The Salvation Army El Cajon Corps

They have a lunch line in their cafeteria. The food is low priced for seniors. Good healthy food.

Organization that has been helpful to the needy and many others ( including myself) for a long time. I'm grateful to them for all they do in the community of mankind.

When I'm in the mood for Thrift Store hunt, i rarely ever visit The Salvation Army. I finally stopped at this location in town - Main St., El Cajon, CA. I believe they may be short staffed, not much organization, could use more lighting as the store is dark and maybe conserving electricity. It could also use some cleaning, paint the walls, racks, floor, make it look a bit more tidy and bright. I understand that it's mostly junk, treasures to others, but these retail thrift stores must follow certain codes to maintain the safety and cleanliness for the public.

Some thrift stores have gotten WAY out of hand. Goodwill, for one is not even worth going to anymore. What do they pay for the merchandise they sell? NOTHING! But that hasn't stopped those greedy jerks from jacking up the prices they charge. And don't try to BS me with "oh, but they do so much 'good' for the community". So what? That doesn't justify getting donations and then charging so much for stuff!! As for the Salvation Army, well, they're somewhat better as far as prices go. Sometimes you can find good selection of things, depending on the particular store. It's nice when you come across something unexpected, something you want but maybe hadn't thought about. That's one of the thrills of shopping at thrift stores. But, the best thrift stores to shop at, for price and selection, go to a more local place.
