Comment: Ive donated several times before, but today was my first time actually shopping there. I brought my toddler with me too. The store had a good selection of items.Im not too familiar with the pricing, but I did get this for $5.99 sealed and brand new! There was another frame I had saved, but my toddler accidentally slipped it through the shopping cart and it cracked. I approached a worker thinking Id need to pay, but this gentleman was super sweet and said thats ok and he hoped my toddler was okay.Overall great customer service!!!PS: I also got a cute dress there. If you are looking for some nice dresses, Goodwill is a good place to start 🙂

Comment: I came in and bought a bunch of stuff because i had signed up earlier in the day for their shopping program which gives you a 20% off coupon to use. So i got up to the counter to pay and it said coupon expired. Ummm....i just signed up at 315 and it was 510 the same day. So it expired in an hour ? The woman at the counter says, its expired. Im like its an hour old. Hows that possible? She got the manager and he fixed it but she was a bit rude from the start which i didnt appreciate. The manager here is awesome!

Comment: Fantastic staff, a very good selection, and a donation center that runs like a dream. This is definitely one of the best Goodwills Ive been to for both shopping and donating. The only issue is that the parking lot is pretty small and is prone to congestion. But really, you can park across the street and walk if it looks really busy.

I guess you cant be lucky all time!Goodwill associates were efficient at keepingthe waiting line short enough so people were coming in and out without a fuss and not taking their sweet time once inside knowing that others are waiting for their turn too!

Comment: This is one of those places that Im torn writing a review about because I kind of want to keep it my own secret lol This place has always been my favorite thrift store. Its always super clean, always well organized; but it also looks like they recently renovated and it looks even better!! I couldnt believe how much Halloween stuff they had on hand! I went in for 1 specific item, I left with a giant bag full. My only qualm is their prices are a little expensive for being used. Some things I saw were nearly the same price you could find new. :/
