MORE THAN  A THRIFT STORE

WE WANT EVERYONE TO REMAIN HEALTHY AND SAFE! 

PLEASE READ BELOW GUIDELINES FOR SHOPPING OUR STORES:

Every day there is something new!  A treasure to be found, a vintage accent piece, or that perfect antique plate to showcase the freshly baked cake.  Customers arrive with smiles, anticipation and on the hunt for a bargain.  “You’ll always find it at St. Vinny’s!”, is what we have heard often.  Yes the merchandise is abundant.  Clothing, artwork, accent pieces; you name it – we got it!

Our employees, the heart of our stores, come to work each day with a smile and much excitement.  Why?  Because each day is a new experience.  New customers, new merchandise, and another opportunity to serve those in need.  Beyond the plates, books and carefully arranged displays is our mission; to help those in need in our community.  Yes, our neighbors who need help.  Our stores provide essentials to those in need, provide jobs and skill enhancement, and many times a place to be where you feel a part of something larger than life; a part of the cure towards ending poverty.

During the past 2 ½ months while our stores were closed, we worked very hard behind the scenes continuing our efforts of helping those in need.  The donations that you generously donated were carefully sorted and prepared.  Our stores were restocked, those in need received the items so desperately needed.  As our world showed signs of opening up, preparations and planning was in place to once again bring the best thrift store experience to our customers and neighbors in need.

We have a whole new look!  In addition to thoroughly cleaning and sanitizing, we are prepared to offer a safe and exciting shopping experience.  Freshly painted areas, shiny floors, bright lights, and a friendly, social distance approach throughout the entire thrift store shopping experience.

Stores will be open 7-days a week, 9am to 4pm.  These hours will allow our staff to maintain a clean and sanitized environment and daily restock of new merchandise.

Donations are accepted during store hours at our donation intake doors.  Safe drop off of all donations with social distancing.

As the healthy and safety of our employees, customers, and neighbors in need remain our top priority, we have incorporated the following recommended CDC guidelines while shopping at our stores:

• Face masks are required. Customers without face masks are not allowed in the store.
• Social distancing check-out area with barriers
• Continued cleaning and sanitizing throughout the day
• Limit of 10 customers at a time in the store
• Children under 12 years cannot enter the store
• Dressing rooms and restrooms are not available and closed to the public
• Our policy remains of No returns of merchandise

 

For over 167 years, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul Chicago has been helping those in need in our community.  It is because of your continued  support that we sustain to help those in need.  Serving over 88,000 families a year, we couldn’t do it without you!

We are very excited to once again be open and welcome all of you to join us for a safe and positive shopping experience.
