Purple Manatee Resale Shop

Thrift store

👍👍 I've always had a great experience at Purple Manatee! The staff are always customer-focused! And, Claudia, I've adopted her as my personal shopper. She knows my style and provides the best recommendations. I've never come out empty handed because the store always has a great selection of clothes...

Gather & Collect

Gift shop

😠 As a mother of two who recently wandered into this store with my daughters, I was appalled at some of the crude and vile things for sale. We teach our children to be kind, understanding and accepting of all people. Yet many of the items displayed for sale---at eye view of children---were unkind, una...

Treasure House Resale Shop

Thrift store

😐 They have some really awesome pieces and everything is reasonably priced, all for a good cause. Sales on Wednesdays are also great. I would give the store 4 stars based on these things alone. HOWEVER, and this is a big caveat, the fact of one fitting room (not unusual in a store like this) and, mos...

2nd is the NEW 1st

Thrift store

👍👍 This is THEE best thrift store around! I’ve been shopping here since they opened four years ago! I’ve purchased so many amazing gently used pieces, and even more brand new pieces! The best part about it all is that the new pieces are sometimes 20-50% off what I would’ve paid from the original retail...

Sparrow's Nest Thrift Store and Donation Center

Thrift store

😠 Great charity but they just let the entire staff go at the palatine location. No explanation given and HR doesn’t respond. We were coldly told to get our things and get out, not sure why?
