“My daughter and I loved this place! Small and yet cute collection of clothes and other things, as well as clean and well kept. My daughter even found some jibbitz for her crocs! Chris was also so wonderful! Can’t wait to go back again!”
“Love to stop by this well organized store. Yes prices are a bit high for a thrift store but they carry only quality items and proceeds go to a good cause - children's hospital fund. The volunteers here are always amazing!”
“Absolutely my favorite shop! Nearly New has such a variety of lovely items, from jewelry and designer clothing, handbags, antiques and artwork to children's toys and books, seasonal coats, modern and vintage glassware, clothing for the whole family, holiday decorations and more.
Bargains and "fabulous finds" are waiting for you here.
This is where I buy my favorite scarves, earrings and antique glassware. -Plus, a few nice gifts! ( Happy to share my best resource with you.) There are plenty of goodies for everyone to buy, with the sales proceeds going to scholarships for local women. Come and enjoy a great shopping experience here!”
“I'm not much of a Sonny Angel-head myself, but Classic Loot has always been undeniably cute. I've bought countless gifts for my wife and cousins here, even some DBZ socks for the bros. Def stop by and see what's in stock.”

“Went on a Friday,books were on sale and clothes half off, super nice & helpful staff.
prices are super great!
Clean store.
Parking is in the back of the building.
There more home goods and books to choose from, clothes was a little on the low side.
Great store I'll keep visiting for sure. Antique store is nextdoor as well.”
“This review is for donation only. I came on a Monday afternoon at around 1:30pm. There was no wait to donate. To donate, you have to drive behind the building and there will be a large area to self sort (clothes, linens, books, etc). I donated baby furniture such as jumper and bouncer and worker sorted that for me. The guy was very pleasant. I decided to donate here as Hope Thrift (closer to me) doesn't accept baby furnitures. Goodwill doesn't accept car seats though which expires. There is a QR code to scan for receipt.”
“This is one of the goodwill locations that I enjoy stopping by the most. I like how they have a higher end area upstairs and really polite staff here. I wish they would turn on the air conditioner when ots hot, but aside from that good location.”

“donate to this homeless shelter if you want to help feed the homeless. this shelter does provide a decent meal in the mornings. 7am and evening 5pm everyday. For beds 3 pm.
SAD THING IS THAT MANY NON HOMELESS PEOPLE GO THERE TO TAKE FOOD LEAVING THE REAL HOMELESS WITH NO FOOD. I see people getting there in a nice car. Nice clothes not homeless at all. Some people live right in the block nice homes and cars . But they take the food from the real hungry people that live on the streets.”

“Had a wonderful experience, found things from around the world. Found some things to keep in my room to remember the places around the world that are in need of the Lord and his word. I pray that i continue to find more things and keep the vision of my ministry in the midst of my life and the future Lord willing.”

“Good selection of clothing and friendly workers. Prices are a little high, but I'm used to non-California prices so Im not sure if it's the norm. They have days and weeks with specific discounts for all clothing or specific categories/tags, so look out for those. Also suggest joining their mailing list beforehand to get a coupon for 25% 1 item. July 26-27 is every clothing item for $3 each, so I'd suggest going then. Was annoyed one of the fitting room doors was broken, but the one I used was clean and well-kept.
Prices I noticed/bought from:
Shirts: $6-$12
Shorts: $6-$8
Pants: $8-$12
Dresses: $9-$13
Purses/bags: $15-$25”

“Dealing with them stared badly but ended well. The problem was that I wanted to donate a new, unused, still in the box toilet. They said I’d have to bring it to the store and would then decide if they wanted it. Lugging a heavy toilet and facing the possibility of it being rejected was IMO, insane. I decided to take the gamble and brought it immediately. They looked at the box to make sure it was a low volume flush model (it was) and I was quickly able to donate it. They should have been able to tell me that they would have accepted the toilet if it met the flush requirements and wasn’t broken without me phoning and leaving messages (which were never answered) or having to find and talk with someone in their main offices.”
“Easy place to drop off your old clothes donations. Can park in the parking lot though it's hard to find a spot there. tip: Receipt is via the QR code now so no more old school paper receipts.”
“Came to donate some nice stuff but ended up in a full-on prison intake simulation. The guy at the back door barked orders like I was about to be processed—told me to stand behind a line with the authority of someone who either just got released, escaped, or moonlights as a CO. Not sure which, but honestly, 10/10 for realism. Great place to donate if you’re also prepping for jail.”
“I always always find nice brand name clothes, shoes and household items and accessories such as scarfs and purses. They have an excellent selection and the prices are good. They usually have colored tags sales where certain items are a percentage off.”
“Goodwill on Alum Rock Avenue is a mixed experience, with a decent selection of clothing, furniture, and household items, but organization can be inconsistent. Some shoppers find great deals on name-brand clothing, while others mention that pricing can be unpredictable. The store layout is spacious, though certain sections feel cluttered.
Customer service is friendly but sometimes understaffed, leading to longer checkout times. While the store offers a variety of items, inventory rotates frequently, so finding specific pieces may require multiple visits. Despite occasional stock inconsistencies, it remains a solid thrift shopping option.”
“Good place to thrift for cheap clothes and accessories. Items rotate in and out, so grab whatever you want before it eventually goes! They have specific sales depending on the color of the tag as well, so there's a lot of savings here :)”

“Went in at 2:30p on a Friday and dropped off 2 boxes. There were 2 people there. One person to collect donations and another person to write the receipt. The person collecting donations was very nice and friendly. Drop off was very easy.”
“I shop at the Santa Clara location often. Since they remodeled their store I did see their prices increase, however they do seem to have lowered them a bit because of so much criticism. I am not sure how the district office treat their employees . There are several employees at this store that are so dedicated and work their hardest to keep things clean and organized. One in particular is Tyler the Assistant Manager. He is like the Duracell bunny. He has great customer service, respect from his employees, is always moving and always trying to make the store look better. If anyone is looking for a great customer service person he would be a great person to take a chance on. I don't think Goodwill acknowledges some of these people. I would also love to mention Ray, Alban and Atsede for their hard working and customer server skills. They always have a smiling face and are eager to help. Again, I don't know if Goodwill always recognizes employees like this, but they have worked very hard to get where they are and I just wanted to say Thank You,not all people especially in retail are as caring.”
“Never know what great items you are going to find. Remember to see what color tag is 50% off. Also Tuesday is senior discount and Wednesday is Veterans discount.”
“Goodwill has made it so easy to donate items that others could use. This eliminates asking people in person, which they decline for various reasons. They are conveniently located at the rear of the building. All items are clearly labeled for different items. Don't trash what people can use!”
“It was my birthday and I had a few bucks and a lot of time. After 3 hours of shopping I picked my items. Paid for my items and the checker states oh! There is problem with our system you will be refunded in 7 business days but you cannot take items home! What! Spoke to manager and he satisfied my request thankfully. Headquarters is ripping people off holding thier money for days! Unbelievable they haven’t fixed it something very wrong with that!!”
“Visited yesterday for the first time I was really impressed on how clean and organized stuff are also they have better selection than the one that I always visit near my house in alum rock, my local goodwill is dusty and the shoes are so worn this goodwill in Milpitas have better everything and the shoes were almost new they had good quality vacuums”
