Alpha Thrift Store Goleta

Just purchased many kitchen items for our 2nd year student. All set for his new apartment! Good for our pocket book, for the charity, & for the environment! Organized and well-stocked. Woman at cash register very pleasant.

Some of the rudest employees work at Alpha Thrift Goleta. If you ask them for a price check, they'll lie and say a different price. The people who work at the donations, reciving dropoff will only go through the good stuff and take it home. A former employer has told me they receive tips and scavenge through the merch before it goes out on the floor. Terrible.

Very disappointed. The workers were too rude and loud. Yelling at the costumers without work ethics. Yelling and screaming at each other like they were in the barn. We used to donate monthly there for more than 20 years and sometimes stopped by to check for any goods. After couple of years, we were there yesterday, and couldn't find anything good or with the price on. We had to wait 20 minutes for the price check and still they didn't figure it out. It was very unorganized and some stuff were priced more than in the regular stores. They should get a better qualified management there. That place is going down. We won't bother to go to that store anymore, there are much better one in town.

The staff is not always the most helpful, or kind.but the store having some good stuff makes up for it

Hopefully I went on an off day. The employees were not pleasant at all. I’m assuming the employees are not taken care of. Plus the prices are way off for a thrift store. Selling broken products for more than the big box stores.

Amazingly high-quality items laid out in an organized and thoughtful away. A lot of fun, and worth the time to browse and to support this venerable Santa Barbara charity. The facility is commodious, I’m guessing 100 x 80’, and with good parking.

I love this place! They have great holiday-themed options available right now and their employees are very nice!

Very good Thrift store, clean and well organized. Prices may be higher than expected, but worth it to me

Some things are a bit overpriced, but their diverse selection and great organization makes up for it. Hope to come back again some day.

Store is cluttered with piles stacked upon piles of unprocessed merchandise. Close the store and reopen when ready to do business in a professional manner!?

Way Way Overpriced!
A bit of a ripoff store. Your better buying new. Same prices but new items.
