Comment: The staff receiving donations were so kind. I went for the first time on Monday morning.Entering the alley was like entering Santas Workshop. They had towers of donations wheeling around in carts and everyone was smiling and thanking me- someone opened my car door for me as I got back in. Im now subconsciously looking around my home for things to donate so I have an excuse to go back to the actual North Pole.

Comment: This is an excellent place for high quality thrifting. It has a great selection of furniture in near perfect condition. A beautiful glass table with 4 gorgeous chairs was $99. Nice office desks and sofas were a great value. Today I bought two wicker chairs in excellent shape, only a minor scuff on one - for $99! Merchandise is well organized, no sorting through jumbles. Employees are helpful. Probably not the right place for rock bottom bargains - I use our local Goodwill stores for that. I arrive by bus, as parking is very scarce, the reason I gave it a 4. I sort of hate to share my source for furniture...

Comment: So Ive been going here for the past 5 years they use to be way cheaper!!! They have two stores one with the upmarket designer labels and good quality furniture and then next door has the real bargains. The stuff are super friendly and very helpful taking your goods to the car! Shout out to Mario, Alan and Gus. Got this car for my daughter last week $125 in the sale normally $599 at Toy R Us! Need I say more.

Comment: Neighborhood stalwart has been through changes over the years with more to come. Sometime in the last five years, a savvy merchandiser took over the pricing policy at the boutique store that forms the southern part of this large store. The prices went up to something closer to what you might find on eBay, but not quite what an Etsy seller would demand. More recently, it seems someone is combing through the clothing racks and sending the better items to the store on Santa Monica Blvd that sits opposite the Santa Monica Public Library. Those two cautions aside, though, this remains a treasure and trash trove thats worth the occasional visit, particularly if youve broken a favorite Pyrex dish or want a few used paperbacks to read on the plane and leave behind in the hotel room.

Comment: I was reluctant to even post a review because it is such a selfish pleasure to go here. Very easy to donate items ( drive up donation in the back); being in. Santa Monica, the quality of donations appears to be better than other locations. Alert: street parking is available, but goes fast. There are several freelance movers that station themselves right outside of the store to help transport whatever large furniture you just got back to your place.

Comment: DROP-OFF HOURS:Google shows different hours, which are specific to the store. Note that while the store is closed on Sunday, you can still drop-off! I couldnt find this information on the website, so I thought I would provide it here:Drop-off hours:Mon - Sat: 7am - 7pmSun: 11am - 4pm or 5pm (you may want to call to confirm; perhaps this changes).A worthy non-profit organization!
