Just want to comment on the "new" RED WHITE & BLUE Thrift Store.
Since they have moved the stores prices are outragous. Most items are much more then you would pay for in the store brand new.
Im very concern that the managers are taking advantage of the "low income" folks that shop there.
As I understand, Manager "Donna" has a six figure income.
Many people who shop there can't get to other shopping centers and
think that they are gettinbg a bargin here.
Isn't there any regulations on this type of gouging?
They wanted $59.00 for a used bed frame that was broken. I saw one in another store complete for $8.00. This is no time with the ecomony to be taking advantage and gouging the consumer.
I feel sorry for those who have no education or ways to compare prices.
They are being taken, Very Sad!
