Gave them another chance today. Huge mistake. Had an item in the sale color of the day, on Monday meant 1 dollar. Oh no. It's normal price they claim. 15 dollars for a fish tank that's dirty and been there a month. Offered half price last week and they said oh no the price is the price. What has happened to this place? It's embarrassing. Sad. Just buy new everyone it's the same price. Ross actually sells new under armor shorts cheaper than goodwill sells heavily used ones now.
Let's not forget goodwill gets government assistance as well. Don't feed me excuses on we have to fund your programs. The government does that
I left in a rage today. I enjoy thrifting, but this is absurd anymore I'll just go to Walmart for similar prices. Something needs to change. They only way is to stop going. Goodwill has a ludicrous quota system which leads to overpricing their items to new prices. All donated items. This is not consignment and it's unacceptable. Absolutely avoid.

How much did THEY pay for it? Oh yeah, $0) Does she really think I'm in Goodwill changing tags?!?!? The guy comes up front looking as confused as I was and he was like yea, I priced it. Give it to the lady. I feel like this was racial profiling and will not take my black a$$ in there again! Goodwill of...
Read moreIt’s pretty safe to say the Goodwill experience is pretty much the same wherever you go. You know what to expect when you go in. It is fun to go hunting for treasures but we have definitely noticed they have hiked up their prices quite a bit which kind of irks me considering the stuff is all donated. On the other hand if they’re able to move it then I guess there’s a market for it and as we all know prices are up everywhere these days. There are numerous items that I have passed on because they were way overpriced. Either way they have a good crew of people working there and the store is...
