The staff are kind and helpful, the store is clean and organized. And that is credit to the hard working and grossly underpaid staff of the store. I have a real problem with how the crooked and rather "ill-willed" people of Corporate GW make their cashiers try to guilt EVERY one EVERY time into "rounding up to the next dollar" with EVERY purchase you make! By making their cashiers ask EVERY one to round up to the next dollar. Again, making them say that is for the training of disabled people to make them work ready. And yes of course the cashiers are ranked by how many people they can get to do it! How low and crappy is that? And add to that, now CROOKED corporate GW has even taken away the staffs piddly 25% discount!! So I think they need to be investigated on their very ILL-willed dishonest ways. But more so!! EVERY one MUST say NO to rounding up!! BECAUSE IT IS SO VERY WRONG TO ALL EXCEPT for the overpaid ILL Willed Fat Cats of corporate GW. Make the fat cats do their own dirty work!! Rather than the people that they/GW is supposed to be helping!! Say no and ask to speak to store manager, stating that you dont want this employ treated unfairly because you dont want to give to this unaccounted for bs any more! And that the employee be given reconition for their outstanding work performance and not docked due to my/your not wanting to be extorted for more money than the already over priced things I just bought w/o ANY accountability for it!

I dont like that the accept free items with mostly Volunteers working and then ask you to donate at the end of your purchase. You should study up on the big rich wealthy wigs that run this shady business and hide behind the word "nonprofit"!! They mark used stained old Kmart, Walmart, and target clothing for the retail price and sometimes more?? I had read in the paper that the previous day a 20 year old single poor mom got arrested and charges pressed against her for "stealing their free items" and when I went in to speak to the manager to pay for the poor mothers NEEDED items she had stolen they said I couldnt pay to get her out of trouble and they are pressing charges. I couldnt believe it! That they would scar a young mothers reputation for life? The fat hogs billion dollar industry isnt enough? They have to take down the poor too? I also do charity work and give poor single moms food, diapers, clothing and whatever they need if I can. Oddly I get LOTS of requests for furniture. Mainly beds so their children dont have to sleep on the floor. I called goodwill and finally got through to the district manager and they said NO WAY would they help. I even called the goodwill where they send stained beds or tables with chairs missing and they said NO WAY THEY WILL NOT HELP! I am saddened and appalled that the goodwill is so CORRUPT!!!

Went in today and was behind a lady doing a return. All I listened to was the cashier complain how sick she was and how much the register sucked etc ....I stood waiting to pay for an item almost five minutes before she finally called a back up cashier....Because complaining and conversation was more important. Also I love that they keep refilling merchandise, however customers should never have to dodge a maze of merchandise to get to look at things.... Needless to say I left my cart and my large furniture purchase aside and left.....Its always negative negative negative....Never smiles or hellos. Im done. Ill drive elsewhere if I feel the need to utilize goodwill

Donated some items to this Goodwill. CJ selectively picked through my donations and refused to take several items including a working mechanical push mover, a working camping flashlight and a comfy armchair. He laughed and said, "I cant sell that". I then went to the Goodwill in Hudson and they gratefully took everything in the truck. Wow! Not sure what N.R. Goodwills criteria is for donations but it doesnt really matter .....all my donations will now be going to the Hudson Goodwill. Save yourself the time, gas and hassle when you donate multiple items and go to Hudson!

Hello " Red Robin" . Yeah, it is actually Cj from goodwill. Just wanted to say everything but the flashlight we couldnt take. How could we possibly sell a lawnmower? Anyways. Thanks for the feedback that is untruthful. Here is a picture of you can donate and what you cannot. Thank you, Christian Lindquist. Have an amazing time at our store

This Goodwill has a really nice selection of used goods. It also has new clothes from Target so it is nice to have that option. Some of the prices are pretty high on occasion but for the most part I have been able to find something each time I go there.

Overpriced. Not enough sales to shop frequently. Would rather go to Two Fish Thrift right down the street, 100% of the money spent there goes to the local food shelf. And they have amazing staff and unbelievable prices. Say no to Goodwill.

Danyiel Mager

Disappointed all the way around. Prices were outrageous. Staff was rude. Store was messy and smelled like old shoes. There were kids running around throwing balls and toys.it was a madhouse I wont return to.

I stop at this location at least once a month to scan the merchandise and drop off donations. What I really like is the friendly staff and how organized everything is.

Mindy Moffat

Everything was neat and orderly. It is true that the clerks dont move out of your way when you are trying to shop. Great mixture of new and old alike.

I can always find something to buy especially for the kids. Its clean and organizes and items are in great condition.

Expensive, they get the stuff for free and charge as much as Walmart. The CEO makes a fortune.

Jason Nasman

Pretty unorganized but sometimes you can find a good deal. Smaller than Hudson and Stillwater.

They have really cute clothes and other cool things. The cashiers are kind too.

Very nice store. Seemed a step or two above the usual Goodwill stores!

Ruth Shope
