Finally made it to Chanos!…read more Lots of stuff to look through! Hard part was it's 50/50 in items being labeled for pricing. Which is a little odd then when you make it to checkout/makes me personally not want to grab non-labeled items. Another customer told me you can kind of bargain/haggle the pricing but if that isn't something you're comfortable doing... Overall the price I was given for my total was my max I would have spent had she gone higher I would have asked her to individually note the prices so I could put one thing back. I personally would have priced it probably $5 less especially due to one of the items being a short basket that had some imperfections and I couldn't see it being valued for more than $3 based on average of other places I'd been. But it was an experience

I share similar sentiments with those who have mentioned that Chano's Warehouse feels overcrowded…read moreand picked over, likely due to its recent popularity on social media. I miss the days when parking wasn't a challenge, as the lot is now often packed. The space itself isn't the cleanest--pretty dusty, and some items, like the records, are heavily scratched and have an unpleasant smell. I understand that thrifting and vintage shopping often come with some wear and tear, especially in a space of this size, but compared to my favorite resale shops, it doesn't quite measure up. Additionally, the selection doesn't seem to rotate much, and I rarely find more than one or two worthwhile items. If there were a wider, more consistently refreshed inventory, I wouldn't mind the cleanliness issues as much--I love digging through things to find hidden gems. That said, the staff is very kind and friendly, and the prices are pretty reasonable, which is definitely a plus. Just a heads-up--these pictures are from my first visit, and after returning this past Saturday, I noticed that the stock hasn't changed much and feels more picked over compared to my initial trips.

I purchased a stereo subwoofer from this store. I plugged it in at the store and it powered on,…read morebut once I brought it home and connected it properly, it produced almost no output and the back panel became dangerously hot. The unit was so overheated I couldn't even touch it -- a clear fire hazard. I called the store to return this defective and unsafe item, and the request was denied due to "policy." That is unacceptable. A nonprofit that pays its top eight executives nearly $4,000,000 according to public filings should not be refusing returns on hazardous merchandise. I will no longer shop at this Goodwill location. I will take my business to the Habitat for Humanity ReStore next door, where items are tested, clearly labeled, and the store policy actually stands behind what they sell. Better selection, better integrity, and far better customer treatment than what I experienced here.

I was going through clothing, placing it on an end hook to figure out what I was going to buy…read more THAT WAS NOT WHERE I WAS LEAVING IT! I wasn't finished. A young, newer employee took great pleasure embrassing me as she told me "more that once" where the unwanted clothes went. I was not finished. I told her that and she just kept on about her directive repeating herself rather loudly stated it was a reminder. Seems elderly people are really not wanted in that store. Perhaps she assumed, incorrectly, again, that I can't hear either. I said I don't need a reminder. Earlier in the shopping day I over heard the same girl say out loud she was watching a customer. What kind of customer service is this? Watching a customer...for what? And why talk so loudly? A superior nor rude approach to their job is unnecessary. Perhaps they took their cue from the manager. The main manager. The large white women. Sidney and Mike are the best. What an embrassing display of this inexperienced girl behaving this way and continued on and on blowing off her mouth. There is a bin full of clothes next to the rack. Clothes are on the rack and the bin was rather full. So where exactly do the unwanted clothes go? Rack or bin? Also, as we went through the clothing the sizes were all mixed up and no signage on the rods on the West nor North walls denoting sizes, plus the racks are too full it's difficult to shop. Instead of watching customers and berating them outloud in the store for many to hear, for something the customer was NOT doing or had made a mistake she could have been kind and proffesional and been discret while giving her message. Then quietly resume spending her time putting clothes in the correct places. You can always quietly and tactfully approach anyone. No need to raise your voice from a distance. Alex is a better worker than her. She's going to cause problems in that store. Smh.

I've never been to this location before so I can't say whether this is abnormal or not, but on our…read morevisit the store seemed very dirty and all of the merchandise was disorganized and in pretty much disarray. The floors looked dirty and the wares were haphazardly piled on top of each other on the shelves. The prices also seemed high, but I'm not sure if they have some sort of discount based on tag color or something. There was a lady making a bunch of noise tossing sporting goods merchandise around as I thought she shopped, but later on I ran across her in another area of the store throwing plastic toys around and realized that she was an employee. Based on this one visit, I don't plan to come back.

This used to be a nice little treasure hunt but lately they have been turning over employees faster than ever. Today we went in and at 2pm we went to check out. There's 3 women's surrounding one cash register. The conversation varied from how their day went to unfinished tasks from the morning. One woman counting the till and the 2 others standing there. Then the lady counting the till told one of the other employee, "you're 5 cents short. Any reason why?" And so it went. Meanwhile I was waiting to check out along with another customer. I finally abandoned my cart and walked out. Such a shame. Why are we disciplining our staff in front of customers? Why is there any conversation at all? Why are there 3 employees and no one has a drawer to cash out customers? This is not a one off. This place has gone downhill. You need a mature manager.

THIS PLACE IS A CLUSTERF*CK!!!…read more This place has the distinction of being the only place meant for kids that's nestled in between a car parts store and a repair shop. My wife didn't believe I was taking her to a kids consignment shop. This is what happens when you buy a garage, turn it into a gym locker room and then throw about a million toys inside. Or at least that's the thought I had when I shuffled around this place. When I say shuffle, I mean it! This place is littered with toys and things all over the place, I spent more time shuffling sideways and stepping over things. I thought that this might of been a freak thing on the Friday I came in, so I returned on Saturday since my wife and I were in the area. It was just as messy early on Saturday than it was the day before. This place is barely organized! Some toys are grouped with other toys, but otherwise clothes are peppered anywhere and everywhere with no rhyme or reason. Scented candles, glade plugins, scented oil, spray air fresher, renuzit, patchouli incense, heck even some car air freshners from the parts store next door I don't care! Please take care of the smell inside the store! It smells like you guys grabbed twenty used sweat socks from the nearby gym, used them to cover the exhaust pipe of a 1977 Chevy Van and then piped that into the store. This is quite possibly the iciest parking lot I've encountered this winter. A little salt would help. I felt like I was in the Super Mario 3 ice level as I slid into the store, juggling the one year old in my arms. Expectant Moms, be wary. Drive by and don't stop!

I have gone to this event for nearly 20 years, both as a patron and volunteer.

Vendors from around the county are on hand serving up samples of soup.

My husband and I enjoy coming to this event…read more The 1st year, we picked our own bowls but years after, we decided to do the grab bag/mysterious bowls because we didn't want to wait in line. We come every year because it's fun to try all the different soups that restaurants bring. It has a been a good way to try something that places that we've never heard of (and a good way for restaurants to promote business). There are different kinds of bread there as well for people to eat. I've used it to get the left over soup on the bottom of the bowl that I couldn't get with a spoon This year, they had commemorative spoons that they sold for $10. We enjoy coming too because it's a good cause and why not support a cause that raises awareness about hunger. It's nice because you get 2 tickets with your purchase of a bowl. You can buy extra tickets for more soup if you are still hungry and want to try more soups So here's my suggestion: go. Get a bowl. Eat soup. Support a good cause
