St Vincent De Paul

I found the coolest stuff there! Friendly clean well organized the staff was brilliant and helpful I wish there were more stars to give!

I love this place! There are many neat stuff to find for the frugal folks like myself. Though, I do become annoyed when they ask to keep my bag behind the counter but I know it’s just a policy. Thanks a lot, shoplifters!

Infested with mold and bed bugs.
Please don’t shop here.
(Because you’ll ruin it for me)
It’s actually my primary source of clothing and gifting amazing vintage finds to my co-​workers.
The staff can be completely rude and will not negotiate anything without a manager (there are never managers available) Get a stamp card if you plan on returning. Check out their calendar for monthly deals.
The fitting rooms are so tiny and filthy I’ve taken to showing up in leggings and just trying stuff on in the isles. With so many bummertown tweekers and completely gross weirdos roaming the isles, nobody bats an eye.
Don’t forget to check out the furniture annex. It’s wayyyy gross and dirty but there are gems in the shadows.

My husband and I stopped at this shop today. I was very impressed. First of all, the staff greeted us very nicely when we walked in the front door. The entire store was impeccably organized and clean. it was light and airy and had a generally good ambiance. The labeling and placing of items was incredible. I was particularly impressed with the crafting corner were even spools of thread were displayed in a very appealing manner. I’m not even a crafter but I found the detail very appealing. The holiday room was quite wonderful as was the toy area. Every item was nicely hung and displayed as well as being reasonably priced. We found several items in the store that we did purchase. I commend whoever is responsible for management of this establishment. You’ve done a stellar job.

This is an interesting thrift shop. I know they don’t sell everything they are given, but they seem to put out a wider variety than other stores. I can find empty pill bottles to store beads. vintage electronics and other hard to find items.
As mentioned above, their pricing is weird. Some stuff goes for pennies, other stuff is priced as if it is new. Two identical items donated on different days will have widely differing prices.
They have no return policy although I was able to return a toy that was marked «works» when it didn’t. Things like that require the manager. Also, if you see something you feel is overpriced, you can see if the manager will reduce the price. It helps if the item has been there awhile. The help is mostly mechanical and are quick to become defensive, even if you’re not offensive.
I like that they take my donations of used plastic grocery bags. At least they get recycled once!
Clean doesn’t seem to be in their vocabulary as any decorating was done in the 80’s and has enough dust to prove it. The rest of the store is clean though. But what do you want in a thrift store anyway?

I’ve been shopping here for over 20 years. This is by far the best thrift store in town. Their prices are fair and it is clean and organized [so easy to find what you need if they have it].
Being a teacher, I’m always attracted to kids’ books – St. Vinny’s sells kids books for 25 – 45 cents a piece. I have purchased most of the books for my classroom library here :). I also get staplers and tape dispensers for under a dollar. Also, pocket folders and clipboards for the kids who may not be able to purchase school supplies.
I love to browse through their kitchen things: containers, bowls, mugs – I don’t know how to describe the plethora of «things» but it’s worth the hunt when you find that special thing.

There is really only one reason I stop by here and it’s to see if they have any vintage electronics floating around (I’m a nerd for keyboards and mixing boards and stuff of that nature). The good news is that I occasionally find some cool stuff for sale here. However, their pricing is all over the place and usually skewers toward the «more than it is worth» side of pricing. There are still some good deals to be found here. The staff has never really been helpful though. The smell of popcorn that fills this place isn’t as appealing as they seem to think it is. Still, it’s worth the occasional stop just to see what they have.

THRIFT STORE JUNKY
Vinny’s (as the locals call it) happen to be my most cherished second hand/​thrift store in bremerton. i find the most fantastic and ridiculous things there… like bloodsport on VHS, some nice black on black wing tips, countless random clothing artifacts ranging from the 70’s till now… etc.
almost every person who works there is a peach… except this one lady, that i have been reassured, doesn’t hate me… even though she seems quite disdainful of me.
best time to go there, hands down, is around halloween… it is a glorious treasure chest of ridiculous (my specialty). i found a male figure skater’s out fit… that moment deserved a fist pump of self congratulations.
one problem, is that like all thrift stores, if they think that they can make more money off of a collectors item, they try. example: they have ⁴⁄₅ NKOTB barbies selling for 12.50 each… i would buy just the donnie… but…they know that i’m the only person in bremerton that wants those (i’ve told them in over dramatically passionate tone many a-​times) and i am not paying $ 12.50 a pop for ‘em.
i refuse to give them a fifth star until the dolls are mine… i doubt that’ll ever happen… so i guess we are at an impasse.

Ah, it’s a thrift store, and you know I love ‘em.
This shop is big, clean (as thrift stores go), and amazingly well organized and tidy. The staff are fine and the prices are fair (as thrift stores go). Not as much clothing as, say, Goodwill or Value Village, and the housewares section is also smaller but the quality is fine.
If you like crafts/​sewing don’t miss their nifty little section in the back corner full of supplies and such. :)
Other stuff:
Plenty of free parking and the restroom is old but very clean – big thanks for that!

I like to thrift shop and look for the old lady chic stuff and this place seems to be a great place to find it. Also they seem to have some quality control process in place– cause they’re electrical items, small appliances and the like all seem to work!
Aside, I donate here all the time it seems– or at least like twice a year, and its never an issue, they take the things and dont complain.
Also I know they’re connected to the food bank, womens shelter and an assistance office– so I know that money I am spending here (or indirectly donating) is going to good causes and to support my local community. I like that.
