Fresno Rescue Mission Thrift Store and Cars

I put a hold on a Honda lawn mower, because I had no way of transporting it at the time. So I paid the money in advance, and said, I’ll be back in two days with a pickup truck. The day I was to pick it up, they said, they sold it, or misplaced it. I don’t think the sales person did her job by saying it was «sold». When I go to get my money back, I don’t even get an apology from the sales person for the mistake that she made. I WILL NEVER BUY ANYTHING HERE AGAIN!!! I don’t these people can run a lemonade stand!

This is my favorite place to buy books! They’re dangerously cheap (usually 0.25 each) I have never left with less than 3 books and usually buy a bag or two full of ‘em…hmmm, maybe I oughta get a bookshelf next time.

Wow this place has a huge library! All of their books are categorized by genre and the prices are great. This is a great discovery. I just wish I knew this place was here earlier. It blows the salvation army and goodwill libraries away.
In the eternal words of Arnold, «I’ll be back»

Had a lot to donate but the first thing i pulled out of the truck was a small computer desk. The guy had so much attitude and said, we dont need that. I was so offended i took all the other stuff over to Goodwill where the guys were polite and grateful. Will no longer give to or shop with FRM shops.

I am very pleased with the selections of used items for sale at this location. I even bought a perfectly wonderful king size down blanket for $ 6.00. I will return again.

I have been to this thift store a few times over the years and I must say it is a above average shop with a wide variety of items for sale. the selection of books they have is great, my wife and I spent over an hour in this section and found more than a handful of books we wanted. The book section of this store is by far the best part of the store. The rest of the store could use a little organization and some help. A few items I picked up to look at were filthy and I could not see myself wearing anything from this place (and don’t get me wrong most of my wardrobe comes from thift shops and garage sales). The free popcorn for the kids is great and I think helping people get back on their feet is a noble cause, but I think the place has a very cluttered feel to it. The cool thing about this place is that they do have cars and boats for sale. So what I’m getting at is please stop in and check out the BOOKS

We donate here a few times a year. Very worthy organization that is Christ centered and helps folks that would otherwise be walking out into the street pick themselves up.
Can’t say enough good things about their important work in our community.
Praise God for their mission and helping to restore dignity to men and women!

Worst customer service EVER!!! I have been a supporter and donating to the Mission for years now. NOT ANYMORE! The store stinks of cigarettes, the male employees stare and follow you around trying to «make friends». No one can answer simple questions without an attitude. I was very very disappointed and had been warned by others about the way the employees treat and talk to customers. I will not go back again… ever!

This Is a really neat thrift store, which is tucked away by the DMV on Blackstone and Sierra. There is a lot of different items to choose from. Clothing, housewares, furniture, toys, etc. The inventory varies depending on what is donated, so it’s good to stop by frequently to see what items have been added.

I went to this store for the second time this weekend and i’m becoming a fan of it. There is always a sale of some type going on (i.e. wed & sat is 50% of clothing marked $ 2 and up). Like others have said, this is a huge store and they have a good selection of things whether it be clothing, appliances, furniture, books. I usually go to check out the clothes and spend about 3 hours there. I love that this store has a changing room to try on the clothing to make sure it fits. I think they rearranged it a bit since the first time i was there. the book area and shoe area are more organized than the first time i was there. i def can’t wait to go again.
fyi: if you find the fan page on Facebook, they post the sale of the day.

If you like to read fiction, and you’re looking to score some books on the cheap, then this is where you need to go. Of course, if you’re not looking to buy books you can find clothes, picture frames, furniture, housewares, appliances (I scored a nice little coffee/​spice grinder for a buck), or even a car!
As I mentioned earlier though, there are a lot of books here. I think their book selection is leaps and bounds better than any other thrift stores in Fresno, and I believe they’re priced at 50 cents for paperbacks and a dollar for hardbound books (unless otherwise marked, and they rarely are).
There are a few sections of the store that could be arranged or organized better, but I understand how things could get messy really quickly here. They have a lot of stuff.

I’ve found some really neat stuff here! They have a tremendous selection of clothes, shoes, toys, household items, and some furniture. Not to mention the cars! Sometimes they get really decent cars there… I’ve even seen an older Escalade for $ 8,000. Usually see a lot of older Toyotas, Fords, ect… Their prices can’t be beat and they usually have some kind of sale special going on.

It’s exactly what it says… Huge store with furniture, clothing, housewares, you name it. It’ll take you awhile to sift through everything, but you might come out with a few treasures!
