A decent and clean thrift store. It was laid out nicely and easily. I found some vintage pink glass tea cups. read more

Goodwill - North Miami/Aventura - Thrift Stores Near Me - Miami, Florida

if you're talking about the one on 79th St. that is the best Goodwill in the world. I highly recommend it. My whole wardrobe is from there. They never fail and they always have new items. read more

Goodwill was founded in 1902 by Boston Minister, Reverend Edgar J. Helms. He took donations from wealthy Bostonians and hired people who were poor and who could fix the items. The items were then given to the people who worked on them or were resold. Goodwill's philosophy is "a hand up, not a hand out". Today Goodwill has become a $5 billion nonprofit organization that provides job training, employment, and community programs for people who have disabilities that might prevent them from getting a job on their own. I stop for a Goodwill where you will never know what you can find. This Super Store Goodwill is located at the Shops at Skylake on Miami Gardens Drive in While still selling bargain thrift, the superstores have innovative and trendy displays like the heads and legs on the wall of this store. This store is large and attractively arranged. In the front they had a rack full of inexpensive Disney shirts. Like most of the Goodwill stores I visit, they are following the trend of offering brand new items along with thrift. Here they had a display in the checkout line of brand new school supplies. My favorite find was two naturalist prints of Florida native birds for $10 each. This Goodwill is worthy of a look see if you find yourself in North Miami. read more

After the cashier, brand new, said no to a $20 bill, my item was $10. I said what is going on here and the blonde lady who doesn't speak English only one lady in the building speaks English was being very condescending and then fake smiling and fake laughing to rub salt in the wound. Even the customers were like oh my God very condescending. read more

This is a pretty big Goodwill compared to the one thats one 119th. However not the friendliest staff which sucks and the wait to get checked out is even worse, but for the good deals i guess what more can you do but wait until someone checks you out. Its clean and organized which is a plus and easy to find items read more

I have no problem donating to thrift stores that do good things for the community. This store however, takes advantage of the community. I think the employees take serious liberties with pricing items. They forget that these are USED products. Sometimes not even second-hand, but third, fourth, and fifth. They price items (in many cases) as if they are new. I always thought Goodwill Stores were suppose to make things affordable to those who might not otherwise be able to afford certain things. I see many customers leave empty handed. This place makes me depressed every time I go in. There are many other thrift stores that better benefit the community. read more

Thanks to its close location, this is where I give away my unwanted items (clothes, little furniture) with ease and quickness. I also bought my black pants and a few shirts to wear to interviews and internships. It helped me with my budget when it came to that. It's really mostly clothes, but when you go into the back you will see a few knick knacks and furniture items. Not usual to see dressers or big furniture, but there were some pictures you can hang on the wall. Then, there is the book/movie/music section, however, most movies were in video cassettes. Books : .50 or .75 for soft covered; 1.00 or more for hard covered ones. It's a few stores next to Publix in the area, and right next to Chase Bank. read more

The donation area in the rear of the building was easy in - easy out. This store is also very well organized.

Goodwill is my Bloomingdale's. And this store is perfectly organized, well-sorted & color-coordinated, plus you feel like youre shopping for a good cause. Makes you proud to be an American (cue uplifting patriotic music) read more

This Goodwill is fabulous! The store is designed to give the customer a department store experience with luxe displays and visual details. The store has a certain scent that is sprayed that makes the store smell friendly and clean. You will notice this scent especially when you leave. The only thing I cannot figure out is the pricing system some clothes had the price in an easy to find place others did not seem to be priced. Prices are fair and many of shoes were 5 and 6 dollars. The place is colorful and organized. read more

Located in Skylake Plaza. It's a pretty big location and organized. Expect to pay about $15-$20 for Men's shoes if they even resemble a mall brand and are in fairly good shape. You may luck out and snag a brand they've never heard of and isn't marked up. Don't get me wrong, I have found some pretty trendy pieces in there but thought the store overall was overpriced. read more

This gw used to be good. You could get nice deals, fun items and not break your budget. I don't know who is doing the pricing here but they are nuts. I pick up 2 dresses today. One is marked 20, the other 8. Both marked in green. I get to the check out and I see that the color of the week is green. Yay me! The manager is working the register, tells me they are full price, not green. I politely point out that both are marked in green marker. She replies, they are priced in green, but they are not 50%off, it goes by the tag." Okay. I ask, so where is the tag? She replies "there is no tag". Wth? I walked out and will not be back. This is just one of many situations with the place. Stay away. There are much better thrifts around. read more

I stoped by today. They had a quart mason jar for $5; so I left. I had just bought a beautiful 72 oz weck jar for $2.50 from a store that sells new items and these items can be returned. I think people at this store need to get some perspective. read more

This Goodwill is always a disappointment. Yes, the store is well organized and clean but, that's it. Their selection leaves something to be desired. The one in Hialeah is much better. read more

Located in a busy shopping plaza around the way from all the amazing shopping in Aventura, I was expecting an overload of designer discards. Not so much. The store is clean and well organized, but there was a lot to be desired in the fashion department. Lots of junior and fast fashion brands and plastic shoes. A few pieces of well worn designer denim, but not enough to really make a difference. Store staff was pleasant, which is a plus, but this location isn't worth me making the drive down South like I would for some other thrift hot spots. read more

They don't let you return clothes, but they do let you return electronics. That's messed up!! I've never been to a Goidwill where i can't return clothes. Final sale or not! You just lost a customer for life! read more

Horrible customer service and dishonest business practices! The cashier raised prices on me at the register. My son chose a shirt on the boys clothing rack marked $2+. This shirt was not marked so my son asked for the price, and was told $2. When we got to the register, we were charged $6 for that shirt BY THE SAME WOMAN THAT TOLD HIM $2! I am well aware of Goodwill's policies, as I am a frequent thrift store shopper. The clothing is the price marked on the sign, unless a different price is on the article of clothing itself. For example, a shirt on a rack marked $2+ can cost more than $2 if the shirt is clearly marked with a price. I was also charged $5 for two skirts on $4 racks...not $4+ racks. The manager on duty told me she didn't know why the cashier charged me what she did, but said that I would need to come back to talk to a different manager instead of handling a refund or finding some resolution at that time. My issue is not the $4 I overspent. It is the fact that as a business, you do not mislead customers and refuse to fix problems. Transparency in pricing and integrity in all business practices are imperative in any retail setting. This location makes pricing incredibly unclear for the customer and the employees don't care. I will not go back. read more

This store is well organized. Super happy with my findings: A D&G pocket book for 15 bucks, Ed Hardy cap for $3 and a small pocket book by Guess for $4!! read more

I've never personally shopped at goodwill but this place to have a lot of business. Once a year I'll go thru the back door and donate clothes, toys, home decor, etc that I no longer use. From the outside you can see big windows and inside it looks super bright and organized. The prices also seem to be low. Very clean and organized place. read more

This place is organized!!!!! I loved the experience...overall layout of store is excitable and welcoming :-) displays were that of a department store. read more
