Most items over priced ,but they do have a half off day, thTs the only time I would prefer .the workers are polite, but many stores seem to be hiking up prices , when the economy is facing hard times. I think stores would do better if they had more inexpensive things and prices, since the thrift stores get things donated.

Love this place! Frequent customer for 35 years! It's amazing how many treasures are hidden in this small thrift store. The owner is always helpful when I'm needing costume advice or ideas for an outfit. She is very knowledgeable and an awesome seamstress herself!

Super friendly woman running the shop, I think she said her mom bought the store back in the 70s and she'd been running it for a while. There is a very good selection of men's and women's clothing. If you're looking for a place to buy board shorts I'd go here, as opposed to buying a new pair at outrageous prices at the local surf shops. They had a lot to choose from and everything is almost brand new.

Make it a habit to buy and shop locally, but this place is a disaster. The owner is rude, crude, and has the charisma of a cornered rat. Her customer service is not lacking, it's non-existent. Most of the clothes look worn and dirty. I try to give a place three tries, gave this one four but NO more. First I was told they deal only in "surf" attire, second time found the shop cluttered and haphazard, passed by the night of the holiday parade the third time and picked up an "ugly" sweater from a helpful young girl, tried to return it a few days later w/o wearing it (price tag still attached) and owner offered me $7--paid $25! I don't mind a discounted return, but really? At any rate she cursed and squawked at me saying "you bought it, you bought it" until I asked her if she ever had repeat customers...I think not. Goodwill is a far better bet. And please, do NOT think this woman is representative of North County.

Wonderful thrift store! Love shopping here. Great pricing and solid selection. They usually have incredible clearance prices as well as good non-sale pricing--I've never felt as though prices were too high, even on the non-sale sections. Owner is also very friendly and sweet. Check it out! They have good standard fare, but also have enough new stock to warrant stopping in every few weeks at least. :)

I have loved this store forever because they have something cute always that actually looks good on me. The cheap rack in front is my favorite. I scored on a vintage pair of Dior sunglasses there....or , maybe that was somewhere down the road ??? I forgot. I think it was there ! Love them

I'm not sure if they are related to the Thrifty Threads in Vista which I've used before for some polyester pants, but it has that usual thrifty vibe. That strange smell you'd not quite sure of. That garage saley moth ballish musk that comes from other people's stuff. I rarely come into places like this except for costumes, get ups or theme specific attire, but while walking by drunk one night from Saloon and D Street I happen to see what I thought to be gold. Yes, quite festive ugly Christmas sweater's. More than I had seen at Goodwill's and the DAV combined. I decided to come back sober. With high expectations in mind I found out they only rent their good stuff in order to keep the inventory stocked. Now there's nothing wrong with renting, but at what point to you simply buy a tux instead of rent one for the full price of buying? Heck most of my previous sweaters we're $20.00 or less and even a new hand knit one was $40.00 so to hear they don't sell the cream of the crop ugliest sweaters was odd. I get the business aspect of it all, but if your renting them for $15.00 and selling most lesser ugly sweaters for less than that I don't get what is to stop someone from renting and not returning. Perhaps if the fee was like $200.00 then that would be discouraging, but rather than finding gold I found fools gold here. I now have 3 mediocre sweaters bought from all over and nothing quite what I wanted. It's the fact I can't customize the already ugly sweater if it's a rental I was checking out some pants and I found some decent deals, many distressed jeans and most unaltered (the worst is when you find a 33, but the inseam is 29). Hawaiian cabana shirts for men make up the majority of the selection of shirts, but they do have quite a bit of Hurley, Quicksilver and other popular skating brands. What caught me by surprise was I wasn't aware Dickies made a slim fit mens pant, but I found a few here, almost a classic chino cut instead of the roomier traditional cut. Perhaps if I was still 20 or still did construction I'd consider buying a new version of it, but they had quite a few womens handbags and mens jackets. Perhaps it's the socal weather and the proximity to the beach and the price of living her that causes people to sell what I would think would be highly valued for each gender.

Can't say I do a lot of thrift shop shopping, but this place was great for an ugly Christmas sweater! You can buy or rent (24 hour rental for a party). They really do up the rentals with lights and all sorts of stuff. Will I do a lot of shopping here, probably not. But with having the sweaters covered I will definitely consider this place for other stuff in the future.
