I’m downgrading my previous review based on what I perceive as some serious greediness on the business side of Savers. It used to be you could bring in two plastic grocery-sized bags of clothing & get a tax deduction receipt as well as a coupon for 20% your next purchase. Then they started giving one-month expiration dates on their coupons, then they upped the requirement of how much you had to give and got really stingy, now they have dimensions of the size of bag you have to bring(24″!) and give you a punch card that starts at just 5% off with each sizable donation. Bring in a season’s worth of clothing? You’ll be lucky if you can get them to stamp you up to the 15% off mark. It feels like you are being bled dry — all of this for a place that runs on donations — really off-putting and ugly of them.

By far my favorite local thrift store. I always take in a donation so I can get a discount coupon. This location gets a lot of high end clothing and shoes. Staff is helpful and they seem to turn a ton of merchandise. With a coupon, you don’t mind some of the higher priced stuff. Make sure to ask for your free club card to take advantage of special sales on Mondays.

My dear friend introduced me to Savers a while ago. Until then, I hadn’t even thought about stepping foot in the door. If only I had known what I was missing! I can’t tell you how many J. Crew, Chicos, Loft, Ann Taylor, etc. clothing I’ve scored here. Just got back today from their 50% off clothing sale… again found some amazing bargains at even more amazing prices. Almost new Banana Republic cardigan for $ 4.00…yes, please. I’ve also found household items like the large(16×24) cross-stitched Lord’s Prayer professionally matted and framed for $ 2.50(no lie). I’m still talking about that find.

Ok, I admit, I may have been a bit harsh before. Ok some things are priced very badly and randomly and some quite bizarrely but I see where I went wrong before. You can not simply just go to Savers on any given day, that is a surefire way to spend more than you want. Savers hosts special discount days for card carrying members(the card is free, just ask!) and on those days you can get up to 50% off with your membership. I only go on these days and I have scored huge deals on some amazing stuff. I am not an official Savers convert and I don’t see any signs of going back.

Love, love, love Savers. For Ogden thrifting, it’s as good as it gets. I love their furniture, housewares and toys. I have found some amazing things there, like a solid wood kitchenette for my daughter and the most badass Carmen San Diego board game ever! The prices can’t be beat and the selection is great.
