      My mom went to this store on 11/20/2023. She said she was checking out the manager name ****** aka ***********Came over to the register Accusing her of switching price tags. My mother felt very embarrassed because why is this white woman accusing her of changing the price tag. ****** not all black people steal or change the price tags. American Thrift store yall need better management instead of racist people accusing people of stealing. Shame on y'all.Update 12/5/2033 so my mom went in the store again today. So ****** (*****) is basically discriminating against my mother accusing her once again of changing prices. I called myself to confront her about it she hung up on me.

      The store manager has tried to reach the customer multiple times to resolve and left a voicemail. We have not received communication back from the customer.

      I purchased 5 items from this location that were labeled "bag misc office" for roughly $58(nothing was marked "as is) everything was bagged and in the office supply section so there was no way to test it because like I said it was bag. I looked up American thrift store return policy and product safety policy and no where on there does it say that they don't take items labeled "misc office" and also their safety policy states that all products are thoroughly tested and in safe working order but obviously that's not the case if every single item out of the 5 items purchased is in non working order. Tras: ****** terminal: 050015067-117004 The snobbish manager I spoke to when I called and heard all this non sense was ******.
