I love how this place is more than a thrift store. They invest in their community and are dedicated to making our world a better place. They have a lot of inventory too and their prices are great. The people who work there are phenomenal. Make sure to stop here!

Wonderful thrift store, have found many pieces of furniture to help organize my home at great prices. The staff is very friendly and helpful!

Awesome place that always has great deals. They have a little bit of everything. There are different deals for each day of the week. It is definitely a great place for people who need clothes or household items on a budget. Everyone there is really friendly. I personally like to collect old movies and vintage clothes and I normally find a few good things evertime that I go. If you like thrift stores you should definitely check this place out!!!!!

Had a excellent experience found everything I was looking for and for a really reasonable and cheap price and the employees were extra nice especially Josh, Micah and Chase they were very nice and helpful with all of my transactions

I called and was put on hold for over ten minutes and no one ever picked up my call, so I hung up and called again and was sent to a voice mail 3 times. Im trying to help them by making a donation but seems they really dont want it. I will donation to another location that appreciates it. These people in Brandon are not very friendly!!

High prices, didnt know I was shopping at the it sells for this online store. Also, maybe stop overpricing things. You guys use to be good idk if management changed or what but I wont be donating anymore to you guys as well. Love how they also print stuff up sometimes and it says sells for this online when you literally look and it sells for cheaper. Will do my business elsewhere.

Helping employees good products and prices

I didn’t get a chance to look at the whole store but the part I did see I cant wait to go back! The employees were friendly and fast.

The employees are friendly, helpful, and always ready to help with whatever you need. The prices are great!! I love to go there because you never know what you are going to find! I definitely recommend going there!!!

Their employees wear masks as chin protectors only and do not enforce mask wearing. Employees and most customers walking around with masks pulled down exposing nose and/or mouths. I voiced this as a concern and the lady working there said they are exempt because they are non-profit...then she stated she doesn’t think masks do any good anyway. Then after having voiced my concern about this she insisted on holding the door open for us so we had to go right past her (only one door in and out), pulled her mask down from her nose and mouth, and shouted something in our faces. Will NEVER return nor will we donate anything to them again!!!

Literally the most disgusting store I have ever been in. Smell like pee. The carpet on the floor is disgusting and the fitting rooms were so nasty. I didnt even want to touch anything in there.

I LOVE this thrift store! Very well organized and always something cute to buy! Love that it goes to a nonprofit.

OMG. What happened to this place???? I have been shopping there for years and have bought so many things there, especially books. The prices didnt just double, they TRIPLED. I can understand that the $1 hardbound books then only becomes .50 on media day which is too cheap. Instead of tripling the prices, probably because of media day, just stop selling the books half price on media day. Otherwise it makes it hard for us who cant shop on media day. Now I got to Habitat to buy my books because they are still $1. All the other things are ridiculous. They have ceramic things with broken legs and arms for $3-5. I wouldnt even give you .50 for those. If you got a new manager who did this, you need to get rid of them.

Well I went here bc o didnt have money for a brand new mattress and box springs. So they have this beautiful pillow top and my cousin came to bring it home and he bought one as well, they said mine had just came in and I was lucky. That night I found bed bugs crawling seen one on blanket and looked at mattress to see its infestation. I called this place to get my money bck or at least give me one that was clean, and they did absolutely nothing. And then i had to buy sprays to treat the room so it didnt spread to the rest of the house, needless to say it was not a good experience, not something Godly ppl would do to someone who is struggling

Still my favorite thrift store in the area

Hit or miss experience. I have found a few good things in here. Lots of junk that nobody wants or will ever want. If you can sort through that to find the diamonds in the rough, you can get some great deals. Clothing for babies & children is AWESOME. They have a huge selection at next to nothing prices, especially if you find something that has their colored discount tags. Discounts are color coded and range from 30-70% off whatever is on the price tag.I usually hit them up on my morning circuit. The Goodwill down the road opens at 9; I go there and then hit Lighthouse because they open at 10.Service is also a hit or miss. There are some nice salespeople and some rude, middle-aged to older ones. Theres one lady in particular who wont hesitate to rudely ask you to move (or just give you dirty looks) because shes replenishing stock or moving things around. I just avoid her.

Have a variety of gently used items. With color tags that vary the percentage off.

Went to Light House with my mom and sisterI do I found the missing salt shaker that matched my set. I also found two really nice blouses in beautiful condition. My sister and my mom both sound great items to purchase also. Lots of good Thrift buys.

Ive been there many times, the staff is always friendly.

Always great deals here. Staff super nice. And all proceeds go back to the community through outreach

Can always find something unique here. % off tags on clothes. Thank you God bless.

This place is ALWAYS GREAT. They had a great selection today. 25% off on Monday Tuesday Thursday and Friday go check it out

Such a kind and welcoming staff. Great selection of furniture! Amazing! Found some really great deals!

Like most thrift stores its a hit or miss BUT when you find something its totally worth it. Great prices and great staff. You have to go often but the furniture selection is always good.

This store has lots of good used items. Sometimes you can find really good deals at this store.

I love the deals. On the other hand, the dressing rooms are always filthy. The mirrors are always dirty. I have found some decent deals on kids clothes. The trick is...you have to drop in often for deal searches and you can win!

Still dirty. Needs closed for a complete renovoation & they raised the prices, trying to be like Goodwill except the monies at Lighthouse does go to helping people unlike Goodwill and their false advertising of how they employ the handicapped!The people who work @ Lighthouse are friendly & I love the fact it is CHRISTIAN BASED!!

Some good stuff but not a lot for teenagers, the shopping experience would be better if the carpets were cleaner and if they didnt only play religious music. The music alone if the main reason my daughter doesnt like to shop there. The racks could be a bit more organized, and they need to be more consistent with the pricing. One shirt will be $3 and the next will be $8.

Staff is very nice, good experience the few times I’ve came so far. 👍🏼

STOP donating to Goowill and Salvation Army and donate at the LIGHTHOUSE MINISTRIES instead. They help people in need in the Brandon/ Valrico community. If you really want to make a difference with your donations, donate here.

Its a wonderful place, the people working there are very kind. Their prices are the best in towns thrif stores. I love that store.

Called earlier today to see if they had and item in store. The lady I spoke with who gave her name as Stevens, advises she was looking directly at the item and would place it behind the register. 15 minutes later we arrived to the store, the item is not behind the counter and Stevens is no where to be found. I called the store again to find out what happen to the item I requested. I am currently on hold as I type this review, no one has gotten back on the line to check to see if Im still here and its been an hour since I was placed on hold.

As with most donations driven thrift shops, variety and quality varies on an hour to hour and day to day basis. Wide selection of furniture, clothing, household goods and electronics. Some trips I find nothing, others are a bonanza. Pricing is fair, but as resellers are becoming more common in the industry, prices have crept up a bit in line with other thrift shops in area. Still though, the staff is almost universally friendly, and there are good discounts that pop up when merchandise has been on the rack for awhile, or certain categories have regular discount days each week. I have found many amazing deals over the years that keeps me coming back. Also, your purchases help to fund a very good ministry in the area.

Love this thrift store. Great prices and the staff is wonderful.

Love this Christian thrift store. Lots of furniture and clothing is freshly washed. It is well organized, and the staff is helpful and polite.

Employees are not helpful. Great buys. Smells musky inside.

The hours say that they are open until 6pm and a super rude older gentleman threw us out at 5:40 - we had just come in to look at a few books real quick hoping to grab a two or three titles and it he told us that we had to go now - 20 mins before closing. Won’t be back.

I like this thrift store. That being said last time I was there they had brand new cash registers but the carpet still looks like a crime scene! I would like to shop there more if the floor wasnt so gross!

Awesome thrift store! Well organized and good prices supporting a great cause!

They were the only store where I found a pair of work pants and that were on sale. Found lots of other bargains as well.

Great selection and they are aleays rotating their merchandise. I also love that they help members of the community.

I love what the place does for the people,, but when I found a great deal on it particular item and I get to the register June decided to tell her manager Tracy that I guess that was a low price or something like that and then preceded to lie to me and told me that they were not selling that because it was a medical tens unit and told me they will sell me the bag only so meanwhile in the counter they had another one for sale for a lot more money so I took a picture of it to show her that they do have a have them for sale so she took out, they just refuse to sell it to me. I told June that she did not need to lie to me if they wanted more money. I asked to see it again and she told me no because she knew I was going to take a picture of it since I told I was calling the office, I think that is just bad poor business, and rudeness that should of been handled better then that. By both parties.

Prices keep going up, but if you look for sales its still good.

I truly enjoyed giving a hand to help. Sweet people and manager. Ill go back.

The furniture is real cheap, if youre looking for a TV console or a desk hutch. There was some kind of high-pitched alarm going off with no employees caring to cease it. I didnt look through the clothes, but I also didnt want to at first glance. The back has many holiday items like 100s of Halloween candy totes or Christmas decorations. As far as kitchen items one narrow aisle is all they have. There was literally an empty jar of Talenti ice-cream. I recommend you go to any of the other family stores in Brandon/Tampa.

Spend a little time to find some great deals.

Really good things. And really good prices

Its cluttered. Shelves hardly organized, the carpet throughout the store is dirty, and hardly new items in...

LOVE THE STAFF!!! You can get some really nice stuff for real cheap!! I go weekly!

Nice store, reasonable prices and way better than Goodwill!

The. One. ]n. Brandon. Helpfull. Spac%.well. priiced. And. V. A. Discount. Worth passing the word around.. Ty Jesus be with you.. keep up the good work.. We will be back

Awesome staff amazing prices. Nice variety of items.

Elizabeth Gracyn. Not so odd for Lighthouse Ministries Thriftstore to play religious music. After all, its a Christian organization.... I personally find it delightful.

We go there all the time... Some of the stuff is over priced but still a good place to shop especially if u have kids cuz they grow so fast.. Just like any other thrift store just have to check the clothes before buying... My kids have gotten alot of nice stuff there for a reasonable price... Furniture I think is kinda high for being donated but clothes and Nick nacks are good deals

A place with the opportunities to help others and also great staff.Awesome peaple.

Very reasonable and nice furniture.

Love going to Lighthouse you never know what you might find there.

They were very quick to help us remove the furniture and very polite

Prices are fair. Lighting is very dark inside and the carpet should be pulled up and just have concrete. Would look and smell better.

Great deals on clothes and books.

Very nice gal at check out very friendly!

Best place to take your old things they are given not sold to people in need

Large thrift shop, not the most organized but good prices

This place has gone down hill. The carpets smell of urine and cat pee. The clothing has mold on it. There was human feces on the changing room walls. So gross. I Will never go back there again!!!😷👃👎👎👎

Great selection, fair prices, awesome staff. Im sure it helps alot of people and does alot of good!

Good prices and you are helping them help others!

Very friendly staff, vast selection of vintage clothing and shoes, very affordable. Its my favorite in Brandon.

Staff is always very friendly and welcoming, prices are fair and selection is huge.

They always have just what i need for a ridiculously low price

I must say, I have furninshed my entire home with things from this place. Its like a scratch and dent place with some of the items. 2 years ago the price on items were a deal. Now theres new employees and the prices has sky rocket. When i walk in now i feel like im walking into a high end consignment store. I understand they have shelters and help folks out in need, but geez, what about the customers who cant afford to go to the store because of their budget. All and all, i do like the store, just wish theyd go down on the price of items.

This location is ok. Its neither here nor there. Seems very run some

Good amount of furniture at very low prices.

For a great cause, and find hidden treasures

Its a hit and miss kinda thing but love to go there

Great prices and good brand items

Cheap good items! Love the sales too

Love the price. Very clean.

Big store. Low prices. Lots of furniture and books.

Great finds at a great price! Friendly staff!

Great deals always fine something

Great place very cheap

They have alot of stuff all given by donations

Got a recommendation to come get books from my sons teacher went by 10 minutes before 6 a guy met me at the door stating they were closed. When a very rude attitude.

Large store, lots of clothes and furniture. Some books, records, vhs and housewares. Housewares area very messy.

This is a place that helps our community so even tho its not the best Im always looking

Good place to search for bargains

Love the staff and the store.

Dirty will never go there again

Was a little miffed. A dvd comes together with 3 in the case and charged$6.00 this is ridiculous. Also got charged for $ 5.99 for 3 items and only had 2. Register cannot be seen by customers.

Very cold, dirty, unorganized. Prices are on the high side for what they have. Will not go back.

Good very good

Best place ever

Not as much to select from as on previous visits but still worthwhile.

Quite literally a junkyard, except you have to pay for other peoples garbage.

Fast service!

Items are higher priced than goodwill.

Great place

Some things are cool most things are overpriced

NICE, LOW PRICES

The prices are ridiculously high, the store is in major disrepair(stained carpet, trash on floors, holes in the ceiling), the store is filthy, the lighting is awful, the quality of merchandise is lacking, the store is unorganized and in complete chaos.
