Savers — Attraction in Fairview Heights

Pricing anymore is outrageous! Selling Walmart brand stuff that is very obviously pretty worn for next to the same price as new at Walmart if not .30 more. Or you find two of the same shirt in the same size and condition and one is marked up a dollar twenty more. I was a religious shopper/ donor but after seeing prices for thrifting around at other stores I probably won’t be back to savers until they can get their pricing right, specifically for children’s clothes and shoes. You can get a onesie for $1.50 at once upon a child in WAY BETTER CONDITION and you guys are asking 2.50+ for a BABY ONESIE with stains or a hole in it. why would I DONATE my stuff for someone to buy at a thrift price just for you guys to mark it way higher than I would ask at a yard sale or something. ITS LITERALLY FREE USED DONATED STUFF and you guys want to get rich off it. Honestly sad. Oh and my coupon wouldn’t work because it said I already used it which is impossible as I dropped off my donation last time and got my voucher and left this was the next trip I planned using it but she said I did already and last time that happened the worker was kind enough to let me get another one. Honestly just go to the toco shop or community kindness, much better prices. Shame on...

This Thrift store is RIDICULOUSLY overpriced! Even if they did accept returns, Which they don’t.. The items are still not worth it ! People go to thrift stores to save money not spend it all as if we were shopping at a regular retail store!

I also learned from a previous employee that not only does this thrift shop treat employees bad.. They also sort through all the real quality jewelry in the back give it to a manager and sell it out of store for MORE money!! I’ve only ever found 1 real jewelry piece that was in the case for $200! That’s terrible! Some people are allergic to costume and come to thrift to hopefully find the quality items cheaper all they have is color...

If you are coming to this store in search of valuable items in the media category (books, vhs, video games, records) don't bother. I have witnessed the employee that stocks this section of the store routinely hand items to a customer that is also his close friend.

This employee will look up items on ebay, text photos of these items to his friend, and then hold them Until his friend shows up at which time he will roll out his cart and hand them over.

After discussing the situation with the store manager multiple times this continues to occur on a daily basis. Everything of any value never sees the shelf. Keep in mind that these are items that used to be priced accordingly and placed in the case at the front of the store that are now likely being priced at $1.99-2.99 which is costing the...
