| - While some clothes are still sold at the original Salvation Army on Market Street, much of the clothing sales have transferred to this new location on John Street. The store itself might be easy to overlook as it is tucked away in a shopping plaza just off Neil Street, using a space previously occupied by an outdoor supply shop (Wild Country, I think?). Overall, this one is a bit smaller than other thrift stores I've visited though the interior is clean and organized. The store doesn't carry much furniture, but they do have some household goods (e.g., toys, kitchen tools, ceramic decorations, etc.).
I've had pretty good luck with the women's clothing at this store, particularly coats and blouses. The men's section seems a lot smaller (like many thrift stores), with very few clothes that might appeal to college-age students. All clothes are priced as expected for used items (less than $5 for most things), and the store posts notices for any current sales. For people who are reluctant to purchase clothes before trying them on, this new Salvation Army also thankfully has dressing rooms.
