Free Store Wilkinsburg

"Drove an hour. Didn't know they weren't open for public when it says on Google it is. And the lady was very rude to us. Hurry up and pushed us out of there saying she would get into trouble us being there."

"The store is currently only open on Saturdays. Remember you may not come every week, eow to be fair. They have had some people take advantage and even steal from here in the past. Currently every other week, five items and a 15 min time limit are the constraints. Some items don't count, such as measuring spoons or books. Others may count as more than one. Another thing to remember is that women may not get men's clothing and the reverse. This is to help men actually get clothing that they may need. However as men often will or can not shop for themselves, it may cause a difficulty. But I think that if there is a problem and the store was contacted early in the week they might be able to accommodate the situation. Yes, I do know some women cannot or will not shop for themselves. Also, I do not know the store's policy regarding transgender or cross dressing individuals. If you think a difficulty may occur, I would check ahead of time, because you only have 15min."

"I was in there for less than 20 seconds and some old miserable lady with a stiff swoop in her nasty smelling hair put her hand in my face and told me to "stop right there" like she was a cop. Then told me that I'm not allowed in because it was donation day. I did not know that because I've never been there. But she gave me a little too much attitude for me just opening the door. Then all the other miserable old ladies in the back just watched and giggled."

"I shopped here for myself and I got things from the mens section and I was told I can’t get because I am not a man which is not reasonable because I wear mens clothing, I was actually wearing mens clothing when I went in and she told me the rules didn’t apply and I couldn’t get. I said they’re unisex and I said how do you know I’m not a man? Not ever coming back horrible experience not worth it."

"Lovely people accepting donations of clothing. A wonderful source for the community. Check drop off times & days on their website first. Limited times as they need more volunteers. Don't throw out good stuff. Donate, so others can use it!"
