When I lived in Lancaster City this Goodwill location was on my regular thrift rotation. Over the…read moreyears I've gotten many scores here. They used to have a nice jewelry selection at the counter (which is sadly no longer there). However since I moved to the suburbs a decade ago I rarely get to this location, but when I'm in the area like to stop in. I popped in earlier this week after a long hiatus. I'm on a mission to find white skinny jeans and a decent bathing suit cover up. I've been searching for weeks. Unfortunately I didn't find what I was seeking but still enjoyed cruising the isles. Some things I've noticed from that visit: Although clothing appears to be separated by sizes (s/m/l/xl) they're really not. I'm not talking a few pieces out of place I'm talking like every piece is a different size. I've found kid sizes in with adult ladies. Smalls in the large section and visa versa. Ignore the organization and look thru everything piece by piece for best results. Aside from organization the sorting process isn't the best. While the majority of the items were in great shape I found several with obvious tears or stains that should have never made it to the sales floor. Worse yet they were very obviously and not in places that would be overlooked, so check all your buttons, under the arms for tears, and make sure zippers work because returns are not accepted. Linens and children's selections are rather skimpy - compared to other Goodwill's in the area. This location also had jeans thrown in with curtains which is clearly an oversight on their end. Ladies wear was plentiful with the best selection of inventory being ladies skirts, bathing suits (an entire isle!) and shirts. They don't have a designated shoe section, shoes are on top of the clothing racks so make sure you look thru the entire store. They had an abundance of Halloween décor and such out even though it's only July. The housewares are thrown together and sorted by color, but plentiful although you may need to dig a little. The dressing rooms are on both sides of the store and very spacious compared to others. 15 minute parking spots out front, and overall this store wasn't as crowded as others. Inventory is overflowing and new racks to be placed on the proper racks can't because of lack of space so those racks sit out, unorganized. Be sure to check them out as they're the most recent pieces to hit the sales floor. It does make for cramped isles however. Not perfect, but worth checking out if you're in the area anyway.

I dropped them off on a Saturday and had heard nothing by the following Sunday so I reached out via Facebook messenger and left my number. I was called back by Farrell, the owner, and given a quote, a time estimate and an option to pay via PayPal (they don't do credit cards). Once that was all squared away, Clarke's went to work on my shoe. When it was finished Farrell called me to let me know I could pick it up and explained a little about what he did to the shoe.

Matthew 25 Thrift Shop

3.3

(7 reviews)

I am going to go ahead and give this thrift shop 5 stars simply because whenever I am in town, if I…read morecan't get in there I know I'm missing something. This is a thrift shop but does not carry furniture or large items. Most of the store is women's clothing in all sizes from Petite to Plus. There are small children's and men's clothing areas. There are also children's toys, books, purses, jewelry, shoes and some accessories. There are also several small areas with linens, collectibles, small appliances and kitchen wares. One negative is a Keurig I purchased with a tag that it works, but it didn't. It turned on but that was it. I imagine they checked it came on and assumed someone would not donate a non working item. But I paid $15 and consider it a donation to their charitable contributions. OK so the clothes are pretty much exclusively in very good condition or new. They do mark up designer brands and new items with tags. I paid $25 for a Michael Kors dress with tags, and $8 for a new child's outfit. They have easily accessed dressing rooms and a speedy check out process. They offer a frequent buyer card with $10 off when filled. The store is crowded but very well organized. Clothes are hung by type, size and color. So if I am looking for a white long sleeved shirt size small, they are all hung in one place. One positive/negative is their amazing store window displays. They decorate the windows seasonally with the best of what is donated. It is incredibly enticing to see all the wonderful items that might be available inside. The catch is that NOTHING in the window is available for purchase until after the season is over. The Christmas windows items will be available January 9th at 10 am with the line forming early. So if something you have been wanting appears in that window display you will need to be on hand at a very specific date and time, like an estate sale or auction. Because I don't even live in the area, I pretty much don't even look at the windows since I can't buy anything there. I see from other reviews the store windows cause lots of angst for shoppers and for staff apparently. But since I know the deal I just accept it. One review from 2019 talks about a children's play area. I have been shopping here 10 years at least, and there is no children's play area. There is an area of toys for sale. When I was in last week 3 small children were tearing up the toys in there and screaming into a Frozen karaoke machine. When they put it down for a minute I scooped it up and bought it for my granddaughter. Yes, it is an alcove but every toy, book and game is priced so obviously for sale. Who in the world leaves a 2 and 4 year old unsupervised in a thrift shop toy sales area? So consider that if you read it below and wondered about it.

I've been trying to find the time in my hectic schedule to pay this shop a visit which is no easy…read moretask as they keep strange hours and close daily at 3pm. Some unexpected time off from work allowed me the opportunity yesterday, but my visit was disappointing. I honestly was expecting much more from this store especially since other Mennonite run thrift stores in the area are superb. First off let's talk about that parking lot. It's a congested, tight mess. Once you get in IF you find a spot good luck getting out. Don't even attempt it if you're not good with backing up or in a huge vehicle. There is street parking but it's also hard to secure and metered. Secondly I was surprised by the lack of current styles and the high prices on adult clothing. Being that Lititz is one of the coolest small towns in America one would think the donations would be too. Most of the ladies clothes looked like it was donated from nursing homes. Quality was ok but the styles were just plain old. Kids clothing was better but very limited. Overall I felt all of their departments were limited except for books. Toys and kids clothing was priced well for thrift but I felt everything else was high. Than there's the ladies at the counter...bless their hearts because they're probably volunteers but....they don't listen for crap. A long winded customer in front of me was engaged in conversation with the TWO cashiers. I was only half listening but heard her mention no less than three times that her grandchildren were twins. When she whipped out a picture both of them replied "are they twins"?????? Were you listening?!? So when it's my turn to cash out I handed the one an item I didn't want and asked if I could give it to her. She acknowledged that I didn't want it, only to ring me up! Both woman were probably only a decade older than me so you can't blame old age! I did buy a blender which I thought was a decent deal. It had a note that stated that it worked but anyone that buys second hand appliances would want to try for themselves. It's not uncommon for something to "work" but have motor issues (thus the smell) so I asked if I could plug it in somewhere to see. Cashier #1 was like but it works and acted like I asked her for her firstborn child. A second employee had the same reaction. No one was accusing anyone of lying I just asked, politely at that, if I could see for myself. Their reactions, especially surrounded by other customers was embarrassing and unnecessary. Given the lack of things I would want to buy, the size of the store, the prices and style of adult clothing, their inconvenient hours, the hot mess of a parking lot, and overall lack of professionalism in their employees this is one thrift I'm gonna pass.

The dishes and glassware shined like it had all been freshly washed. I dare you to find a spec of dust in this place. The employees or volunteers that work here take pride in their store and sorting process and it shows. Everything was in remarkable shape and fairly priced. Many items were only .50! Two things that prevented me giving them a 5 star review - the ladies clothing felt matronly and not current, although organized very well and all of decent quality. Some of it was new with tags and had more than one like it was donated by a local retailer or manufacturer. Secondly with Halloween only a few weeks away it was surprising (especially given their abundance of Christmas decor items) that there were no Halloween displays or merchandise other than a small selection of costumes (literally less than a round rack worth). I don't know if it's a religious thing since this is a Christian based organization but do feel like they should have offered more. Wish they were closer but it looks like I'll have to make trips to Ephrata more often.
