A new thrift store with a familiar name is opening on State Street in Boise, part of big plans for a local nonprofit.
St. Vincent de Paul Southwest Idaho is moving its existing store at 6464 W. State St., which sells clothes, furnishings and other used items, into the old Dollar Tree space down the road, at 4614 W. State St. in the Collister Shopping Center.
Meanwhile, the store being vacated will undergo a major renovation; once it reopens, St. Vincent de Paul will operate both locations.
The Dollar Tree store closed in late April., and St. Vincent began some minor remodeling there over the summer, the Idaho Statesman previously reported . The one-story space is sandwiched between Paint Life Supply Co., and Durity Vape and Smoke 4.
St. Vincent de Paul plans to open that Collister store at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday with a 20% off grand-opening sale through Sunday, Oct. 6.
The nonprofit organization’s vacated State Street store, about 1.5 miles away, will close temporarily for several months beginning Monday as a significant Ada County Highway District project takes over the State Street and Pierce Park Lane intersection.
