Goodwill Superstore — Local services in Hanford

EXPENSIVE!! The rent must be high at this new location. Item pricing is inconsistent or not visible on various products. Asking $8.99 for a Walmart branded Faded Glory blouse that sells for $5.99 is just crazy. Items from Target priced much higher than what I paid for them on clearance at Target. Shoes from Marshall's with original clearance pricing marked much lower than what Goodwill wants. Dollar Tree merchandise priced well above the original price is laughable. Yes, the store is clean and organized but, shop with caution!

I'm behind a business that pays employees that have special needs by selling selling products. This style of employer has my support. But why does this place sit on small overpriced merchandise for so long? Don't let slow moving items take up valuable salesfloor real estate to make 50 extra cents on a marked up Dollar Tree product. Mark it down lower, show the savings to the customer and turn that inventory over. Focus on inventory turns and high volume selling for more profit. Build excitement around what savings customers will discover to keep them returning for more.

Hey, I'm not a reseller; just a lady trying to buy clothes for work and some home decor.

I suggest clearly marked Sale Events for different departments or tag colors. Maybe even discounts for Law Enforcement.

I appreciate having a large Goodwill in Hanford. There are surely areas of opportunity to foster long term success of this...

Update:

Quite a few employees evening, all eager to help.

I would suggest they take a minute to test electronic/electrical items before put on the shelves.

Also, price tags were missing once again. Changed my rating to 3 stars instead of 2. Apparently, it depends on the shift whether you have helpful staff, or gabby ones.

It's clean, but only because it's new. Employees spent more time jabbering than working. No one at register.

10 minutes to close, with $200 worth of stuff, employ informs us, cash only. I don't carry that kind of cash with me.

Had someone actually been at the register, they could of let us know instead of spending an hour in the store.

Many items, although against GW policy, were broken. 1/3 of the items were not priced. Instead of stickers, they are writing on the items with...

Store is huge. Very clean and organized. I wasn't to impressed with some of thier prices. We go to Goodwill to find deals that you can't find in name brand stores. Some of thier prices were unbelievable. I found a nice Cooking Skillet there. I understand it was a Viking Skillet with a Lifetime warranty. Very nice. But I couldn't afford $100.00 for it. Goodwill has always been very well priced with their items. Now it seems their hiking up prices to make money for themselves. As usual they say the money is used to help others. I hear that so much. All the items in the store were donated for people like me that can't afford an OUTRAGIOUS price. Widow of a Vet. And it seems Goodwill must have gone Corporate...
