Goodwill Retail Store and Donation Center — Attraction in Cambridge

I went into this location to look around for pants and antique items. Upon first entering the store my toddler was walking directly in front of me. More than arms reach of me. As I walked down the aisle, an older lady that was working walked past us and said “lord have mercy”. I ignored it. While shopping, my toddler began getting ansty and began running around a few isles and I followed her. She was laughing as she is use to us playing hide and seek etc. As I am walking around following her, this same older lady gets on the intercom and says “kids need to be kept with their parents, this is not a kids store.” I then over hear this same lady at the register talking to a customer about how she can’t stand when a parent isn’t with their kid or lets their kid walk around. As if I was not within arms length or closer to her the entire time. I have being my toddler in several stores, let alone several goodwill stores, this one included and have NEVER experienced something so rude and discriminatory! When I approached the older lady asking her what her problem was she stated if she had a problem she would say it to me, and that she makes that announcement any time a child is acting wild. (Untrue, and again she’s a toddler). I have followed up with the corporation in Baltimore over this and may file a discrimination suit...

I’m visiting Cambridge and I went into the Goodwill here. They had a nice selection. There were a few things that concerned me. Why did they have earrings marked at $4.99 but charging $5.99.

She was literally bouncing and shaking trying to not pee on herself. My purchase was $30.05 and they asked me if I wanted to round up to help the cause. Adding .95 is more than rounding up. Also, I felt like if their attitude was better, we both would have gladly added money or rounded up. It’s always nice to treat each other with kindness. The Goodwill receives donations . . . How can you charge more than the...

Great selection of higher end name brand items Coach. MK, Calvin Klein, Kate Spade all at great prices..however low end Walmart clothing is WAY o er priced. Discount and Box store houseware items are ridiculously priced...but again name brand items from Crate and Barrel and Bed Bath and Beyond, Ralph Lauren etc are priced quite reasonably. I I ky shop high end items here and shop the other thrift shops for everyday items and house wares which I always find at a bargain at those stores. Such a shame that Goodwill's pricing is so inconsistent because it's a nice store and it's well organized with a great selection. A MUST If youre looking to score $8-12 shoes from Calvin Klein,Coach ,Kate Spade it Jimmy Choo or $5-10 wallets and $20-25 purses from Coach, MK and Kate Spade !!...
