“So many wonderful finds, I bought 3 prs of shoes, a vest & 2 pairs of pants... all in near new condition. The employees are curdious, helpful, & cheerful. The store is packed with great finds, huge (a double store) but not cluttered. It's well organized even with customers that don't respect how hard it is to keep a place like this neat... you know, folks that change their minds & put things anywhere without thought... Please guys, just leave it at the register on the way out, believe me, the employees appreciate it. You know...example: @Aldi, why do idiots throw eggs & lettuce in the freezer? Why? Change your mind? Just leave it at checkout! Everytime I change my mind, I ask an employees to return it back to where it belongs AND They thank me, with a surprised gaze when I hand them the merchandise, then a greatful smile.
But honestly, love this place... like a treasure hunt...alway walk out with 5-6 gems w/ a total under $50.”

“St. Alban's Opportunity Shop is a true gem in the community. With its recent reopening, it continues its legacy of providing quality goods at affordable prices since 1955. The shop's commitment to supporting those in need is commendable, and I am proud to contribute to their cause. The weekly shopping hours are convenient, and the friendly staff always makes my visit enjoyable. Whether I'm looking for clothing, household items, or unique treasures, the Op Shop never disappoints. It's heartwarming to know that my purchases go towards helping the community. I highly recommend paying a visit to this wonderful thrift store.”

“This store is very nicely organized and I enjoy the selection. It would be 5 stars if not for the incredibly disappointing customer service. We were there 10 minutes before closing, with items in hand at the toy section, when they turned out the lights and then had an elderly lady come tell us to leave. She was standing right next to us and was very rude. I would have spent more money for sure. I’ve been in many times and I’ve never been treated so unkindly. It left a bad taste in my mouth.”

“Love this neighborhood gem ! Easy process to donate / sell gently used clothes and either redeem for cash back or store credit . Every time I’m gone to donate clothes I end up purchasing new brand name goodies ! Great way to refresh your wardrobe :)”

“There’s a decent selection and the prices are pretty good. Most things are around $10, few are above $20. The customer service was phenomenal. I had $13.00 of $14.80 and the cashier waved the difference. He was super friendly about it, too. The person I was with was also short a few dollars and he waved the difference, again.”

“Good selection of books. They're a little more expensive than I'm used to in other parts of the country.Cover Price up to $6.94 = $2.49 ea.Cover Price $6.95 to $9.94 = $2.99 ea.Cover Price $9.95 and up = $3.49 ea.That's the pricing scheme unless otherwise listed. Many prices are listed on the sticker.However, buy 4 books and get the 5th one free is a good deal.”

“As a donor, the process couldn't be easier: no inspection, just drop your stuff into the bins by the entrance. As a shopper, I have found luck with some of their kids' clothes and books, as well as some beautiful vintage glassware. Personally their adult clothing and shoes haven't caught my eye, which they dedicate 75% of the store to. I'd prefer a more curated adult clothing selection as I find the quantity overwhelming with too many items that I think no one is likely to buy.”

“Visited for the first time today and was excited to find several really great adult Halloween costumes for just $15 each. The volunteer staff was kind and helpful, and they seemed happy to be there. I spent about half an hour looking through all the interesting wares, which were good quality and priced much lower than 8 expected. Great Job, Opportunity Shop.”

“Love this place, lovely family owned store. They're always so helpful. They pretty much have everything you need especially in an emergency. Best part is we get to keep money in our community over national brands. If you live near by and want them to have something that you know you'll continue to buy they are willing to get it to have it on hand for you (of course be reasonable).Just be careful walking in here as there is A LOT so make sure you are careful where you're walking.”

“I'm very passionate about thrift stores and so when I stumbled upon unique I was very excited. I went a little overboard ha ha. My friend just had her second kid so I spent a lot of time back in the kids section... They have a very large selection of gently used kids clothing at super reasonable prices so I was able to spoil my friend's kids without breaking the bank. The good thing about toddlers is that they grow out of clothes so quickly that most of the clothes we got looked almost brand new. For myself I found that they have a nice selection of plus size clothing for women and I left with a number of new items. They give you a discount on different days of the week and if you bring in items to donate, so I always come in with things to give away which is a good excuse to clear out my closet before I add a bunch of new stuff to it”

“Midsized store with fairly good organization and layout, book section is fairly small, two standing bookshelves generally mixed up. Clothing is sorted by type and then sometimes by colour way, but not by size, which leads to more time spent sorting through individual pieces and then checking sizes when shopping for someone specific. Usually one of the older price tag colours will be discounted, there is a sign at the entrance saying which colour. Pricing seemed well within typical thrift store ranges to me, items within the same category can have a range of prices e.g. women’s dresses can range from $6-$12.I would subtract half a star for the religious playlist if I could, I recommend headphones/earbuds if that’s not your thing.”

“BLUF: I recommend.
All thrift stores have raised their prices regardless of location and store name/brand/chain.
Despite the national price of everything going up, there were a largenumber of items at wonderful prices. The opportunity to save more is available if you download the app and use their coupons. The store also has a special day to save an extra discount on items.
The parking lot is large on the side and back of the store. The front parking lot is smaller.
Items in the store are 90% displayed clutter free.
I did not interact with any store employee, except the check out person. She was nice and packed my things with care into the large reusable bag.
If you go here I HIGHLY recommend you bring your own shopping bags and paper to wrap delicate items. I would also encourage you to come early. I came on a Friday afternoon and it was busier than I expected.
As a female shopping alone I felt safe in the area.
Bottomline: I recommend this thrift store.”

“My girlfriend and I recently moved in together! During this process we had quite of bit of duplicates from kitchen appliances to large living room and bed room furniture. We used this location for a large pick up. It went extremely smooth. The two men, Lenard and Carlos, who came to pick up the load were great! They were on time for our allotted pick up time, they help keep the condition of everything as is, and overall were friendly and understanding people.

This was a great experience for us, we were at first skeptical from other reviews. Now we know this is the way to go.”

“Amazing thrift store. I can’t believe I’ve lived in the DMV for over 20 years and just discovered it. Many of the reviews say the staff there is rude, but that was not my experience. Then again I am not a POC. I’m a 60 year old Whyte woman . Some stuff is pricey e.g. I saw a Corningware dish with lid for $40, but altogether lots of items are cheap enough.”

“Can’t speak to the shopping experience, but the folks working the donations are all so helpful and kind. They offer to help take your bags out of your car for you so it’s a quick and easy process. Was there Sunday 10/29. Thanks all!”
