Goodwill Store & Donation Center — Attraction in Hamilton Township

DRESSING ROOMS CLOSED

This goodwill can be overwhelming, but I can always tell that the employees are trying really hard to keep things organized. Unfortunately you can’t control rude people who throw clothes on the ground, which is very common here and honestly upsetting to see the employees going around just picking them up as if they were cleaning up after a child.

I am not happy with goodwill prices. I have donated dollar tree items that ended up being priced for $3.99. This is goodwill cooperation itself that has raised the prices. But honestly I wouldn’t buy something unless it was the color of the day because $8.99 -$10.99 per items is outrageous. Goodwill STOP. These items are DONATED to you. You pay NOTHING. Goodwill has such a bad rep now. It’s all about money. Forget generosity. I have always gone to goodwills regularly but this is going to stop. My items will be donated elsewhere to actually help someone in need. Not rob them of their money. Goodwill, you should be ashamed.

Update (5 months later) I appreciate the time for your reply Goodwill, but that doesn’t change the fact that you charge ridiculous prices for used items. Target doesn’t sell broken, used items. If I can buy new items at a cheaper price than I can used goodwill items, then in my opinion, it’s a rip off. People go to goodwill when they can’t afford new items. Went back to see if anything had changed, I think the prices went...

You literally cannot make some things up. I've been to Goodwill donation centers in multiple states. When I pull up about 95% of the time they come out and ask if you need help.

I come to the location in Lawrenceville on Saturday, May 7th at about 3:10pm. I walk in and this brother is sitting behind a desk on his phone. I ask, "are you accepting donations today?" He responds "yup." "Okay.. I have a few bags of clothes in good condition in my trunk."

I get to my trunk right outside and dude is still sitting behind the counter on his phone. As I struggle with the three huge bags and drag them inside I say, "dag Bruh, I know you're busy on your phone but you could have given me a hand with these bags."

His exact response.. "nah man, it's raining out there and I only got on flip flops today. Not gon happen today, plus I'm trying to place this bet on my phone for the game tonight."

I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP.. the sad part is that people like him will only ever have jobs like this. Zero work ethic and highly unprofessional.

Not to mention I am a hiring manager for a bank in the area and am actively looking for tellers and bankers to fill one of my branches.

You never know who you will come in contact with. What a disastrous employee you have working there... I wouldn't hire him to clean...

Would the person that replied as I requested, please do so again. Sorry. I should proof check before posting...)

Prior to today, I don't recall the date,this occurred- approximately 2-3 wks ago.

Everyone, for the most part was friendly and helpful, except for the young man, who may have been a manager. I asked if I could have the 3 items I picked out, at half off, since I was told the colour of the tags just were just half off. I tried to explain my situation- which was humiliating - especially since he couldn't care less and didn't, assist me. if someone, a supervisor or manager, would post a note underneath my review that would kindly assist me, I would very much...
