Great little place with such an amazing selection! Very reasonable prices and always in trend. Def worth the trip before heading into main part of Mystic.

This is the best consignment shop I've found in CT! They label their items with different colours and do regular colour sales, similar to Goodwill. Pennywise has a much higher quality stock than Goodwill, though (no shade to Goodwill). They carry primarily higher end brands, and I've found some really amazing pieces here for low prices!They also did a warehouse sale recently where everything was under $20. I hope that becomes an annual event, because I left with a whole new wardrobe that my college-student budget would not have accommodated otherwise!

I rarely write reviews. If I'm pleased with a company's product, they'll have my business again... and again. I also like to support our local businesses - if they have superior customer service, great products and a command of the ever-changing landscape of their industry - they are worth my time and money.This is PENNYWISE.Consignment stores have always been around. The Salvation Army, Goodwill and a few dark, musty, mom & pop shops were just the beginning of my addiction. I've seen many close their doors long before Covid, and after. Running a bricks-and-mortar business, as opposed to an entirely online model, has always been a challenge. But the one thing that has made PENNYWISE what it is today is its progressive consistency. Let's explore a Google review last month from "N."First, the prices - not only are they fair, they are well below retail. And, their color-coded markdowns come at a persuasive pace. Second, there is no cat - no scent of a cat, no trace of a cat, and the staff does not engage in talking to any imaginary cat. Third, there is no mildew smell (perhaps it was "N"?) anywhere in the building. On any given, nice day the door is propped open, windows let in fresh air as well as proximate views of Mystic Seaport. Fourth, it's clean. Yes, clean - even the corners of the dressing room floors. (and, let's be honest, have you ever seen what you're stepping on in TJ's?) Lastly, it was written by "N" that "people were rude." Were they fellow customers, staff? Were they tourists that asked you to please not block an isle? Hmm. I have been in PENNYWISE countless times over the past 2 decades. I have never, EVER, heard any member of the PENNYWISE team, both past or present, be anything but courteous and helpful - including on the phone.And, if you'll indulge me just again, one of the most impressive things PENNYWISE has mastered over the last few years is their online platform. Have you seen this thing?! Not only is it easy to navigate, it's creative, edgy, and delivers what others cannot - an accessible approach to an upscale consignment experience.That's progressive consistency.I have been to hundreds (remember, my addiction) of consignment and thrift stores in several states over the years. PENNYWISE sets the gold standard as consignment shops go. Their ability to select the most on-trend styles, offer consignors the best value for their items, and treat every customer with kind respect and a smile - that's the bedrock of business and a definite requirement for success.You won't be disappointed :)

This is our first stop whenever we are in Mystic. The designer pieces they get are incredible and the staff is always fun to chat with!

This used to be a great place to shop. Sadly it’s expensive. It’s filthy in there and it has a mildew smell. It was a cat roaming around so if you have asthma or any type of allergies, stay clear of this place. People were rude and there’s way better consignment stores than this. Sad because it’s my favorite place to go since 2010 it’s gone straight down.

My all time favourite consignment shoppe! Donna is a wonderful business owner and person. I love that this place is family owned and family run. They curate the shoppe beautifully and tend to choose a nice array of fun and elevated items. My only critiques would be that sometimes it can be a bit pricy for consignment, and the racks can feel a bit stuffed. I would love to see them start a Poshmark account to help move older inventory and it would open them up to people like myself who would love to continue to shop with them even while I'm across the country in California lol. Personal note, my mom and I used to both shop and consign here together before she passed away. It was one of our favourite places to visit together, and we often had really heartwarming conversations with Donna and her daughter about our love of animals. These are really kind, caring people who care about their business and its impact on the community. Also, I will ALWAYS remember Steve the cat he has a permanent home in my heart.

I LOVE Pennywise! I always make sure to stop by when I'm in the area. They have a huge selection of clothes, shoes, belts, accessories, and more. They often have sales on lots of items, so you can shop on a budget. I never leave this store empty-handed. Highly recommend!

Got a Frye bag there and it had expired prescription medication in the bag. As a future pharmacist, please look thru the pockets of the purses you are selling what happened is incredibly dangerous.
