Lancaster Creative Reuse — Local services in Manheim Township

It’s unfortunate that this was a decent place to go previously. I have shopped at this place for years and never have I ever been disrespected. I came in to the new location excited to see what they had but knowing they closed soon…so I rushed around and put a few items in my basket to purchase and then I saw a familiar face ( manager? Supervisor?🤷🏻‍♀️) so I said hello and first thing out her mouth was were closed! Wow! How rude!!! I took a step back and she said we’re closed you need to check out! I said you can keep it, so left I my basket on the side of the aisle and gave the worker that opened the door an earful before leaving the store. I will never ever step foot in that store again!!

Also have a craft table for children and can do events as well (crafting events). All around a great place for crafters to get...

They should have never moved. Since relocating to Manheim Township they have raised their prices, and they have lost their charm. There used to be a sense of community and a welcoming, jovial atmosphere when you walked through the doors. Now, there are hardly any customers in there, there is no lively atmosphere and the presence is more like a small thrift store. I used to go in and find treasures, and walk out with more items than I intended to purchase. Now I walk out empty handed. I was in the other day and spotted an item that I had just seen at Hobby Lobby. It was $1 more at Creative Reuse and it was used. Their selection is not what it once was and it's not worth the drive. I believe in their mission and was a supporter for years, but no longer get excited to...
