For starters, I just purchased a cup TWO DAYS before I went to this store and it was in PERFECT CONDITION. (No leaks/ No dents/ No cuts/ No burns). When I go to the store and it’s time for me to leave and pay for my items, I accidentally left my cup at the cash register. A bit upset because I didn’t want to lose my brand new cup, especially knowing that I left it at a secondhand store. I call the store but I was already halfway home when I realized, and I live nowhere near close to the store. Eventually, I get in contact with them. At first, I was told that they didn’t see the cup, but I didn’t take that for an answer cause I eagerly wanted my cup back, knowing that was a spoon full of bull. But eventually, they told me they had the cup, and it was just a mistake or whatever. And I scheduled to pick it up the next day and when I receive my cup it has dents all over it. And now, suddenly, it’s leaking at the bottom it appears to me that the rubber that was underneath that cut the cup clothes was BURNT. I don’t know if the employees was upset that I wanted my cup back or whatever it was, but it was in poor care even when I came to pick it up the day after, and I am highly outraged about my new cup.

It's a nice store and most employees are nice. I found three things I wanted to buy, but they didn't have price tags. Cashier told me she couldn't sell them to me. Please make sure everything is priced or allow the Manager to put a price on it. Thanks.

This St. Vincent in Madison Wi Odana Rd. is absolutely wonderful. I have never had a bad experience. The employees are very helpful and truly pleasant. It is 30 minutes from me but well worth the trip. They have a wide variety of goods and a nice jewelry counter.

Thrift stores everywhere have gotten worse, but St. Vincent sticks out.There's simply no grounds for a pretense of such a store, and canned response of "we're trying to get the most donations" doesn't cut it.Way out of touch.Zero "thrift".You're better off going anywhere else and then donating with the savings.

Nice people and lots of stuff. Seems like lots of older clothes. which makes sense since it's a thrift store. I donate here very often.

I want to preface by saying this is a great store and I love the mission and the great work they do in the community. The team there is lovely and they have wonderful items. However, I do feel that the pricing at all St. Vinny's in the area has gotten incredibly high in recent years, particularly at their trunk shows. I work in fashion and appreciate that some of the items they feature at these trunk shows are worth a lot and should be priced accordingly. However, as an example, there are tons of dated Madewell and Anthropologie styles from several years ago priced at 32$ + a piece. I doubt they cost this much new given the frequent sales and promos of these stores. On a recent visit, a pair of well worn Lilly Pulitzer for Target pants were 29$ and a tired pair of Rag & Bone skinny jeans were 89$. I want to support Vinny's and am willing to pay up for high end items, but I think the store needs to curate these items more carefully if they are going to sell at these price points.

I called to donate a sofa, and even with some stains, was a pretty good one. The two carries come and said they can not take. It's ok. Them I ask a favor to help put the sofa on the sidewalk, wich will take 5 minutes if all that... look, I didn't ask for they to put, just to help me. And so they say they don't offer this "service". I TRIED one last time ask for help because I was alone. And they simple ignore me...So I'm not a Christian but I was for some time and I know the history of St Vicent of Paul. He dedicated his life in help the other... not for money... just following christ himself. Back in Brazil my father work for st vicent organization and I remember he aways helping people, even if there's no money or use for that furniture, just because he doesn't feels right leaving people suffer.I move this whole 3 sits couch alone and this raining weather, but I will make sure to tell everyone I know how St Vicent in Madison is not about helping the others... is more about individualism and make money.Shame of you, I hope someday you guys go back to chrust path wich is HELPING PEOPLE.

Convenient location. Lot of variety in every section. Good selection. Clothes for kids and women are good. Winter wear is good. Handbag collection is well maintained. Household items like drinkware is very nice. Seasonal items are well displayed. Friendly and helpful staff. Men’s coats are good.

Update October 2022: Store now opens at 10am, making banker's hours look like full service. Still the occasional deal/steal but even most clothing is becoming unreasonably priced, making Goodwill look competitive. STVDP was once my favorite thrift store and a a highlight for visiting Madison.. not really the case any longer.Prices on furniture went from reasonable to astronomical after the renovation. Still a lot of variety but be prepared to pay for it.

Paulie the Parakeet? More like Poorly the Parakeet, as it is really poorly (sick). This is Saint Vinnys dark secret.There has been news of a dead parakeet inside the Saint Vinnys staff room. It looks barely 2 weeks old and is lay on a bed of Christmas lights with no form of food or water to be seen within its desolate cage.To think that the staff share all their joyous smiles and hearty laughs over their sandwiches at dinner, with a dead little baby budgie rotting in the corner.It sickens me to think these people walk amongst humans whilst they are monsters. I hope you enjoy the smell of rotting bird with your egg and cress sandwich.
