New Horizons Thrift Store

I know a lot of people like this thrift store, it's one of the most recommended ones in the area. But I saw a *used* sideboard table priced for $300. $300! You can get NEW furniture cheaper at Walmart. It wasn't even solid wood, it was some wood veneer stuff. I mentioned something at the front and they went hard about oUr MiNiStRy and all of the programs they support. Which is fine and all, but the ministry can ALSO support low income people by not charging offensive prices on items they get for free. God only knows if they really use the money responsibly. (Also the lady who checked me out was standoffish with me from the get go, before I even opened my mouth to say hi.)The expectation, when one donates to a thrift store, is that their items will go to someone else who needs those items at an affordable price. Not that some organization will use the items to do charity gymnastics by overcharging. They should be focused first and foremost on ministering to the low-income people who come to thrift stores to get affordable furniture. Not freaking $300 for a small sideboard buffet. Anyway so I would recommend donating your furniture to the ARC rather than here, if you want to see it actually passed on affordably to families in need. But if you're looking to buy clothes, this is unfortunately probably the better bet in town. I feel gross giving them my money now. I think it's disgusting when any thrift shop takes advantage of donations finance their special interests. Just let people have somewhere affordable to shop; Lord knows we need it in this economy.

I only knew of New Horizons Thrift because I visited the Canon City location every day of our vacation. I was excited to find the store in Pueblo as well. They are well organized and clean. They have a wide variety of clothing, shoes, household items and some food items. Food prices are similar to local retail, clothing is reasonably priced and a nice selection, they do have a weekly 1/2 price tag selection and shoes are priced average thrift with the exception of name brands which may be $14 to $34.99 and maybe a few higher. The higher priced are decent quality for the price you pay. I love the mission of New Horizons and do not mind supporting a business that is giving back to the community.

Now that I am retired, I have time to search for great bargain's. This thrift store is in a new location. Easy to get to, great parking and has the best prices of the other thrifts in Pueblo; Goodwill and ARC.That being said, if you are looking for ski wear, this is the place to go. Nearly new ski wear for all ages. I really couldn't believe it. Lots of beginner's try and give up. Their cloth's are here!!With inflation being what it is you are crazy to shop retail - so many good finds at such reasonable prices. Try and buy . . . you won't be disappointed!

The BEST resale shop. So organized and clean. Friendly staff and a wide variety of merchandise. It's my go-to.

This is the nicest, cleanest, and largest thrift store that I have shopped in. Large varieties of clothing, everything is organized and clean. Great place to shop

Literally love. They have everything and so cheap. I got a crap ton of stuff for less than five dollars.

Inside is extremely well-kept & organized; but these are hardly thrift store prices. Items are NOT marked down to prices that those in need can reasonably afford for a quality item anymore. Something changed.The ministry should not need to get 50-60% of the full price value for FREE donated items you can buy in better condition for less on eBay.As a religious organization who's mission is supposedly to give back, and already gets ample cash donations through the church, this is actually quite disappointing to see. Very sad about this business model.

Dear god, talk about overpriced! Heavily water damaged computer desk was $25?! Lol okkkkkk. Clothing is not good quality yet they charge like it is. My husband is a golfer and went to look through the selection of clubs. The selection is large so that's good but when you're charging over $20 for a club, that's ridiculous. It's insane to say that goodwill is cheaper with better organization than this store. Hard pass in the future.

Everytime I've gone in,I've always found people welcoming and caring. We buy books here to give away to kids, teachers, librarians etc. They are priced very well but love 1/2 off the color of the day. Been shopping there for years and love it.

New horizons used to be the best place to go if you needed something and didn't have alot of cash. Recently, I'm starting to feel like I'm at the Goodwill...in the sense that everything is overpriced now. It's kinda sad. Everything the sell was donated to them. Totally free. 100% profit. Now, much like the Goodwill, they seem to be more concerned with cash profits, rather than helping our community. It's really sad. I don't go there for fun anymore. I used to go a couple times a week. At least there's still the What If Thrift in Florence. That young lady has excellent prices and even a totally free zone! That's how you give back. One star
