Goodwill Thrift Stores

First time at this location. Located just north of Fred Meyers (same side of highway). Found a couple cool shirts and was happy. Same ol’ Goodwill, but prices were a little higher than normal.

This is the most organized Goodwill I’ve ever seen. All clothes are set out by size and color. I found a few awesome treasures! Clothes are primarily ‘trendy’ — Nordstrom, H&M, Gap — and prices are reasonable. Certain tag colors are 50% off depending on the day of the week. I would recommend checking this place out earlier in the day.

What a great place! The staff were so helpful and courteous, and the prices were appropriate. I would definitely come here again

It is rather ironic to me that they are making these charity shops so palatial and nicely designed only to fill them with second (sometimes third and fourth) hand wares. I suppose the job placement aspect of them is the draw, but folks, who do you think is paying for these new and expensive centres? If you look carefully at the prices for this «thrift shop», you will soon learn the secret of the revenue. It’s YOU!!!
Many of the «newer» Goodwill Stores have been known to be highly priced, but this location really stands out. Their book prices were borderline outrageous. Instead of individually pricing all of the books, try a flat pricing scheme like other Goodwill Stores do. I would dare say it makes it much easier and will sell more books in the final analysis. Many of the titles can be found much cheaper elsewhere.
Granted, a few deals are to be found around the store, but the overall pricing structure for this location was noticeably high. I love to support good charities, but I also don’t want to be pillaged. Common practice proves that people will spend more when the prices are lower and will return for more. For us, this location was a one trick pony.
Lots of collectables and high ticket items abound. I guess they figure the locals don’t know any better when it comes to fair prices for thrift items. Warrenton is priced noticeably lower. Maybe after the newness wears off, they will adjust their pricing, but that is their call. My lovely lass actually got better deals across the way at Fred Meyer on a few outfits and that is a sad commentary on Goodwill.
Great location, in a geographical area that can benefit from their services, nice layout, well lit, and as organized as can be with the demographic that tends to shop there and trash places. On that note, it appears that free, unsupervised daycare is offered to the Spanish speaking community, as evidenced by the three separate families that came in at different times allowing their children to race around the store scooting toy trucks around and crashing into people. For the little «nino» that knocked the elderly lady with the cane off balance… all I can say is I really didn’t see you… you shouldn’t run in a store, you will heal, and Karma can be a bitch. To the elderly lady…“You are once again welcome. Wink”.
