"A very amazing experience at this store. The owner was very friendly and gave us a great deal on a large volume of items my wife and i were purchasing. It was such a great deal we decided to buy more itms that she also gave us a great deal on. Don't let the outside of the place fool you. This place is a must stop for deal shoppers."

"Really nice person, seems like a cool business. The prices were pretty reasonable and everything was well organized and sorted neatly. The store seems mainly focused on the clothes, but there were some instruments (piano, midi controller, rough-looking violin), electronics, and some furniture."

"This is a dingy house that has items for sale all throughout it, lots of stacks of stuff. As I passed by one woman's jacket it was priced for $45 so doesn't seem that the prices here are typical thrift prices. Worse yet, as I was looking at things she was taking somebody's U-Haul reservation over the phone and was on speakerphone while a customer was giving all of his private details. After the first four credit card digits were said aloud and I realized she wasn't going to take it off speakerphone, I told her not to do that when anyone could hear it. She claims that she didn't know I was there even though I was 15 ft away from her counter looking at books and in her view. I told her I could hear the whole conversation from the other room before I even went in that front section so it wouldn't have mattered. So be wary of giving your info over the phone or somebody else could be hearing it and writing it down. (Also, most of the photos on Google are the old location. If you see a normal looking building with a paved parking lot, that is not the current location. The new one as of 2/2023 is an old house that has a bit of dirt parking in front.)"

"Edit: they moved locations! And it’s way more organized! A neat place to thrift shop! Honestly a really neat place! This is NOT your typical second hand store, be prepared to dig through piles of stuff, but i honestly had a fun time doing so. No telling what you’re going to find here! The owner was very kind as well! I would love to help organize the place a bit!"

"Cannot say anything about the u-haul as I only went for the thrift store. Didn't find anything I quite wanted to buy, but the place was nice. The outside looks kind of scary and sketchy with all sorts of beaten-up rained-on junk sitting around, but the inside looks great, and not at ALL like the photos from their old location. It reminds me a lot more of how thrift stores used to be, and the potential to find absolutely anything sitting in a stack on a shelf."
