Best thrift store in Ames - and probably Story County. It's clean, it's well organized, the staff and volunteers are friendly, and all profits go to charitable organizations. It even SMELLS better than other thrift stores. :) Can't say enough good things about Overflow!
Love this place when the first of the month sale is going on I found it in entire up-to-date outfit for $2
The non-thrift store thrift store. Clean, creatively displays, cute dressing rooms, a bench to sit on while you try on shoes, and even decorations in the clean bathrooms! Overflow is a great shopping experience, plus all the fun finds and friendly volunteers. I've found great clothes, shoes, housewares, even a snowboard, dining room table, rocking chair, board games, antiques--you name it! Love this store!
The only real downside to overflow is that their inventory doesn't move terribly fast. However, unlike other thrift stores in Ames the prices here are much lower and the overall quality is much higher! So if you want to pay $90 a busted up dresser that reeks of cigarettes, you'll have to find it somewhere else (I'm looking at you, Salvation Army). Also, their first of the month sales are the best. I go every month now.
There are some really amazing finds here, and they change their display based on the seasons. All of the proceeds go to charities such as women shelters, orphans in Haiti, and halfway houses. The idea is to donate our "overflow" to help those around the world who aren't as fortunate. They have everything from books, to clothes, to baskets, cards, and furniture
