I was thrilled to find a thrift store in BV and was not disappointed! You definitely have to spend some time digging through everything but it's worth it when you find an unexpected surprise. Fantastic bargains and a large variety of just about everything. Great place to thrift!

Can hardly be called a thrift store anymore.
Staff thunk people are stupid. I got 2 items. 1 for $10(already crazy for a thrift clothing item) and another for $4. The total was $15.14. Not only is the major price increase unessicary as they get these items for free but the dishonesty for the sake of greed is icky. I intentionally chose the $10 item over a similar item for $12 because of the price difference. If you can help it, stop supporting this business

Found a great little footstool for our fur baby. Just $3!

If you find an item that isn't priced, take a photo of it and show it to the cashier to get a verbal price.

We found staff to be personable, helpful, and friendly on our visit.

Wish they were open on Sundays and Mondays, but this is a volunteer project.

A true thrift store where you go for the low prices, not for"vintage" or "consignment" stuff. The last time I was in I got two bike helmets and a shovel for $9. Another time I found some beautiful original paintings; before that a nightstand and lamp for under $10. A great place run by very nice people.

I gotta admit, I'm pretty disappointed, a thrift store is a place people can shop who can't afford new stuff but now they are turning into main st. They used to be great, but I just left there after grabbing a couple curtains and they priced them at $8 a curtain! I can literally get brand new ones from Walmart for $10. Hopefully they will lower their pricing again for locals instead of pricing for tourists.

Cash only. It's a pretty standard thrift store, with the largest part being clothing, shoes, and accessories. There's also the kitchen and housewares sections. Clothes are sorted by sizes, but it's hit or miss heavier on senior clothing styles, but decent outdoor gear hidden among them. You can find quality name brand stuff for cheap if you have patience and stop in regularly. Most prices are posted on the wall or racks.

Before moving to BV I thrifted all the time. I’ve been in this thrift store twice and both have been terrible experiences.
The first time was last Summer when there were no mask mandates. I was hardly halfway through the door when a woman behind the counter snapped at me, “Where is your mask?” I left.
The second time was today after dropping off some things at their donation area. I sifted through frames to use the glass for a project and when I went to buy them I shared I’m going to use just the glass and found some without scratches. She aggressively stacked them on top of each other right after I said that.. then she said “$22. And we don’t take plastic. There’s an atm down the road.” I kindly told her I had added it up myself and that seemed more than I expected. I counted no more than $12-14 based on their posted pricing which already seemed expensive to me for very dusty broken frames. For $22 I can order brand new glass online. She didn’t use a measuring tape to appropriately price each frame and rounded up the odd sizes. I told her it was too much for me and left.
Browsing their baby and kids toys + clothes while I was there I would not recommend this place to anyone. And that’s coming from a thrift lover! Bummer.

Cash only. Prices were very fair, and they had a great selection of clothing, shoes, accessories, and home goods.
