Prices are ridiculous. Goodwill is getting a retail prices for used and beat up stuff. Donate your stuff to homeless shelters goes to a much better cause.

Barely any inventory. Went looking for warmer clothing for my family. The men’s section was barely full, the kids section was extremely limited. The women’s section was decent but hardly any warmer clothing. My son was disappointed in the toy isle. Store is very clean and neatly organized, but not by size only color. Lots of nicer furniture and the women’s shoe section was nice.

I hope the owner see this review. Nothing but clothes what use to be filled to the brim with good finds is not here anymore. This store was a million dollar plus a year store in profits and it has tanked big time. I can see why Hardly any other items other than clothes what a way to run a business into ruins. Goodwill has gone down hill will never shop at this store again. Sad you ruined this store.
