Community Aid is my go-to thrift store. It's clean and very organized. I found a storage unit to use for my sewing supplies for $6. If I had bought the same thing new ot would have cost about $40. I can always find something there.

This used to be such a nice place to shop. The workers handled our donated stuff like garbage. He tossed a box of housewares 6 feet into a bin that he could have walked over to. VHS tapes have been removed from the accepted items list, yet they are for sale in the store for 5 dollars. The organization in the glassware section has gone terribly downhill. They used to sort by color but now it's whatever. The bin of picture frames is gone and now there's just a few expensive frames against the wall. I can't speak for the clothing, but considering that my mother and sister leave empty handed so often, I'm thinking that the prices aren't very good there. I know with all the inflation and stuff, but this is a donation store. All the items come in for free. Goodwill's prices aren't even as outrageous. I'd say just go to the Goodwill bins outlet on Lincoln Highway. I find much better stuff there anyway. The only reason I left 3 stars is because once in a while, there is something cool in the electronics section, like a pair of walkie talkies that are identical to the ones in Stranger Things (my sister's favorite show), but most of the time it's just jumbo-button landline phones and ethernet boxes. Not worth it anymore.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Are the items that I am donating sold at the store where I donate them to or they distributed to other stores. I only want to donate to the store in Lancaster and see my items for sale in there

Philip Miller | May 1, 2022
Ja Ochsenreiter | May 31, 2022

I don't know that but prices pretty much doubled since they opened. They saw some people were buying and reselling for a profit so they raised prices and made finding half price items much harder even for senior citizens which I thought wasn't nice at all. I presume everything stays here from what I've heard and seen since they opened. Might want to call them and ask.
