  • Bring cash for the smoothest checkout experience, as smaller church-run thrift shops may have limited card payment options
  • Chat with volunteers about upcoming donation drives or special sales—they're connected to the community and often share insider information
  • Check the St. Mark's website before visiting to confirm any holiday closures or special event hours
  • Since inventory depends entirely on donations, stop by regularly rather than looking for specific items—the best finds go to frequent visitors who know to check back often
