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

I go to this store once a week. It used to be my favorite thrift store because the items were priced well and it wasn't as expensive as good will, which is way too expensive for a thrift store so I won't shop at good will. I've always appreciated Salvation army's prices and I do love the cashiers that have worked here for a long time, very nice and friendly ladies as well as the guy that walks around the store and greets people. But I went in there today and was very disappointed. They are under new management and they've raised the prices on everything so now the clothes are priced just as high as Good Will and they've also taken away the 50% off a certain color tag they used to have everyday. They have gildan T-shirts in there for $3 and thats the exact price I buy them for online brand new. I won't be shopping here very much anymore, if at all. Leave it to new management to screw everything up. I will stick to St. Vincent's where they price everything...

Cleaner than the Salvation Army stores down south. Employees are usually nice. Truely a good place to shop and support the community, unlike those other stores that claim to be full of "good will".

Cons: A bit short on selection; this is someplace you go to get lucky finding something or if you're desperately in need of some...

What a great guy! Definitely went above and beyond. We got a great 'new to us' couch thanks to his great...
