This is, by far, the best thrift store I've ever experienced. The organization is superior; the selection is astounding, more reminiscent of a lovely consignment shop than a donation dump; the layout is such that thorough exploration is segmented and therefore not overwhelming. Other things I enjoyed were that games and puzzles were shrink wrapped, all subsections within departments were clearly labeled, and all prices easy to find. I will come here when I but a house in the area to furnish and decorate my new space, and then come again regularly to enjoy such a unique and wonderful shopping venue.
Edited to add: some reviews have complained about prices. I can understand a level sticker shock when one is accustomed to a more typical thrift store, but the quality of many items is so superior that it's ridiculous to expect to pay pocket change for them. 10% (for example) of the cost of a superior item is going to be far higher than 10% of the cost of a cheap item. I saw couches there for $120 that I would expect to buy new for about $1500, and the one I'm thinking of looked almost new. I would happily pay that $120 for such a well constructed, apparently new couch rather than $30-40 for the near-garbage I find elsewhere. Quality matters.
