The moment you walk in to Out of the Closet, you are greeted by the smiling face of Melanie Cody. She has opened up a fabulous thrift store where you can buy, sell and trade your clothes and accessories. Melanie opened the shop in October of 1993. She is a single mother who wants to give back to the community by offering items for even as little as $0.25. She believes that everyone should be able to afford something.
If you have items you want to sell, call and make an appointment. This is not a consignment shop, you can get cash on the spot. You can either take the cash, or trade your items for something of equal value.
Come by and see what Melanie has this week. And come back often as items come and go quickly.
