“Very clean store with a little of everything. I purchased a couple of crystals that were reasonably priced and gorgeous. Lady that checked me out was very pleasant, it was a great experience.”
“Best small thrift shop in Corpus Christi. They check for quality, so you know what you're buying is worth the money. Prices are very reasonable, and the service is quite pleasant as well.
If you're a thrifter, this is the kind of story you love to go to again and again because it's always a positive experience. Even some of the medium-sized, cause based stores (like the Purple place) don't check out everything they're selling you and they don't give refunds!
Bonus, American thrift is located right next door to the Fruit King!!!
I've added a photo of an item that is actually labeled to show you part of it doesn't work, but at least you don't get a sad surprise when you get home. It's nice to get what you expect when you're out thrifting. :)”
“Very friendly n welcoming staff...especially Baby Spencer?Wonderful variety of items that were displayed very creatively !!! There is sooo much to see you have to return to take more in. Staff were very accommodating. Will definitely spread the word about this jewel of a shop!!!”
“I have never written a review before, but I had to for this place. I live all the way in Kansas City, MO and love antiques. Found this place while I was on vacation and they have such a broad collection!
The staff is super friendly, helpful and engaging! I went in twice during my stay. I believe it was AJ and Celeste there, if I caught their names right? Both were absolutely incredible, deserving of raises (if they hadn't got them already)!
The atmosphere is also wonderful. Good music is played and the store is well designed. Very cozy vibes.
Overall, absolutely 5 stars, I will be stopping back in when in town and if y'all ship, I'd be more than happy to pay shipping?”
“Went after work and the ladies very nicely announced the upcoming closing time without being pushy in the least. Large selection and everything was in good to great condition - no stains, holes, etc. that you'll find other places. Pricing was reasonable with rotating sales on different color tags. Definitely will be back.”
“Great store with vintage antiques. I bought a small bag of plastic army men. Awesome store. Stop by and take a look. Bring some cash with you, you'll want to buy everything here.”
“Used to be awesome. Now not so much. Couple reasons. They no longer buy a lot of my clothing and not sure why. It’s crazy cause I take it to Plato’s after I get the deny from Threads and I get $$$ from Plato’s versus Threads. Also not to much items that stick out for me to buy. Any who still love y’all and hope it’s stay cool n enough to keep me coming back.”
“Absolutely the BEST resale shop I have ever shopped at!! Can't wait to get back to Victoria to see what other goodies they have gotten in. I highly recommend.”
“EXCELLENT selection. WONDERFUL staff. FAIR prices. What more could you ask for!?
I recently went on an adventure to EVERY SINGLE thrift store in Corpus Christi and I can say with certainty that this specific Goodwill was the best. They had the largest selection, it was all highly organized, and the prices were actual thrift store prices. The young man who checked us out was efficient and friendly. It was VERY busy when I visited (seems everyone else knows this is the place to be too!) and some pleasant songs were playing at a good volume.
I will absolutely be coming back here!”
“I have recently started going as I am very early in my pregnancy. The ladies there are always working diligently and super polite. It is very easy to see that they have A LOT of workload in front of them. Honestly an overwhelming amount and yet they still have greeted me with a smile and warmth whether I’m walking in or I am next in line. I feel they are all doing their best and I am excited to continue to come in throughout my pregnancy and shop here.”
“This is a local gem that had great prices and great finds. It is clean and the staff are friendly. Best of all is the good that they do for the community. They are affiliated with The Catery which offer pet vaccines and sterilization at discounted rates. I have been donating and purchasing from them for years. It is a pet friendly business where you can bring your fur babies for some shopping. My fur babies get lots of love from the staff and enjoy coming along to pick out some toys. Retail Therapy also offer a rewards program for discounts on their already affordable items. Be sure to check them out and ask about Templeton.”
