“the staff was totally fine, maybe they changed? But the problem of prices seems to have occurred across all of the stores. $25 for worn out shoes. I thought this store felt less abandoned and more neat than the one in West Berkeley. It’s likely just chance. For the most part though, you might as treat yourself to Daiso for quality new Japanese goods at a cheaper price.”

“I would highly recommend coming here! The owner Michael is nice and the store is really clean. All of the clothing was sorted by color and it was very well organized. We liked looking through all the racks, all of the clothes were great quality and there was something there for everyone. The prices were also extremely fair. I will definitely come back the next time I am in Berkeley!”

“It's like getting into a treasure room. Jocelyn's (the owner) goal is and always was to have a free store, but she needs to pay the store's rent so she does plant sales. I don't know anybody more knowledgeable about plants than her, I got mine from her ages ago and they're thriving. Free UP is open only on Sundays now from 12pm to 3pm. Definitely one of my favorite places.”

“I'm not one to leave reviews, but this place should get noticed! Found an awesome deal on a used mannequin here. The owner, Judi, has a fun personality and is really knowledgeable and helpful in finding what you're looking for. A good selection of mannequins to choose from. These were actual real store mannequins and you can't beat the price. Don't buy one from Amazon. Well worth a trip to her Oakland warehouse to pick one out. I would definitely go back. Thank You!”

“If you are over 50, or a "real senior", the Mastick Senior Center is a great place for a variety of activities. I, personally, love Line Dancing, Zumba and Yoga. Come and make friends while staying healthy.”

“Hours on Google are usually up to date. Unbeatable prices for used children's clothing, socks, shoes, etc. They carry infant, toddler, and children's sizes. Located inside Harbor House. People who work here are so nice and friendly. I always find a handful of items to bring home for less than the price of one at a more "upscale" thrift store (and what's the point of thrifting if you're paying "new" prices for things?).”

“We were in the area and decided to stop by. It's not in the best of neighborhoods so I judged and thought it would not be good. First I walked in and everything is sorted by color to be honest I loved that. It was easy to find what you wanted. The closest were name brand and a lot of cute finds. There was also a lot of stuff with new tags. The prices were super reasonable. Definitely a hidden gem.”

“This store is a real asset to El Cerrito. Always nicely arranged and tidy. I noticed that they have an overabundance of outdated clothes that are very colorful. Seems people prefer black, grey and beige these days, so I hope they have an ecological way to dispose of them.”

“We were driving by and decided to stop by here. There's a small parking but there is a lot of street parking. This store is really clean and was fully stocked. There were a lot of new items. I noticed the store was well organized so it's easy to find things. The book section was really good highly recommend. The people who worked here were really nice. Overall had a great experience.”

“The perfect companion to the Turnabout Shop down the street with closely aligned limited hours and very similar selection, organization, and pricing! Friendly service and interesting options; formalwear gets a little pricier than I would like but regular clothes are reasonable. Books and knickknacks galore. Limited menswear selection. Don't miss for your thrifting day in the area!”

“Excellent place for getting souvenirs, there are couple stores in the area... I would recommend go visit all of them and see first the options, there are places with the same things and some others with better options and better prices. Overall here is a good option more taking in court it's not closed early”

“I love this store- very sweet staff and good stuff but here's the thing ...I've now come here twice when they are supposed to be open according to their posted hours and they're not open. So I have come all the way across town to pick up a wish order and look around and they're not open. :(”

I always find the staff friendly and helpful.  It's a very fun place to shop, and best of all, the proceeds support the schools!”

“This is my favorite goodwill in SF. Not only do I always find a treasure the people are amazing humans. Unknowingly I dropped a family heirloom ring while shopping. Terrified when I realized and got home I called , and the women here say it and were holding it for me. Super grateful for their honesty and help.”

“Although, the program didn’t work out for me due to my need for dual diagnosis, I still think it’s a great program. The staff are caring and patient. There are a lot of rules with strict consequences but it’ll help provide the structure and discipline you need. The work program can be a bit overwhelming but it’ll take time to get used to. You wake up at 5am weekdays and 6am on weekends. There is 8 hour shifts/5days a week in which you receive a small gratuity. The food is wonderful and the home is beautiful, well kept and clean. You are required to sign over your EBT benefits to them but they provide plenty of good food and you’ll easily gain healthy weight in no time. Shoutout to Courtney for being so patient and kind and Sabrina as well. The Filipino woman that answers the phone is extremely judgmental and rude. She questioned whether I was “real woman” because my chest is very small. Horrible feeling and it definitely didn’t give me a great start to things at all. They provide transportation to and from work and well as lunches you pack yourself at the house. You’re not allowed to smoke at work but get plenty of free time to smoke at the house. The showers/bathrooms are awesome. Bed are comfy and blankets nice and warm. It’s two people to a room but it’s spacious with plenty of storage. Curfew is 9 and lights out at 10pm. You get coffee in the morning and at work. There are plenty of books and movies to pass the time. Most clients or “beneficiaries” are court ordered. My only hang up is that it isn’t dual diagnosis so there is no mental health services at all and that religion is forced on you from the beginning. You must dress, act, sit and follow all of the captains commands to a T or there will be consequences. If you don’t mind the religious aspect then overall it’s a wonderful program. They have aftercare resources once you graduate as well. Thank you for my time there! I was difficult without the mental health resources but still think very highly of them. They made sure I was taken care of and even provided a jacket when I left. You’ll get plenty of good clothes while you are there that you return if you don’t graduate. Tons of snacks! Only other thing is that they could possible cut down the shifts to 5 hours in order to allow for meetings and classes from more trained professionals without taking away from the limited free time after work. You will be closely monitored but lead well by your peer mentor for the first 30 days. Captain is a bit intense kind of with expectations but is still kind and caring”

“Great store, amazing finds, supporting an all women business is a win for me! Plus they had what I was looking for for my Christmas shopping list! It’s a circular economy- less waste in our landfill, affordable items for my wallet, repurposed items going to a good home and supporting single moms all while keeping our dollars in Oakland.”

“I work in HIV and I am pleased about this agency/retailer meeting and giving back to the community in a practical tangible way. The color-coordination and organization is extremely pleasing to the eye, making it much more easy to shop. Items are great quality, it’s clean, and spacious. My kids like thrifting so this is a great choice.”

“This was a great shop for thrifting! The clothing selection is small, but it’s all well gone through because the clothing is quality for a really great price. Shirts were $3 and jackets were $5. There are also furniture pieces, pretty large and brand new! The cashier was really kind too!”

“The donation process was absolutely easy for us. There is a 15 min parking in front of the store. You park, let the staff know what furniture/item you’re donating & they will check the items to make sure everything is in good condition.”
