Mel Trotter Ministries Thrift Store

"This place has a reputation for being a little more expensive than other thrift stores in the area, but it’s only by a dollar or so for their clothing. Everything else is pretty comparable in price to goodwill, and they do offer coupons and a rewards program, which helps. They have a better selection of stuff and I’m able to find a lot more of what my kids need here, which makes up for the price IMO. The staff has always been nice as well, and their place is clean. No complaints here!"

"Even though the money is for good cause I feel there are many overpriced items. These are used items, some used more than others. Some may be new as well. Those that are should be new item prices. However those gently used and used items should not be. I do find some good deals in there on the rare occasions I make it into Belding and stop in so therefore I will shop again. The cause is good."

"The store is clean and well organized. Aisles are wide enough. The products are fairly priced. The money we spend here goes to a good cause."

"First of all the prices are absolutely ridiculous! Apparently they are not interested in moving their items. Wouldn’t it be better to make some money on an item instead of it just sitting there???? And to top it off when I was checking out I found a chip out of one of the pieces. The girl had tallied it up but I hadn’t given her my money yet. She wouldn’t remove the $5.99 from my bill. I hadn’t paid yet & I felt like saying forget it, keep everything. I didn’t. Just decided I will NEVER go to that place again. Go ahead and play the Christian music throughout your store, and have Ministries in your title. As far as I’m concerned, Christian or ministry is not what your store is about. It’s very sad to think you could do so much for people but are obviously unwilling to."

"I remember the first we got MTM! Was a joke! Got Goodwill back and then they left. Mel Trotter Ministries came back with a much improved selection, setup, prices etc. Don't even think about going to Goodwill anymore!"
