“I love this place, the stock is always new and the staff is wonderful. So many fun treasures to find. I often loose track of time and they don't ever rush me. They even stayed an hour past close one night and I didn't even realize it. They are the bomb. They price by the lot so the thrill of the hunt is a blast. Totally stop by often!! Highly recommend.”
“Such a lovely shop with so many varieties of items. The ladies that work there are so friendly and kind. That in itself was an absolute pleasure. I’m excited to return.”
“The Nicest people ever run this resale shop. Obviously since it’s resale, stock changed frequently. I Just attended their ribbon cutting at their new location and it’s fantastic! So easy to get to, a much easier space to shop in and they have more storage and sorting area, too. Please bring all your gently used goods to LRC!”
“If you want a real thrift store that doesn't price gouge you with eBay listing prices, go here. It's one of the few places left on earth that sells made to last things for good prices. I saw a 60 year old leather lunch bag that probably has 100 years left in it for under $15. Can't beat it! Saleswoman was so sweet, great vibes here.
I saw nice brands here, they have a little one person dressing room. Don't let the size fool you - I got lost in here looking around for an hour.”
“Lovely little shop with nice variety and reasonable prices. A few men's clothes, women's, household/decor. Proceeds benefit the hospital (per the nice cashier lady I asked), such as something for the NICU, etc. There are always people unable to afford hospital bills; this is a creative way to help care for those in need.
Glad to have discovered this store!”
“I was in another place and my daughter had an accident but of course it was the one time I didn’t bring clothes with and boy was I glad this store was next door. I was able to walk right in and to the section I needed. Line was a bit long but backup was called immediately”
“Large donation center, well organized. Plenty of parking, Handicapped accessible entry. Most items reasonably priced, but a few were overpriced. Large assortment of goods for perusal and purchase. Enough cashiers ready at checkout. Restrooms clean and available for patrons. I would shop here again.”
“After visiting my doctor, I asked the receptionist if there were any good resale places in the area, and she happily replied, " Yes, I've found some really nice things at New Uses, by Aldi". I googled it. It was close. I wasn't disappointed! First, there was plenty of free parking. It was handicapped accessible entry. The place was extremely neat and well organized. I found a great plant stand on wheels practically new, a nice African wall mask, and a unique letter M, which is my last initial. I plan to stop in after every doctors visit!”
“Friendly people reasonable prices and very clean storeI went this morning and today’s offer was “roll the dice” and whatever number you get that was the discount they give you.! Fantastic”
“I really liked this store. Tons of variety. Great prices. I hate even giving this review because I feel like I'm giving away my secret favorite new place to shop. Hahaha”
“My little one came in & took off running. If your a mom you know how stressful that can be. I can say even though that happened, our shopping experience was still delightful. The staff were very accommodating & polite. Let me add that the clothing/shoes are for a more maturer customer. All in all, I recommend them if in need of pieces immediately and for their furniture/appliances.”
“Went to this Goodwill store first time on Friday with my daughter and we loved it. Employees were friendly could be a little more proactive (training 101) but my sales rep was awesome and she offered me a rewards card to use for future items. It was nice to see that 'Everything had a place, and a Place for everything' nothing on the floors. However, I do suggest they keep a close eye on some of the clothing on the racks that have threadingloose some were torn seems like from hangers or mishandled from customers and those items should be removed. It is good to see that you show the quality and care for what you display and sale in your store because, it's the first and last impression of the day that can make an impact on your customers. I visit this store again.”
“Sarah in cashier was very nice,professional but it was long queue ,she was the only person there, thx so much for your smile and time to take it easy with customers ?”
“Love this Goodwill store. Always a great place to find art, home goods and especially ladies fashion. Store is always neat and organized. Great work by your employees.”
“I love being able to drop my unwanted items here and drive away knowing someone else will get better use out of it. Better than the stuff being in the landfills.”
“This was the cutest little thrift store and had so many beautiful items! I’ve been wanting to check it out for some time and I was not disappointed :-) The worker was very kind and helpful too, really appreciated how she wrapped up my trinkets with love ?”
“Was at this location today, bought some shoes for my baby and just want to say thanks for cassier Cris, he was very nice and helpful. Another day, a cassier was another guy, older, with his headphones on, he wasn't friendly at all. Just thank you Cris, you made my day, you are very good as a salesperson.”
“I’ve frequented the Crest Hill store on many occasions, to both sell and shop. I was actually very impressed with the quality of items and how well the store is organized and arranged. The employees have always been very friendly and helpful, offering any assistance and helping me load and unload my car when needed. I understand how the buying process works and have always been satisfied with the $$ received on my items. It’s easy and quick cash so it beats just giving it away or going through the agony of a garage sale. I appreciate that they truly take the time and effort to diligently look up every item to make sure they are offering you a fair price while keeping the item at a cost where they can still turn around and sell it at a large discount back to the public. The owners Dave & Tina take great pride in their stores and it shows with their commitment to providing the best customer service and quality of items. I will definitely continue shopping and selling to New Uses!”
“I go to the two dollar sale. It is awesome. You just gotta be careful and look at everything you buy make sure there’s no stains or holes or anything else because it is a used clothes store so but besides that they are awesome. I would shop there anytime.”

“Contrary to the negative perception of this location, I thought the prices were reasonable for the quality of the clothes. I got a Forever 21 denim skirt with no tears/damage for 5$ - just make sure to wash the clothes after purchasing and wash your hands as well - but if you are buying clothes, remember to look at the seams and any zippers, etc.”
“VERY WELL ORGANIZED, clean, the staff was very helpful, and I had a good time hunting for fun stuff. I found some throwback jeans!!!
If you are a "thrifter", this is a fun store....and... you are contributing to a great cause. Thank you, Goodwill !”
