  • Warning! This thrift store might shock you. If you expect a dirty cluttered mess with unhelpful employees - this place is different. Deseret Industries is run by the Mormon church. As a result, the employees are Disney-like clean cut, well spoken, polite, and even dorky-goofy. Immediately, that dorky Donny and Marie Osmond song "I'm a Little Bit Country" popped into my head. Anyway, the facility is spacious. There is good lighting. All the clothes are laundered before being put out on shelves, though lots of hands touch these garments. While visiting relative in North Vegas, I had a gardening assignment to transplant some flowering annuals. I was here to look for a used small shovel in decent shape. Didn't find it, so I looked around the store. New stuff supposedly comes in every day. However, few of their stuff was new. Lots of women's and kids things, some furniture, like tables and desks, electronics and old TV's, old shoes, and books can be found. The mens sections have categories like athletic clothing, short sleeve knits, t-shirts, jackets, sweatshirts, and even ties. Hate to say this, but most of their ties are butt-ugly. I've seen ties like this worn on Father's Day only to be quietly donated to places like this. And of all the displays, the ties were the fullest LOL. I browsed through the oft faded, but mostly old and even retro merchandise, like Tommy Hilfiger and Bad Boy, and similar shirts. So that's where my 90's donation ended up LOL. My brother once found a Trek road bike here with no tires and badly scratched up. The employee told him it was found in a drainage ditch in North Vegas, and kept in the police station. After one year, no one claimed it and was donated to Deseret. So my brother bought it for $40, put some new tires and brakes. It's not very pretty, but it rides well. Not a bad operation at all. Actually, the main reason I stayed in here so long was because the outside temp. was 111 degrees F. and it was cool in here. It is a nice operation, though for a thrift store.
