      I really liked this little thrift store. It was clean and the man staffing the store was very nice. I did find a pair of banana republic slacks $3.00 for my husband. They had a very good selection for men with nice brands. The place was not real big, but what I saw I liked.

      We love YEP soooooooo much! Lovely items with rock bottom prices. The staff is really great, and I love the concept of job training for young people that work there. Hidden gem!

      Best thrift store for clothes especially, ever. They especially have a lot of brand new T-shirts that were created for different events for sale of like $1. This is a place worth stopping in once a week.

      I love thrift shopping (way before Macklemore made it cool). So I have been on a venture to check out all the spots around town. I must say YEP Thrift Works is reasonably priced (some spots really jack up their resale values). The staff is beyond friendly and hospitable. I have been twice and each time found items I really like (chunky necklaces & cute dresses). As always with shopping, sometimes there's a miss but they seem to keep nice things in stock here.

      Added bonus, YEP helps at risk, under served Youth. Go check out their website to read more about it!

      Not only a great organization but great thrift shop. Marc, the manager, runs a clean, organized store. Courteous and professional. Prices are very affordable.
      I enjoy shopping and donating here.

      I love thrift shopping! This place is awesome because they are kind of choosy about what they put on the racks. I found three fashionable dresses for $5 each, and even spied a few that still had tags. Plus, the money goes to a good cause. I'm pretty sure this is going to be my new #1 thrifting location.

      I was leaving a meeting at the Zeitgeist when this cute little shop caught my eye with their items on the sidewalk. I love a thrift store so, of course, I stopped in.

      I was immediately greeted by a man working here, whom I believe was the shop owner. He was really friendly and made me feel welcome and I couldn't wait to start exploring. The shop is small, but they have a nice selection of items here for both men and women, both casual and a little "fancy". I was also impressed by their wide selection of shoes that look as if they have barely been worn. Everything is fairly priced and very affordable.

      I didn't get anything on this day, because I was in a bit of a rush and didn't take the time to search the racks properly, but this shop is definitely on my radar and I'll be back soon.

      First to Review

      I stumbled upon this little shop while walking around the neighborhood of my AirBnb. This is one of those places where you can't rush. You have to bend over, search through bins and look everywhere. Hard work will be rewarded. I searched out a beautiful garden floral motif throw pillow that looked super high quality and priced at $3. Later I found a Mackenzie-Childs tag inside...um, hello...$150 pillow. Also scored a pair of Fluevog heels for I think $10.

      The older guy who was working when I first walked in was so friendly. I was the only person in the store and he and I chatted like old friends for 45 minutes. I was there so long that I meet the two young people working the closing shift. Super sweet and friendly, too. If I lived closer, I'd be their best customer!
