Referencing some of the other reviews: yes the prices are high on some items. You HAVE to work this store's sales: every major holiday, all is 30% off. On Wednesdays, if you are 50+, three colors of tags are half priced on clothes and some accessories. About the staples: yes they annoy me. You can however 99% of the time carefully remove them at home by prying the legs of the staple up with a sharp knife and gently remove the staple from the garment. STILL ANNOYING. PLUS SIZED clothes are separated for both women (Queen section) and men (Big and Tall). This is awesome. They have a discount jewelry case with green X marking half-off the regular price. They separate out the quality clothing (coldwater creek, chico's, etc) into a Boutique Aisle (pink tags) which means less time sorting through lesser quality items. NOTE: ALBUQUERQUE HAS A HUGE NUMBER OF THRIFT STORES. Each has a different system for pricing, discounts, and how items are sorted. This store is not for everyone, but it has a large dedicated following of regular customers. CASH ONLY is mildly irritating but i just make sure to hit the CU-ATM 1/4 mile south on Juan Tabo before I go inside. On Friday's the adjacent Furniture warehouse is open. Most items there are really in sad shape, strange to see that owned by same people. But i don't go there for furniture!!

Always leaving with something

I've been going to the Family Thrift Center for 3 years now. I had never bought anything used before. I had a certain stigma set in my head about new-to-you items.Of course when it comes to clothing, or anything for that matter, i still only buy the best of the best and its a hunt sometimes, but worth it in the end. My favorite purchase is a popcorn popper. the old pot ones that you have to turn the handle to keep the popcorn from burning. we make an event of homemade stove-top popcorn every time we watch a movie together. We go 3-4x a year and have found some cool stuff. Only one thing didn't work, but now I know to ask someone if I can plug in something electronic before I buy it.
