Have Been to 75% of Goodwill bins probably..JUST WOW!
But because of how well I am known, I have decided to use a unknown account and to change my wording, and the way I write a little bit, so people would not figure it out.. i have been doing this for almost 25 years have made companies shut down because of my honest reviews for the people.Most of all for the customer
Oh, my gosh, I have never been to this bad of a place in almost 10 years, so bad. I have now spent 3 days last month at 1 store.
For the
THE PROBLEM IS, THIS COMPANY HAS NO COMPETITION!! THEY ARE JUST GETTING WORSE.BUT I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING.RUN THIS BAD
1. NOT ALL THE EMPLOYEES, BUT THREE OR FOUR SEEM TO GET OFF BY MAKING PEOPLE FIGHT OVER ITEMS.. BECAUSE THEY PUT SO LITTLE ITEMS IN THE BINS.
IT'S SAD!!
A. I'm not even talking about other few that use large cardboard boxes instead of the blue wheel bins that can obviously fill it up more.. It ain't so bad I have seen the bottom other bends many times in my three days, and there's more than that, because I was here about four months ago I have only visited a same-store at different times very rarely to give them another opportunity, and I have never spent almost a full week both times even close. I have looked at my calendar over the last ten years because I was shocked
B. We all know even though yeah, this company gets free merchandise that they treat customers like $$ signs lately!! But I spent over 550$ different days on purpose and for those that have never been to goodwill outlet that is like spending 10,000 or at some stores.. They tried giving me garbage bags that grip instantly for the amount of items I purchased twice that would take, and I'm talking large harbors back. It's not your 13 gallon. These are probably 20 gallon or over
I could almost fill 2 of them 1 day and I went back and asked for bags 5 to 7.. They gave me four..unreal
We have to make a change. They need competition. We must support other so cold. I can't even call this place of charity. But places like this.. Because they need to understand that they have to treat their customers better!! It is up to you people. I can't go into my regular speech and I read this over and even though I try to change my writing, it is bad. That is how upset and disgusted i am!!
I will have my full report in a month because I'm trying to be nice to all my followers. See you soon, change is coming for this company. Mm

I visited this place yesterday afternoon and found good stuff. When I went to pay, cashier said it's 6.6lb and I said sure and went to pay. The total came to around $24 odd. This was my first time so I didn't bother calculating. When I came home I seen the cashier had calculated as per 11lb and I was charged almost $10 extra. PLEASE CHECK YOUR RECEIPT BEFORE YOU LEAVE.

Keith, Brandon & Jace are a great asset to this team. I bought a 12 piece entertainment center and needed to run home to get a trailer and return by close. I arrived right at closing time and they said no worries and helped me load all the pieces carefully into the trailer and secure them. I appreciated their attitude and helpfulness. Thank you!

Great place and pretty nice facility! I’m from Cincinnati and love going to my local bins so when visiting my parents down here for the week I decided to checkout the bargain bins (up north we call them the thrift outlets). So far this goodwill bins has lived up to my expectations and more! The employees here are beyond hardworking, super nice, respectful, and friendly. Morgan and the rest of the crew do an amazing job at keeping this place flowing. Thank you for letting us know when the last bin rotation is that’s super helpful there’s been times at home where I’ve had to stay till 20 mins till close because they never tell you. Also I gotta say y’all have some great finds down here like holy cow. Anyways I love it here and will return any time I’m down. I’ve met so many cool locals and this place feels therapeutic. I love the energy and competition. Let’s go bargain bins!!!!

The quality of clothing and other items at the Goodwill stores in Sarasota and Venice is unbelievably poor—don’t expect anything better here! I’m honestly so disappointed after moving from Nashville, where the selection was much better. I had no idea how spoiled I was until now. If you’re thinking of shopping here, I’d suggest skipping it. And if you’re a reseller—good luck, you’ll need it!

It's just trash left over from the goodwill store

I LOVE the bins but I’ve had very little luck at this location unfortunately. 80% of the items they put out should’ve went straight to the trash and it seems they’re understaffed because bins don’t come out every 30 minutes. On top of all that the shoppers are very pushy and not afraid to get in front of you and snatch things away. I’ve only visited this location 5x but every single time I’m disappointed and stay way longer than I should have to. Don’t waste your time here.

ewwww this place is a disgrace they let people sit in lawn chairs along the side of the wall to wait for the next pile of stuff to be brought out and then they act like lunatics when it does come out. I know they have a ton of fights here because they try and take stuff right out your hands trust me don’t waste your time here.

We used to call this the only game in town because you could find miracles for cheap
No more. They stopped sending good stuff and just put it back through the stores again. Lmao. So now there is no game in town. Thanks!

This place was not good at all. Had people push and shove for things. Had another person claim I was going through their shopping cart when walking around it to get to the bin she’d left it in front of. Not good stuff overall.

Finding good stuff is 50/50. Found the cutest boot in my size only to never find its mate. Location is nice and roomy, which means you don’t feel like you’re on top of other shoppers like the North Port bargain barn. And the bathrooms were the cleanest I’ve ever seen in a goodwill- with the premium TP

Shopping here every day is a new Adventure. Never know what your going to find. Clean restrooms. Fun to shop & search & dig. This business has furniture & artwork as well as everything else imaginable. Gotta follow the rules when they bring out new bins/ long carts. Unable to check Electronics to see if item is in working condition. You pay by the pound. Some items have specific prices . Employees are nice & helpful.
