Salvos Stores Adelaide

“On Friday 15th September, my intellectually disabled daughter went into this store with her carer. She had her 7yo service dog with her. Immediately, a lady pounced on my daughter telling her to GET OUT of the store with a dog. Terrified, my daughter was almost in tears immediately, her carer explaining that it is discrimination to not allow a service dog in a store and proceeded to get her card out to show them. This woman became so abusive that the carer had to take my daughter to safety out of the store before they could even produce her ID. Her ID has a QR code linking to the $10,000 fine if you do not abide by Australian laws such as this woman did. We intend on following through with this discrimination and hope that this woman is also reprimanded for her arrogance and inappropriate behaviour towards customers, especially young adults with significant disabilities.”

“This store is super stingy and overpriced. The store manager wouldn’t lower a price on a top that apparently was “just put on the rack” that smelled strongly of BO. Another dress I tried on smelled literally of old lady. THEY DO NOT WASH THE CLOTHES BEFORE PUTTING THEM ON THE RACKS. THE STORE MANAGER ADVISED ME OF THIS HIMSELF. He said I would have to wash clothes if I bought them from a regular store and I said yes but they don’t normally smell of BO and these clothes are donated so there’s a huge difference. Visit another store don’t go here.”

“Honestly if you wanna buy cheap electronics just save up to get a brand new one because I just spend 3 days going back and forth to this place to exchange a $12 heater that wasn't working to another heater of the same price that seemed like it was working but after 1 minute it was turning off and turning back on every 20 minutes and after all that they just told me they can't do refunds... I can use my hair blow drier to warm up my room better than the ones they have.👍 P.S just an advice, if anything you get from there doesn't work, just get a refund straight away because if you ask for an exchange they won't let you get a refund after that.”

“They don't actually give low prices for students, I remember struggling to pay for a button up shirt for interviews here 6 years ago, the lady didn't believe I was a student and she said some gaslighting comments. Better off buying brand new and supporting the commercial industry rather than this 'Charity'”

“Great Experience, Great Range of items, though not a thrift store as such. The prices have risen, I paid $17 for a plain jumper just to stay warm. Though there are definitely those hidden gems to look for as always!”
