Sweet people working here! Personable and helpful. Such a well organized store with good energy. Was so happy when they opened up near my house, but was nervous to go, due to pandemic. When I made the decision to go, I felt I was in a safe place with precaution at hand.
Love all locations. Each is different in its own way. The organization couldnt be more awesome too, with all proceeds going straight to the shelter. Ive interned and volunteered with the shelter and they are legit. They work hard and walk the talk. I never shop at other thrift or vintage stores because these ones you just cant beat. Prices are usually below $10?! Actual vintage wear thats also usually in the $20s.This location has wider selection of housewear.Oltorf ive found better apparel, mens and vintage at.Burnet has a little bit of everything but havent had too much luck in mens section lately.
APA is the only thrift store I feel comfortable going to, with safety regulations in place s/a occupancy restrictions, no dressing rooms (but you can return for store credit), sanitizer at front door and masks required. On top of all those necessities, theres a lot of great merchandise at super affordable prices! Theres a good deal of boutique and vintage which is priced accordingly but still affordable. Lots of bags, shoes, kitchen and house wares, craft supplies and kids clothes. 10/10 would recommend & will be back!

2022-08-29Great store, lots of clothes to sift through and a reasonable amount of home goods. Go for the shopping and helping the shelter animals. Just dont have high expectations for the staffs customer service skills.

2021-07-11This place is great! By far one the best Austin Pets Alive in Austin since they have so much shopping space. I particularly enjoyed when the employees at the store took time to inform me about the philanthropic work APA does for pets in the shelter. It is so nice to know that the proceeds go directly to the shelter. I will go to visit this store more often now that I know that the items there are great and it is supporting a great cause.

2021-08-26I loved this thrift store. The manager was really helpful in helping me pick out clothes that were both in my size and flattering to me. The store was also really cute, very chic looking! Go here if you want a thrift experience!

2021-01-16I really liked the store until they put a hex on me. I just maxed out my 3rd credit card this month because the spirits keep coercing me into coming to the store and buying more and more AND MORE! Very grateful for APA thrift. Great staff great selection.

2020-12-07This is Austin Pets Alive thrift’s 3rd and largest location and it does not disappoint! I love shopping here and always leave with something cool. The staff here is super nice they always seem to have a really good Lululemon and athleisure selection, as well as plenty of home goods and even furniture! And the prices can’t be beat. Remember the greater purpose when shopping here (it’s about the animals!) and leave a little extra $ at checkout, if you’re able. Be sure to follow them on social media & sign up for their email list so you’re in the loop about their AMAZING sales!

2021-05-07Love being able to donate good stuff that also helps animals. They only take good quality so its way nicer and better than goodwill.
