WorldServe Thrift Store Calgary

I went out of my way to go there, and I was disappointed. Yes, the staff is nice, but the prices are crazy, not a big place, not a big selection.very disappointed.

I have been to many stores around the world, like Japan, US, Europe, and this was the most pleasant experience, felt love from the staff, good quality products and tidy place. I will donate my stuff here just because of this people. Hugs to all the staff!

Very clean Thrift Store, big variety of glassware, dishes, toys, clothing and some special pieces in the showcase

I really like that they have vintage sewing notions like buttons, zippers, cotton tape (NOT polyester!), lace!
Also a lovely selection of household goods and furniture!

WS always has a good and varied inventory. And knowing the proceeds go to charity is satisfying. Their silent auction is always a source of wonder.

Great volunteer organization, uses sales for charity. Efficient donation system. A great way to recycle old stuff.

The best prices, quality and friendly staff of any used store I've been to so far. Jin $4.99

Clean, organized and friendly staff! Didn’t get the stuffy, thrift store feeling and items were priced fairly:) loved shopping here!

Clean place, and well laid out. I was looking for a couple specific housewares items and there's not a ton of selection here. The furniture and clothing departments were well stocked. Very small kids section.

Been a customer since opening day years ago when Arnie was the manager.

Love it. Great vibes here.

The prices are generally competitive, though sometimes they can be a bit out of touch as with most thrift stores these days.

Yes on eBay that blanket is 200 but YOU got it for free

I was in the other day and saw your typical vintage wool blanket (not HBC) for $40 which is the same price as ebay and saddening to see.

Don't sell out and get greedy!

The money used in your missions around the world is well enough, if you start gouging customers you'll lose them.

Volume is better when using your funds to help others.

Many items are also heavily researched and then marked up.

Really don't want to see WorldServe turn into just another overpriced thrift store.

The staff are amazing and the store is always clean, safe and organized. Love it.

Great little thrift store. Staff is very religious so be prepared to overhear church talk as you shop. Very friendly and helpful staff. The whole store shakes when the train goes by. The wares are extremely well organized. Great selection of books and furniture.

I love their Christmas Market! Was my first time going this year and I found so many treasures! Plus! They don't jack up the prices like. Value Village

I almost hate to tell anyone how outstanding the furniture selection is because I want it all! ️ The staff are super friendly and helpful. I'll definitely go back.

I love how they accept donated items but the woman who answered the phone was kind of rude the other day idk why she just had a bad attitude

Pleasant service, clean and organised items, will come back again. I don’t know what more to write, just come and see with your eyes. I never thought thrift store could be like THIS. Wow.

Decent items. Great staff. Fun place to treasure hunt for kids clothes or knick knacks or small item furniture. Found this beautiful art set for $7 for the pair. Needs work but why not!

Went in this store this morning for a dress for a stagette, the sweet lady I asked for assistance from was so much fun and such a joy to engage with, and was so very helpful. Even if the discount she pushed for to get me was rejected once i got to the counter to pay. It didn't matter she was an absolute gem and the dress fit and was what i was looking for. Thank you to the sweet lady that helped me today you absolutely made our morning and experience fabulous

It's a bit on the smaller size, they tend to have great items for their silent auction all the time as far as for the everyday shopping Iwouldnt say it's the best selection for the younger crowd, but great things for your over 60 crowd

Went to several other thrift stores to find some things for a DIY project. World serve was by far the cheapest, friendliest and most helpful of the stores I went to

Went to get a tree, and they were so expensive I went to Canadian Tire and got a new one cheaper. No bathrooms Good parking

Interesting store with some furniture items too. Unfortunately didn't have item I was looking for this time.

My wife and daughter enjoy all they have bought so far. The folks are friendly and willing to help.

Located just east in same parking lot as Salvation Army off of 58th Ave.
Can always find the odds and ends for my place.

Have made some fantastic purchase here. Definately worth the trip. Store is well organized and kept very clean. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Will definately be returning

This place has discriminatory and unethical practices that I have witnessed. I would encourage you to learn more about their nepotistic and toxic work environment.

Great selection of quality items at a fair price that goes to help others. Super friendly staff. WorldServe is a 360 win!

Terrible policies and the items are in gross condition. Many items are caked in food splatter, dust, dirt, etc. And they will sell incomplete items claiming they have been tested etc, and once you realize and go back they tell you, no returns. Waste of time and money. They also charge waaaaaay more at this thrift store than any other in the city. We tested it, 3 seperate thrift stores sold guitar hero controllers for $15, even one in BRAND NEW condition. The one at this store was in the worst condition of the 4 AND it was $40, incomplete

Its a bit of a smaller store but I have never left without a cool find. The prices are great for clothes. They have a lot of interesting things on top of the normal stuff you would find. Way cheaper than value village just a lot smaller or I would have given 5 stars all day.

I used to love this store. There stuff are expensive! Books are expensive. But I can still find neat stuff.

Excellent selection. Well organized and very friendly staff. Just picked up a really nice drill set for 18 bucks! Can't go wrong with these kinds of finds.

Went in to check out their clothing selection. It was small but ok, easy to go through and not crammed like other thrift stores. The pricing was quite reasonably lower than others which is good and they have a clearance rack marked for $1. Worth a check.

It was dirty, sparse selection, and over priced. Certainly not what it was six months ago. Sad, with staff seemingly unhappy.

My favourite place to buy second hand. Nice layout, clean and the prices are very reasonable. Video section is pretty good too.

A very strange thrift store that benefits a religious cause. They always have the strangest assortment of items and always have an impressive display of haunted dolls. They also always have a lot of old electronics that other thrift stores would throw out. They also keep a lot of VHS tapes around. It's definitely well kept, but the whole place kind of has a strange vibe.

The prices are all over the place in this store. 50 percent of the staff is nice however the manager isnt very friendly at all.

One of the best thrift stores in Calgary! I always find something here. The prices are really low but the items are of good quality. The staff and volunteers are very nice and put in effort to make my experience in the store great. I also love the fact that they’re a non-profit and all proceeds go to a good cause. When I go thrifting, WorldServe is my top choice.

Absolutely beautiful store. Most thrift stores have a somewhat run down feel, but this store has a very clean feeling to it, almost like a Home Sense-kinda store. The staff is very nice, they greeted me as soon as I came into the store, and their merchandise had very good prices. I go thrifting pretty often, but this was by far one of the best stores and overall experiences I've had.

One of the few thrift stores, that hasn't jacked up their prices. I love browsing around and usually find great deals on craft items, knick knacks and gardening supplies. Thank you for this store!

Mine and my daughter's favorite thrift store.and they actually do something good with the money.

One of my favourite thrift stores! The people here are so lovely, and everything is actually at thrift store prices. Plus- it’s all going to a good cause! Sometimes can be busy, especially on weekends.

Go! There are many things to look at, friendly staff. I don't feel like my money goes to a millionaire or Corporation.

Highly recommended thrift store. It's worth a look. The prices are fairly cheap. And all the money goes to a good cause.
