Thrift Center Thrift Store 1060 El Camino Real, San Carlos, CA 94070

"They get everything for free and sell it at an unfair price!!!! I wonder who they help in the community with all the money they make? Way over priced and I will never drop anything off here again. Id rather give it to someone in need for free! Shut this place down!!!"

"Items are not thrift store prices in general. First good item I seen was an ottoman that had dirt on it priced at 50.99. Finally found a good thrift store priced item (a floor lamp) priced $15.99 I am excited about this excellent and rare find in this ’thrift center’. Also, found a John Daily Golf Towel at $3.99 and a Christmas Ornament at $1.99, so those were decent. Once it came time to check out, the lady called the manager on the walkie talkie bc she didn’t like the price they set it at. A man came and said yeah this is wrong and they claimed someone changed the price. I realize that people do that sometimes, and by claiming that in the front of the store despite the tag being in perfect shape. i was pretty embarrassed… so I proceeded to point out to them, and other customers that were listening..that the tag was in perfect condition and has not been tampered with and that it’s their fault they priced it at what they did. Long story short…They said no, and doubled the price on me. I still purchased it bc I explained to them that I thrift every day and do this for work and that I will not be back bc this is not a nice or fair way of doing business."

"My absolute favorite thrift store on the Peninsula, been coming regularly for almost two decades and have found amazing treasures over the years. I now do a lot of upcycling projects so I get a lot of materials from here, including things like old cotton sheets and linens (which a lot of thrift stores don't even carry anymore). Staff is super nice even on sale weekends when the place is bumping, so please be patient and polite with them!"

"Friendly staff, decent collection, some days are better than other but gotta do that treasure hunting. Some days even got half off certain color-tags or items, bingo! The parking sometimes can be annoying but not the store’s fault, just stupid drivers. I shop and donate here quite often, gotta reuse-reduce-recycle !"

"Loved the store so much. A lot of cool items come and go. Very organized and easy to find stuff. I got a dress, a top and a men's shirt for $12. It was a 50% off day. Will be there again."
