The Salvation Army Family Store & Donation Center — Local services in Clinton

This store used to be really great but has steadily gone downhill the last few years. I used to shop here at least once a week and always found tons of stuff. A few years ago the prices started rising, the inventory was lacking and employees were less and less friendly. Now the employees are outright rude and act annoyed that customers are even there. The store is always a mess and very unorganized, employees just sit in chairs on their phones, or in the back loudly talking about items they are taking home and filling totes with stuff in plain view of customers. On numerous occasions I've seen employees loading totes, bags or boxes full of items into their cars. Shopping here used to be one of the highlights of my week, now I have to talk myself into going and most of the time I leave empty handed and feeling really disheartened that this store has been run into the ground.

Changing rooms are OPEN! 👏 Some items are priced a tad high but most are not. Always good finds here! Last night I bought a cute pair of jeans for $8. I checked the zipper lock & it worked well keeping the zipper up-top as it should. However, I didn't see a couple patches on some serious thigh burnouts until I got them home after purchase. Disappointed that someone would even have donated them. They're garbage. I'll make sure to look things over more thoroughly in the future. Items are not returnable. People, please stop donating garbage here. Spare me the trouble of wasting $8. Thanks! Shoppers, just look over your items well, prior to purchasing. Great finds can be found at...
