From the reviews

My daughter and I love this place - we are in there at least every other week - and always find something we like - it is especially nice that they have several racks with Plus Size apparel - it's nice that they are all together and not mixed in with the "Little" sizes.

★★★★☆ — Kathy, Aug 2018

I had an unforgettable experience at a thrift shop for the first time. Alice welcomed me with a warm smile and patiently assisted me in selecting my Christmas party outfit. But it wasn't just about that one outfit; she introduced me to styles perfect for everyday wear as well.

★★★★★ — Indy, Dec 2024

We frequent The Purple Shoe every week or two and always find deals. Shop to stop domestic violence is what this wonderful nonprofit supports. The staff is always real friendly. Lots of name brand clothes that are very fashionable. They are open 10am-4pm Monday-Saturday.

★★★★★ — Carol, Jul 2024

Such an adorable, well-organized thrift store. I can always count on finding items in great condition. The staff is often friendly, and while prices are a little higher than some places, it’s worth it knowing the mission they support. I always enjoy stopping in. I do wish they had extended hours.
