Vinnies Acacia Ridge

“Ladies clothing quite over priced and not checked thoroughly for stains etc. Kids clothing regular opshop prices though. Staff not very friendly and quite loud discussing what they had put aside for themselves. Not a welcoming store.”

“This store has been here for years I think. I have visited it on many occasions. For a mid size store it has quite a good range of EVERYTHING. But as usual more ladieswear than anything else. Although the men's section was quite well stocked. Ladieswear was well sorted into individual sizing which was good to see. Plenty of parking onsite as it is part of a shopping complex. Pricing is run of the mill chain op shop pricing, having said that though there was some good bargains to be found if you were willing to look. They have a good range of glassware & kitchenware. The shop is clean & well set out unfortunately the day I visited they had all these boxes of rta furniture or something I think & while they weren't in the way, it did make the shop look cluttered”

“I make toys and art from recycled fabrics, so every time that I'm in the area I'll stop by and pick up between $30-100 worth of bits and pieces that are made from interesting fabrics. Of course I make sure to check tags and keep track of what I expect my total purchase to be, but I've noticed on more than one occasion that my total is significantly higher than I calculated it would be, with the tags removed before handing over the receipt so I cannot then go back and double-check. :/ Whether you believe someone is reselling secondhand clothing or not, seeing a customer contribute 'more than usual' to a charity organization is not a good reason to be rude (which seems to be an increasing trend amongst many thrift stores.)”

“Huge store with big range of all sorts. Homewares and clothes are the best of it. Big car park aswell which lets you not worry about finding a park even at Christmas. Also has 2 Vinnies donation bins at the front, that are hard to find these days. Ive had mostly good staff experiences. Nice and clean and very well organised. A must to visit in the op shop world.”

“The place is well set ou and everything is easy to find. The staff are friendly and efficient. I purchased 5 hand bags including 1 Cellini bag for $25 in total. All in great condition - these are for homeless women via Share the Dignity charity. Very happy.”
