It's true, some of the stuff is dirty and not worth your time, but I've found so many great finds here! My mom and I have been shopping here since I was 9, and have gone just about every week since. You may not fond something the first time, but perseverance is key at the attic. The volunteers are typically really nice, especially Margaret.

Wow! Jennalee2 sounds as if she has a personal ax to grind.... An ex-employee? ...A shoplifter who was banned maybe? I love The Attic! I do mixed-media art, and I've found lots of wonderful bargains on fabrics, stamps, yarn... I guess it depends on what you're looking for as to whether or not you find anything of personal value or interest. I've seen beautiful, framed art, lamp, mirrors...
