(Understatement- what don't they offer here?) Very psyched i can now get my Hokas (amazing athletic shoe) locally & get my Oreck vac repaired here too. And they do custom printing too for shirts... Offer a lot of different things that are of interest here from a humble-looking outside part of the building. Side note: I love that I can ship things from here too- they sell shipping boxes, filler, & offer UPS too.

When other stores sold out of my sister's favorite perfume, Goody's still had it on Valentine's and Christmas,because people don't realise they carry brand name perfumes! They have a small plus size section and lingere too.

I received an email announcing a new Goodwill store opening in mid February. I went to a…read moreneighboring town on Monday, 03-11-24 and visited the store for the first time. I thought the inside size was good. Depending on what you're looking for, it may be hit or miss. I love books & was in love at first sight, especially seeing all the John Grisham books and the Norton Anthology of African American Literature book I was able to get for a paperback price. There were unique items available, like the piano and a maraca. They had a decent selection of bedding items like memory foam mattress toppers & pillows. Shoes weren't organized by size, but I managed to find a pair for someone else. I didn't have time to really look through the clothes, but I managed to find a black dress I needed. The guy who checked me out told me that they had a lot of inventory that hadn't been stocked yet and encouraged me to return. When I have time, that's exactly what I'm going to do. Don't forget to bring your own shopping bag(s). I didn't know to bring mine and just used the cart to carry my things to the car. (Yelp isn't allowing me to add my pictures to this review since I'm the first to add this business; will try to add them later if permitted to.)

This new store in Albemarle is very clean and organized! The employees are very friendly,…read morepersonable and very hard working!!! They have a great mix of clothing, housewares, electronics, and furniture. They work on a rotation and do not keep a bunch of unsellable merchandise that has been on the racks for a lengthy time, like in other thrift stores. You can expect to pay 4.99 for shirts, 6.99 for shoes. Furniture is sometimes priced too high, but they do 50% mark downs after 3 days of being on the floor.

I will never return to this store again. The staff is extremely rude. I walked in and non of the…read moreIndian staff acknowledged me walking into the store nor asked if they could assist me. About 2 minutes later, 2 Caucasian ladies walked in and everyone broke there neck to assist them. I work for CMS as a nurse and went there because we get a nice discount. I will tell everyone that I know not to purchase anything from that store due to their blatant discrimination. I would rather pay full price at another store and get treated with respect.

I can't account for the negative reviews - ours was a terrific experience and we will definitely return as well as recommend this shop. The store itself is small, but absolutely stuffed with a large variety of stock from several different lines. We didn't ask about returns, but there are two dressing rooms, one very large. Scrubs are easy to try on! As an FYI, Elite also carries a nice variety of chef's jackets as well as scrubs.
