Value Village, a Savers brand, is a for-profit, global thrift retailer offering great quality, gently used clothing, accessories, and household goods. Their Rethink Reuse® business model of purchasing, reselling, and recycling gives communities a smart way to shop and keeps more than 700 million pounds of used goods from landfills each year. They also help over 100 nonprofit organizations by purchasing donated goods, providing revenue to support their vital community programs and services. Value Village operates over 300 locations with 20,000 employees across the U.S., Canada, and Australia. Customers have found good items at Value Village, though some note the lack of returns and higher prices compared to elsewhere. Many appreciate the wide variety of amazing, valuable, and super-bargain finds, like a hockey hat at half the price of a new one. Employees, like Aron, have also been praised for their helpfulness. Overall, Value Village provides a generally great shopping experience, despite the occasional odd chemical smell in the stores and a wild, nonsensical parking lot.
