I have been shopping here for years. It is sad to say that as a customer I have seen so many managers and employees come and go. Recently there has been a lot of change here at the Wadsworth location and with all of this change came along new ridiculously over priced items. I understand that GW is a business, but I do know that when I come to shop at GW that I am in search of a GOOD deal. Not a deal that I could get going to the original retail store, and that is what I am finding. Used clothes at too high of a price lately. It would be nice to have prices set at one consistent price and not all over the board. I actually laughed out loud last week when I saw some of these priced items. Its sad. Also, the fact that corporate took away the Blue card member point system is not understood. The frequent shoppers that support and keep GW going SHOULD be rewarded, and Im not talking about a here and there Tuesday sale thing that no one can get to last minute. No thanks. Overall, I have been becoming more and more disappointed with GW in the last few months. Prices are way too high on used items, and the blue card members should be given more incentives to want to come back..

A FAKE HERMES WALLET IN THE CASE FOR $1000 THAT IS SOME BAD KARMA. UNLESS YOUR HIGHLY EDUCATED AND HAVE PURCHASED HIGH END ITEMS YOUR ENTIRE LIFE YOU HAVE NO BUSINESS GETTING ON EBAY AND PLAYING THE PRICE IS RIGHT WITH A FREE DONATED ITEM AND CLAIMING ITS AUTHENTIC WHEN NONE OF YOU ARE QUALIFIED OR EDUCATED ENOUGH, IN HIGH- END COUTURE (IT MEANS HANDMADE OR CUSTOM IN FRENCH) … BE ASHAMED YOU GREEDY FRONT OF A CHARITY. THAT GOES FOR WATCHES AND 18K GOLD AND AND ALL THE OTHER ITEMS THAT ARE OF A WORLD NONE OF YOU HAVE BEEN A PART OF. YOU GET THE CRAP FOR FREE, AND THEN YOU HAVE LOW COST LABOR. FREE INVENTORY + VERY CHEAP AS WELL AS FREE LABOR (COMMUNITY SERVICE AKA DUI OR POSSESSION CRIMINALS) = EXTREMELY HIGH PROFITS. AND YOU HAVE THE COCKINESS TO BELIEVE YOU HAVE THE SKILL AND KNOWLEDGE TO PRICE A WALLET THAT YOUR MORE LIKELY TO BE STRUCK BY LIGHTNING TWICE THAN TO EVER FEAST YOUR NOT A GED BETWEEN THE WHOLE GAGGLE OF YOU, EYES ON. SHAME ON YOU GOODWILL, SHAME ON YOU. Totally

Not my favorite goodwill in the area at all. The selections are smaller and the prices higher. The worst thing about it is how the employees try to rush you out when closing. They close half of the fitting rooms at least a half hour before closing, and announcements made every ten minutes to Make Your Final Selections are bad enough, but this store actually turns off the lights everywhere except the registers ten minutes before they actually close. Meaning you cant browse anymore, and you have to stand in line and wait to check out for ten minutes. I wish employees know that they dont go home at close- thats when you stop letting people in. Your shift doesnt end when the store closes. Deal with it, and dont rush people out of your store.

Today, I stopped by three goodwill shops: lakewood, 161 W courtlane littleton, englewood. After comparison, I would top lakewood one of all the three. It seems to be filled far more stuff than the other two, so I have many choices and moments that I have to hesitate what to do, buy or not buy. The other two shops have far less stuff to choose. Next, the concern of quality. I really pick some brand new stuff at lakewood place at very low price, for example, a cuisinart ice cream maker. Maybe it is not general case and I was just lucky enough. who knows. I recommend strongly this place. these days I get used to going shopping at lakewood goodwill. have spent a lot of time over there. Induldged.

I bought some clothes at this store and when I took them out of the bag to wash them I saw some tiny bugs on them which I later found out were BEDBUGS! I contacted the manager and she told me that they cant control BB since everything was donated from God knows where. I noticed some bites on my babies back about 2 weeks after this incident so I took her to the dr and he confirmed they were BB bites...HE CALLED IN SOCIAL SERVICES AND THEY CAME TO MY HOUSE "TO INSPECT OUR LIVING CONDITIONS" I am a very clean person! DONT BUY HERE, After the expense of hiring an exterminator I could have bought new stuff and saved myself alot of humiliation.

I tried doing community service here and it was a horrible experience. The last day I was there the manager Gretchen would get upset if you grabbed a quick drink or even take a bathroom break. I was told I had to work outside in the 90 degree heat with no shade or sun protection while their own employees were inside. When I insisted it was too hot to stay outside, and that I wasnt about to risk heat exhaustion, they told me I was being disrespectful for calling them out on nearly inhumane work conditions and told me not to come back.

Mi tienda de segunda mano favorita, no solo encontrarás cosas de uso. Hay muchas cosas nuevas que aun conservan sus etiquetas. He visitado varias y en lo personal les puedo decir k la de la S. Wadsworth tiene mejores precios...

This Goodwill isnt even worth going to. They have broken furniture, furniture with stickers all over it, etc. and everything is marked at ridiculous prices. They set one price for all like items of clothing so you end up paying more than you would to buy some items new. For example: all womens short sleeved shirts are $4.99, even for ones you can buy elsewhere for less, brand new! Its also extremely unorganized and the selection is lacking anyways.

I had to do community service here. Half of their donations they receive go straight into the dumpster. Some bags are not even opened and are thrown into the trash. They only keep what they think is "good stuff". Then they mark the "good stuff" at a high price. This is a bad business model and extremely wasteful. There was a story on 9 wants to know a while back about this. Donate somewhere else. There is a Savers across the street at Jewel.

Got chewed out by one of the rude collection people for arriving at 9:45 instead of 10:00 to drop off a donation. In the past, donations were accepted starting at 9:00, and apparently there was a time change I was unaware of. Really poor customer service. Im sure there are other organizations that would politely accept my donation.

At checkout, no clearly defined lines to the 2 of 4 registers that were open, then one of them went down and the lady just stood staring at it waiting for it to reboot. Meanwhile, more people are joining the line and getting upset with people going to the other line that opened up. Then that one goes down.

My sister was so excited to find an extremely rare shot glass today. She paid for it with the other items she managed to find. The cashier neglected to wrap the glass in anything and then put it on the bottom of the bag. It SHATTERED. Shattered. No apology and still made my sister pay for it.
