  This place is huge. They can have some good prices but they also price things more than their original sticker price - which is incredibly insulting to see the GW price MORE than the OG price. But like I said, lots of good prices if you’re willing to spend the time going through all the racks. Gotten a fair amount of clothing pieces that were under $5.

  This is one of the best goodwills around, they definitely have better prices thats for sure. A lot of goodwills and value villages over price their donations! Which is why i take my donations to St Vincent de Paul.

  It's actually really funny because everyone is saying the same thing and every response from the Goodwill is "We are looking into this and trying to make the experience better for our shoppers" when in reality, you aren't doing anything to fix any of this. The bathrooms have been shut down for about a year... They've even blocked them with larger furniture pieces so no one can see them, not even letting children use them. The prices are getting way worse. The cashier has argued with me on multiple occasions...one item from the dollar tree literally said $1.25 on the package and she tried to price it at $5.99 when I reminded her IT LITERALLY had the $1.25 all she said was "So you don't want it?" And another time there was a set of dishes that had a tag of $9.99 and she said it wasn't right and was actually $35. For a set of used dishes. I asked for a manager who didn't give them to me at the $9.99 that they were, so asking to speak to a manager gets you nowhere..stop suggesting it. Honestly Goodwill if I were you and wanted to keep your customers I would consider a change in management and policies. You put door codes on the bathroom for a reason. Just don't give them to anyone. Or have a bathroom attendant, but your store is too big for people to shop in without having a bathroom. If your prices weren't so high maybe more people would shop and you would actually make more money for the supposed "job training" that I have literally never seen at any of your stores and I have been to most of them in Washington state. When I see people in Facebook groups in other state talk about getting something at the Goodwill for ACTUAL thrift store prices it makes me embarrassed for the prices in your store.

  Always had a great experience donating. The staff are super friendly. I don't think people should complain about prices in general at a thrift store. Some of the goods are like new and it's a lot of work for staff to sort and organize, clean all the goods and maintain a store with heavy traffic. Seems like it would be harder than working at a "regular" retail store, honestly.. and it's a great service and with some thrift stores like Goodwill the money goes to a good cause, helping people. It's a great cause and to complain about pricing is so petty in my opinion. It's a donation versus throwing money into the big box stores where the mark up goes to corporate.
