A couple years ago I would've said this was among my favorite thrift shops in the Fox Valley area. But the last couple years the prices on their products have become disgustingly high - way past anything else in the area(even antique malls that have vendors that scalp thrift shops for product). I'm writing this from the parking lot after my fourth visit in a row of not buying anything because of the gouging that has happened, I found the following prices on items I might've purchased for THRIFT prices:
Ninja coffee pot: $99.99 (another coffee pot of a lesser brand was STILL $49.99, for a SECOND HAND COFFEE POT) Portable dvd player: $30 1960s Typewriter: $74.99 (I collect typewriters, NO typewriter is worth more than $20 unless it has been gone through and serviced by a professional) Console Record Player: $174.99 (again, this needs to be serviced to be anywhere near this value)
Ignoring that they won't budge on some products that sit for over a YEAR (an organ they were trying to sell for eBay prices, think $300), these were just the examples I saw today.
Whoever sets their prices is absolutely out of their mind, and I won't be going there anymore. It's simply a waste of time to do a lap around and see prices that I wouldn't even pay for perfect-condition items. Get real. You are not a boutique shop, you're a thrift shop.

LOTS of us count on the websites for hours of operation because we drive from...
Read moreEver since the ownership change this store has been in shambles. Extremely unpleasant workers will berate you for doing the simplest things. Along with this, the selection is limited when compared to nearby thrift stores. Many clothes have holes in them, and there is mice feces strewn about the floor. Overall a very disappointing experience, and I’d advise against...
