South Side Mission Thrift Store, Peoria IL

You do have wonderful things but your prices have gone up exponentially! They are donations for heavens sake! Why the high prices? If your rent went up understandable but those prices are too high. After visiting you I stopped in at two sisters. They were packed with customers! Your store had very few people in it today and the last time I was in same thing. I'm sure the person who's reading this is not in charge of the jump in prices. But if less people are buying the increase didn't really help
I've shopped with you many times but.

Pretty good selection of items, most of which are priced very reasonably. College students can get 25% discount with ID. Donation experience was also good.

Yeah uh, this has been said before but their prices are way too high. I once saw a 2019/2020 pez dispenser (out of the package and had scratches paint) priced as 6.99.also there was this one time that I tried to buy a plushie, and it said either 0.99 or 1.99 unmarked. I checked for anything on the plushie that said otherwise and didn’t find anything.when i got to the cash register the clerk looked at it and began to say it was 4.99, but stopped and changed it to 5.99. I asked why and the clerk said “because of who she is”. I’ve seen this specific clerk bump prices up even if the item was originally marked much lower, I’ve always assumed she then buys them for the original price, and the way she was looking the plushie as if she was checking for spots basically proved that to me.

Antique stores can charge what they do because all items are in good condition and you don’t have to wade through dirty broken garbage. You guys are not on that level. Please stop price matching internet price tags as well. That is specialty and there are exchange policies.

And management is rude EVERY TIME. All other staff is cool.

Prices are crazy high, and priced above what you would even pay at an antique shop. Even damaged or worn items are overpriced and furniture is more expensive than buying brand new.

It's a thrift store.but.it is high priced used stuff. Not worth the stop if you need a real bargain.: (It is very clean and organized though! No restrooms for customers to use from the last two visits here 6 months apart.
