    This location has a serious issue with scalpers dominating the store. They often crowd around employees bringing out carts, push past other shoppers, and make it so unpleasant for anyone who’s actually shopping for themselves. I’ve even seen scalpers trying to sell items to customers inside the store for higher prices before they’ve even purchased the items themselves. It feels chaotic and poorly managed, and it makes regular customers feel unwelcome. I cannot believe this is a church-related thrift with the way it’s being run. Someone needs to step in and fix this.

    This location has allowed too many re sellers to come in and fill their carts and wait all day for the staff to put out new product on the floor . They scour the carts with product like zombies trying to eat dead flesh. Its absurd I bring my family in to buy second hand items we cannot afford to buy new . And everytime we come to this location there are 7 re sellers with full shopping carts of items only purchasing from the good will to re sell online for more money. This makes me sick that the Mormon church would allow this to happen. People that cant afford usually shop here but it's become a business idea for too many people to compete with . I am sick of seeing this and will be reporting this location

    They don't honor the prices that THEY SET. they tagged a jacket as $4, I go up to the counter with a $5 bill, and they say "no that's not supposed to be that price" and try to change it to $10. These people act like they don't have their entire inventory handed to them for free by the public that they overcharge.
