Volunteers of America Thrift Store - Corunna - Owosso, Michigan

I have visited this thrift store multiple times and regularly shop here. What I've noticed is that the prices are excessively high for used clothes. They often place exorbitant prices on items simply because they can.

For example:
- $39.99 for used jeans
- $20-50+ for a used jackets
- $12.99 for jeans, $8.99 for shirts
You get my point.

I've seen many clothing pieces and items with rips and severe wear priced as if they were new at a major retail store. In comparison, Walmart, Target, and even TJ Maxx offer more affordable new items at the same price as this thrift store.

I understand that any establishment needs to make a profit to run a business / organization.
but this is taking it to the next level of greed. These places take your items for free to resell. Even if they priced items at $4 or less, they would still make money given the volume they receive daily and weekly, plus the sales at the end of the day/week and how much cash flow comes in.

The store is full of items and goods, but it is beyond me how they can justify such high prices, especially in today's economy. In a small town with limited options, they know people will pay.

First time comming here and it was the best experience I ever had .I can't believe how huge this place was! It took me and my husband 1 hour and half just looking through everything this place was huge and so much good finds .I hit the jackpot on baby clothes and other baby items and just was so much to look at . Most definitely coming back again I loved this place so much . This is a must go place if you never came here before especially if your expecting🤰 like I am .

I am a veteran,a Senior and have shopped at Volunteers of America before and during as after covid 19. At various thrift shops in Genesee county. These past 2 years I can't find anything I want or can use. The clothing & houseware items are well used as overpriced for second hand. A gently used metal bowl was 5.57 as well as cookie sheet. I can buy for 10.00. Clothing was not gently used but well used and odorous. Sadly I'm not paying 7.50 for a well used top. I found nothing I felt was a bargain. Sadly
Newer donations are being sold else where. I'm offended. I have heard donations are picker over & sold else where. Sad times for those who depend on thrift shopping. Prayers for thrifting to return to affordable bargains and not rip offs!!

After 3 months of not being in the store I decided to go back and check out some furniture, it's disappointing that the store went down hill, the prices went up extremely high and the store looks disgusting

Filled a cart! New lamp. New curtains.
However, I would not recommend going on Half off Tuesday, usually the last Tuesday of the month. Way too crowded. Go the day before when they are stocking for the sale.

PRICES ARE WAY TOO HIGH!! They depend on their “half off day” and mark everything up so that on their half off day they will still make a lot of profit. Like people donate these items to you for free. This place is supposed to be for people that can’t afford much; but yet you charge 15-20$ a pair of jeans! Also a rug was 300$ that was stained!! And looked disgusting to even sell. But hey I guess I’m in the wrong business because owning a charity I guess makes millions. 🤦‍♀️ SMH

Store was large and well organized until you get to the back where all the items are just shoved onto a shelf and important to see unless you dig thru everything item
