Goodwill Industries of Eastern NC is a thrift store offering a wide variety of donated items, from clothing and shoes to books, bikes, and household goods like cooking supplies. The store mission is to create education, employment, and life enrichment opportunities. Experiences with the store vary. Some customers find it nice, clean, very well kept, and organized, with fair prices and a constant rotation of new items being sold. They report finding great treasures and good deals, noting that patient shoppers can discover humble, great, and simple treasures. Other reviews express disappointment, stating the store is not fancy and can be somewhat messy, with items like toys randomly thrown into bins. A common criticism is that prices have increased, with many feeling donated merchandise is now priced too high, making it feel less like a traditional thrift store. Some customers feel any special luxury or higher-end items have been removed, so it is not a place to find hidden gems or hidden treasures, despite having nice items and very nice employees. The overall advice is that if you see something, you should get it, as nicer things do not last long.

Although the clothes are only organized by color & type, not size, if you have time to dig around you’ll find some pretty decent stuff. Got two pairs of jeans for less than $10. Highly appreciate that the fitting rooms are open.

Not sure, but the little guy running cash register tried changing prices up on me. I called him on it and he honored the price as it written on item with a sharpie. He might have been confused.
