Thrifty Threads

First, the mission. They support the Julian Center, a local shelter for domestic violence survivors and others. Second, the staff. They people collecting donations are always prompt and kind when helping unload donations. The cashiers are equally friendly and helpful. Third, the selection. Yes, this place is stuffed to the gills and maybe a bit hard to navigate, but they have so much stuff! Some cool furniture, very high end gently used purses, and the biggest selection of evening gowns I've ever seen. If you have a special event and don't want to pay a small fortune for a dress, this is where you want to shop.

It's hard to give three stars to a thrift store that has such good intentions. This place supports The Julian Center, which in turn supports victims of domestic violence and their families. I mean, come on. That's pretty great. But three stars means OK, right? This place is A-OK.I wanted to love this thrift store, but instead, I walked away from it thinking it was just fine, in terms of price and selection of clothing. But that's OK. Not every place is for everybody. I'm a seasoned thrift store shopper, and I found the prices a tad on the high end for the selection offered. But maybe you will visit and find the perfect thing for you.Like the name of the store implies, most of the space is devoted to threads. So you'll find mostly women's clothing, and some men's clothing, and even less children's clothing. You'll also find shoes, handbags and accessories. To a lesser extent, you'll also find books, home goods, picture frames, coffee mugs, curtains, sporting goods and a smorgasbord of miscellanea. The people who work here are very friendly and helpful. Some of the more expensive clothing items are locked, so you need to get the attention of someone with a key to unlock it for you. There are people roaming around on the floor, so I easily found someone to unlock the North Face jacket I was eyeing so that I could try it on. It's kind of a bummer that things are locked up, but I guess it is what it is.

Much and changeable variety-- better if you're looking for XX rather than XY gear. Well-organized. Certain prices are clearly insane, but most are very reasonable and the merchandise is in very good to excellent condition.Clothing, household, furniture, jewelry, bric-a-brac, and books are well-organized and sorted. Checkout can take some time, but the volunteers here are cheery and helpful. Located next to Half Price Books. Recommended for thrift store hunters.

Good organization I the store, inflated prices throughout the store which sadly meant there was a 10 minute experience for me. I'm not paying $10 for Kathy Ireland clothes from K-Mart and I will die on that hill. Also taking into the consideration of the parking situation and location of this place. Although I don't live in Indy, I know this location and the parking lot is always busy and the light getting you back onto 86th is always short.

This thrift store supports a good cause...the Julian Center. They carry a range of donated items from household goods to clothing and jewelry. The merchandise is well displayed and clean. You can find antiques, jewelry and interesting vintage items. I never leave empty handed. The staff is friendly and helpful. The prices can be high, but they mark down things after they have been there too long. On Mondays, they offer 20% discount to seniors. It is also a good place to donate items. The money helps support victims of domestic violence. There are no public bathrooms. There is plenty of parking.

I was looking for something other than the usual (i.e. Goodwill) and this store came up in the search results. It's located off 86th Street in a corner of a strip mall but is not hard to find. They had some racks outside of clothing that was 50% off but opted to go inside. I was surprised to see that they had quality (designer?) purses on sale. I wasn't in the market for a purse so perused the clothing and the store as a whole. I did notice that most of their clothing selection was for women but they had some men's clothing too. The only issue I had while perusing the racks is that the clothing is not sorted by size which was overwhelming for me. I did find 3 nice shirts for under $10. I will definitely stop by again when I am in the area.

This unique thrift store helps women in domestic violence locally through the Julien Center. I initially thought it would just be clothes but was surprised to find there's a little bit of everything available! The employees were friendly and helpful. I'll be back!

I really like thrifty threads! I come into see what unique items they have and this is my go to donations spot. They support the Julian Center and their mission. The store has clothing, housewares, furniture, and other random bits. The store is smaller than goodwill locations and the employees are kind. There are nice quality items in the store and there is always a lot to look at. They also have some higher end items that have been donated and you can get at a good price, but higher than you would expect at a thrift store.

there somet for everyone here, you just have to be patient and search. The prices seem a little high for donated items and it being a thrift store. Generally a pleasant shopping experience until you get to the counter and interact with the rudest cashier in town! She's very abrasive and condescending. I don't know how she's still there!

Love shopping at Thrifty Threads & supporting our community! You never know what treasurers you'll find & for a great cause!
