The Salvation Army Thrift Store & Donation Center — Local services in Clovis

Frequent thrifter 🙋🏻‍♀️ I thrift for sustainability and high-quality fabrics like silk, linen, wool, and cashmere so it’s usually hit or miss for me. While $8–12 per item might seem high for a thrift store, depending on what you’re looking for, it can be more affordable than paying $100+ online—and supports a good cause here.

As others have mentioned, yes, you could find similar prices elsewhere like at Ross, but the quality may not compare. You’re more likely to find premium materials here, not just cheap polyester.

Pros: • Decent selection, relatively clean items • Friendly staff • Clothes are well-organized (by type and sometimes color) • Several new-with-tag items and variety of shoes • Found high-end pieces like a virgin wool cardigan ($10), silk dress ($4), designer blazer ($12) • Pricing on par with other thrift stores • Brands you’d typically see at Nordstrom Rack • Tip: All clothes are 50% off at the end of the month for 2-3 days • Daily restocking

Also, yes, some of their things are overpriced, but some of their stuff are really good deals. I found a decently nice blanket for $3, a fashionable dress for $8, and home decor at very reasonable prices. It really just depends what you're looking for, making sure to watch out for their deals as well. Definitely coming back in the...

I went today to this new place, everything there is expensive, and every time they have a sale on certain color tag, that tag is no where to be found, also, I asked a worker there if I could use their restroom, and she told me that it was only for employees, and told me that people goes to Carl's junior restroom which is located in the same area, well, maybe I need to go and spend my money at Carl's junior then, this is my last time I go to this place, I can't believe they have this stupid policy, they gladly want us the customer to spend our money there but we can't use...
