This is an awesome store with lot of great low prices. I wished I knew about it long time ago. The service personnel have an outstanding attitude as to helping you find things. They have pretty much just about everything you can look for.

I can’t say enough positive things about this place. Not only do they contribute towards help animals in need, but you can find some great qualify items here for very low prices. It is by far my favorite place to thrift in the area.

This is one of my favorite thrift stores to go to , the staff is always welcoming and nice they always have unique items and they have different sales different days of the week. They are also eco-friendly I would say they give you reusable bags or paper bags. 10/10 recommend

One of my favorite thrift shops in the area! As a plus sized woman I was happy to see they had some things in my size. Plus the clothes were organized by size which was a huge convenience. Right now they have a 14 day return policy for clothes and electronics which I appreciate, since there are currently no dressing rooms. Plus there was an adorable cat in the front available for adoption! If I could I would adopt him in a heartbeat.

Prices are very reasonable , it’s a small space but well organized and a lot of quality variety. My personal favorite section is the animal section. The bonus is animals are welcomed inside the store & some of the proceeds go towards animal shelters.

Super well-organized, clean, friendly staff, and reasonable prices, as folks are saying…. but all of that only means so much if you lack fitting rooms. When you’re sizing-challenged like I am, it’s really hard to know if things fit without seeing them on your body. So I probably won’t come back here if I’m looking for clothes. They do have a return policy, but only for store credit. Personally, I don’t have the time or energy to gamble on clothes that may or may not fit. Second Life’s policy more or less makes its customers commit to making a return trip within two weeks. But based on positive reviews, maybe I’m the outlier. If you’re not bothered by not being able to try stuff on, you’ll have a good time here.

Love this place! Sometimes you can really find beautiful items… I love that the entire concept behind this establishment supports animals… It would be beneficial to know when they get new pieces/items in and/or the days they stock the shelves—-especially when it comes to jewelry and shoes.

I went today (8/13) for the first time and 10/10 would recommend! I found some really cute shirts but also found great deals on dog items. As someone who is currently fostering 4 puppies I wish I would have known about this gem months ago!

Very clean and organized. All staff members wear masks and are very helpful and friendly.April 20, 2022Update-- Still an awesome place however they still make you wear a mask and they wipe down all carts after use. Lots of people were grumbling about the mask. I feel it's whatever the store wants to do... It's your choice if you want to shop or not but you must wear a mask still!August 17, 2022Update-- Nothing has changed from April's review. You must still wear a mask to shop . The staff is wonderful!

Over-priced for a 'thrift' store. Yes, I know they help animal rescue groups but still - look up the word 'thrift'. Maybe rename the store.

This place is so awesome, the prices are so low and the stuff is really cool. They have a really big music and movie place, and their vintage stuff is pretty much the same price as everything else.

GREAT options, prices, and phenomenal operations! Better organization, customer service, and presentation than most (of not all) stores I've been to.

Well organized store with a variety of books. I loved their collection of Non Fiction. The clothing is also really nice and inexpensive. I love and support what they are doing for the rescue animals. Also, the staff is really helpful and knowledgeable. I would stop by again to find some good reads!

Very clean and well organized thrift store and they have great sales too. And the profits help animals. What more could you ask for?

I have only been here once, but I fell in love. I made some great purchases for my classroom. I went to both stores and really had great customer service. I was consulted about my purchase and was even showed the quality of a desk I purchased that was originally from Ikea. The prices are great for the quality items. I just wished it opened at 10.

I never write reviews but this store deserves it. Just the best thrift in Atlanta imo especially for smaller stuff (clothes, books, games, cables, stationery, plates...). A shame that the furniture store is closed. Otherwise, the place is neat and organized and the staff is friendly.

Love coming by regularly - great finds and great deals! Knowing the money supports a good cause is the cherry on top!

This is such a well organized, adorable shop! The items are obviously handpicked and every thing is very good quality. I especially love their jewelry selection. Earrings are only 3 dollars, no matter the size or material, which is better than most Goodwills and Value Villages. I have found some of the most unique statement earrings and headscarves here that I wear everyday.

A great thrift store for women's clothing, odds and ends pet supplies, games, records, old VHS, kitchenware, crafting supplies....the furniture place is hit or miss, but always quick to walk through. If you are looking for furniture and didn't find it here, there is always Kudzu nearby. The owner of the store is great! And your money goes to a great cause. My favorite spot to go monthly and donate too!

My husband and I were out for a walk and I wanted to see the shop. Since mask mandates have been lifted and we had only intended to go for a walk, we hadn’t carried masks with us. We were met at the door by a man who, with his hands on his hips, didn’t even say hello but said we needed masks. I apologized and asked if they had some we could use. He rolled his eyes and said “you don’t even have any in your car?” I said that we might but our car was quite far away. He thrust two masks at us and just turned away. It was so rude and I was really embarrassed. I totally support mask wearing and I usually do carry them. We felt so unwelcome that we just walked around for a few minutes and then left.

Great selection and fair prices, all for a good cause. Their pet clothing section is a real treat. They currently have some darling reversible pet jackets from a shut-down Florida boutique priced at $4 apiece-- a very special place. A must-visit for locals and visitors alike.

Best. Second-hand. Store. Ever.first, they have a great cause they are supporting. AS If that wasn't enough, they also have wonderful inventory and great prices. On top of that even, they have killer sales. I always am pleased when I visit second life, with a big bag of new goodies. Never had to pay more than $50 for a lot of great quality items. And last but not least, they have the best staff I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with. Definitely visit this store!

What a great collection of EVERYTHING for sale for a good cause. From home goods and media to fashion and pets, the signs warn you to "buy it when you see it or it might gone" and they are right! I found a formal dress, a suit, a pair of jeans and earrings for under $50. Great deals and proceeds benefit our little furry friends!

I live in Los Angeles but come here often to visit family members. I look forward to shopping at Second Life whenever I’m here, as I always find something unique and beautiful!

This is my favorite thrift store in Atlanta. The front part of the store sometimes has unsold products from other stores and I've found some really cute birthday gifts. They tend to have a really interesting selection of books and graphic novels in stock and the book shelf is organized by subject. The money goes to save the pits. Check it out some time!

This is my favorite place to shop. I find neat, unusual items here which are reasonably priced. The owners offer discounts nearly every day of the week, sometimes as much as 50% off of every item in the store. People who love animals donate nice items, and the staff weeds out what a previous reviewer called "crap".
