Assistance League of Pueblo owns and operates the Bargain Box Thrift Store on the NW corner of 4 th Street and Chester. Proceeds from the store all stay within the Pueblo community and support our philanthropic programs. The store is run totally by volunteers and is open Tuesday through Saturday. Community members can donate their new and gently used items such as clothing, housewares, artwork, crafts, linens, and more. Our volunteer ladies screen the items and then set them out for sale in the retail sections of the store. The items that are not useable in the store are donated to other charities.
“Changeover” happens in the Spring and the Fall each year; out with the old and in with the current seasonal clothing inventory, usually in April and September. Three weeks prior to “Changeover” is Red Basket Days. Each week customers can fill a red basket to the brim with clothes, shoes, belts, etc. for one low price, for a couple of weeks prior to each seasonal changeover.
Be sure to visit the Bargain Box, you won't be disappointed. We do consider our store to be the "Best Thrift Shop" in Pueblo. Remember our store's inventory depends on donations of gently used clothing, household items, including art work, crafts, linens, books, and more. Remember ALL proceeds stay within the Pueblo community and assist children and families in need.
Though it has not been in the 4th Street location for the entire time, the Bargain Box has been the backbone of our fundraising for over 50 years.
