American Thrift Store II

When this location first opened it was pretty nice and the prices were really low but now the place has gone downhill alot. Its not very clean or organized and prices have gotten out of control. Many old junky broken items at retail new pricing.
My major complaint is that they use permanent black thick sharpie markers to price items so whatever you buy will pretty much always have that price showing. Hard to buy a gift for someone etc with a big black marker price on it. I find it funny the place is so worried about people stealing stuff they got for free.
The employees are nice for the most part. The majority do not speak a word of english so communicating can be difficult if you do not speak spanish.
The place is fun to people watch though, there is this weird old lady that is there every single time I have gone and she thinks all the merch is hers and gets mad if you take something off her shelf. lol… Comical!

This store has improved so much since they first moved in. Now, I think it would be hard to find a real thrift store that’s better than this.
The biggest improvement has been that they opened up the upper level and moved all the furniture and bigger home décor up there. It really opened up the lower floor and there is more room to move around between the racks of clothing.
If you want a bargain, this is definitely the place to check out. A couple of weeks ago, my daughter got 3 pairs of designer jeans in new condition (which would have been over $ 500 at Nordstrom) for $ 10! But, unless you’re a senior citizen, beware of Wed. While there are specials every day, Wed. is senior day and it get really crowded.
The only issue is that the dressing rooms are really small, but for the kind of savings you get, it’s worth it.

Too big of a store for the items they have. The kitchen items are so minimum. Too many clothes racks to even want to look around. Purses were broken and high priced.
Marshals, Ross, TJ Max has cheaper prices on some of the items I saw here. Not a repeat customer.

Bought a Hewlitt Packard USB keyboard for $ 3. I have bought other items there too. I see lots of good stuff there at good prices

I live down the street from here. I’ve had a few horrible experiences. The first time I was there I was trying clothes on in the fitting room and they turned off the lights while I was changing and announced they were closing. I almost fell and had to use my phone to see! I was so upset.
On another occasion, I purchases something and they left the security tag on it. I did not notice until I got home. Guess they don’t really ring an alarm. I had to drive back the following weekend because by the time I am off of work they are closed because they close so early.
Overall store ambiance is OK, kinda dirty and disorganized. Could be way better but I guess the owner doesn’t care. Prices tend to be okay, some things are overpriced but if you go when there is a sale you’ll be fine.
Employees are not the friendliest.

This is a new thrift store to our area. The space used to be a Carl’s Furniture so the building is quite large. The merchandise only takes up the first floor, leaving the second floor for more of a storage place for items. Of course with any thrift store you have to dig through everything to find special items. I personally don’t have the patience to dig through all the racks for great deals, but I have found a couple cute Disney shirts for under $ 5. Everything is pretty organized according to type of clothing/​color and department. Sizes are all mixed making it kind of frustrating when you find something you really like but it’s not in your size. Of course while shopping at any thrift store, if you find something you like, grab it and decide later. If you don’t most likely when you go back it won’t be there. There are different colored tags on each item and depending on the day, that color tag is discounted even more. Merchandise is always changing and this thrift store also takes those clothes you want to donate as well as anything from shoes, bags, bedding, books, furniture, jewelry and kitchen items. It’s always fun to go through the racks and find exciting stuff that you never thought you needed or wanted.

The right music makes me wanna buy. 80s music makes me wanna buy thrift. Take note. Been here a few times but not much success BUT its a huge space very nicely laid out and organized. Its a nice option and addition to their flagship store.
It would be super if:
Aisles were clearly marked.
More parking (Fridays there are threats of towing).
Fitting rooms.
Merchandise wasn’t destroyed with magic markers.
Price points were lower and more comparable to other thrift stores. Inventory that is sitting is not profitable. They have warehouses full of it.
Seperately by sizes.
Management visit a Goodwills and do what they do. They have it down to a science.

So I like to shop at thrift stores to find luxury items for less and that is what I do. I’ll show you a few good examples.
I found out about this broward location because I go to the one in Hollywood it’s closer, but since I’m up here I said why not.
The location is a two story building with parking upfront. For anyone coming in with a bag they will check it when you enter and exit. Everything is well organized and divide into categories.
Last time I came I found a Tory burch dress which is $ 500 for $ 10. So today I found two Tory burch bags for $ 25 each, a small coach purse $ 15 and a few lactose polos at $ 7.99.
I do recommend you come with cash because there is a minimum to use a card.
There hard cover books are $ 1.99 and soft cover for $ 0.99. I myself bought a great white shark book since I want to go cage diving all in all spent under $ 100 for some luxury.

The northern Broward county relative of the American Thrift in Hollywood, American Thrift Store II boasts two levels and the same amount of crazy deals the original store has. Every day there is a new sale like certain color tags being half-​priced, or Sunday being the day all the new jewelry is put on display. You can find some real gems here — Juicy Couture, Coach, Michael Kors, and Banana Republic are some of the more higher end brands I have come across here. I highly suggest adding yourself to their e-​mail list so you can find out about their latest deals. A great thrift shop that I highly recommend. One time that I came here I got 8 shirts for $ 21… All name brand too! And clothes are not the only things sold here — you can find everything to sports memorabilia to electronics.
