Yes, I actually preferred going to goodwill as you can find real denim but the last time I went 3 pair for $20. One pair actually split on me at work! They weren’t even tight. But all of the other ones have lasted forever. The new ones are stretchy/skinny jeans and after a couple of washes, they are stretched out! I was then told to get a smaller size. I bought a 4, they were very snug and washed them carefully in gentle cycle, cold and low heat dry. I didn’t even dry them completely. After sitting down once, I stood up and they turned into balloon pants! Does anyone else know why this happens and how to keep that from happening?

Yes! Goodwill pricing is RIDICULOUS. Like almost every business I go into these days, Goodwill asks if I want to round up the amount to the next dollar for their charity. No. No, I do not. I give to my own charitable causes. Goodwill should NOT ask customers to give to their causes. Especially when every single thing they sell was GIVEN to them. Any money they make above and beyond basic operating costs should go to their charity. It blows my mind.

A lot of clothing that goes into goodwill doesn’t even get sorted and is just tossed in a dumpster or sent to the dealers who bale it up and send it overseas where they auction the bales to poverty stricken communities who sort through the ones they win and then sell the stuff that is in decent shape to make a living. What isn’t kept is sent to massive landfills. Also, anything that is donated to goodwill that is exceptionally nice is pulled and sent to goodwill’s equivalent of EBay. It’s a racket. My bother worked as the director of maintenance for over a decade. He made over $70k a year. The people working the retail level make pennies compared to what the higher ups do. I stopped shopping there a long time ago due to the prices. I only shop and donate to our locally owned, truly non profit stores now and I make sure to research where the money and merchandise goes.

Goodwill has priced themselves out of the thrift store market. I would rather just go buy new at the same price as buying used at Goodwill. I own a thrift/antique store and I look at an item and say “would I pay $3 for that?” If my answer is no, then the price is lower. It’s no good having a store full of items if you never sell anything……you can’t make any money with that plan.

@katbird5775 22 күн бұрын

Your mention of your store jogged a sweet memory for me. For many years there was a very nice little antique/vintage store near me. It was packed to the rafters with such lovely old stuff! The prices were a bit steep on some things-as it should be because they were nice, old things in great shape. But the ladies that ran it always gave me and my son a good "deal" on at least one item every time we went. I know they did the same for other customers, too. Sadly, Covid did them in, but I always wondered how they had been there for so many years, with their sweet, generous policy of cutting prices like that. Hopefully, they were rewarded in other ways, because they made shopping there such a joy. 🌹

I said no that was just priced at $20.00. As the manager was there and said no that's a purple ticket item. She didn't cause a fuss but stormed out. She knew she was caught. Another time I had priced 3 figurines separately. Later the woman at the register came back to me and said, " I don't think this looks right."

@@verapena9465 they need to pay them to run such a big organization. Saver's is a thrift store that's for profit, unlike Goodwill non profit. Saver's pays it's CEO over 10 million, other's in the millions as well. Goodwill pays little over half a million. They're doing the same job. Big discount. You think they should get paid, what exactly?

The goodwill in my area the prices are not bad as far as clothing, tops are $4.99 pajamas $1.99 jackets $4.99 Senior day is Tuesday and you save 25% I always shop on a Tuesday I have gotten great clothing with designer names for $3 and change.last year I lost 24 lbs, and I donated all my old clothing ( to another thrift shop where they help woman starting over again) and shopped goodwill and this particular thrift shop, I bought a whole summer wardrobe including accessories for a total of $80 and I love what I bought…. I find more at the thrift stores then regular stores these days

@phoenafox Ай бұрын

Ours is also fairly reasonable, although in recent years thrifting has become really popular right along with reselling those items elsewhere for an even higher markup, and their prices have increased accordingly. Once that started trending more and more items are harder to find there. It's quite unfortunate for those on a tight budget hoping to save money.

We use coasters to keep our furniture from being damaged by wet glasses. It never occurred to me that people wouldn't care enough for their stuff not to use them, but maybe it is because we pass our furniture down so it is sentimental. I guess to each his own! 😊

@vaderladyl Ай бұрын

Of course, even if you don't pass them along, it is common decency trying to keep them looking nice by not damaging them. I make sure everyone in my home uses one.

I literally stop shopping because their prices are so ridiculous. I can get stuff way cheaper at Salvation Army. They eliminated the 599 price range at Goodwill. I was completely shocked by that. It couldn’t cost almost as much to buy some thing used as it does new thrift stores are becoming a thing of the past.

I have the white swirl pattern & the ivy swirl pattern Corelle. It is next to impossible to find it at thrift stores, but just keep looking. The swirl with the green edge goes with the ivy pattern. You should have picked it up. One dinner plate sells for $23 on Etsy. I have found them for as cheap as $1 thrifting.

Our Goodwill has an amazing program with the local Credit Union. You can set up a savings plan and goal, and Goodwill will match every dollar you save with two or three dollaes. I have a friend that used the program to make a down payment on a house. A friend of mine volunteered at one thrift store and social security wouldn't label her as disabled. Goodwill let her come work for them for a month. They were able to help her document her memory issues (since she had worked so long at the one, she had that down to habit, it was messing her up.) Goodwill helped her with Social Security. Another friend works at Goodwill and is able to stay independent. I try to only go on what our local Goodwill does. Ours is awesome.

The only remaining "goodwill" at that place are the corporate salaries!! No more purchasing or donating to them! The ones who truly do the good work is The Salvation Army.

I used to shop at Goodwill a LOT and also donated a lot. Between their ethics and their prices, I avoid them now. I shop and donate to other thrift stores in my area such as ARC (benefits developmentally delayed) and the Cancer Society thrift store. Most GW stores in my area are also in very sketchy parts of town which I avoid as well.

Sometimes items don't get priced because of human error. Other times, the price tags fall off, especially the baskets since there is usually not a smooth surface to place a price tag.
