendly too!
