This boutique is part of a 3 store collective at "Goodwill at the Trail." While the retail store and the bookstore are excellent, this store--their "high end boutique" falls flat. Firstly, I am not sure what rhetoric they are using to determine what is high-end but I found the majority of what they stocked laughable. Many of the brands sold there include mall brands like Victoria's Secret and Kohl's brands. There were very few higher end items and those items were outrageously priced. Example- A Brahmin bag was priced at nearly $100, which is funny considering you can get them on sale brand new for around that price as they are only a few hundred dollars to begin with. The store is EXTREMELY CROWDED AND SMALL. It is in no way shape or form stroller or wheelchair friendly. There are way too many round racks in such a small space that even if there are 5-10 people inside it is way too many to comfortably browse. A little more thought should have gone into the size and layout of this store, and they sorely need education on what high-end actually means. Same brands being sold at the retail store next...

There’s an irony in stating that the money earned goes back into mission programs when you just took the nice things off the shelf to make the prices out of reach for people that need to shop at Goodwill out...
Read moreWhat a shame this place is. They resell things you may want to look for in the regular store part, but now they do not even put it on the floor so they can upsell the items for department store prices. I believe social media has a lot to do with this tactic. Resellers making it look like it’s a side hustle money hack. Don’t...
