Thrift Stores in Olympia, WA

“This is the place to save money on all kinds of paper crafting and needlework supplies. The specialty is "used" supplies, but the more honest description is leftover or forgotten. For example, in the yarn department you can find a partial skein of wool or enough to knit or crochet a queen-size blanket. The amounts and types of supplies depend on what customers have brought in to exchange for a discount. The store always has a steady supply of quilting fabric and paper goods. With prices rising for hobby goods, Lost & Found is a break for bargain shoppers who come back a few times to find exactly what they need. The owner and staff are helpful and are willing to brainstorm with customers over the creation of new projects from classic (or leftover) supplies.”

“Very friendly bar with low priced drinks, be aware that is a membership bar so you either have to be a member or know a member that can sign you in. They have events almost every week and karaoke every Friday and have dances upstairs multiple times a week on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Dances you don't have to be a member and pay a small entry fee.”

“The shop is a vibe. Good selection of options someone fashionable would be able to put toughen & made cute. Not I, though I did find a killer hat. I'll be back. It's 10/10 a suggestion, why not it's too coolest to check out.”

“Wonderful selection of smart clothes that you can get for cheap because second hand. I got two coats which were in excellent condition and good value. I also found very good purses and exquisite condition shoes. The clothes can be tried on for size and fit. The staff have obviously curated these clothes pretty well because they are in very good shape and look elegant and smart. The racks are just small enough to make it easy to rifle through. This experience constrasts with the general Goodwill stores' warehouse style presentation, which is impossible to deal with because volume overwhelms quality. Blue sifts through the volume of second hand donated clothes to curate a high-quality selection. The service staff were quirky and sweet. I took advantage of the $10 discount offer for people who sign up to their Blue list, and for the birthday month. I would highly recommend shopping here, because this is one of the BEST thrift stores I have ever been to.”

“I have been shopping at this thrift store for over 20 years. I want to express my appreciation for the older volunteers who despite aching bodies continually dedicate themselves to working freely and generously. Thank you.”

“I bought a kitchen hutch here recently and Mariah and Theo were such an incredible help!I can not express the gratitude I hold for these two people helping me figure out how to transport this giant thing. They had such amazing hospitality and were ready to help with answering my questions before I bought it, making me comfortable with my purchase, as well as everything after!10/10 give them both a raise!”

“My shopping experience today at Goodwill on the west side of Olympia made my whole holiday season bright. Thanks to Tiffany, who was polite, went out of her way to go the extra mile for the sake of customer service, very patient, as well as an adept communicator! I could not find the match to a beautiful leopard print Van’s shoe, and got so sad and overwhelmed thinking I would have to leave without them. She searched the entire store, men’s & women’s sections on her own accord, even though it was a bustling Saturday. She took the time to search behind the register, and was reassuring as she could see I was getting sad and letting the realization settle in. I searched again the entire store and then fully realized I would have to buy my sweater and leave. All of a sudden she found me and said that she thinks she had found the match after a second look behind the counter, and I seriously cried tears of joy. My shopping experience was far supreme to the likes of Nordstrom or Barney’s and I feel overwhelmed with gratitude. I am very thankful for Tiffany and her tenacious customer service, kindness, and willingness to believe. That is what this time of year is about. I have hope because of her relentless positivity and care! I also found a rad pair of Adidas for my husband which she was willing to hold for me while I did a mad dash searching every nook and cranny. So refreshing to not have to buy new trainers & feel wholeheartedly inspired and refreshed by my purchase & experience.”

“Most all of the Goodwills up in he PNW are quite similar. Prices can be too high for what it is, but all is priced well here for the most part. .Check out staff are always friendly and professional. Shelves tend to be organised well.”
