St Vincent De Paul - Salem

A well stocked thrift store. They have set pricing for certain types of clothing so no need to look for tags. They do have some items with color tags and there will be deals on certain colors. They also give Senior and Veteran discounts

I know others have expressed the opinion about high prices but I visited today and wow are they right. The white couch was $799. I can get a quality new couch delivered for that amount. Not a used couch that strangers have been passing gas in for who knows how long. Used low budget CD player, untested was $50. Some clothing is well priced but others are nuts like $19 for a sweatshirt. Guess I won't be back.

UPDATE: THANKS FOR RESPONDING. My only response at this point is to give you 2 stars for effort, but as a former retailer for 30 years, DO A BETTER JOB OF TRAINING YOUR DONATION CENTER PEOPLE! AND POSSIBLY OTHERS! They no longer have a mission for the poor as they did a few years ago. 10 years ago they claimed to help with meds but I paid out 300.00 a month for my daughter's med for 8 years and St Vincent's claimed we didn't qualify. I had to borrow from my house to cover them. They have become shoddy consumerism that embarrass es St Vincent and flogs Jesus. They need to change their name to match their snobby attitudes.

Always good. I love to shop the books and picture frames. Never disappointed when I go to St. Vinnie's here in Salem or down in Albany. Lovely staff that always have a smile to share!

Big place with lots of everything! Good selection of shoes and clothes, the mens section is a bit smaller than the women’s. Hugeee selection of movies and books! Easily be here for 1-2 hours looking at everything and the prices are good and not too expensive

We shop at St Vincent and we donate items to the store. Recently we brought items in for donations. The person taking the delivery decided to rifle through the bags and decided the donations were not good enough. The items we brought were far better than what they put on their shelves. We will not shop there any longer. There are a lot of places willing to take clean, odor free, and working items in good condition. Sad to say, but when not accepting donations people will stop donating to you.

Is a secondhand store with a latter variety of clothes, furniture, books, shoes, and is a nice people working here !

I love shopping there. Always friendly.

I have donated at thrift stores for years thinking I'm doing the right thing of repurposing, and within the last year have been donating to St Vincent de Paul for the first time. The last donation however, a customer coming out of the donation area was someone I knew and we were talking after the guy who I assume is an employee took my donation in the grocery cart. As the gentleman and I were talking, I hear a loud glass shatter and look over to the area seeing the guy look back over at me and I realized he just threw in the garbage dumpster the two glass and framed pictures I just donated. The two pictures in the frames of animated Siamese cats were old and nothing I anticipated anybody would want, but the reason I donated the pictures was for the beautiful old wooden frames that I knew somebody would love. It made me sick. We are such a throwaway gluttonous species on this beautiful planet that we keep trashing. I talked to somebody at the store about it today and was told that in receiving they make a decision right there if it's something that they think would sell and if they don't think it would sell, they throw it right in the garbage dumpster. Well I tell you this, somebody would have loved to have had those picture frames. After I saw the thrift store I donated to the most do the same thing, I checked with the Goodwill store and a couple other thrift stores and understand now that they all do this. I understand that there's too much stuff, so my plan now is to do what I said, just advertise it for free for a reasonable price, and if nobody wants it, I will tend to appropriately disposing of it myself. So discouraging. No hope or faith.

Really good brands. Clothes in great condition for cheap
