Shopping Tips

  • Visit on Monday mornings or early in the week, as weekends bring a wave of new donations that staff process and put out for the new week.
  • Check the racks near the back and ends of sections first — volunteers often place newly sorted items there before they make it to prime real estate on the floor.
  • Bring cash as a backup, and always check items thoroughly before purchasing, since all sales are typically final at thrift stores.
  • Ask staff if St. Vincent de Paul Kaukauna runs any color-tag discount days or seasonal sales — many SVdP locations rotate discount tags that can save you an extra 25–50% on marked items.
