    Maybe add a 5th category. “Referral from a local”. Either someone shopping in the store or an employee. Don’t tell them you r looking for the best thrift store in America just that you’re visiting and want to check it out. Congrats on your baby news. So happy for you both.
    Happy Holidays.

    The village thrift has lost their minds as of late! I’ve been going there since the 90’s. They used to have great prices and you could actually find the half off tickets everywhere. Also they used to offer 1/2 off on holidays. They have changed a lot! A did a short vid on the village. They had a tore up jacket with a ridiculous price.

I found a Louis Vuitton wallet IN BOX for $30. It was selling online for $600+.

  • @seanodonnell9826
    @seanodonnell9826 7 месяцев назад

    The thing about the Village is that it's a for-profit "Grift Store", they've been raising their prices steadily for the past few years on merchandise they receive for free and then charge premium prices. That being said, I find good things there at reasonable prices on occasion. If that was the Salvation on Clybourn, it's located within the affluent neighborhood Lincoln Park, they know they can get away with juicing boho yuppies. The thrifting scene in Chicago is lacking these days to say the least.

    • @tycetycebaby

    I LOVE Winnetka Thrift. I make special trips from near Midway on the south side just to shop there. For expensive designer items, very reasonable prices. All volunteers! and super nice. Village Discount is pretty bad these days. Absolutely horrible customer service in the northside stores. Only decent ones are on North Kedzie and the south side locations. And only decent because much of there stuff is very overpriced even there. I look for the things they miss! Family Thrift on Pulaski just ok, horrible on Western. Dont even get me started on Salvation Army on Clybourn. The one on Harlem & 90th and Arlington Heights are the only good locations left for pretty good stuff. At least staff is nice at Salvation Army

    This is MISLEADING. He shopped the Village and only looked at the WHITE tags which is full price. The store has 1/2 off on color tags. Again misleading for the Salvation Army. He didn't find the color tags, only the whites. When you thrift those stores you never go in trying to find a white tag.

    • @tycetycebaby
