Hot New Thrift Store Springs Up in Houston
Hot new thrift store in Houston provides help to the community.
(PRWEB) July 18, 2005 -- The Houston Charity Center's Big Charity Sale is
fast becoming one of the most successful single location thrift stores in the
nation.
The 3,600+ square foot facility is easy to spot at 14110 South
Post Oak Road in Houston Texas with bargain hunters often waiting outside before
the store opens to get first chance at the day's new arrivals. The shop is
bright and attractive with all merchandise neatly displayed and priced.
When we asked, "Why the rave reviews?," co-founder Virginia Bowen smiles
and says "It's because we love what a good charity thrift store means to the
community - we love the customers we serve and it shows - in our pricing, our
inventory, our service - everywhere you look! We process up to 12 new truckloads
of merchandise daily. We have what the community is looking for. Furniture,
appliances, clothing, home decor and one-of-a-kind treasures - you name it, you
can probably find it here!"
The name brand 99 cent clothing items also
bring plenty of attention. The clothing is neatly displayed & tagged
according to size and type. Patrons buy them by the armful.
Many of the
customers we spoke with come exclusively for the fabulous home decor section of
the shop. The vast array of crystal, ceramics, art, knick-knacks and
collectibles keep them coming back week after week. For others, it is the Angel
Food Ministry which allows everyone the ability to save 70% off of the groceries
they purchase. A big plus is knowing that their purchases and donations help the
Houston Charity Center provide food and household essentials to struggling
families.
Overall we found shopping at the Center to be quite a
remarkable experience - so next time you're in Houston stop by and check it
out.
