Thrift Stores in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire

“A lot bigger Charity shop place than you'd think. Has one shop for clothes and accessories, and one for Furniture and bric a brac. The furniture side also has a nice café. ”

“What a find. The shutters were down when we arrived at the Premier Inn directly over the road. The vinyl collection is massive. And the additional items, not clothes, are awesome. Great staff, so happy we got a bargin and helped a worthy cause. We'll done the Sue Ryder organisation.”

“A very well presented charity shop, unlike others in the area it's modern looking ànd well run. The staff are very helpful and the items they sell are of a high standard, not your usual findings for a charity shop. From adult clothes to children's, brickabrak to toys,jewellery to suitcases an amazing array. All to support the East Anglia children's hospices in Cambridgeshire and Norfolk and Suffolk a great cause”

“Although I am aware of the inflation we are witnessing, I did not expect to see it reflected in charity shops. I am not sure why this is the case. The majority of the staff members are volunteers, and the products are donated. I believe that if the items are not overpriced, they will sell more quickly. A speedier turnaround means more money coming in.”

“It is like in a jumble sale in there. At the very least, there is no odour of old clothing, as some second-hand stores do. Everything has gone up, including items in second-hand stores. I think the price is a little high at £10 for a pair of older styles shoes. I believe that lowering the pricing would speed up the turnaround and allow room for more things. A quicker turnaround also means more money coming in. After all, they got all the stuff for free. Just my thoughts.”

“Lovely charity shop tucked out of the way conveniently close to eye green lake and star dog pit nature reserve and the green wheel cycle/walking route. Wonderful selection of clothes. Nice and spacious too so you don't feel trapped.”

“When I went here, I was amazing by the amount of war films and books here. I immediately bought quite a lot; there's a large amount of collectible items here that are worth it if you are someone who likes these types of products. I recommend to anyone who is looking for war films or books, or any sort of educational book, which are much cheaper to find here than actual stores. Thank you, Salvation Army.”

“What a excellent lady manager in the Peterborough store today. She looked for the Bee pin badges. None in their shop. So she called Bourne store that I bought some from, to check if they had anymore. They did and I got 5 of them. So so happy for her help and kindness. She really did go out of her way to help me. I did not mind driving to Bourne. Thankyou ?”

“Although I am aware of the inflation we are experiencing, I did not anticipate seeing it reflected in charity shops. I don't know why this is the situation. Most of the staff members are volunteers, and the items are donated. I believe a quicker turnover will occur if items at the charity shop are not overly pricey. A quicker turnaround equals more money coming in.”

“Furniture and electronics are the main items sold at this Heart Foundation charity store. Should you require their services, they do deliver for a charge. It is average in terms of price. Their stock is derived from donations. This is the charity to think about if you want to get rid of your old furniture. They only take in items in good and nearly new condition.”

“I just want to give a few kind words to Reece who works in the Hurlington sue ryder. What a wonderful happy , kind and helpful young man is he. Its a delight going into the shop when he is there. He makes people very happy and welcoming. He deserves a gold star ?We all love him. Great young man ?”

“I am one of the many volunteers at age UK bretton and I just wanted to say how amazing all of the staff and volunteers really are. They all work so hard, are always polite and friendly to everyone, regardless. To say no one thanked you for the donations is a complete fallacy! We are always grateful for any donation. Thankyou.”

“I would like to congratulate the shop on its new management and super team of volunteers. Extended opening hours are appreciated and everyone is so friendly, whether you're donating or purchasing.”

“It is a good charity shop where we have not charged for delivery. They delivered item on Tuesday so you can visit accordingly. It has good amount of collection so you may get your required 2nd hand item. I am very much impressed with staff communication.”

“The rating is high which is well deserved. Going through charity stores is one of my favourite pastimes. This is among Peterborough's best charity shop in my opinion. A perk is plenty of free public parking spaces right outside the store. If there is a parking issue and it is a long walk, I probably wouldn't bother.Prices are fair, and occasionally I find really useful items that I've been hunting for. Usually, the employees and volunteers are quite helpful. I recommend a visit if you are love charity shops.”

“Lovely Staff! Always ready to greet potential customers with friendly chat. The shop is very clean and is nicely laid out. I try to call in a couple of times each week even though this Charity Shop isn't exactly local to me.”

“Absolutely blown away at the phenomenal caliber and professionalism of all the staff. Staff must love working in a light hearted and peaceful atmosphere, and it shows in how much pride the staff take in organizing the stock. Retail therapy on steroids at very reasonable prices. I've been ill recently and find it hard to communicate and get my words out. The assistant manager really helped me by taking his time with me without being impatient. He offered suggestions which I found unbelievably helpful. I can't recommend this store high enough and it is an absolute pleasure to review this outstanding shop. Keep it up guys ?”
