I wasn’t sure what number of stars to give because every other time I’ve been (before the other night) was such an excellent experience! I always find amazing things for such a decent price. However, I was in there with my family two nights ago and the woman working treated me like I was literally in the act of shoplifting?? It was absolutely bizarre. I am a cat and crochet-loving social worker who would never dream of even leaving an article of clothing in the wrong place (only accidentally), much less steal from a local business?

Read moreFat rabbit, with it's shared space with Astro Black Records is truly superb in all aspects. The selection of clothes, house wares, and knick-knacks is entertaining and useful. The dressing rooms don't make you fell like someone is making a porno film of you changing. They are super comfortable and well executed. They have a pretty awesome selection of old books and stereo equipment as well. It's nice to go to a thrift shop where you don't have to sift through poop stained slacks and Hawaiian shirts to find some cool clothes. I highly...
