Thrift Stores near New Kensington, PA

“Y’all scammed me out of record player and that made me angry, but since then you guys have had some great deals :)

P.S. don’t buy record players from here. They will suck”

“In addition to the environmental benefit of reuse of materials, this is an excellent place to get inspiration for home projects. Great deals on tools and hardware as well!”

“The service in this store is outstanding. There is a young man, keeping his name private...but you'll know who exactly he is when you shop there because he possesses such a kind and infectious helping spirit. Along with his professionalism it’s truly hard to believe such customer service exist in today’s brick and mortar stores. But this is evident by the top-notch care and attention to detail displayed by the manager of the store as well. She has demonstrated a true commitment to customers by providing products worth anyone's time to stop by and shop there. Well, actually…wait until I have look.”

“Love my local Goodwill. As with any resale shop they can be hit or miss, but I have found some of the coolest stuff there. Once I bought about 5-7 pairs of American Eagle jeans in my size in one day, I’ve found some great household stuff there to repurpose, and helped to outfit my daughter’s first apartment with some really great kitchen items that didn’t look like used or hand me down stuff. Nice stainless steel bowls, crocks, ceramic casserole dish, etc. And it’s a great place to go when you need some “retail therapy” but don’t have a lot to spend! If you’re creative and don’t mind the hunt, you can come away with good stuff you couldn’t afford to purchase new. In addition, you’re saving a lot of items from the landfill and doing a good deed for our planet.”

“I mainly went to look for decor (I collect bird&waterfowl decor/antiques) &my gram who doesn't drive wanted me to see if they had any bookshelves. They hardly had any furniture or shelving currently...I know usually it sells the day it is donated if they put it out, so I wasn't holding my breath for the bookshelf. However, I did find a very pretty collectors tin w/birds on it and 2 pair of denim. They don't have as much to pick from in the "small" sizes in the denim. The goodwill a few exits north has a bit more. They seemed to have more large sizes donated than smalls at the current time. Hollister &Banana Republic were the 2 I found&chose to buy. The "color of the wk" is blue so I got the Banana Republic pair half off. Very nice staff and seemed very knowledgeable. I also overheard them asking the customers if they needed help with anything while I was shopping. That is always a good thing when your in a store where there is a vast amount of different inventory daily. The quicker you find what you are possibly looking for (if it doesn't find u first) the better for you and the staff. Everyone wants to be on their way (if your the customer)&or get on with their day?. It was a good experience. No long long lines either. Which was a change compared to most stores. They definitely need some donations though (im not speaking for them; its just an educated guess). So if you want to get rid of some stuff they probably need it, so maybe donate it at the Cheswick location?❣”

“Update 2-29-24: Very impressed with how organized this store became since my last time here.Review update: Still very good. I've raised my rating because the rate at which new stock is set out, lately, is better than I've ever seen at any other Goodwill store. I rarely see the same things two visits in a row. The employees really seem to be working hard, and the end cap displays they make always look cute.Original review: Pretty decent Goodwill. Fairly clean, though I have noticed a few items on shelves with cobwebs; not too big a deal. Employees are nice and always working hard.”

“One of my favorite thrift spots with most of their goods being quite affordable (minus any vintage or popular brand clothing) and all the employees are very sweet and helpful!”
