Goodwill

We didn’t have enough time to look as we were driving by and decided to pop in 15 minutes till closing. They were having their 50% off day after Christmas sale. I’ll visit again.

MJ, the customer service supervisor, is an unprofesional dude. Really, he is the wirst, that MJ. On top of looking like an obese Mexican Bilbo Baggins with protruding eyes, he is very rude to customers and should work really try to work on his personal hygiene-​stinky.

Not the cleanest. Bugs in the lady’s restroom… ick! We typically peruse the book section, but it’s lacking. Lots of old TVs and dirty furniture.

I love visiting this Goodwill on Saturday because it’s all half-​price! Even though it gets pretty busy, the lines move nicely.
The only complaint I have about this store is that the clothing selection is always terrible! Most Goodwills I visit, I can find a basket full of awesome clothes with no problem, but not here.
I do love the plates, glassware, etc. It’s so fun to rummage through!

What makes this Goodwill location unique? Location, location, location. As mentioned by Karen W, this Goodwill is next door to Bookman’s. Bookman’s is weird in that you never know what they will buy or reject. Many times I have taken my leftover Bookman’s items in here. I have also shopped here and noticed that the selection and quality of items are better than many other Goodwill stores – probably for the same reason – Bookman rejects that are just too good to pass on as a customer!
Parking is plentiful and close to the door. The store is clean and well organized. The staff is OK. There is a drive through drop off for donations on the north side of the building.

CSM & Production Associates of Goodwill of Arizona smokeing near Donation Doors, also couldn’t even take my daughter to the bathroom because they were NASTY… one word LAZY! It was so sad. if anybody wants 2 see the pic I caught look on my FB!

Your basic Goodwill. Items I’ve found here aren’t particularly remarkable, but their location makes it very easy to donate items that you’ve tried to sell and have been rejected by Bookman’s.

Went here while visiting some relatives that live in the area. I was immediately impressed by the cleanliness and organization of the store. Really enjoyed the assortment of books ranging from .$ 99 to $ 2.99. Also browsed the household appliances, furniture, and children’s clothing. Eventually settled on 10 brand name T-​shirts for $ 1.99 a piece. Yes the cashier did ask if I wanted to donate my change but seriously with what your saving can you blame them? I happily obliged. I would totally shop there again if I’m in the area.

Great location, because it’s next to Bookman’s.
Been years since I’ve been in there.
So anyway, came here on a Sunday and picked up a few things. The tchochkis were sparse, the shoes were ALL OVER the place, some of the staff I couldn’t tell the difference between them and actual customers, people (staff) were hanging around talking –loudly, racks were parked in the middle of aisles while the employees chatted. Seemed poorly managed as a whole.
Saw a customer in the very back going through packages but I didn’t even want to stick around to see what he was in search of.
Check out line, yes, just one at that time, was rather long and when another register did open I did not hesitate to jump on that action so I could get out of this place. Young man working the register was polite and efficient and he even honored the student discount for my college student son.
That was ALMOST a bargain had this Goodwill marked their items consistently. I had a suede jacket that I could have purchased at any other location for $ 7.99 –here they marked it to $ 24.00 for one jacket and $ 19.99 for another.
Ladies jackets at every other Goodwill location is $ 7.99…
And please Goodwill, you make huge profits already and pay your employees minimum wage, stop asking for me (or anyone else) to donate our spare change at the end of each transaction.
Many more thrift stores that actually benefit our community around town, including the Salvation Army, and they don’t ask for more.

I was very disappointed to find that the closest Goodwill to my daughter’s had closed – until I saw this location which is even closer to where I am staying in town. I stopped in there this evening and found it is an even larger store located where the Gold’s Gym used to be, a 30,000 sq. ft. area. They have a pretty big selection spread out, all the usual clothing and housewares plus tons of Halloween costumes, accessories and decorations since it’s September.
I found the sewing and notions section off on the left wall and bought some yarn for the preemie hats I knit, plus a pretty lavender baby blanket for my new granddaughter and a plastic container to keep craft supplies in. Today was senior day (lucky break) so I got 25% off my purchase, also there isis always one color tag 50% off and once or twice a month they have a 50% off everything day. They don’t have garage sale prices because it’s a store with rent, employees, electricity, phone and advertising, etc. to pay but the prices still beat what buying new costs. If I don’t want to pay the price I just don’t buy it.
The store looked as clean as can be expected for a thrift shop where customers are constantly messing things up and the two clerks I dealt with we’re pleasant and helpful. There is a huge private lot to park in.
I’ll be back soon with my daughter to look around again.
