225 Danbury Rd, Wilton“This shop accepts vintage donations and 100% of all proceeds go directly back to the school at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Academy, Wilton. The store is nestled back behind the school and a gem you should all come visit. Please drop any donations on the porch or next to the garage door. Thank you for your support.”
“The RTS has come a long way since it was founded. The location it occupies is spacious, with ample parking. Items for sale are clean, and nicely displayed. They take credit cards, cash, and possibly checks, although I've never asked to pay this way. The volunteers are pleasant and helpful. They often have themed sales like vintage books, prom dresses, or holiday decor and clothing. Many items are bargain priced, but the boutique section is considerably higher priced. These items are in a glass case, or on racks nearby with security tags. While the prices are higher, they are still considerably lower than retail, but not generally low enough to allow for enough margin for resale. I would like to see them open every day, but that is till not the case.”

12 Cross St, Norwalk“Dropped in today to donate some toys, ended up picking up some old DVDs too. Probably the best value for money of any of the thrift stores in town, and the guys running it seemed friendly.”

628 Main St, Stamford“I cannot even begin to say enough good things about this thrift store. The people who work here are so kind; they always have a smile, a kind word, and will even remember you once you've come in a time or two. I love the sense of community here - it truly can't be beat. I also love the items they have for sale here. It's not a very large store but they have a section of books, sewing items, home-wares/dishes, kitchen items, men's clothes, women's clothes, children's clothes/toys, and shoes for all three. The items are priced fairly and tend to run from more modern pieces to those that are older. They also have a nice section of greeting cards. The funds raised here go back into the church and the community and I'm always glad to shop here and support such an endeavor. As a note they are *not* open daily and they are a cash-only establishment.”
“My favorite thrift store for really special items, you never know what you'll find here but it's always worth a visit. Staff are super friendly as well, I always feel welcome.”
“This is just an fyi, we have tried to go here two times. And it is only open on Thursdays and Fridays from 11 AM to 2 PM.... unfortunately. With working and my daughter in school, not sure when we'll be able to see it. But it looks very cute from the outside.”

996 Post Rd, Darien“This little thrift shop is such a treasure. Their staff is incredibly kind, they have a wide variety of good quality items, and one of the most exquisite glassware sections that I have ever seen in a thrift store! It has a homey feel and is in a great location.”
“This is a fun store to search through and I am so happy with my few purchases - vintage ceramic pitcher, square ceramic dinner plate and box of new wine glasses. Will be going back. Lots of clothes we'll search through next time and lovely customer service. Bought this pristine pitcher for $8 and it's a rare find, online $35 plus shipping if available.”

“Well organized store, some good clothes seen on the racks. A lot of housewares items are straight from the dollar store or target shelves by the entrance, so those are not much of cool finds or good deals.”
“The Norwalk Goodwill store tops all the local Fairfield county GW shops by far!!! I know cause I’ve been to Stamford and Westport and Norwalk has the lowest prices and the best hidden gems! I have been shopping here for 7 years and have found some amazing things for the home and clothing.I have found two gorgeous Della Robia hand crafted in Italy Madonna and Child large circular wall art for $8 and $10!!! They start at least at $180 on up!!! So beautiful and real treasures for the home. I have found an almost new couch and loveseat for $69!!! What a steal and looked almost brand new!!! I have found countless children’s books and clothing that is designer name brands much of it new. LL Bean, Lands End, J. crew and Vineyard Vine’s. Really great stuff at a fraction of the cost of these expensive and overpriced retail stores.Goodwill is by far the way to go!!! And yes there is junk to be sure, so when you find the hidden gem it is so exciting!!! Worth a look for those who will dare the racks and brave the onslaught of junk to find the treasures!!! You will not find a better deal anywhere else.I’ve been shopping here for years and all of the employees are helpful, kind and do the best they can. I also love that Goodwill employs people who may have handicaps and trials in life. Good for them for doing this and I like supporting a store that tries to help others. Goodwill is indeed “Good”!”
“Take time to look at the variety of items and Jewelry. Fine glasses! It is like a little treasure shop. If you are looking for something different. Items change.. What is there today might not be there tomorrow. Antique looking items. Friendly! Prices change based on date. Might pay less. Enjoyed looking thru the pieces.”
