The prices have gone up for used products. Goodwill has better prices. I bought a jacket for 3.99 and waterfront wanted 12.99 for the same kind of jacket .

My mom and I stop in there when Im in town. Every time we go, we find the prices outrageous. Today for example we found a plastic shoebox for 2.99. And a second one for 3.99 and both are normally sold at the dollar tree! Last time we stopped in we found a cooker with no lid or heating element an priced at 10.00. To be fair it did have the power cord. Today we did buy books for 10/2.00....atleast it wasnt a total waste of time.

Well organized and clean with wonderful staff. I put the wrong pants back on the rack that I needed for work and a staff member gladly let me exchange it. I find wonderful things at good prices I need and make it a weekly thing my husband and I do. I always look forward to it.

The store was playing really awful christian music & there was some sort of large white man with an american flag hat that worked there that stared me down. pretty gross ✋🏻

I like it. The books should be on shelves instead of being in huge boxes, I guess we will never know what books are down there. Most of the prices are good, just a few amazingly high ones that will keep those products there for a long time. Most of the staff are nice and willing. The store is clean, a big plus.

Clean and fairly well organized. Staff was pleasant and helpful. My biggest let down was all the books in boxes like a walmart DVD bin. Several had been damaged in these and left me not looking to take them home.

Call them for a donation pickup.... they came with no problems.... they did a good job more than American thrift store did and denied our acceptance of a donation....will donate all pickups to them....😎😎😎

Review №27

Friendly staff and clean store considering the eclectic selection of items for sale. Might stop visiting considering Ive overheard what changes corporate are starting to implement. Dont be surprised when it becomes as messy as Dirt Cheap after the changes take effect. Its like they are trying to run off all their good employees.

We went shopping at Waterfront Rescue Mission Thrift Store today for the first time. It was an awesome experience! ☺️ The prices there are cheaper than other thrift stores. The store was clean and roomy. There was plenty of space in between the clothes, making it easier to go through. I will start shopping there more often. 🙂

Neat, orderly and reasonably priced. Staff was friendly. However some clothing items were mingled within items that indicated one size but were not.Sure over time that will get better. Keep up the good work!

I come in this store for good deals every now and then and the employees at least know how to treat their regulars. Unlike another thrift store I go too. I been going to this one for about 3 months and always get what I pay for and the associates are friendly as well.

Waterfront mission thrift store in Mobile, Alabama is a thrift store one can trust. The staff takes time out to actually listen to the customer. Staff welcomes all regardless of lifes Downfall. No one ieaves the store without a genuinely given smile and hopes for another day to reunite again. Wheelchair accessible. Dog friendly and religious music playing in the building. Do recommend those who are lonely, hungry and/or depressed to visit waterfront thrift store

Review №48

Love the water front stores. However the mobile wasnt as warm and friendly as the Florida stores we shop more regularly. Also a bit more pricey too. So not quite worth the hour drive out there for attitude and spend a bit less closer to home.

Review №49

Crazy expensive for some designer items- clutch your pearls and try not to faint!- but a worthy cause, cool selection, and oh yeah- the SALES!When I was last in, everything with a blue tag was sixty-nine cents.Say whaaat? 😜 I was like, *everything*?! And they were like, EVERYTHING.I came out with a pretty nice haul, donut maker, juicer, dog toenail grinder- it was wild. Have fun!

Review №53

The cashiers are so sweet. I enjoy going in and walking around seeing what I can buy I dont need...lolOnly thing for awhile pricing on items have jumped sky high. Ive seen many things higher there then they cost brand new. Several things thats at Dollar Tree but there they have priced 1.99. I know money helps people which is why I continue to shop at Thrift stores. But common sense you make more money when your selling more for less, then selling less for more. And we are, talking used stuff.Store is pretty clean and always well decorated.

Asked the manager to lower the price on a framed picture that was banged up and had water damage. She refused and explained that everything in the store was overpriced because at some point it would be 50% off. That is not a good way to run a business. Wont be back.
