Ladies and Gentlemen:

On behalf of our client, Savers Value Village, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), we hereby confidentially submit in electronic form for nonpublic review the accompanying changed pages (the “Changed Pages”) to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 11, 2023 (the “Registration Statement”). Capitalized terms used in this letter that are not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to them in the Registration Statement.

The Changed Pages are marked to indicate changes from the Registration Statement and include, among other things, a reverse stock split, the indication of interest expressed by the Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan in purchasing shares of the Company’s common stock, information related to the Omnibus Incentive Plan, the preliminary midpoint of the price range for the Company’s common stock, the expected size of the primary and secondary components of the offering, certain information previously left blank in the Registration Statement that is derived from the preliminary midpoint of the price range and the expected offering size (such as pro forma financial information and dilution information) and certain other related changes.

The Changed Pages and the below responses to the Comment Letter (as defined below) are being confidentially submitted to the Commission for nonpublic view pursuant to the public filing guidelines announced by the Division of Corporation Finance on June 29, 2017 (the “Public Filing Guidelines”). The Company hereby acknowledges its agreement to the Public Filing Guidelines.

In addition, the Company has asked us to convey the following as its response to the Staff of the Commission (the “Staff”) to the comments it received from the Staff in a letter, dated May 24, 2023 (the “Comment Letter”):

Page 2

1. You add back interest paid on debt and dividend-related bonuses in arriving at the non- GAAP financial measure “adjusted operating cash flow.” It appears these adjustments are prohibited by Item 10(e)(1)(ii)(A) of Regulation S-K. Please revise to remove these adjustments or advise.

Response to Comment 1

The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and in response has deleted its disclosure as shown on pages 26, 28, 115 - 116 and 118 - 120 of the Registration Statement as reflected in the Changed Pages.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Cash Flows

Comparison of three months ended April 1, 2023 ...

Cash (used in) provided by operating activities, page 112

2. You state the change resulted primarily from a $24.1 million special one-time bonus and related taxes paid in fiscal 2023. After considering this, it appears operating cash flows for fiscal 2023 were $9.3 million compared to $1.6 million in the comparable prior year period. It is not clear from your disclosure the reason for this increase. Please revise your disclosure as appropriate. Refer to Item 303(b) of Regulation S-K wherein it states “Where the financial statements reflect material changes from period-to-period in one or more line items, including where material changes within a line item offset one another, describe the underlying reasons for these material changes in quantitative and qualitative terms.”

Response to Comment 2

The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and in response has revised its disclosure on page 111 of the Registration Statement as reflected in the Changed Pages.

Response to Comment 3

The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and in response refers the Staff to its disclosure on pages 146 - 147 of the Registration Statement which summarized the material terms of our arrangements with Valvan Bailing Systems NV, and to Exhibits 10.5 and 10.6 of the Registration Statement which are forms of its agreements with Valvan Bailing Systems NV with respect to a CPC facility and an ABP facility, respectively.
