Savers — Attraction in Woonsocket

You can find some really great used items at savers. Over the years ive gotten amazing deals. Northface jacket for 10 bucks. Under armour sweatshirt, 7$. 2 pairs of boots plus 1 pair of shoes, 18$ total. They have cute little knick nacks, glassware, furniture, books, toys, literally think about going around your house and getting rid of random things, used toaster ovens and blenders, TONS of clothes. The baby and toddmer clothes are especially great because they outgrow clothes so quick, a lot if it is very lightly used. You can save hundreds and hundreds if you buy furniture there. Sometimes stuff is in bad shape honestly but its priced accordingly. Pants are stained? Well they cost 3$, if you like them grab them and try to get the stain out. I got my little one a used DVD player. They have a good amount of electronics, speakers and stuff like that. You just cant beat the prices, i especially love looking at the knick nacks when you walk into the store and go to the left, they are in the first few isles. You can find meaningful, special gifts for people! Overall, its a great secondhand store with items generously priced, according to their wear and tear. Also!!!! Almost forgot...when you donate stuff, they give you a coupon for 20% off your entire order. So, you save even more on top of already saving a bunch. Love savers! Highly...

I often checked in here, and had been for awhile now, anytime I had passed by and had an hour or so to spare, to poke around, bc they get stuff in, priced, and out daily, so I'd check in often. They have a great selection of books, kids toys, clothes for everyone, a decent knick knack and housewares section. The furniture area is often messy tho. But, besides that, it used to be an absolute fav of mine. The prices used to perfect.... However...

The last time I was there, tho, I noticed the prices have gone up QUITE a BIT, and when I thought about it, I wondered if it was bc there was a 50% Off sale coming up (when I worked at a Savers in the past, not this one, they would tell us, as pricers, to remember that the half off sale was in 3 weeks, 2wks, etc, to go higher than usual with the pricing), and sure enough, the following week, a 50% sale was happening. This was the first time I had noticed this in this particular Savers. I've honestly been back only once since then. It's such a huge turn off to find any store doing that, but especially when it's a thrift shop doing this. The very idea of the 50% sale, is to get a great deal! When they jack up the price so much so, that a shopper has to wonder if a half off sale is close, that's absurd. So, ya, I have been completely disappointed...

I rarely write a review but I am really frustrated with this store. I have made MANY donations here since they opened and I supply them with gently used designer clothing... kids and adults. The only thing that gets me taking a look inside is the coupon I get for my donation. We usually just buy kids books, and sometimes look at the toys, and maybe kids clothes. I saw a decent pair of Gap toddler pants but with stains on them, and they were $8. Huh? I get new ones in this price range as Gap has great sales all the time. The prices on everything, including the books keep going up and up. Now that the tax laws have changed, I will likely just drop my designer items in the drop boxes all over the place and skip the drive. I also agree with the other reviewers that the place needs a good cleaning as it smells really bad and there's dust all over the place. The bathroom was so disgusting (wouldn't have even gone in there but it was an emergency for my toddler son). It hasn't been cleaned in many months. VERY frustrated with this Savers... CLEARLY VERY GREEDY MANAGEMENT... may not return. I'd give this location one star but the people who work at the donation area are always nice (hence...
