    Los precios son muy elevados un costo en $30 es demasiado más cuando es una tienda de segunda mano para ayudar los pobres.
    EDITOR: Translated to English: The prices are very high in cost. $30 is too much when a thrift/second hand store is (supposed to be) for helping the poor.

    • $30 for what? Over 95% of the clothes in the thrift stores in PR are less than $10 each.

      Not all thrift stores exist for helping the poor as their mission. It’s usually the Salvation Army, in the states and PR, that are non-profit with a goal to help the poor. Many other thrift stores are for-profit businesses. Either way, you can usually find clothing, housewares, furniture, and more for at least 50% less than what it would cost new. I’ve also seen many items for less than 10% of what they would cost new.

    Site is very informative for visitors to
    Puerto Rico. Prices vary and finding a “bang for the buck” is a treasure when your on a fixed income. Quality for less!

    • Alison, it’s good that you have a thrift store, but unfortunate that you lack a website to promote it. FB is an evil corporation that violates people’s privacy, and is not condoned here. You can make a free WordPress.com for your store. Also, the way you list your hours is backwards. The days should be listed BEFORE the hours. Good luck on the success of your store.
