Unadvertised special - Every week there is something special on sale but you have to come into the store to find out what it is.  But this week we'll tell you - all Christmas items will be 75% off. This will be the last week we'll have any out so get in to get the bargains.

 

 

 

SECOND CHANCES THRIFT SHOP HOURS - Fridays from 3:00 pm to 8:00 pm and Saturdays from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm.   There is something for everyone--clothes for women, men, and children, books, jewelry, many, many housewares, toys, a card shop, a section with new items, and much more.  You'll find a Silent Auction for items higher in value and a corner for vintage and collectible items.  All sales are cash only and sales tax is collected. 

COME SEE THE CHRISTMAS DISPLAYS

AT BARGAIN PRICES!!!

There's a section in the back of the store for patrons to enjoy free cookies, and coffee or to just sit and rest.  The cookies are fresh every week and recipes are available if you have a favorite.

 

And we always have free cookies baked by the "Cookie Lady" and coffee!

Donations are accepted upstairs during store hours or on Tuesday from 9:00am to 2:00 pm.   We accept clothing, small appliances (coffee pots, toasters, etc.) and all kinds of household goods, linens, shoes, children's toys, puzzles, craft items, books, and jewelry. 

We do not accept large appliances, furniture, television sets, computers, typewriters, text books, technical books, or exercise equipment.  Our basement is not large enough for us to handle big items.  The entrance is on the west side of the building.    We do ask that donations not be left outside the building at any time.   

New items are added weekly.   Mount Joy's Fourth Friday will also be our "Special Sale Day" both inside the store and outside (weather permitting).  So stop in and see us.  

THERE'S A CRAFT AND SEWING CORNER AND A BOOK AREA

AND MUCH MORE!!!!!!!!!

The church is located at the junction of Routes 772 and 230 (Marietta Avenue and Main Street), across from the town clock. 

Turn in at Sassafras Alley ( west of the church) and you'll find limited parking behind the church.

Handicapped accessible.

NOTHING IS WASTED! When items can no longer stay in the store, we have a list of places and persons to whom they can be donated .  Two of the places we donate are sunsetgap.org a Community Center in Cosby, TN and midnightrun.com a mission to the homeless out of Dobbs Ferry, NY.  We also donate locally to GAIN, Churches in the area, and the Salvation Army, and to families in need when we are notified.

We have our "Free Table" which is always full.    Everything on the table is free for anyone who comes into the store.

Check out our church cookbook "Bountiful Blessings" for sale.  The cookbook is $10 if it is purchased in the store and $13.00 if it is to be mailed to you.  Come into Second Chances to see this 600- recipe book and have a cup of coffee with us.  Or email us at fpcmj@embarqmail.com with your address and we'll tell you how to get a copy.    Or send a regular mail request to the address on the home page with a check for $13.00 made out to "First Presbyterian Church" and a cookbook will be mailed to you.

We now have a RADA display in the store.  RADA is the stainless steel cutlery that has been popular for years and sold in churches as fundraisers.  There are many items for you to look at and some are in stock so you can buy them right away.  For others, we will put in your order for you and notify you when it comes in.  The turnaround time is usually one to two weeks.
