Prime Thrift Virginia - Alexandria, Virginia

Stumbled upon this cool thrift store after visiting Geroge Washingtons Mount Vernon. I walked away with 4 shirts for less than $10. All great quality! They had a huge selection of furniture, household goods, shoes and clothing. Check them out, you might find some treasures! Happy Journeys ✌️

Prime time has great merchandise and a lot of it.
The staff is very helpful.
It is also quite clean considering the amount of foot traffic it has.
It's conveniently located, being immediately off Richmond Hwy.
There is a different sale every day of the week.
Some thrift shops put on the floor all the items they receive, so buyers need to thoroughly examine merchandise. I have never found the need to do this with purchases from Prime Time. Lastly, the profits help the veterans, who protect us.

Great finds at this store. However, the staff is not friendly at all. The older African lady cashier (I’m also black and not trying to be xenaphobic at all, simply need to describe her and don’t know her name) is one of the most unfriendly people I have ever encountered in my life. I’ve been to this location a dozen times and each time, her attitude is the same. She fusses at you to remove the hangers from the clothes before you get to the register in a very rude manner. She is very clearly annoyed when you aren’t moving fast enough for her or you “inconvenience” her. One time my debit card didn’t work (which i actually believe was a problem on her end because I had sufficient funds in the account per my banking app) and instead of saying “I’m sorry but your card didn’t go through” or “do you have another form of payment” she got very irritated and told me with an attitude that my card didn’t work as if I HAD DONE SOMETHING TO HER. I work in retail as well so I know first hand how relieved customers are when they interact with a sales associate/cashier who is pleasant, or at a bare minimum isn’t grumpy. Despite what’s going on in your personal life, it is immature and unprofessional to take that out on people you don’t know, especially at your place of work. I’m sure other shoppers know exactly who I’m talking about solely based on my description of her attitude and they probably agree with me as well.

Great location with it's own parking lot adjacent to Walmart Superstore. They now have dressing rooms which improve shopping options. Items are color coordinated and sizes are now sectioned. There are more designer options, furniture, shoes, men's clothing and misc. Prices are not bad, with a little searching there are bargains.

3.7 stars overall…yet 5 stars for customer service and the chair purchase. I had to dock off a star due to some difficulties and the prices. I found the perfect item - an old antique rocking chair with wear and tear. It had a big crack and minor repair issues so they reduced the price to $22. We were able to fix the cracks and noticed several repairs on the chair. I thought the price was fair, since we had to do repair work on it.

The prices on items at this thrift shop were high to me, yet I did enjoy walking through the store. I didn't find anything useful to buy. Customer service was very good, and the sales clerk lowered the price of the chair after my husband pointed out flaws. I liked their display of jewelry. Parking can get difficult. A car parked too close to use - making it impossible for my husband to open his car door to get inside. He is average height and size. We almost got hit by a car trying to get out of the parking lot. Despite the problems It is worth a go see.

I appreciate the changes made. Excellent staff working, a very organized and clean place. Clothing, shoes, handbags from good brands, beautiful
jewelry, and a variety of household items.
It definitely makes my favorite place again.

Large thrift store, with plenty of parking, and a wide variety of clothing and household goods. I especially like their children's clothing - good selection and very reasonable prices. They have discounts for seniors and military.
