Goodwill Super Store

I was never a goodwill shopper until i moved into a better area. I drove by this location and stopped in just to kill my curiosity and walked out with like 6 bags full of NAME BRAND clothing, most with tags still attached! I visit this one and another one not far. This one claims to me a «superstore», i do not know what the criteria is to be considered a superstore but I dont feel this location is… the other location i visit is an old grocery store, it is HUGE and often has better items due to it’s location — but it is not a «superstore»… ANYWAY back on the farm… This Goodwill is nice, people are kind and it is typically clean. I always look at labels, I have found several juicy couture pieces, Michael Kors, Calvin Klein and so on. Some pieces are priced a little high, and sometimes they receive donations that still have garage sale price stickers on them and they don’t take them off before slapping theirs on. i found a vase that had a $ 1 garage sale sticker on and they put their tag on for $ 3.99. HAHAHAHA Put it down and back away…

With all the donations this place gets, you would hope they would take a little more time in making the place more attractive. Also, I would strongly recommend not buying their reading glasses. I bought a couple of pair and both had one stem that protruded out that it wouldn’t even fit behind my ear. When I tried to return them 2 days later I was told they could not refund me or give store credit. Stupid policy. sure wish there was a Salvation Army thrift store in this area… that store actually does good with their profits by helping the poor and needy. As far as I know Good Will doesn’t benefit anyone but their company. Okay, so they give jobs, so does other business like Wal Mart, Ross, Mc Donalds, etc.

Friendly staff, GREAT place for bargains. I have personally picked up 7 DESIGNER bags, that’s right DESIGNER bags, including Coach (yes, it’s real, I know the difference), Guess, and various other not so well known designers — however when I looked up their original prices on the websites, I was STAGGERED by the money I saved by shopping for used bags. I would say for $ 4 or $ 2 (half price day) per purse, it’s money well spent. AND it’s WAY cheaper than Wal-mart’s pitiful non designer bags. Most of the purses are GENTLY used, and some even have the original price tags still attached. I just got a leather Kate van Zandt, and a suede leather Tignanello bags, $ 4 each, but originally sold for $ 139 and $ 89 on the designer website I consulted. I often find BRAND NEW purses, with the original tags still on. Yes, it’s a bit crowded, yes it’s a bit dusty, but if you want some really nice stuff that you can afford, just trudge through everything, look CAREFULLY, or you’ll miss all the great Ralph Lauren shirts (I have 7 of them, all for fall, and were $ 3 — $ 5 each), They have lots of designer clothes if you have the patience to sift through them, you’ll be amazed at how cheap it is to own nice designer clothes! If you’re a fashionista on a tight budget, this is the place to check out. It takes time to sort through the clothes, it’s a bit warm in the store, but your efforts will always be rewarded.

I am not usually a good will fan. I stopped in while dropping off some donations. The place was so busy! It’s huge. Racks and Racks of clothes. The floor is super dusty so you leave with dust all over anything near the ground.
The staff were friendly and nice, but whoa! Not sure what to say about the «goodwill superstore.»
