Even though I'm not from the area, I like to stop at different Goodwill's when I'm traveling. I…read morestopped at this particular Goodwill twice a month. It is very clean. They have a great selection of everything. The staff is very nice. Very helpful. Just in case you're wondering they do not have a public bathroom. Just wanted to throw that in there, they do not have a return policy. Once you buy it, it's yours and the only reason I bring this up is I was at the checkout I purchased a pair of shoes and immediately after paying, before walking out the store before walking away from the counter, I realized there was a hole in the bottom of the shoe the manager was standing beside the clerk and I said, "there's a hole in the shoe, can I just return them?" I didn't want my money back just a little gift card. I think $4.99. The answer was no, that was a surprise. I said, there's a hole in the shoe. He said, there's no returns I donated a pair of shoes that day and lost $4.99. I'm not upset about that. I just wanted to let you guys know there is a no returns policy. Make sure you check all your items before you purchase. Have a great day thrifting.

This is a very nice Goodwill. It was clean and the employees were very polite. I absolutely love…read morethe bin section, as everything is so cheap and you get to dig through looking for treasure! The book section was pretty good and the houseware's seemed much better arranged than other Goodwills I've seen in the area. I'm very happy that my friend brought me here. I will definitely return eventually.

EV Laundry has exactly what busy college students or families need when it comes to laundry…read moreservices: - They drop off a bag for you to put your dirty laundry. - They pick up the full bag weekly and drop it off two days later. - The closes are meticulously folded, grouped, and wrapped. - Dress clothes are hung up on hangers and kept separate. They use dye-free, hypoallergenic detergent, and they use a dryer ball instead of a dryer sheet, so no harmful chemicals there either. The service is fantastic all around, no hassle at all, couldn't be easier. I highly recommend it. Pro-tip: They have larger bags for marginally higher cost if you're a high-volume laundry factory like my home :)

A friend recommended EV when I asked for ideas on saving time. I thought that we really didn't have…read morean issue with laundry taking too much time but decided to give it a try. Not only do they take care of the laundry but they will pickup/drop-off dry cleaning as well. At first we were picking out things to send and keeping the rest for our "next load." Figured out we just needed to put everything in the bag. It comes back clean, folded or hung up for those things that need it. I am amazed at how much it frees us up - time wise and mentally! It is a great service! LOVE it!!

First : Thank you Carolina Meadows for hosting Chatham County Senior Table Tennis games…read more I only seen a small part of this facility, but what I did see was amazing. They have a good size area to work out with all the equipment. A large size room for activities ( we played the Table Tennis in that room ). As I was walking in, I seen tennis courts. The place was very expansive in itself. The staff was excellent, friendly, accommodating, helpful, and whatever nice word you can find for a person. Parking is excellent also. With the area near The Governor's Club, you have a great setting.

I can't speak as a resident here, but in taking the tour as a volunteer, the grounds are…read morebeautifully kept, the building seems to be well-maintained and cared for, and the nursing staff on the skilled nursing side were all very kind and smiling. The facility has a very elegant feel, as if you were staying at a nice hotel. Even the Alzheimer's section is maintained to have items that their residents would be able to relate to. The residents appear happy, and the volunteers and staff members seem to enjoy their time there!

So far disappointed in the recent changes at the local thrift shop. It used to be a place where you…read morecould rummage through lightly organized sections and discover items for art projects, the garden, or furnishing a home after a move. Finding a small project or a new piece of clothing always felt satisfying, and the store had a personality of its own. Now it feels like a cookie-cutter version of many other thrift stores. The selection is limited, the sense of discovery is gone, and the prices are surprisingly high for a thrift shop. Even the costume jewelry appears inexpensive in quality yet still overpriced. I'm sorry to make the comparison, but the earlier experience there was genuinely much better.

Community Worx, formerly PTA Thrift. The last few times…read moreI've been in, I have been literally disgusted with the condition of this store. What a filthy mess..I felt like I needed a shower. The worst section is where the DVDS and CDs and electronics are located. One big hot mess.. boxes with cds that are dirty, completely disorganized...wires all over the place...I don't know what that new slim guy does back there but it's horrible. All the sections look neglected but for the books..that is the one very nice area TENDED BY VOLUNTEERS so there's a problem here. Work ethic seems obsolete along with some of the very moody sales clerks.

I've had my child in this daycare for a year and I've really been impressed by the quality of care…read morehere. I did an intensive research process to discover this daycare -- visited 5 in this area and called every single one in Chapel Hill region. This was hands down the best one. Community: The daycare is a co-op model, which means that parents are asked to volunteer to help with small projects and that the profits they earn go back to help fund the education of their caretakers. I think this really makes a difference for feeling like you are paying and investing in a community, rather than a corporation. Lower ratios: most daycares go with what the state mandates - 1:5 for babies, 1:6 for 1-2 year olds, and 1:10 for 2-3 year olds. Coming from another state; this is just abysmal. They start at 1:3 and then do 1:6 for 2-3 year olds. Anyone who has been in a daycare room when all the kids are there knows that this should really be the max. Price: it's a bit more costly than other daycares in the area, but it's worth it in my opinion. They do accept vouchers so you can look into that if you need. Location: maybe from a lot of people, but southern village is a great place. The kids can go on field trips to the huge park or this weaver street. Outdoor play: They do a lot of it and are very diligent about bug spray and sunscreen. They have a wonderful play yard with plenty of room, shade, and toys. They do water play in the summer twice a week. Potty training: they are very supportive with potty training and will sit your child on the potty every 30 minutes if that's what's needed. Drop off/pick up: not sure the earliest time you can drop off - maybe 7 or 730? Latest pick up is 530. Discipline/style: they are warm and gentle, but also good at enforcing boundaries. I've seen them engaging in more gentle methods like making positive suggestions for alternatives rather than just saying no. The structured scheduled helps kids know that putting away toys, sitting down at meals, washing hands, and going potty every hour are non negotiables.

When we moved to the area from Washington, D.C. a year and a half-ago, my biggest concern was how…read moremy then-2-year-old daughter would transition to a new daycare setting. Thankfully, CHDCC went above and beyond to welcome my daughter to the school and to meet her needs (and mine!) during that first week. Throughout our time at CHDCC, my husband and I have been incredibly impressed by the quality of the teachers and staff. Our center in D.C. had frequent staff turn-over and it has been such a gift to watch our daughter grow and thrive with a consistent, experienced early childhood professional. This teacher magically potty-trained our daughter in the first two months at school and supported her social, emotional, and cognitive growth each day. We were lucky enough to loop with her from the 2 year-old to the 3 year-old room, making for another smooth transition this year. Everyone at the center is warm and welcoming and I am always blown away by the fact that every adult in the building knows my daughter by name and looks out for her well-being. I am a huge fan of the play-based learning that takes place at CHDCC and love how her teacher differentiates instruction to cater to both the abilities and the interests of each child. I would highly recommend CHDCC to other parents and plan to enroll our second child in the infant room this year.
