An original thrift store, formerly known as Helping Hands Thrift Store, is now Dano’s Consignment Store.
It’s located on Main Street in Dodge Center selling: Bibles, Christian self-help books, musical instruments, vinyl records, video games, toys, electronics, CD’s, DVD’s and household items. There is also Minnesota Twins, Minnesota Vikings and other sportswear available. His whole mission is to help the community. He approaches his business with an open heart. His favorite Bible Verse that he uses as a guide is Matthew 5:16 “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Most of the items in the store are priced at $10 or less. “I want our community to have a nice, clean place to shop that won't hurt their wallet” owner Daniel McKittrick explained. There’s a huge sale March 25-29th. It’s 50% off of items priced at $49.99 and under. Also 25% off of items priced at $50 and over.
Consignment shops generally have a significant impact on the local economy, and the most well known stores are often a staple of the community. Not to state the obvious, but the higher the demand and quality of the item you're selling, the higher the profit for both retailer and seller. There has been a rise in e-commerce-based consignment shops over the past several years. Dano’s Consignment Store is on trend by selling items on eBay as well as in the store. Right now his storefront is filled; however if you have an item that you want sold he can place it on his eBay store.
Dano’ Consignment Store doesn’t ask for donations but there are times when people have donated items. The community still remembers that Daniel operated a thrift store. The operation of the store is focused on foot traffic looking to buy items or sell high value items on eBay. If you’re not sure how much your prized possessions are worth; take it to Dano’s and they will give you an estimate.
Anyone doubting the widespread acceptance and popularity of shopping for treasures in Dodge Center need to look no further than Dano’s Consignment Store. Established since 2011; the operation of gently used items has stood the test of times. Consignment stores can adjust prices according to the need and what is fair.
