There are so many treasures to be found here…read more Being in the Sarasota area where it's known to be a little wealthier, I knew there'd be good thrifting. This store was so organized and pretty clean, and had a ton of stuff. They have a lot of nice vintage clothing if you're willing to search. A little disappointing was the graphic tee selection which was almost nonexistent, literally half a rack, but other than that there was so much. If you need shoes, they have 2 sections full, for men and women. There's of course so many rows of women's clothing. But there's also some really nice home stuff. I got an almost brand new Calphon pan for like $7. What I also like that they do here is you can have a loyalty phone number. I haven't heard of many Goodwills doing this but maybe I've just been to the wrong ones. But once you sign up, they have a color tag each week that's an extra 50% off and you can use this at any Goodwill in the Sarasota area. Shout out to the worker who checked us out and made sure we got this discount- I wish I remembered his name but he was so kind and helpful. For the people saying this is expensive I'm a little confused. Most all of the clothes were $10 or less that I could see, I got a pair of nice heels for under $10.. And the deals you can find here are still so much better than actual retail price.

I am writing a negative review on the leadership of Goodwill donation center sarasota pkwy…read morelocation. I worked there as an attendant, but after only two days, I quit! The trainer they call she is a keyholder, kind of shiftlead position, her name is Ambra Stephen. She is lazy, petty and very mean. The place is covered with dust everywhere which triggered my sore throat, runny nose. When another keyholder came and suggested Ambra should do a deep cleaning at the place, she also told me to keep using a rag to clean the dust everywhere. Ambra took it as an offense, when seeing me cleaning., she gave me the firty look, and then she forced me to operate a dolly with five totes which I was not able to do, it was my second day. When I told her I was told by another trainer I could transport 4 totes with a dolly, this Ambra Stephen got nasty and said words to insult me. I quit right on the spot. I never recommend anyone to work at that facility, a very filthy, nasty place with a nasty so called shift lead to run it. If there is option of zero, I chould give zero star rating for that place.
