  • Changes Are Coming

    Key Changes by September 1

    The 10% member discount will be discontinued at the Thrift Shops and on shophousingworks.com, but will continue at the Bookstore Cafe. Instead, for Advocate and above members, the Thrift Shops will offer 30% off when signing-up in-store and special discount days/months periodically throughout the year, both in stores and online.

    When signing-up in-store, customers will no longer be able to choose monthly payments, but this option will continue online. The only way to sign-up in-store will be by paying the full annual amount at the register.
