Angel Shop-Angel Society of Fallbrook

I would love to leave a 5 star review but I am deducting stars for reasons that follow. This store would be my favorite thrift store otherwise! They have mostly quality items at a reasonable price. My issues: 1) I almost ALWAYS have to ask for a receipt and when I ask for it (business purposes) you can usually hear the audible sigh of annoyance.
2) Having a cash only policy is so annoying and inconvenient.
3) They close exactly at 3 pm, but in reality they will close the upstairs easily 15 minutes prior. It doesn’t matter that they have customers up there shopping. Yesterday I was looking at something and they literally shut the lights off on me and then told me that they were closing. I followed the elderly lady down the stairs and she actually closed the door IN MY FACE. I opened it and closed it behind myself following her example. I immediately received a verbal thrashing from another lady who works there while other customers looked on. Unbelievably rude and uncalled for. Meanwhile, I’m trying to explain though I couldn’t get a word in edgewise. The elderly lady didn’t intervene although she was only a few feet away. After she was done, I told her I was closing the door because their employee had… she apologized, but too late!
I don’t care of you are volunteers or not. There is no reason to not act like you are running a legitimate business and follow basic business rules. You are representing a wonderful organization – be proud and act like it.

This thrift store is clean, organized, and the staff is helpful. It has a nice assortment of clothing and things. The money is given back to the community which is a plus in my book.
