I went to get a bottle of wine, and then saw their cigar collection!! Not only did they help me find a great bottle of wine based on my tastes, they helped me select 5 cigars to take home to my husband! On top of all that, they gave me a "first time customer" 10% discount! When I left, there were about 5 gentlemen enjoying cigars together on the front porch. They invited me to stay and join them. Very friendly people and place!

McKay's is a one-of-a-kind shopping experience. People bring us their previously loved books, movies, video games, music, etc., and we offer them cash or store credit in return. Everything you find on our shelves was brought to us by other customers like you! And because of that, you truly never know what you're going to find. Every visit to McKay's is a unique adventure.

Vast selection of used books, video game "stuff," music, Lego. Limited parking is worth the fight. Well-labeled and well-priced; casual, welcoming atmosphere. Our 9-year-old son chose this location for a special day trip from Roanoke. Found freebie box of Civil War books (obviously not always there) to historian husband's delight.
