I went in with the intentions to get a cheap wig to cover up a bad haircut, and I left with a big smile on my face. This place is AMAZING! I went to the dollar-a-pound section (which is kind of mis-leading since they jacked it up from a buck to a buck-fifty a pound (but they only charge 75 cents per pound on Fridays, most likely because the section is crawling with college students like me). I must say, despite one of the previous reviewers' judgments about this place being a "beggar's paradise" coming off as extremely rude and offensive, I will dignify with a response that I am certainly not a beggar and am happy with my purchases. I found four pairs of designer shoes IN MY SIZE, tons of casual pants, including J. Crew bottoms, some great vintage tees, a cowboy hat, and gifts for my niece and father, as well, for less than $20. I also got two brand new, in the package opaque tights for not that much more, so seriously, who the hell can beat that?! If you're a TRUE thrifter and you aren't afraid to commit, browse and dig for what you want, than this is the place for you!
Pros: the price, the employees, the location, the selection, the quality, the FUN!
Cons: walking to the nearby T station with a huge plastic bag filled with clothes is a little embarassing
