And what is the best part of shopping here? Proceeds of the store go back into ministry and directly help the people of Navarre.
They are open, both for shopping and accepting donations, Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Good Neighbor Thrift Store, We Care Ministries and the Lindy Bush Food Pantry are all ministries of the Navarre United Methodist Church.
The thrift store helps fund multiple missions such as Navigators, Gideons International, feeding Navarre school children through the Weekend Food Program, Walk on Water Prison Ministry, Bright Bridge Ministries, Set Free Refuge, Navarre Senior Center, Wreaths Around America, Reboot, among many other missions.
The Weekend Food Program was able to provide more than 14,000 food bags to Navarre students during the 2022-2023 school year.
The program has an enthusiastic volunteer pool – passionate about feeding those who might need a little help over the weekend.
Manager Laura Beth Snow is very thankful for the numerous volunteers that dedicate their time to helping the mission of Good Neighbor Thrift Store.
“Most volunteers have a sort of niche, an area they love working in,” Snow said.
The last day Good Neighbor Thrift Store will be open in 2023 is December 22. The thrift store will reopen Jan. 3, 2024.
Every Friday, Good Neighbor Thrift Store has huge discounts on all clothing. They sell between 700-900 pieces of clothing every Friday.
“That’s how we keep the clothing turned over and our inventory fresh every day,” Snow said.
Their inventory is vast, ranging from furniture and household goods to books, boardgames and handbags.
“We take pride in our merchandise being clean and functional,” Snow said. “We test things to ensure everything is working.”
Good Neighbor constantly has sales going on. The type of sale depends on the availability of volunteers, inventory and what they have a lot of each week.
“Every day that the store is open, we have something half-priced or a buy-one get-one- free special,” Snow said.
Make sure to stay tuned to their Facebook page for upcoming sales and special events.
The greeter will tell you the Good Neighbor Deal of the Day when you walk-in the doors.
On top of the frequent sales, Good Neighbor offers 10% off to all military servicemen and women.
Anytime the thrift store is open, volunteers accept donations on the side door of the building. Good Neighbor has a finite amount of space, so furniture is accepted as space allows.
