Thrift Stores in Jonesboro, AR

“Definitely the best thrift store in Jonesboro! Clean, great rotating weekly sales, friendly staff, and the pricing is pretty fair. Sometimes I think certain items are a little too pricey, but I typically just shop according to what the sales are that week so it’s fine. I do like that unlike Goodwill, they have their clothes sorted by size. They have a great shoe selection that is priced fairly, and it’s a great place to find cheap used books too. Always new stuff to find and I love coming here.

Could I make ONE small suggestion? I really think the toy department needs a complete overhaul. I enjoy Thrifting for toys for my three-year-old, but I rarely buy anything here for a few reasons that I’ve known many others to also complain about. These changes are simple and I hope you’ll consider them because if you do myself and many others would buy more toys.

1. The bin of stuffed animals is stuffed so full it’s too much work to see what’s available so unless I see it on top I don’t bother. However I do appreciate that all the stuffies are always clean and in good condition! I don’t really know the solution there but I’d be more inclined to buy if it were easier to look through.

2. I personally feel like if a toy set is missing significant parts, it either shouldn’t be sold or there should be a deeply discounted section for toy sets with missing parts. Or send them to recycling. I’m simply not willing for example to buy a shape sorter set with some shapes missing, or learning toys missing some alphabet or number pieces. I don’t really know anyone who would.

3. When I have traveled to other states and gone to their thrift stores, I have noticed that usually in their toy department, they bag together smaller items and sell for one price. It cuts down on clutter and things becoming lost and I bet it’s also easier for the employees. These bags are typically on pegged hooks and it’s easier to see what’s available. I’ve eeen them bag together multiple Barbies, small plushes, or small toys, toy cars, or toy balls, etc. again, I feel like it would ultimately be easier for the staff and customers would be more inclined to buy.

One last suggestion unrelated to the toy department: I understand that businesses like yours close the bathroom to customers because of safety concerns, especially people using the bathroom for things like using drugs or whatever. However, if a small child has to use the restroom they simply cannot wait and there’s not a very close public bathroom for them. People with medical conditions such as IBS or crohns also simply cannot wait. Perhaps a solution, such as asking an employee for a restroom key could be a solution? I don’t know. But I do feel like there are some real concerns people have about the bathrooms, being completely closed, so maybe some kind of solution can be found.

I hope that these suggestions are taken for what I intend them to be: opportunities to make it even better, not as complaints, as I love shopping here.”

“This is a fun little thrift shop with a great cause! They are closed Sunday and Monday. They usually have sales each week and will post about them on their social media. They have clothes for the whole family, toys, books, and kitchenware/homegoods; you will never know what you may find. Prices are good, lower than Goodwill's prices in general.”

“This store always has a wide variety of things to look at/through. If you are looking for furniture, this is the thrift shop to visit (along with lighting and medical equipment).”

“My first visit, and I was surprised. More like a retail store when I was expecting just a small storefront to drop off donations…Have no real idea if it serves its primary function well, but it does the “retail storefront” very-well…lots of quality items to shop, well-laid out and completely a “retail feel”. Will return when I have move than 10 minutes to spend in the store and update…but great first impression!”
