I was sad Big Lots closed, but Goodwill is an excellent choice for people like me looking for a bargain!

I've shopped here three times, and every time I've found at least one item that I thought was good…read morequality, useful, and well priced. Yesterday I found a merino wool/silk pashmina shawl for $4.95. It was marked "Vintage," even though these shawls are still in production. But the marking suggested that whoever priced it recognized that it was something special. There are lots of employees working hard to stock and tidy the store. They are polite and helpful when asked a question. It is a large store, with mostly clothing, shoes, purses, and linens, plus a smaller selection of appliances and other hard goods. There is no furniture. I like their colored-tag system, where each item gets a colored tag and merchandise with the oldest tag color is discounted. They also have a "Best" area with designer labels. A lot of the items I looked at were priced around $20, although some were higher--for example, I saw a Johnny Was jacket for $69. My main criticism is the amount of stained clothing that is priced quite high. I think this is something management should take a look at. Most people don't want to bargain at the register, so those stained, overpriced items just sit there. The result is that the clothing racks are very full, which makes it harder to sort through them and see what is actually worth buying. For people who are complaining about thrift-store prices, I do understand why prices have gone up. Thrifting has become much more popular, we're dealing with inflation, and minimum wage is now $16.90 an hour. I don't object to paying a fair price for something genuinely desirable. But I do agree that it is disappointing to find high prices on damaged merchandise, and it makes it harder to find things you would actually consider buying. And part of the fun of thrifting, at least for those of us who do it as a pastime, is finding a bargain. Current pricing strategies at many thrift stores are making that harder and less fun. I think thrift stores need to have some true bargains for people to discover. That's what keeps the hunt interesting. I volunteered at another thrift store, the Bargain Box, for 10 years, so I have some experience with this. Our general policy was that an item in perfect but used condition was priced at around one-third of the new price. Dated clothing was priced lower. Stained items or things with missing parts were sent to another thrift store, sold to a recycler, or discarded if they were hard goods. That approach kept the inventory moving at a reasonable rate. For vintage or designer items, we would look them up on online resale sites such as Etsy, eBay, ThredUp, or Poshmark, find several comparable prices, and then price the item below the lowest price we found. Often we priced it a little lower than that because a brick-and-mortar thrift store with limited foot traffic doesn't have the same customer base as an online reseller. I'll definitely be back to the Arc Foundation store. I've already found some good things there, and I'm hoping to find more.

I saw a Cuisinart ice cream maker here and contemplated getting it but I knew I had an attachment for my Kitchen Aid stand mixer for ice cream making at home so I left it on the shelf. Well, I made ice cream the next day and my Kithchen Aid bowl cracked. I decided to go back here the next day and see if the ice cream maker was still there. It was! $14.99 and makes great ice cream! They check the electronics before putting it on the floor but they still plugged it in for me at the cash register so that I could see it works. There are no refunds but they will do exchanges within 7 days for equal or lesser price if you keep the Goodwill price tag on.

Your things will end up thrown in giant boxes and left outside in the parking lot, ready for vagrants to come by to scavenge.

The ground is covered in stuff that the vagrants just dug out of the boxes and threw all over.

They often keep larger furniture pieces near the front entrance (accessed through the main door), and there's a high-end designer rack worth checking. A few things to know before you go: don't bring large bags or backpacks as you'll be asked to check them in a locker outside, bring cash to avoid the credit card fee, keep an eye on the savings board, and remember it's no tag, no sale, so check items before checkout. It can get busy during peak hours, and parking is street-only on a busy road, so timing matters. Donations: Drop-offs are at the gate on the right side of the store. They also offer donation pickup. Hours: 10 am-6 pm Closed: Sunday & Monday Solid thrift if you're looking for decor, furniture, and the occasional great find without the boutique markup.
