21.01.2022 CHECK THIS OUT!! Nintendo Game & Watch Donkey Kong in very good condition. Must see for collectors. $180. No Facebook sales. Open 10am Wednesday.

20.01.2022 Opening on Friday at 9.30am. Pic shows a few of the low priced Lounge Suites available. Also a few pics of a coffee table with 6 opening sections, all with a music box in them.., and only asking $120.00..

20.01.2022 - The pic below might look humorous, but it's a good depiction of and it's anything but humorous. People steal donations left outside at the Thrift Shop. They sneak in on foot or with empty car boots under the cover of darkness, either one person or in groups, and they're rummaging through bags, making a mess, throwing your donatio...ns around and stealing whatever they can carry. We have good security cameras and footage is forwarded to police. Mostly the culprits are caught. However, we don't necessarily get your donations back as they're generally sold for quick cash. ' : * Drop your donations off when there are staff onsite to take inside: Mon 8am - 1pm; Wed & Fri 8.00am - 3pm. * If you can't drop off during these times, drop off early in the morning Mon/Wed/Fri, after the sun comes up, so items don't sit out overnight. * Place everything you can into the donation bins onsite, in Woolworths carpark or Mitre 10 carpark. Please seal bags so items don't spread through the bin and don't place breakables in the bins, even wrapped - they break with the weight on top. * If you have a large load, cannot bring it in during the times listed above and live in the local area, please call us on 8842 1277 or send us a Facebook message and we'll be happy to collect it from you. THANKS EVERYONE - LET'S MAKE IT COUNT!

20.01.2022 Wow! Right now we are as busy or busier than we have ever been, with the number of customers coming through the door to the amount of donations flooding in. It's wonderful to see. It really does take a small army of people to keep the wheels turning and I'm personally so grateful to each and every one of our volunteers. They work incredibly hard for our community. Over the coming days/weeks I'm going to share here some of the jobs our volunteers do behind the scenes, to give you, our supporters, a better idea of what really is involved in keeping the operation running as it does. Thanks vollies! (Lisa)

10.01.2022 ... Every Monday morning, Brian brings inside the donations left onsite over the weekend. This involves moving huge amounts of items left under the verandah, and emptying the donation bins. He then heads into town to empty two more donation bins, filling the ute tray, then unloading the ute to bring the donations inside for sorting. He supports other volunteers by unpacking, sorting, cleaning and emptying bins - he just sees what needs do...ing. Every Thursday while no one is onsite, Brian spends a couple of hours taking all our hard rubbish to the dump. He does this rain or shine, and it often takes more than one trip. He separates out metal and cords, for which we can receive money for recycling. The dump runs save the Thrift Shop hundreds of dollars a year, which would be otherwise spent on having the skip bin emptied. I've never heard Brian complain about the work he does, regardless of how messy it can be. Brian works incredibly hard doing work that would go unnoticed to many, but is a huge support to other volunteers. Brian's patience, willingness to work when the weather would keep most of us inside, and the support he provides is wonderful. ! . See more

07.01.2022 HUGE SHOUTOUT TO THOSE DONATING GOODS!! Wow! How wonderful it is to be well & truly back in the swing, with our community again able to purchase essential clothing & household items at low prices. We have had literally tons of much needed donations flowing in since reopening. THANK YOU to those who so generously donate to CVCO.

06.01.2022 Good morning! We are in urgent need of newspaper for wrapping customer purchases. If you have any surplus, even just one paper, we'll be so grateful if you can drop it in to the shop please

06.01.2022 It's here! Christmas gear! You asked for it

04.01.2022 It takes a LOT of volunteers to staff our two shops, which provide an essential service to our community through low priced clothing, linen and household goods. Never have we been as busy as we are right now. Due to increased customers and donations, volunteer holidays and ill health we find ourselves in need of some more COUNTER STAFF to join our friendly team URGENTLY. If you are available a morning or afternoon once a week or fortnight (or more!), can tally multiple items in your head and are confident using a cash register and eftpos machine, please send us a private message for more info, phone 8842 1277 or call in to the shop Mon, Wed or Fri between 8.30am and 3pm and ask to see Lisa Kakoschke, Manager. Looking forward to hearing from you!

04.01.2022 The clothing / linen / accessories shop ONLY will be open tomorrow. 10 in store at one time.

04.01.2022 Wow! Check out these treasures in store!
