Eco Thrift Pomona — Attraction in Pomona

Checked out Eco Thrift. Formally veterans thrift store. Building size would be considered medium to small. Now occupancy is limited to 73 people. One out then one in process. Expect to wait anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes before getting in. There seems to be a line all the time. Their moto is to move inventory fast to make room for new items. Large selection of clothing and shoes (only 1 shoe us on the shelf. The cashier will retrieve its mate). The carry books and records. No fitting room at this time. The wall is opened to the adjoining building. On that side they carry your household items, sporting goods & electronics. There is a collectible display section. Items stacked on the shelves behind the display cases. These items are shown by the attendant one item at a time. Your selection here are held until you are up front checking out. The cashier will have your selection(s) brought to the cashier. It does seem the majority of people inside doing their shopping can care less about social distancing. Blocking of the Isles was a common thing. They offer colors for the day with discounts varying from 25% to 75% off. Signs are posted up front to get you started. Parking is limited on the street in front and a 2 hour limit. They do have parking on the side of the building. Which is not handicap friendly. There is a parking lot in the rear of the building. Back parking lot is not handicap friendly either. Because you have to maneuver over some uneven surfaces coming out of the lot. With no sidewalk you will be in the street against the curb navigating to the front of the building. Pricing is good and with the markdowns. It makes things a...

Hello everyone! WORTH THE READ!!!!!!

SO.... I HAVE BEEN COMING TO THIS THRIFT STORE FOR YEARS NOW HOW EVER THE NEW STAFF FOR THE PAST YEAR OR SO HAS BEEN EXTREMELY RUDE TO ALL THE CUSTOMERS. I KEEP TRYING TO GO BACK BUT IT SEEMS LIKE THE STAFF KEEP GETTING RUDE AND UNPLEASANT TO BE AROUND. I USUALLY GO BY MYSELF BECAUSE I AM A TRUE THRIFTAHOLIC; HOWEVER I HAVE TAKEN MY SON A FEW TIMES AND EVERY TIME HE GOES WITH ME HE WHINES A LITTLE I SWEAR TO YOU THE EMPLOYEES HAVE TOLD ME TO SHUT MY SON UP AT LEAST 3 TIMES ALSO THEY GOSSIP ABOUT HIM CRYING. C'MON NOW THEY ARE PROBABLY MOTHERS ( ALL KIDS CRY AT SOME POINT) BY NOW I AM REALLY FED UP WITH THE EMPLOYEES HERE. ANOTHER INCIDENT WAS WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO TRY A DRESS ON THEY SAID THEY HAD TO CLOSE THE FITTING ROOM HOWEVER THE EMPLOYEE WAS IN THE FITTING ROOM TALKING ON HER PHONE. I THINK AFTER GIVING SO MANY TRIES HERE FOR YEARS I WILL TAKE MY BUSINESS ELSE WHERE SINCE THE RUDE INAPPROPRIATE STAFF AND MANAGER (MEXICAN LADY WITH BLONDE HAIR THAT DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO DO HER MAKEUP) DO NOT KNOW A THING ABOUT CUSTOMER SERVICE.

Next best thing since sliced bread .... Not.... Went here for the first time today. I usually go to the San Bernardino one because I never knew this one was even here. Upon arrival I had to circle around the blocks for about 20 minutes to find parking... Finally one of the spots on the side of the building became available. Be careful backing out of those spots as it can mess up your front end. The car next to me was backing out and I could hear her front end scrapping the pavement. Anyways onto the actual store. They have some decent prices and some ridiculous prices I guessing depending on who feels like over pricing things that day. The place was so jam packed could barely walk the isles or look through the clothes. Baskets literally blocking the ends of the Isles. Dont even think about going to the back left where people are trying on clothes and blocking your way. Was very unpleasant shopping environment. Would I return heck no. This place is ridiculous. Also apparently there is a whole side of the store that I didnt get to see from the pictures im seeing online. That part of the store with household goods was nowhere to be found. I...
