You get what you pay for in experience and product. I see so many people complaining about this place but I absolutely love it! You arent always going to find a bargain, some days you find nothing at all, but the days you do find something it makes it all worth it. There are way too many people utilizing this goodwill but thats because it is one of the easier to access outlet locations and people do tend to push and shove a bit but if you dont then you dont usually get anything worth anything because the bins get emptied really fast of all the good stuff. It is like a game to a lot of people who go here and sometimes a livelihood, so you have to take the bad with the good. I had one old lady throw a lamp at me once because she was in such a hurry to get to something and ive been verbally abused by an older man who didnt like children being in there, the one time, but other than that, in the years that ive been going here and other good will places ive never had a problem and actually theres a bit of a commerardary that goes on with regulars in there, and sometimes it can actually be quite a fun experience.

yeah okay

Dont be fooled by the "cheap prices", the experience is horrible. I live on a fixed income, so I would like to be able to have a fair shot at purchasing said items, because isnt that the point? These items are intended to help low-income people. Whenever I go, I am shoved by women who greedily grab handfuls of clothing as they shove you out of your waiting place. Ive seen an elderly womans foot get stepped on in this past week by these animals. How can they allow these people to act this way? A person trying to find discounts shouldnt have to feel harassed in the process. Staff is great, but the people who go here continuously push and shove and act barbaric so its only a matter of time until a fight ensues.

Pros: • items are sold in bulk by the pound • items are rotated several times a hour • you can get a lot of bang for your buck Cons: • extremely disorganized • finding anything is a luck of the draw • customers shop in an almost furious and competitive manner • staff tends to be very strict and disconnected from the customer. It is important to understand that this is not a retail location. It is a clearinghouse for items not sold in regular stores. Items are generally sold in bulk.

I always hear a friend of mine talking about the great things she finds there. I decided to go in the morning and try my luck. The shoppers there are the MOST RUDE people I have ever encountered! They have no idea of what personal space is and act like a bunch of line backers trying to block your way. The staff is just going through the motions, you can tell that they would rather be anywhere else. I had high hopes of this place and was greatly dissapointed :(

Ive gone there several times with kids. Ive bought furniture there and the kids found some books and interesting items. The people who work there were very pleasant and helpful. You do have to dig to find what your looking for but that is the whole amusement of being at a goodwill. Everything is in bins because its not one of the retail stores. Take the good with the bad like everything else. Its like a dysfunctional beehive. Lol

I personally think this particular Goodwill is fun if you dont mind digging for your treasure. Different then most of them as very little is on shelves and racks. Ive found a lot of great clothing for good prices. They go by weight for pricing instead of each individual piece being labeled with a price. However, if you dont like a lot of people or digging through bins I wouldnt recommend going to this one.

No vale la pena. Dime como puede dejar personas de empujar otros? Is not worth it for me, the people here will push you to get a shirt & nobody stops em

Every single time Ive gone to this goodwill I manage I to find merchandise that would have cost me tons more in the regular retail stores. what I find to be the best thing about this store is that you pay buy the pound not the ticket price.

I frequent the Goodwill Outlets and have been to all in the tri-state area. This is BY FAR the best! SO MANY great clothes and staff is friendly. Just do your research before you go to see what the bins are all about!
