St Lawrence Thrift Store

Wear your mask

Been coming here for years! One of the great things about this place is a lot of donations come from Park City & Deer Valley (rich wigs). Have bought like 10 pairs of Seven for Mankind jeans for under 10$ ea, among other things.❤❤❤

We were looking for a place to donate some gently used kitchenware from a place we recently purchased. We were so happy to find that the St. Lawrence Thrift Store was accepting donations, and we drove to the old chapel to drop off the 5 boxes of glasses, plates, cups, pots, and pans. We pulled into the parking lot around 11:45am, and it was completely empty except for one car. Since we just had a few boxes and they were full of breakable items, we backed the car up to the door and hopped out to unload. A woman then came flying out of the door and snapped, "Can you NOT park right there? Ok." And then she turned to leave. Stunned, we asked, "Wait, why? We just have a few boxes to unload." She turned around, sighed loudly, and said, "We get SO many cars here, and your car is going to block them. Plus our truck is going to arrive at ANY second now. You can't block everyone." I'm not generally one to respond to people like this, but I had to this time. "Are you serious?" I asked, as I gestured to the wide, empty lot. "We literally only have 5 boxes to unload. We honestly would be done by now if you'd let us." "FINE. But hurry up!" And then she turned and left. Had the truck arrived at that exact moment and we had been in the way, we would have happily pulled our car 20 feet forward. That would have delayed the truck by approximately 20 seconds. Also, there would have been plenty of space for the truck to get by, since, again, there was ONE other car in the parking lot. I'm glad to know that our donations didn't go to her, specifically. I know that they're going to other people that will make good use of these items. But I don't think I've ever encountered such a caustic employee at a donation site - especially one attached to a church. It was a supremely unpleasant experience.

We love coming here and always leave with some great vintage treasures, old books or name brand clothing! It's organized well, friendly staff, and clean. Wish we lived closer so we could come more often!

This is such a wonderful store! And they have adapted so seamlessly to the social distancing requirements. A very pleasant thrifting experience!
