There's been some changes at the CTS Thrift Store in Dumfries.Â
More in an email between Potomac Local and ACTS spokeswoman Jessica Bibb:Â
1. What exactly has changed? Please describe new items, fixtures, signage, pricing, new or difference items not before in the store?ÂÂWe've made the thrift store more shopper friendly. We've reorganized the shopping experience by categorizing the clothing, housewares, furniture, etc. We've added a purse wall and sorted the accessories as well. Paul Bartosch is the one who complete redesigned and improved the thrift store!Â2. Why the changes?ÂÂWe made the changes to better accommodate the shoppers and the wonderful variety and quality of good we sell. We have a little bit of everything for everybody. It's also a fun and inexpensive way to experiment with different styles of clothing and jewelry. Thrift stores are the original "one stop shopping" experience to meet different needs. So, it was important for us to make our space more engaging to the community.Â3. How many thrift stores does ACTS operate? Changes at one or all stores?ÂÂACTS owns and operates one thrift store. It's extremely important to highlight that 100% of the thrift store revenue goes directly back to ACTS to better serve those in need in our community.
