This has got to be the most amazing thrift store I’ve ever been to! I found some great buys, spent maybe $75 and got stuff for myself and for my boyfriend! Some things were still brand new with tags and others were absolute steals for the brand names! The staff was super friendly, the fitting rooms were very clean, and everything was neatly organized! Love this place I wish there was one in Houston!!
Always the best experience. Staff and owner are especially kind and make a point to say hi and remember you (if you got a lot like me) here. Organized for the minds this kind of shopping stresses out and always great options. Thanks for your daily work in finding the best jewelry, clothing, shoes, purses, hats and all! ☺️❤️
Great prices and deals for great quality items! Staff was very helpful and kind! I’d definitely go back!
Great quality and selection of items. I came in specifically looking for decades items for an event. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful, even though we came in pretty cose to closing time. Prices are pretty great, too. Highly recommend, and if youre debating Platos Closet or here, go here.
Super nice staff and I got a cool hoodie :)
The staff was nice and acknowledging very informative. The girl at the desk advised me they would look up prices online and could offer 50% if I heard her correctly. They offered 29.00 for 13 of my items and most of them were new with tags which I didnt find fair, roughly 2.30 per item!.The selection of new items in the store is nice but the selection of used items is not very good and some used things are over priced. So they are making a huge profit and offering hardly anything back in my experience. These are some of my brand new items I brought in. This was my first time here and Ive had better experiences at Platos.
Love this place the vibe is people are soFriendly!!!! Much better than their competition! Love it here! So organized and very efficient.
Love this place! Has something for everyone ! I really enjoy the cashier there totally don’t remember the name of the cashier but she was really nice and actually sparked a conversation while she was ringing us up. Love the selection of quality brands ! Will always keep coming back. Love the San Marcos store come all the always to Austin for that store.
Couldnt have asked for a better shopping experience! Exceptional customer service and a clean, organized store.
Great place, great people. As soon as my daughter and I walked in they greeted us in a friendly manner. We looked around, someone asked if we were doing ok. Which I loved, so great customer service. But over all we had a great experience, walked out with great finds. And finally found some great shoes!!!!❤️ Best part was there was 2 ladies with the same Birthday as me, how cool is that!!! Lol. ❤️❤️❤️
Very clean store and staff are very friendly. Great deals as I am never disappointed. I love the extra 15% off during my birthday month!
I was greeted politely. When I was ready to try clothes on in the dressing room, was quickly helped and given instructions. When I was ready to check out, they were very polite and told me about the five star program. I will definitely be back!
This is my go to place!! Staff is friendly and helpful! The store is always clean and organized makes it easy to find what I’m looking for! :)
Vibrant….Affordable discounted clothes and accessories Clean….. Friendly….. will definitely be a first on my list♥️😁
I went in to Uptown Cheapskate the other day looking for 3 specific articles of clothing and I wasn’t having the easiest time finding it. One of the workers introduced herself to me as Gracie and told me all about the sales they are having and if I needed help finding anything. After explaining what I was looking for she told me to follow her. So I did. She then proceeded to find all three of the clothing pieces I was looking for first try. I’m am very pleased with the customer service and the quality of clothes they are reselling. Uptown Cheapskate For The Win!!!
Really cool selection of clothes! Ive found great items here with less hassle than at the larger thrift stores. They have several changing rooms and the store is always spectacularly clean.
I was traveling through San Marcos and decided to check this place out. I was so impressed walking in. This is not like those other consignment shops. There were at least 3 staff members in there hustling to keep the store tidy and they were all attentive and helpful. They have some new merchandise also. I was pressed for time but still found 2 awesome pieces and I will absolutely be back.
The staff member that was at the register was very polite and provided excellent customer service.
I love this place .All the employees are friendly and always smiling ...They also make me feel welcomed from the time I come in till the time I leave ..Love yall guys,,,, 😍
Literally has the best clothes for whatever style you’re looking for
Absolutely amazing employees and great clothes! I love how organized everything is!
Really fun store!! Great selection, prices and great customer service from staff 😊😊
My teen daughter and I love this store. Easy going atmosphere, friendly employees and quality items and great prices.
I was in love with Platos, until my friend took me here today. Extensive amounts of clothing, shoes, and acessories. The employees were very friendly and helpful.✌🏼
Service was polite and time was efficient. Got great money for clothes that were selected. The store itself is neat and has plenty to choose from. Highly recommend.
Alway give a good amount of cash for clothes that are in style, and the staff was incredibly helpful!
When I say you’ve never had a bad experience I MEAN IT. Every single person working at UC is so kind. I look forward to payday so I can spend it all there 😍😍
Great selection & super nice staff!!
Lovely staff, great selection & you can’t go wrong donating stuff here, might even get some cash or credit too! i saved up my old favorite clothes & was pleasantly surprised by the value i got back, thanks yall
Uptown Cheapskate is one of the best consignment shops in San Marcos! Not only that, but the workers are attentive, polite, and extremely kind. Thank you Uptown Cheapskate for always providing great service!
Very clean and tidy, and the employees were very kind and helpful! Loved the merchandise, and it was all very affordable!
Nice store Nice products Good Prices and friendly and helpful staff
I walked in with stress and walked out happy. Retail therapy is great here.
No matter what I always leave this place with something. Gems everywhere! Worth checking out once a month for gym clothes, graphic tees, and even dress/work clothes when needed.
Staff will come up to you and ask if you need help. At checkout its easy to have a nice conversation with your cashier because they are all very friendly. Customer service is very attentive and happy to help with dressing rooms, putting extra items on hold while you shop, and they greet you at the door right away. Their dollar days sale is always chock full of great stuff. Normally, the prices you get there are typically a little higher compared to Platos. However they have a big section of vintage items as well as local boutique items. Ive seen them offer a really fun variety of sunglasses. Seashells, leaves, and box shapes. I dont see that anywhere else honestly. Trade-in values are relatively okay and you do have to regular there often in order to get points. The jewelry section is quite small. In the long run, the primary second hand items you find at this store are clothes. The rest are shoes and larger accessories. They also accept target brands like wild fable and xhilaration. The purse section has a pretty decent selection and there are some really expensive brands on shelf displays. Outside of sale days, its a little quiet and the shopping experience is very casual. I thought that was interesting. If yall want to come to this place, check it out. Very unique place and its locally owned.
Impressed with the quality and prices in this store! Love that you can also sell your items and get store credit, great way to change out wardrobe.
This place beats any of its competitors because of not only there great selection in clothes but a friendly helpful staff everyone is always helpful!
I love this store! Such great deals and so organized!
I love this store! Ive found brand new black denim Madewell jeans that fit amazing. I bought Kendra Scott pieces as well. Only had 10 minutes to shop, but I got lucky and found a pair of American Eagle white denim shorts for only $8! Im looking out for the same shorts but in black 🔍 👀 Ill be back next week, hopefully w/more time on my hands 😁
Super hip, categorized extremely well by color and size, good quality with a great find here and there. Clean and smells great !
Everyone was super helpful and patient while I ran through their store. Such cute pieces for a great price 🥰
Always find great deals here. Workers are super friendly & nice as well.
Favorite place to sell clothes and shop!! The staff is always friendly and lets me know about the sales going on.
Organized. Good prices. Excellent customer service.
Love this place got a $200 shirt for $17
Cute shop! Selling here is very convenient, but you have to stay in the store while they process your items. Buying from them is also very easy. Much better than Platos closet.
Always a great experience buying or selling at uptown and the employees are always so eager to help!
Love it, great customer service.
Great place to shop..store is filled with nice people that are always happy to help.Not one rude person.Great selection of clothes, everything you would find in a mall without the hassle of alot of running around and the prices are outstanding.Love shopping there💕💕Dont lose out...go soon you wont regret it!!
BEST deals and customer service. I love this place :) highly recommend selling your clothing here over Plato’s. They also have the best Semi-Annual sales where you can get clothing items for less than $2.Every time I go in, I leave with clothes. The staff is so great here!
This is by far the best retail shop in San Marcos. I come here at least once a month, sometimes more! As far as selling goes, they offer you a decent price and if you take the store credit option it’s even more! I also love shopping here because they have so much stuff and the employees are all so sweet! They even have amazing deals like 20-60% off certain stickers and more! The best thing is the dollar sale and the grab a bag. I love this store so much and wish I could give it more stars!!-Liz
They are such an awsome young group of brite people. I love them all and appreciate everything they do for me. They are so easy to talk to and are very helpful. I wish the best for every single one of them Im their brite futures to come. GOD BLESS 🥰
Great Selection of Quality Cloths at a value. Available, Attentive & Alert Staff Members. Outgoing and informative Staff Members. UC operates from some virtuous core values that dictate higher customer service and promote a culture of trust that runs deep from employs to customers to store policy.
Absolutely love this store !!
Great! Friendly staff. Good service. Good clothes. And nice area! Love!
Great place to cash in your used, but still fashionable clothes/shoes. Get cash for your clothes, use it for newer stuffs.
If you’re looking for nice clothes for a GREAT price, this is the place to check out! I have found some amazing items at this location! They also buy your used clothes too! The only reason I’m not giving them 5 stars is because I feel like it all depends on the individual buying your clothes and if they think it’s “stylish” enough to buy or not.
Great selection! My only complaint is the fact my sister and I didn’t know about the referral program and I could have save 20% off my purchase of $100+ for being a new customer! Other than that, scored tons of stuff at a fantastic price!:)
Had a great experience selling! The employees were all very attentive and smiled while still hard at work. They don’t act rude at all when they can’t take your clothes, which is a big step up from other places I’ve been to. The only issue I had is there is not a large selection of plus sized clothing options for women, and the ones that are aren’t very fashionable. They do have a great selection in sports wear for plus size. They have a very cute selection of shoes. The men’s clothing is very nice. Will return to keep on shopping!
First time ever coming in! The two girls up front were so nice & the store looked so nice! I’ll never go to Plato’s closet again this store is SO much better! Debbie was amazing and so friendly and should be the stare manager if she’s not already🤣!!
I am simply stunned by some of the comments here and cant help but wonder if theyre from a competitor. No store is prefect but not only have I found a number of cool pieces here for both my girlfriend and me at a great price but the staff is always very attentive. They have some great new items too and the prices on those are also excellent.Ive never been thrilled with what I get for selling but I got more here than I have anywhere else and when they were offering 40% more for store credit, that was far more than Ive been offered anywhere else including Austin or San Antonio, even at consignment shops.I dont know if everyone will love this place as much as we do but they get in a lot of new items daily and it is most certainly worth checking out on a regular basis IMHO.
I have not shopped here but today I cut my hand skateboarding and drove to the nearest store I could find because I felt as if I was gonna pass out. When I ended up at this location the staff welcomed me and administered proper first aid on the spot. I was comforted and given water and crackers to equalize my blood sugar. I truly appreciate the kindness expressed by the staff here. Thank you
Always helpful and the staff is there to aid any concerns or questions you might have.
A great selection of things I couldnt find anywhere else at amazingly low prices!
I found my new favorite place to shop! Not only was it clean, well organized with amazing staff, but they actually have clothes that fit me for cheap! I was amazed! Skip Platos Closet, skip the Goodwill, and go get some amazing things for you and your man! ^_^
Allergy Haven Up In Here!!! wonderful customer service, super friendly. If they had face masks they would sell like hot cakes.
Everytime I visit Uptown I have a great experience! Regardless of if I find anything, the staff is always friendly and helpful. They start holds for you as you shop and are attentive at the fitting rooms. Checkout is quick and easy!
Came in first time to check it out. Wow. We scored! Found a lot of name brands and something for everyone . Practically brand new. I will definitely be back often to see whats new and in store . Very friendly staff as well.
This place has the cutest clothes and the best deals! Not only did I find super cute outfits but I found my favorite jewelry designers and accessories! This place is definitely a snag for any time of the year!
The San Marcos location always has so many things to choose from and all at reasonable prices. Every time I go I always leave with a handful of clothes. Staff is friendly and helpful also. This is my favorite location!
The people were REALLY nice here. But the selection for plus size/seasonal apparel was really lacking. A lot of plus size stuff was overworn or frumpy. I found ONE dress that I liked.
Looked and smelled beautiful from the start. Went to sell some iteams and the associates were very kind and explained how everything worked. The associates also asked of we needed help and noticed when we needed a dressing room before we asked. Will definitely be making this a spot to shop at.
Great selection and helpful staff. Ill be back!
I love this place so much, and everyone who works there is pretty nice :)
Staff are super friendly Erika helped us out and they let me bring my puppy in! This was the best part I hate leaving him alone & they made us all feel welcome the whole time. They have a lot of young clothes probably all donated from TXST students & a nice vintage wrack!
Affordable, cute clothes!
After being poorly treated at Platos Closet I came to Uptown Cheapskate and was treated like an absolute princess! Platos denied all of my clothes while Uptown gladly took some of mine in. I have nothing but positives things to say about this location. The prices are great, the sales are amazing, and the staff is nothing but kind. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. (:
Its so great. Theyre clothes are so cute and the staff is so friendly. Thanks for helping me find my hoco dress!!❤️
This place is awesome! I got an awesome Groupon deal and their sales are really good! The staff is always so nice and helpful, especially James! Highly recommend this place if you are on a budget but want fashionably relevant and quality clothes.
The girl who helped me with the nose ring and glasses wasnt very friendly.I find it annoying you can’t leave the store. I asked if it’s okay if I run to grab a coffee and come back (because I knew it take awhile) but she kind of gave me a distasteful look and told me we should be done with my bag in 15 mins.So I waited right by the cashier 30 minutes later. Which isn’t a big deal but was annoying. I could have left and come back. Which they say you can do but apparently give you dirty looks if you do. The girl working put a bad taste in my mouth with how unfriendly she was. If you don’t like your job don’t work there.Be friendly and let us leave and come back. Shouldn’t be that big of a deal to hold us there.
I sold some clothes plus a sterling silver ring and necklace. They only offered to give me five dollars. I do like the store but feel I never get a fair deal when I try to sell here.
Love this store. Great selection of clothes from many name brands at bargain prices. Employees are very kind and helpful as well if you want to find something.
Great prices in all sizes, clean, fairly easy to go through and most of the employees are very helpful! I shop here a few times a month and can always find great clothes and shoes at cheap prices! Open 10-8pm I think M-sunday. They mostly give a fair price for clothes I bring in. My husband likes fishing shirts like Magellan and Ive found 3 or 4 now for $10 or less in great or new shape.
My first time going but definitely will be coming back! Friendly staff & the store is super clean and organized!
Love this place!
I randomly stopped by and found some amazing things ! Plus I received 20% off of my purchases
Kudos to Kayla for going through a bunch of hassle for me, while I held on the phone, and she went to hunt down something I was looking for. I live a 25 minute drive away and wanted to make sure they had what I wanted before making the drive. I have been there a few times and always leave with a few items. Although Kaila did find one exact thing I wanted, I didnt want to do the 35 mile round-trip just for the one thing.Im giving 5 stars, anyway, because of the grand customer service. I will be in San Marcos probably Saturday and will go in to the store and probably get a few things.
I love this place! I always walk out with something. I dont know how often they change the product in there but I always see new things when I go in
This place is awesome! Super organized and clean. Staff was amazingly friendly and helpful, down to the cashier. They seemed to really enjoy working there. Much easier to go through than Platos. It is a much more upscale resale experience and reminds me a bit of Montrose back home. My ONLY qualm is that the shoe sections are labeled with itty bitty stickers from a label maker so you do have to go down every aisle and move past people to see what size was in what section. A few big size flags would do the store some good. It wasnt a big enough issue for me to not love my experience and already plan a second trip back. I got the outfit below for $12. Also I LOVED the fact that the spacious dressing rooms have 3 labeled hooks so you know which ones you didnt like, havent tried on and want to purchase are. So handy.
My favorite uptown cheapskate location. I have been to the ones in SA and Dallas but this one is soooo awesome! A lot of the clothes still had original tags and the high brand selection was pretty big. Plus the staff were nice and attentive. They even took the time to have a small conversation with my 7yr old to see how his day was going.
Ok, I get that they are having a charity sale, great. However, not allowing you to look before purchasing (“donating”) a $15 bag is poor policy. I was probably going to purchase that and look around the store, but was not allowed to even view the items before buying a bag? How do I know if I want anything? What if there’s nothing I want? Very very poor policy. Maybe that was just the people that were talking to me. One employee was kind. One was not. So maybe it’s a 50/50 shot. Still, however, a poor experience.
Great selection most staff were ok but the particular associate i dealt with seemed maybe prejudice, or at least in different towards people not the same as her.....
Nice place, nice trim
Cleaned out my closet and made some money. 😆 They have some good items for sale in the San Marcos store location. Cant wait for the grand opening this month.
Pretty awesome place. Definitely will be checking this place out again. ❤️
So I wanted to give this place a chance since it is a resale store and I love shopping at Platos Closet. So I went into this store looking for a deal and did not find one. The store was clean but the quality of the clothes did not match up with the prices they were asking for. I am glad I went in just to say I did but if you want a deal keep with the other used clothing stores in San Marcos.
I love this place! Every time I go always find great deals and the staff are always friendly and helpful!
Absolutely amazing shop! Such good deals, friendly staff, and such a great selection when it comes to clothes! You will regret not going here.
