“I had a wonderful experience here yesterday, shopping with two of my friends from India. The owner is a very sweet, professional and knowledgeable lady with a great sense of style. Her store has well curated, good quality, stylish items ranging from polo shirts to dressy women's wear and menswear and perfumes too. I also liked her chic jewelery brand, which she designs herself:)
I bought several clothing items and one earring from here and I highly recommended this store. Thank you for this sustainable lovely store.”
“This is my favorite thrift store- everyone is so nice, and it always has great thrifting finds! I get all my dresses there, for church and school dances! It really is a hidden gem! I love it so much, and it helps support other communities, so it truly is amazing!”
“I discovered this location Hollenbeck today and I’m very intrigued. I love it so much. They have a lot of good things. Such a lovely thrift shop and for a good cause. And the staff is very friendly. I am gonna bring my friends next time. Do visit everyone :)”
“A very cute thrift store in Japantown! My partner and I have been a couple of times, and always leave with a couple of trinkets. They have a decent selection of Sanrio items, clothing, Smiskis, and Sonny Angels. They also have stickers and keychains from local creators. We’ll be back!”
“My favorite thrift shop place. The volunteers were so kind and helpful. Prices are super reasonable. It's so clean and neat. 100% of your purchase goes to support LPCH (Stanford Children's Hospital) because the founders have the foresight to purchase the building. Such a gem.”

“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.”
“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 :)”

“I appreciate all the volunteers and especially the pastor whomever greeted me afterwards to chat for a bit. Going through hard times is tough. Need a little shade while waiting though.Thank you.”
“I learning to cook, I went inside first time just checking see, found easy to use cooking utensils like the chopper and pots and pans also bedding and chairs etc. good deals plus game boards like chess, thanks for the store also walking distance about half an hour or bus 61! Still going just browsing! Nice hospitality!”
“I wish I can give this place 5 stars but there’s one worker who is always so loud and rude and gets upset when customers look through things and don’t put things back. She’ll start banging things around making all kinds of noises throwing things and dropping things on the floor and making awful comments. As if she’s trying to scare whoever “made a mess” . She’ll yell across the store to her coworkers it’s so unprofessional. Now , for the nice people , I think his name is Henry , he is Indian , he is the sweetest man ever. Always greets me , stops to have an actual conversation with me , genuinely asks me how I’m doing and how was my holiday. There’s also a blonde lady with glasses she speaks pretty good Spanish she is also very nice to ask for help and also an Asian older lady. I love going in and seeing them. There’s also a very tall casucasian gentleman always greets me as well. I haven’t seen the other lady in a long time.”
“I recently visited the Sunnyvale Goodwill store and was highly impressed with both the product selection and the overall service. The store is well-organized, making it easy and enjoyable to browse through the various sections. I found some fantastic, high-quality items at incredibly affordable prices.Beyond the great finds, the staff members were polite, helpful, and welcoming throughout my visit. It is always a pleasure to shop at a place that combines great value with excellent customer care, all while supporting a wonderful mission for the community. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend stopping by!”

“Fantastic thrift spot with a real mission! Always find great deals on clothes, books, household items, and even some hidden gems—prices are super reasonable and the selection is huge. Stores are clean, organized, and well-staffed with friendly folks. Love knowing my purchases and donations support job training and employment programs for people in the community. Easy donation drop-offs too. One of the best Goodwills around—definitely worth checking out any location in Silicon Valley!
(Highly recommend for thrifting with purpose!)”
“I recently visited this Goodwill of Silicon Valley and overall, I had a pleasant experience. The store is clean and relatively well-organized, which makes browsing through the aisles an enjoyable process. While it’s not the largest store, they’ve done a good job of maintaining a tidy and welcoming environment.
One of the standout features is the selection of books. Whether you're looking for a good read or something specific, their book section is pretty decent for a thrift store, with a nice variety of genres and titles. However, if you're in the market for furniture, you might be a little disappointed. Their selection of furniture is quite limited, so don't expect to find a lot of options in that department.
What they do have, though, is a unique variety of items. I found an interesting collection of wooden dishes, which you don’t typically come across in most stores, along with a decent assortment of toys for children. The clothing section is also worth checking out. While it may not be massive, it offers a good mix of styles for different tastes and sizes. I noticed a few nice shoes as well, though, like most thrift stores, it’s hit or miss depending on what’s been donated recently.
There’s also an eclectic mix of household items, including Chinese ceramics and glassware, which adds a fun, treasure-hunt feel to the store. You never know what kind of unique finds you’ll come across during your visit.
One thing that really impressed me was the staff. They were more than helpful and extremely friendly, making the shopping experience even better. There were plenty of employees on the floor to assist customers and answer any questions, which is something I don't always see in second-hand stores.
In summary, while the furniture selection is lacking, this Goodwill offers a clean and relatively well-organized shopping environment with a good variety of unique items, books, and clothing. The friendly and helpful staff are a definite plus, making it worth a visit if you're in the area and looking for a good deal or an unexpected find.”
“Cozy, clean, and organized with a nice selection of good-quality items. I came in 15 minutes before closing and the ladies were very welcoming, conversational, and even let me stay a few minutes past closing. I look forward to going back and chatting with them again!”
