Great Reputation, Quality Merchandise,
and Friendly Member Volunteers!
The thrift shop is the main source of funding for our programs. It is staffed and managed entirely by our member volunteers. We are proud of our reputation as one of the best and friendliest thrift shops in the Treasure Valley. Our members work hard to make sure the merchandise is always good quality, clean, and priced fairly. Come see for yourself!
We offer quality merchandise, including a selection of antiques and collectibles; men’s, women’s, and children’s apparel and shoes; books for every age; baby clothes and accessories; sporting goods; toys; housewares; linens; home decor; seasonal items; and jewelry, all at affordable prices. Our “YouNique Boutique” racks contain better clothing lines, some never even worn.
It’s a Four-Peat!
Thanks to our members, customers, and community that took the time to vote in the Idaho’s Best Award, Assistance League of Boise has been named Idaho’s Best Thrift Store in Idaho and in the Treasure Valley for the fourth year in a row.
