I have a love / hate relationship with Goodwill in Auburn. Their selection is often great! However,…read moretheir prices have skyrocketed. Lower priced items here are often more expensive than to purchase new. They had some yarn that seemed marked up - I checked Walmart and it's less expensive new. I found the manager who handles pricing, explained that it's cheaper New from Walmart. His response? "Well this is Goodwill, not Walmart!". Indeed. A donations-driven nonprofit engaging in price gouging. Other outrageous pricing I've seen - beat up LLBean clothing being sold for twice the cost of similar apparel, damaged goods that they refuse to discount, etc. Soooo, maybe try an independent thrift store first. And please check prices on your phone! Or stick to the sale tag colors! Finally, consider donating elsewhere because while this place is mission driven, they're certainly making us customers pay more to increase already inflated upper management salaries - you can look that up.

was very pleased! looking for a large rolling duffel and got lucky and found a nice quality used…read morered rolling duffel for a reasonable $10. Especially when looking new and expecting to pay huge amount more! knowing people shop at Goodwill since they are pinching pennies, the store does carry new items often the Big Lots type deals on either new cheap (both quality and price) clothing (shoes boots), accessories (gloves socks) as well as household items like aluminum wrap and zip locks. Even though we could not find a decent pair of snow boots for my daughter, the Sorels we saw for $25 for overpriced for such interior damage to the boot, she appropriately said no. Anyway thrift store shopping is always hit and miss but since i got a good hit with the duffel, I am happy.

I went to this Salvation Army location on a whim with some friends on New Years Eve and I'm so…read morehappy I did! 50% off all clothing purchases that day! What a steal! Walked out with some fantastic additions to my wardrobe. Racks upon racks to peruse. Everything seemed to be organized by color and type (even the housewares section!). By size would have been ideal as well but I guess finding something that draws your eye is made that much more exciting when you find it is your size as well. I went with the intent of just browsing but left with several new pairs of workout leggings and a dress for that evening. The dress (pictured) cost only $4.50!!! What!! The staff were very helpful and they seemed to have plenty of hands on deck for the sale. People manning the changing area and working the registers kept the flow of patrons moving. The rows between the racks were a bit narrow but people were generally accommodating and made room for each other. With some time and patience, you can score some bargains here. Lots of brand names. Clothing seemed to be in decent shape.

First time visiting this particular Goodwill location and would classify it as one of the better…read moreones. A much larger space than the more local to me location in Westbrook. Has a way more open space feeling so even if it gets busy it won't feel as busy and crowded. I will also say the largest portion of this location definitely seemed to be the clothing. Some of the clothing did seem haphazardly placed in the wrong size section but I'll assume that was customers putting them back however they wanted. If you are a fan of thrifting and being on the hunt for that ultimate find/hidden gem this would be a spot I'd recommend. It may take some time and searching but prices all seemed reasonable. My wife and I did not find anything we needed or wanted but since it's goodwill you know they'll have an ever rotating stock so we will likely return. Definitely one of the better Maine Goodwill locations we have visited in recent memory.
