A larger Goodwill than most, has a bigger selection as a result including new clothes and new shoes along with the new housewares and seasonal items they put on the end caps in smaller stores. I have been here once and it was at the beginning of the year where I was trying to find postcards. Found a stash of them along with greeting cards. The parking is weird. It's sloped and diagonal on one side. read more

I was shopping in Goodwill and needed the restroom. They would not allow me to use it as a paying customer. I have donated many times at the register and am now repulsed at how they treat paying customers. read more

This used to be my favorite goodwill for clothing and shoes. However, I was there last weekend and after finding a few awesome items, I needed to use the restroom. I was told the restroom is now closed to customers and there are no exceptions.. not even for elderly folks, people with disabilities, pregnant women or small children. Yes, I asked what they would say if anyone in those populations needs to use the restroom and the answer was still NO because she "doesn't make the rules". I need to use the restroom frequently and I specifically will not shop anywhere that doesn't have a restroom. I haven't been to this location in a few months after previously shopping here weekly. I'm sad to say I won't be able to shop here anymore. It should be illegal to not allow restroom use when someone has an urgent need. I'd shop here and buy a lot more if I can use the damn restroom! Ridiculous. Very disappointed. read more

Great place to help people and u feel great!!! I have dropped off many items and toys and books. V easy to find!!!

WAY too expensive at a store where every single item is donated to them. The owner is worth billions. Disgraceful.

I have been to this goodwill on multiple occasions just to shop around. But my recent visits have been quite interesting. It all starts with the harassment of the employees, where they were not only taking pictures of me but also talking about my past medical issues (it was someone I knew from highscool). me and my boyfriend had both complained to the manager. Because not only were tey doing that but also posting about it on social media. The managers proceeded not to do anything. I had been there last week with my friend, where the manager had proceeded to accuse us to taking pictures when all we were doing was trying on cloths, they also forcefully made us show them our phones. Its a shame because all the other experiences i had been there it was great, but honestly I wouldn't recommend coming here, if you would like to go get harassed by their workers. read more

I've shopped at this Goodwill store for many years, and found wonderful treasures. The last two times I went to shop however I had to turn around and leave due to no parking available. For those who are unaware, the City of Lynnwood has purchased the property that the Goodwill store is currently leasing, their lease ends in 2030. The City plans to install a new City park once they destroy the current building. The adjacent property next to the Goodwill which is currently under construction was purchased by American Capital Group (ACG). They are building a large building with ground level retail spaces and apartments. The proposal from ACG indicates that they will provide access to 30 additional parking spaces once construction has impacted the availability of Goodwill parking spaces . To date ACG has not provided the additional parking spaces which has greatly impacted the stores ability to operate as they cannot provide sufficient parking for their customers. I understand that these buildings are aging and the recent light rail installation has created an opportunity and need to better support the community with necessary housing and green space. I am disappointed however that the City and ACG have not supported the non-profit business during this transition. Goodwill brings many jobs and community support to the City of Lynnwood. Do your part City of Lynnwood and ACG, keep your promises. read more

Excellent service!!! Love the service. They are very professional team of employees to support your donations.

if i could give lower i would, but this place is not friendly as they tell you they are things are over priced that you know is cheaper some place else, they sell broken or chip items homeless comes in and steals and walk out workers do not do anything. read more

After looking into several thrift shops, I tried goodwill. Was surprised to find most Women's clothing prices were twice the amount of any other store. Found used kitchen items that were priced same as new ones online. Most of womens pants were priced from $12.00 to $19.00. May as well go to value village or buy new. Very disappointed. Went next door to Bella's voice and found excellent prices on everything and all proceeds go to animal facilities and food banks for animal food. I couldn't find one item in goodwill that I couldn't buy cheaper and even new at any other thrift shop. Will take my business elsewhere. read more

Went to donate some stuff yesterday, April 30th, and the older man working was very rude and anything but welcoming. Goodwill gets stuff for FREE from their surrounding community. People take time out of their day to donate their stuff, and Goodwill makes money. They should be saying thank you and show just a little appreciation... Furthermore, there is really something off about the older man and his demeanor. The way he looked and creepily smiled at the woman ahead of me when they turned their backs. Maybe Goodwill is hiring some past offenders to fill some sort of quota?? Keep your eye on him when he's around... read more

The guy collecting donations wouldn't help me unload because I wasn't within the cones. I even brought it out and asked if he can help me. He was overweight and had sleeveless shirt on. He was the definition of a jerk. Just walked off. Tried calling but number doesn't work. Wouldn't recommend. read more

I shop goodwill literally every week. The tacky manager with blue hair has acted horrible towards me. Acting like I steal. I have never stolen anything. It's so horrible. I called the store, cant get through. Sent a letter no response. It's just very bad. I drive out od my way to not be treated so bad. Shame on goodwill for allowing a bully to treat customers so bad! read more

Lynnwood Goodwill has always been pretty good but has been getting a better selection of stuff in the last year or so. And in the last month or so it has been really good with shelves. Straightened and clean and nice displays set up. I like seeing so many items hung on the walls and everything so well taken care of. And the staff have all been very helpful and friendly. Thank you for a pleasant shopping experience! read more

Went in for a return and Alexander helped me and was honestly the worse customer service I have ever had was rude and honestly don't know why he was hired read more

I rarely leave negative reviews but this takes the cake. I was at Goodwill Lynnwood on Aug 18 and bought 4 chairs at $39.99 each. I was hoping to get 2 more so I can have 6. So I was pleasantly surprise when I went back today and saw 3 of them. However, it was priced at $49.99. I asked to speak to a supervisor if I am able to purchase them at $39.99 since that's the price I paid 2 days ago. The supervisor whose name I found out is Dawn, told me that it is not possible that it was priced at $39.99. She told me she priced it herself and it is at $49.99. Unfortunately, I left my receipt at home and was not able to show her my purchase. And then she started raising her voice and told me she checked them online and it was for $250 a set. (I checked and it's actually $150 including tax from Amazon for a 2 chairs). She then left after reiterating her point that it was $49.99 each. By now, people were watching and it made me so embarrassed. In the end I decided to get it because it was already there and I just wanted to get it over and done with. I have not come across a supervisor with an attitude like Dawn ever in Goodwill. She's definitely not customer oriented and it made me feel like I was trying to be cheap. Raising your voice at a customer does not help either. If you or your staff cannot do your job properly, please don't put the blame and make the customer look bad like you made me feel. I will not be back at this Goodwill again. read more

Thank goodness for thrift stores. I am always looking to shed any excess clutter around my house, and even after all this time you still have to beat it into my head that things like that should go to Goodwill--they give people jobs, and the prices help people shop when they're trying to make ends meet. There's also a Value Village over on 99, and it's a bit bigger and busier. As of today, they were so overwhelmed with post-Christmas donations at VV that I had to bring some old fireplace tools to Goodwill. GW doesn't have as visible a location, but their staff is nice and the parking lot's easy to get in and out of. Feels good to know things are moving on down the line, getting some use, putting a fair price worth of cash into employing people. read more

A recent visit to Goodwill in Lynnwood, the lady at the main door was greeting everyone white but not me. When I walked out, she ignored me the 2nd time. I don't know if this is just a really sensitive and difficult time for all of us... but if your going to show partiality to people who are Asian or whatnot your in the wrong territory. And this is the last time I will ever go here. I get my money's worth at like Nordstrom rack thanks. read more

This Goodwill is a little out of the way, but on the plus side, there are two other thrift stores located across the parking lot: Finding Treasures and Bella's Voice. So it's a three-for-one stop if you make it up here! I was surprised at how big this store was inside. It has a good selection of clothes and shoes, especially women's, and a large kitchen/housewares department, although the furniture area is kind of small and ratty-looking. This location feels older and somewhat run-down, but it's pretty clean and well-organized overall. Like all Seattle Goodwills, there are holiday sales and colored tag discounts, and prices are reasonable. I didn't see much of the Target clearance-salvage inventory here on my last visit, like some other stores -- Shoreline is probably better for that if you're up north. If you stop in, don't forget to swing by Finding Treasures and Bella's Voice while you're there! read more

Thrift stores are all pretty hit or miss. Some are more organized than others, some have nicer employees than others. It's all a given, so I factor that into my review. This location has been a hit or miss for me, buy when it's been a hit, I've scored some pretty awesome deals and seen some awesome deals. A few weeks ago, I saw a $200+ Baby Jogger City Mini stroller -- new in box -- for $99. It had even been on the floor a few days at least. Today, I got a new infant car seat and new diaper pail. At retail, these two things alone would cost $300+. I got it for $80. This location has quite a large selection of furniture and clothes. The toys are also quite plentiful. The aisles are a bit cramped, but I'm guessing it's because it's the most centrally located Goodwill, so everyone flocks here. The Edmonds one is kind of out of the way and Everett is a ways north. In addition, it's a gold mine of thrift stores. There is one in the same lot and one across the street -- both, I believe, are non-profits. Overall, I've found employees to be friendly and helpful. Today, I was told I'd need to move my car around to the donation side to pick up the carseat. However, when I brought my ticket to the cashier, he grabbed the carseat and walked it out to my car. Made it so easy -- a godsend when you have a toddler and baby in utero. Tip: I got there at 9 AM and front lot was full. Try to get there a little earlier. Don't park on the west side. Lots of shady people hanging out. Better to park on the street. read more

Came to explore the area and came across a Goodwill. It was a little gem of a find, because they offered a great shopping experience and some great items! The store is large and clean when you walk in. They had a large assortment of inventory and it was organized and arranged like little store displays. Something about the organized mass of items was satisfying and made shopping more fun. I scored a sweater in great condition, some home decor items and a beautiful mirror. read more

Prices too high now on many items. Researching prices online from similar examples then pricing their freely donated items by those examples does not accurately suggest an accurate "sold for" price point for those particular items. It would be great to know what programs these additional profits going to and at what percent of the profits on the tracked data? It there a place to find this online? The researching practice is on items based on "sold for" pricing. Many used items pricing never sell at the initial listing price as in used cars. read more

Fun selection of stuff to look at. Most things are reasonably priced. All the staff were nice and helpful. Only complaint is that the fitting room situation is not efficient. read more

I love shopping at this thrift store for much of my work clothes. Their prices are reasonable. The cashiers are so nice and helpful. They offer easy access to public restrooms without having to ask for a key to exert our bodily functions. This is one of my favorite thrift stores. It's nice to be able to re-use and re-cycle to help Mother Earth at affordable Goodwill prices. I love this store. I will definitely be back. read more

Lynnwood Goodwill - Front of the store - Community Service/Non-Profit Near Me - Lynnwood, Washington

I used to be a obsessed with Goodwill back in my Thrifting-fetus days. They used to have 50% off of certain color tags but now it's just 30% off. LAME-SAUCE. It is organized & well-kept. They have mirrors here & there & fitting rooms too. The prices are the reason why I scarcely go here as sometimes it's better to just go to the mall & pay a little more for something that is new. Just sayin' I go here to score cute one-off mugs :) read more

All overpriced. Thrift stores are getting greedy. Y'all get your stuff for free. Don't charge ebay prices. It'll never sell and it'll just go to the bins and sell for 1.50 a lb anyway read more

I was trying to drop off bags of clothes, the guy in the back said it's almost 3pm get out. Okay what a waste of time trying to donate and that was the 2nd goodwill I went to. read more

I'm a big second hand store junkie. I'm just classy like that. I draw the line somewhere but for many items I love a good deal and like reusing something that had a previous life. This Goodwill is ok. It's not the cleanest nor the most organized Goodwill but it's decent. The donation people always have a big smile on their face. This was the place to be on a Saturday night! Every aisle was crowded with all types of people. Good people watching here. Typically I think Goodwill's prices are a bit high for used items but sometimes you can find good stuff at a decent price. There was a roasting pan that looked good but for $24 at Goodwill? No thanks. Even though it is $40-50 new that seems like a lot for a used kitchen item. Also $5 for a SBUX plastic tumbler that's $10 new. Just seems a bit inflated. I know the money goes to a good cause though. Long story short- this is an a-okay Goodwill. I prefer the one on 15th in Shoreline or on 8th in Ballard but this one does the job. read more

Line is so long and they have to close when it gets too long. Is there not enough staff? I'm not sure why the other drop off in Lynnwood on 164th is closed?!? read more

Great bargain hunting, easy donating and mostly reasonable prices. I have some of the best luck at this location finding all kinds of things. I'd say that the 'upper end' stuff isn't a great deal nor is it usually well stocked but the rest of the store has some great stuff otherwise. Kids clothes, shoes, housewares, women's clothing and knick knacks (I've gotten some gorgeous stuff at the jewelry counter) - Thursday- Sunday 1/2 price tickets with 1.29 for anything left with that same color ticket on Mondays. read more

Yep, been to them all...this one is the one that we found sterling silver candle holders for 2.99. they would be worth at least $200 now with silver bring so pricey! read more

I have donated a lot to this particular store over the years. They wouldn't return two items purchased for the kids that didn't fit for back to school 9 days ago- not even for store credit. They are eager to get free inventory but offer a poor customer experience. Willing to lose a customer over $10. Never again. read more

This is probably my favorite Goodwill. I know where everything is, it's laid out in an organized manner, it's clean, and it's good sized. The clothing selection here is better than most other Goodwill locations that I have visited. They have racks and racks of clothing and I almost always find something to buy. They have tons of holiday stuff, whatever the season may be. So if you need to stock up on ceramic snowmen statues in July, you can certainly do that here! They have a good selection of books and movies, as well as dishware. The employees have always been friendly, which can often be a rare find at thrift stores. Everyone seems to be in generally good spirits at this place, which I appreciate. Some of the nicest employees are found at the donation dropoff outside. Once I dropped my camera case on the ground while getting out of my car to donate some items. I realized it and turned the car around and they had it waiting for me when I returned. How awesome is that? read more

Horrible experience. The greeter was rude when I walked in (I am hard of hearing) and demanded I wear a mask (I know this because she was shouting) I tried to explain that because of my disability I am exempt from the mandate. She then proceeded to yell that I need to get out because my money was no good there without a mask. I was heading in to buy some items for our local deaf charity and I was actually planning on spending around $500. I get things are crazy now but there is legit no reason to be rude. I will never return. read more

What could be better than a store full of used clothing that HAVEN'T been washed since it was dropped off at Goodwill. Let's hash out all the benefits of buying clothing that other people had worn for months, if not years: The sweat. Body odor. Farts. Orgasm residue. Ripe armpits. Pungent feet. Rotten crotches. Pubes. Menstrual excretions. Sharting. Vomit. Food. Beer. Cigarette smoke. Let us not forget that old rhyme: "No matter how you jiggle and dance- the last drop always falls in your pants". That's right: URINE. read more

PRICES: I find a mixed bag of prices here. The clothing can be $3-$8 for a good ladies shirt and $5-$10 for pants. Jackets and coats also run in the $5-$10 area, with the occasional more expensive coat thrown in for $20. Shoes and belts are more decently priced than say, Value Village, at $3-$10 for shoes and $5ish for belts. Don't bother looking at men's dress clothes. Dress shirts are scarce and ties are very overpriced. They also have a lot of non-clothing items which can be found for decent prices. House wares and furniture are two shining points for this thrift store. %75 of the time I've gone, there has been nice, high-quality furniture items available. Sure, there's your usual trailer rejects with broken legs and stains, but there's always a few really nice pieces. SALES & SPECIALS: I don't know if they run any sort of blanket %50 off sale on a regular basis, but on Tuesdays they have a Manager's Special. This is a deal of the store's choosing and is often very good. The last time I went, all furniture was %50 off. I was there in the afternoon and there were still good furniture selections available despite this wonderful deal. I'd recommend going early, but you won't be left out in the cold if you can't make it when the store opens. SELECTION: The selection varies. Sometimes I don't find a lot of women's clothing to suit my tastes, but that could vary from person to person. Like I mentioned before, furniture and house wares are a major strong point. Toys are a mixed bag... about %75 crap and junk with some real finds available. DRESSING ROOMS: You do need to have someone open a dressing room for you, and this is my only big issue with this thrift store. I've spent a long time in the past trying to find someone to help me in this area. Sometimes an employee is nearby, and sometimes you have to ask at the register (all the way across the store). I prefer to be able to let myself into the dressing rooms and avoid long waits and incompetent staff. For the least amount of trouble, choose all your clothing selections first and go to the dressing rooms last, so you don't find yourself waiting numerous times. read more

There are decent clothing at a relatively cheep price. When i went to checkout and finally bought my product on the way home i saw they scammed me of a few dollars! make sure to check your receipts. read more

This Goodwill has always been well-kept and clean. There is at least one employee who has been working there for the last 4 years since I've been visiting - happy, loyal, and proud. They've recently rearranged their items and added a Fashion Focus section for name-brand women's fashions. I can always score at this Goodwill. The attendants and the donation area are kind as well. read more

Yup, definitely a fan of this place. How can I not be, I just found a flawless Ann Taylor coat for $15 and a brand new Calvin Klein sweater for $6.99! They have 50% off sales every day, based on the color on the price tag, and they systematically rotate through the colors on a weekly basis. The women's clothing at this location are in pretty good condition and a good percentage of them are name brands. There's a ton of selection. Anything that doesn't meet their standards probably gets shipped off to the Goodwill outlet in Seattle. I actually had to force myself to put stuff back because of the ridiculous volume of goodies I found today, I'd say that's a good thing. This really does beat any "for-profit" thrift store, Goodwill gets their inventory via donations from retail stores and individuals, so there's no markup necessary, and all proceeds go toward their job training programs. This store is large, clean and well organized, come prepared to hunt! read more

Thrift shops are either awesome or total dumps. This one is awesome. I have gotten so many great deals at this location. I recently found a brand new dustbuster that had never been used and in the box for under $20! AWESOME. I also got my son an almost new leapster explorer that he loves. I recently found a leappad 2 tablet, brand new shape for $25! Those things still retail for almost $100. He's going to be very happy when it comes Christmas time. Best part, he won't even know or care that it was used. I haven't had too much luck with clothes here but you can find some good ones if you search pretty deep. They get Target stuff that doesn't see donated to them which is pretty awesome seeing as I love Target. Books are a steal, household stuff is awesome too. I have found a lot of vintage owls to add to my collection. Staff is always friendly and I love the fact that Goodwill helps people get back on their feet again. read more
