Thrift Stores near Lorton, VA

“I have received the best services at this facility starting from the emergency financial assistance department down to the food distribution department. All the people that work at this facility are very helpful, kind and very considerate. All the people that work at this facility also walk that extra mile to give you all the help that you need at the time. Thanks for all that you do for me! God bless!”

“An absolute lovely gem in our community. They always have stuff that make my visits worthwhile. The employees are kind and helpful. I love their rotating discounts!”

“Prime time has great merchandise and a lot of it.
The staff is very helpful.
It is also quite clean considering the amount of foot traffic it has.
It's conveniently located, being immediately off Richmond Hwy.
There is a different sale every day of the week.
Some thrift shops put on the floor all the items they receive, so buyers need to thoroughly examine merchandise. I have never found the need to do this with purchases from Prime Time. Lastly, the profits help the veterans, who protect us.”

“small & homey feeling store, comfortably and wide selection of clothes and houseware, incredible cost to value. the wonderful ladies volunteering are eager to assist, as well to compliment your new fit.”

“Good prices, usually has fun finds, large store to peruse through. Cons- terrible checkout system and usually a huge line because they don’t have enough cashiers. They have self checkout but it actually takes longer bc of here’s usually some issue you have to wait for help with. Some of their items need a good cleaning before you use them- they aren’t that selective with that. Prices are randomly assigned sometimes and you can find the same item with multiple prices (like any thrift store). Bring your own bag- they charge for them.”

“I remember when savers first opened and it was always a pop in place to go especially on certain days of the week when they had particular deals for the things that you were looking for.
My mom and I go often with my oldest sister, And there have been times when I've found vintage barbies still in their original packaging that was recently marked down and was in mint condition.And if you're a collector this is a great place to start.

I typically don't take pictures when I shop because I feel like it's an invasion of privacy of public areas but that's just an opinion. But I was letting you know this because I don't have any to contribute.
One thing that I like about this location is that they have fitting rooms available for you to try on clothes before you buy them.
Because many thrift places do not allpw exchanges or returns, I always suggest you try your clothes on before you buy them just to save yourself.Some money in the long run.
Happy shopping!”

“This is one of the most upscale and most expensive thrift stores I ever went to on a military base & in general. The staff is one of the most professional and knowledgeable in customer etiquette and in organizational & pricing skills. They are very thorough in curating & displaying high quality items, researching the items displayed, and placing a fair price on items sold. Some of the items are priced at what may seem outrageously expensive yet it is not. Mint condition or well known high quality items are priced at 50% (most of the time) of their selling price online used or new ( at this thrift store’s highest amount price). I found an elegant Mikasa bowl for $8 there that seemed over priced, yet it is selling for $60 online used and a discontinued style.If you want dirt cheap and super low prices, you are better off going to a yard sale, typical thrift store, gimme a five, or general dollar store for a bargain or steal if you want items at a low price. If you are looking to resell items for profit, I would NOT recommend this place as well. According to my experience, the most superb deals and low priced items sold here are usually low key high quality luxury brands and not desired or well known by the general public.Once in a blue moon, you will find rare and spectacular items at a stellar price; even though, you might not realize it until you research or know the item’s worth. I have purchased a vintage Rolex brand leather - brand new wallet with fine detailed & metal engraved hardware for only $4 there. I just bought it because it was red, real leather, and well made. I also found a low key yet high quality British luxury brand - new leather - wallet for $3.75 there too. Retro style curvy wood bar chairs for $35 each - was one of my most desirable finds here. I couldn’t find the exact chair online because it might be vintage or no longer manufactured. The closest duplicate to it was priced at $244 a chair and had an unattractive cut out design on the chair back.Their book selection is always amazing and always have a buy two books & get one free deal. I always find the best giant coffee table photography books there and fascinating books. Another rare yet wonderful find here is vintage vinyl records in mint condition for $1 each.It took me a long time to write a review for this store, because I didn’t think it was like your usual thrift store. It seemed that most of the items I was drawn to were consignment boutique or antique store prices - not at my price range except for the books and certain items. I realized this thrift store excels in customer service and had a lot of hidden gems & high quality items in the end that people usually disregard.”

“This is a small store that always impresses me with the high quality of clothing available. Most of their clothing is priced at either 3/$10 or 3/$20, and are sorted by price and type on the racks; these garments don't have price tags, which avoids the holes often created by other thrift stores. Shoes, coats, accessories and some boutique items are priced a bit higher than most other thrift stores, but the quality and condition tend to be higher also. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. The Latin music is cheerful and upbeat, not too loud. The store is clean and well-organized. A hidden gem in Woodbridge that has rapidly become my favorite thrift store.”

“They have a wide variety of clothing and household items. There is a big collection of pet supplies, lots of harnesses and collars plus small animal supplies. Prices are either on the item or listed on a sheet at the entrance of each room.”

“This is my favorite Goodwill in the the area. I find that items are more affordably priced here compared to the the Goodwills in Falls Church and Arlington. There are only few items behind the counter so even brand name items are on the floor without any special pricing. I have found Yeezys, Vejas and other high quality shoes for less than $20. Books also have a standard price $0.99 for soft covers and $1.99 for hardcovers. Furniture here is also extremely affordable. I have seen a sectional prices at $30. Can't beat it! Unfortunately I often see resellers here who hoard items into carts and pick at bins before the are put out. The store should definitely regulate this”

“I purchased the find of the century here, a brand new navy LoveSac sectional that had been previously used in staging. I’ve also found Afghan rugs that did require cleaning but were a very fair price and oyster plates and blue and white china and vintage tennis racquets for decor. They have a fantastic selection of furniture for someone on a budget. Today I spotted two solid wood twin four post beds from a very high end brand. They have a great selection of pre owned doors and cabinets and their mirror selection is good too. The staff and volunteers are very helpful and it’s easy to pull behind the store and have them help you load your items. They treat everyone respectfully. This store benefits a nonprofit so I like keeping items out of a landfill while helping individuals and families secure housing.”

“Usually decent prices and customer service. Lately, some of the employees and customers seem to just be hanging out instead of working or shopping. Prices have skyrocketed to capitalize on trendy thrifting…. I found a hat I liked that had to be marked wrong. Among 20 hats for $3.99, this one was marked $15. Asked for a price check bc mistakes happen. Waited 15 min for a manager that never showed up. Hopefully its just a low period and works itself out.”

“Wonderfully organized Store with easy and efficient donation center, very helpful and efficient staff. Easy receipt for donation if helpful. Very easy and pleasant experience ‼️?‼️”

“I really enjoy perusing the shelves at Acts! This isn’t one of the cheaper thrift stores I’ve been too, but the selection is good and less picked through than the larger stores.”

“i'll guess i'll start with this as a story (my testimonial if you will) so i had just moved from front royal to alexandria in the fifth grade of elementary school (yeah with mrs brown with her catch phrase save the drama for your mama and in hindsight maybe learning it could be a 'sanctuary city') my parents and i were looking for some cleats for weight league football (it was the bucknell tigers i think 75lb the next up from 'ankle biters' as a offensive lineman) and i found a pair that i thought after that all my troubles would be gone (later getting my military benefits that solved basically everything) so today i have my military benefits (eg paycheck healthcare health insurance etc) and am a mostly happy worry free veteran (a huge part as a kid was mil beneficiary kids in public school guiding me to maybe a better future to hear warnings or suggestions too) maybe things like those cleats helped me get to where i am today (home owner too and a pretty good car that i have to pay off) it was actually a red pair of baseball cleats but i wore them for a few games and got my parents money's worth out of it and met a neighboring business in the process and they were warm gracious and kind and realso there's three personalities (i think those are all the 'old heads' here) i like here a korean veteran a light skinned manager and a black female cashier they're all very helpful and charming and inject style and taste to this place with good personalities and good attitudesso through the years i've had some great times here for example i remember once before i left for the army i found a awesome unisex leather jacket (it was dark red and had stitches all up the back and may have been a little like brad pitt in fight club before rethinking if that was a good movie or not) while i was rock and roll skinny (btw there were many things i saw here that i wanted that i was certain would help me i don't know if it was the kindness of charitable donors or social workers community efforts to guess but there's been times where their selection really nailed it) later when i was about to move to luray i found another leather jacket that was pretty chill um it reminded me of a picture of a newer music group i saw twice the orwellsone story was when i was on cavalier drive which is sort of a famous neighborhood in a way that's where there's some long term locals at like i think the founder of the 29 skate crew thing so i saw one family (the wife of a couple who lived really long) would regularly come here and load up with that in mind what i later thought was if it works for them it'll work for me so when i was having my awesome lively artistic days on the block (regular dc nightlife or hobbies too ergo family barbeque movies i shot) i'd come here and load up on some stuff to bring home sometimes just the novelty of it but there were times where i'd really read into it and think 'this is a great deal' 'this looks like this will actually work' 'this is really thought provoking' 'this'll probably circulate and it'll get used' 'yeah that makes sense' 'that saves me some time' 'this is better than the alternative'there could be a lot of good aspects and traits (firm prices quality goods rarities um) here that i appreciated i found some vinyl records for exampleam vets are by the fort hunt neighborhood and the newer costco i've rode my bicycle here before it's farther from outside the gate of fort belvoir it's off rt 1 it's on sherwood hall lane also it's by some section 8 housing and a church and police department too and the library is further outi've donated here before and thought that was probably rewarding too also the military style here is cool to think of that influence some korean things i really like are the barbeque another would be the celeb irwin winkler he did rocky”

“This is THE place to buy furniture!! You have to be patient and go often to find exactly what you’re looking for but eventually it will come and you can scoop it up for a reasonable price. I’ve been shopping here for 30 years and I always walk away with a treasure!!”

“Not your typical thrift store. It is upscale but very well displayed and organized housewares, clothing, books, decor, etc donated by people to benefit Inova hospital.”

“Cleanest thrift store I've been to, with a wide selection of clothes and pictures. The staff is also really friendly and helpful. I hope they can add more home items in the future.”

“Gyselle the worker (idk if I spelled her name right) is so kind. Really went above and beyond to make sure my experience was 10/10. Give that girl a raise ?? So helpful, her customer service was unmatched.”

“Took a chance on finding some hidden gems in the furniture section. They have a whole room dedicated to furniture! I found an almost new couch, sofa table and two end tables, and pillows, all for 300 bucks!! You’ll never beat this deal! The gentleman working there also gave me a persons name to transport the furniture to my home. It was a perfect day!”

“What can I say... Thrifting a.k.a. recycling is the way to go. I can't tell you how many things I find that are brand new with tags & this location is no different.I went in specifically looking for some French onion soup crocks, and I found them in brand new condition $3.99 a piece whatta baaaaahhhgin!This location has a bunch and I mean a bunch of brand new with tags George Mason University spirit wear aka shirts & sweatshirts, so if that's your U then go get some gear here for dirt cheap...waaaay cheaper than the campus store!I will say I find Salvation Army, at times, a bit more expensive than Goodwill or Unique but they also have a different selection so you just need to dig. This location also has a drive-through drop off for donations, which I utilize all the time, and they actually retrieve it from your car for you which is amazing. Profits are re-purposed into the programs that they support and used for the good of all concerned.”

“A good place to give in Dale cityAccording to their website, Goodwill is, “American nonprofit provider of job training, employment placement, and other community services, funded by a network of retail thrift stores. As of 2021, they had over 4200 stores in the United States. A family member was cleaning out their house and wanted to donate so I found this site. It is in a strip of stores on the northeast corner of Dale Hwy and Gideon Drive. It is at the end of the line of stores with an open parking lot fronting all the stores. The inside of the store is fairly large. Items are laid out for easy viewing and access. It was fairly clean. If you are giving items to them, they are very accommodating with carts outside by the curb. When I arrived, there was a staff member who helped me to unload curbside onto the carts. He was very helpful and friendly and even told me some of the items that they could not take. If you need a receipt, just tell the staff and they will get you one for your donation. Overall, it was one of the easiest donation experiences that I have had with any Goodwill location.”

“Lots to choose from here. The store is huge! Even the men’s section has the largest area I’ve seen in all of the thrift stores I’ve ever been to. Good quality merchandise can be found here such as Ralph Lauren, Nike, Adidas, Kenneth Cole etc; The only downfall is that they have closed the dressing rooms and the prices are considerably more than Goodwill. Prices fluctuate from very high to moderate to low. They have specials once in while that will give you 50% off from Friday to Sunday. Other times it will be 50% off on a certain color tag.

I’m assuming this store receives donated clothing so I don’t understand the price gouging to the consumer.”
