I’ve always had a good experience shopping here. They typically have a ton of furniture there!

Had several items I wanted to purchase as well as a vintage piece that had no price. After having to search around for an actual employee since no one was at the register I asked if I could get a price on unmarked item. Guy informed me that there were other pieces in the back that went with the item and that’s why it hadn’t been priced yet. He retrieved the other accessories from the back and when I asked again for a price he said he would have to look it up online to determine price and value. I told him I was interested in purchasing now and was told he didn’t have time to look now even though there were several people working an only one other customer. Needless to say I put all the items I had intended to purchase back on the shelf since no one seemed to have any interest in actually making a sale. Will not be back Edit to add response to owners reply: I do not “feel that I had a bad shopping experience.” It was a bad shopping experience. I understand that a piece was accidentally put on the floor. However, when I asked you about it, your exact response was “I need to look it up on the internet to see what it is worth.” You then proceeded to bring out all the other parts for me to see. When I again asked you for a price, you pulled out your phone to look it up but then said you did not have time and would not be able to give me a price today. That is ridiculous. It would have taken you a few minutes to research the piece and determine a fair price. However, it is obvious that you had other intentions. Additionally, this is a non profit organization thrift store. You should not be so greedy. Responding as though you did nothing wrong here, is also wrong. Letting this negative review stand for all to see, will hopefully make you will think before you attempt such shenanigans with another customer.

Always find great deals. My neighbor was manager there and my family also gave great donations for years. Unfortunately the new management is very abrupt, need lessons in customer service. Jessica has been very helpful and I only continued shopping and donating because of her kindness. Recently the woman manager disgraced a homeless man because he had a voucher of some sort for clothes but did not have his size. She embarrassed him in front of everyone. Cost me $20 that I felt I should give the man to shop elsewhere for pants. She is a disgrace. I will shop at the New Port Richey store because of it.

Really organized and most items there are in good condition. The staff normally is friendly but today I donated some items and a man whom I haven’t seen there before, was a bit scary and extremely rude. I almost put my items back into my car and left which in hindsight I should have. But, I don’t feel comfortable going back now and will be donating elsewhere.
