    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 Roscoe Village Thrift Store used to be good but now it's ridiculously expensive. I've heard they go to eBay and that's where they get their prices.

    Thrift store pricing in the Chicagoland area has certainly gone up but excluding that Winnetka stop, some of the other suburban thrift stores are better priced than what you found.

      Yeah but even the thing about the vintage t-wall it's like like even Goodwill is doing that they even have their own online store and a eBay where you can buy like video games and clothing. That's more desirable vintage. I'm not saying it's the right thing but I'm just saying that's what they're all doing

    You went to the wrong neighborhoods! I have a Village Discount Outlet next door to my building, and a couple more within like a mile or 2, I believe one is called Unique Thrift Store…anyway, I live in the Old Irving/Albany Park area, and the prices are WAY less than those stores. I found a Louis Vuitton wallet IN BOX for $30. It was selling online for $600+.

    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

  • @seanodonnell9826
    @seanodonnell9826 3 месяца 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 they stay in business because a good portion of their inventory they get free from donations. the rest they buy by the pound so they’re getting inventory for pennies on the dollar. Plus they pay employees very low wages. Most of them speak very little English if any at all so it’s hard for them to find employment anywhere else.

    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.
