  1. I have some stuff too! Which thrift store in the plaza are you?? There are two of them. Also.....Goodwill is a joke, there is nothing good about them.Wow, the stories I have heard of how they run this place. My hubby worked there and what I saw was appalling. They threw out a suede leather couch because there was a rip on the front of it. I mentioned to the ADC superviser that they could donate unwanted unworthy items to a shelter and he laughed at me. They trash everything they dont deem sellable.

     

     

    I am located next to the Medicine Shoppe Pharmacy and the Billiards place

     

    Thanks

  2. I have some furniture I would like to donate do you pick up ?

    :rolleyes: :wub: :wub: ]

    BirdMom, you give Much more than I cold ever give, I used to be one of the needy ones and this is my payback!!! Besides, I get bored sitting at home all week and I'd be lost without Helping Hands!! :yahoo: I'll try to make a point to come see you one day although, I'm not a morning person. I'll call to see if you are there, before I come. Thank You for ALL you do!! :wub:

     

    Awwwwwwww!

  3. Mrs. G-Thank you for volunteering your talent and time to Helping Hands. There have been so many vouchers come in this year. It feels good to know that there are good people like yourself go to work day after day to be there for OUR people. I hope that I am working on one of the days you come in to shop at the store so I can give you a hug.

     

    Just thinkin hard-thanks for your support and donations. Thanks for the kind words!!!

    :rolleyes:

  4. I have really noticed that since The Goodwill donation center opened in the Kroger shopping Center our donations at The Thrift Store have dropped considerably. Thank goodness that Mary at The Endless Yard Sale let me buy out her entire clothing inventory. Because of her and our committed donors year after year we have plenty of clothes. What we do not have are the rest of the stuff. These "other" things we sell to raise money for overhead costs to maintain the rental space and business. We are non-profit status because we give between 12k-17k in free clothing to needy on our vouchers.

     

    WE NEED HOUSEHOLD ITEMS AND FURNITURE!

     

    The sale of these pay the bills and make our other programs possible. Contrary to popular belief non-profit organizations do not get free rent, utilities or anything else and the federal govt is constantly changing laws on us!

     

    We are going on our 13th year! I am sure Goodwill Industries . has a good program but please remember we are one of the small businesses in Paulding County that MUST continue to help out OUR people!!!

     

    In reality, I make very little if any money on the business. This community has been very good over the years and my motivation is not to make tons of money or get rich. My store or the thrift business is not going to do that for anyone in the small sector. I am happy in the place in my life the way God has it. I have healthy children. I am almost 45 and my stamina seems to be holding its own. I am thankful for my animals and the roof over my head. I am also deeply thankful for the wonderful Thrift Store.

     

    WE ALSO NEEDS TOYS!!!

     

    Christmas is coming and parents do a lot of shopping at thrift stores when they cannot afford retail prices!!!

     

    I have been working mostly mornings so come say hey!

     

    We are open Mon-Sat 10-6, so please try to bring things to the back door during those hours. We don't want your things being taken by someone other than us. :(

     

    Thank you so very much!!

  5. As many of you know I have a 25c Rack in my store. In the last few days I have been clearing clothes off the other racks in the store to make room for fall and winter (which has already been going out for a couple of weeks). Help me please... my 25c rack is full !!! I really really want to put more on it, but you have to come in and help me clear it off!!! It is simply not right for my fellow Pcommers to sit at home on such a beautiful weekend or WORSE...go to an expensive retail store. WoW! I got so much to put out for you!

     

    you do the math:

    25c each or 4 for $1.00 or 20 pcs for $5.00 and so on...

     

    all items that are 25c are marked on tag!!

     

    SEE YA!!:yahoo:

     

     

    Open 10-6 Mon-Sat

  6. The Thrift Stores of Choice Inc. located at 740 Paulding Plaza in Paulding Plaza shopping center will be providing some clothing assistance to families that suffered a loss due to storm damage friday March 2, 2012.

     

    While our clothing supplies are limited, we are trusting that God will provide for us so that we may provide for others.

    Thanks!

  7. If you still have the purple flannel king size sheet set - please put it back til tomorrow - I found the other pillow case and I need to drop it off. :)!

     

     

    I think its gone but I could be wrong. You can bring it next time you are out this way and I will try to match it to the set :search:

    Thanks!

     

    Where is your store?

     

     

    740 Paulding Plaza

    where are you coming from?

  8. The store is so very full of clothes.

     

    Racks are tightly packed with name brands. I have a round rack full of sweaters.

     

    several racks of beautiful blouses and pull-over and button up shirts, blazers and tons of tank tops.

     

    Lots of nursing scrub tops and pants

     

     

    the spring and summer stock has come out too!!!

     

    but...

     

    we still have coats, jackets and plenty of woolen favorites.

     

    the kids dept is also full and overflowing with clothes, toys and books~

     

    oh and household goods are coming in right now!!!

     

    :clapping:

  9. wellstarcareers.org ALWAYS has CNA postings with several of them being PRN. They seem to need people often at the Paulding Nursing Center. Good luck on taking your phlebotomy certification test. Just remember the order of draw, additives, and safety because the majority of the test is on that. Are you taking the NHA test?

     

    Yes. I am taking the NHA at Chattahoochee. I am studying hard for the next 2 weeks

  10. Have you checked with Tanner? I just took a look at their job openings and they have one listed for a Phlebotomist that is PRN. The website is www.tanner.org. Good luck!

     

     

    Thanks! I will ck it out after I take my exam on the 17th, it may still be there

  11. Does anyone know where they are hiring CNAs? I want a PRN-as needed position because I am still going to take classes and need to keep an eye on the Thrift Store.

    I need a job because the store doesnt make enough money for me to work there all the time. I have girls running it for me and now I have to branch out.

     

    As you know, there is no hope getting a job these days unless you know someone. All of you that know me can talk to your friends at the hospital, nursing homes and home health agencies.....please!

     

    I will also have my Phlebotomy certification after February 17th! :clapping:

     

    Thanks
