About The Salvation Army Thrift Store Woodside, NY
The Salvation Army Thrift Store in Woodside is a hit-or-miss destination for thrifters, requiring time to dig for treasures. The store is organized with different aisles, providing good aisle space to walk around, and has been reorganized to feel more open. It offers a very large selection of items, including a big book selection at the front, varied clothes and pieces, glassware, plates, bowls, and dining ware. A standout feature is its excellent DVD selection, with discs in good condition for a low price. Prices are generally low to moderate, with some items among the cheapest in the city, especially glassware for $1-3. However, some items can be a little pricey.

They were charging about $3 for Dollar Tree brand glass mugs that still had the DT stickers on the bottom. That means they know they're overcharging.
Almost everything was overpriced so I left.

They don’t accept all donations (I.e. no kid items). It was frustrating to learn once there in person after making the time to drive there to donation several bags of clothes and toys.
