Kiwanis Marketplace — Attraction in Cave Creek

I would have to say the majority of the folks working at Kiwanis are very unfriendly people. Today, I decided to retry shopping at the store. 50% off framed artwork was the sale that the store was running. I picked up a framed piece of stain glass art. Get up to counter and the checker very rudely says this piece is not considered framed art. So I said,"How can stain glass not be considered art and this piece is framed and I found this piece with all the other framed art." Nope, not considered art or framed art. So, the checker calls the manager. The manager was just as persnickety as the Checker. (You know the blonde gal that wears the cowboy hats that thinks she is the bomb) Yes that manager, is extremely rude. I ended up leaving the store and told the checker to put all my other items back.. I choose to shop at places that the folks are friendly and a store that honors its sale items. That piece of stain glass was framed and stain glass is considered an art form. Please consider changing the signs. Your wording is confusing. Or at least put on items that your are not considering for your sale that those items are full price. ...

Thrifting is a lot like panning for gold. Some streams are better than others, and Kiwanis is consistently one of the best!

They get a lot of donations, and sell through quite a lot of merchandise, which means there's always something cool and new to see. The furniture selection is almost always awesome, like really really good, and they always have a HUGE amount of housewares and knick knacks to choose from.

What makes them stand out to me is the people. Every one there is awesome! Especially Glenn or rather uncle Glenn. He always has a treat your your furry friends, and his welcome and smile at the front door truly makes you feel... welcome.

The hospitality of this place makes you feel at home every time you walk in the door; it's a true...

There’s always interesting stuff and the prices are fantastic. I come here for this reason. What makes this place very unattractive for me is the volunteers. They come off as judgmental and do not treat all demographics with equal kindness. For example, I was looking at an item, when a male worker with a male customer decide to stand directly in front of me, cutting me off completely and clearly, and did not acknowledge my presence in the slightest. I couldn’t help but be super irritated… I can understand how this sort of interaction could be viewed as acceptable in a point in time, but it is 2021 and this behavior is no longer ok. Kiwanis, please consider training your volunteers with more awareness and regard...
