"Buy the Pound" Store This is not an ordinary thrift store working in conjunction with the Hopeline program this store provides a means to those who may not even be able to afford some other thrift store prices. Offering clothing at $2 / bag, and many sponsorship, or service opportunities there shouldn't be a child without a coat or an adult without work clothes. Working in partnership with ETHRA, and generous giving of time from volunteers we are able to have a fully staffed store. To sign up to volunteer in the store click the link to the left and you will be directed to sign up. Currently "Buy the Pound" is open Tuesday - Saturday 9 AM - 5 PM, Closed Sundays and Mondays Donations can be made during that time. THANK YOU!
