Tyler Thrift — Local services in Tyler

Revolutionary way to do a thrift shop!! I feel so blessed to live in the same town as Tyler Thrift. Their prices are SO GOOD and they do so much for our community. I have never heard of a business model like theirs, but I feel like if this was done everywhere it would change the world - and that's not an exaggeration. Most thrift shops only pull the "best" items and mark them up quite a bit. The rest (sometimes up to 80% of donations) is sent to landfills or shipped to 3rd world countries like Haiti, where toxins from the clothing landfills there pollute the water and cause birth defects and illnesses to the local residents.

Will not be back. Was a long...

I use to love coming here but now there is never anything to buy because customers stand at the counter grabbing everything that comes out, these customers will be there for hours and give you rude faces if you walk near them. The past 5 times I have came in these customers were hoarding things at the counter, my recent trips have been a waste of time and money. Also the employees post things on the Facebook page that are immediately taken up by the people at the counter and the items can’t even be placed on the shelves, I came in today and there were 5 people with their carts completely full and grabbing things from the counter but the employees only tell specific...
