“Such a charming spot with great finds. Carol is fantastic and helped us find what we had our eyes out for and then some! Walked out with heavy hands, will definitely be coming back!”
“Love this store and could spend hours here. The adult clothing is a little more expensive than other local thrift stores but the children's clothing is so cheap. They have large selections of kitchenware, children's toys and books, games, crafts, and more.”
“Sweet Repeat is a nice location to come shopping. They keep a good rotation of products there and the sales people are nice and easy to work with. They work very hard to keep it well organized! Today we shopped again... and found new treasures!”
“I was shopping at the Laurel House earlier today. Got lots of neat clothes for my daughter and myself. Prices are fantastic for the quality of the clothing!!!!!! I came home and remembered that I had been at the Laurel House for domestic abuse back in 1985, with my 3 year old daughter, and 8 month old son. I'm so glad I stopped in and able to give back.”
“the staff was very friendly! there’s a great selection of nice clothes, jewelry, and shoes. the shop is very clean and organized. i will definitely be going back!”
“The ladies are so nice, friendly and helpful!
The shop is small but extremely neat and beautifully decorated.
The items are priced very affordable to help the church.”
“My favorite thrift store! I always find brands I like and the prices have stayed low compared to others in the area. All the tshirts are $1 if I remember correctly. Love this place.”
“Great place to visit around Halloween. Old house pretending to be a shop, probably run by the spirit of a well-to-do lady. Opened the front door to the clang of copper confectionary moulds before stepping into this pack-rat time capsule. Michael Jackson blasting from a staticy radio as I squeezed around heaps of clothes and paintings almost impossible to weave between, much less browse. Found myself in a kitchen that looked half in use, half shop space. Didn't see a soul and was too spooked to venture up the staircase despite the tantalizing old dresses at the top of it. Prey bait for sure. Most spooked I've been all month. I'm sure the clothing is nice, too. 4.5 stars”
“Went today but to find the sign of only open September through June. Hopefully another time.
Also to find if ,there’s a small sign you see from the main road and then you go in all the way to back to see the entrance of the store”
“Only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because the clothing is too jammed in now and it’s claustrophobic. New owner is great. Like any used clothing by store, beware of buying anything wool…”
“Nice little place run by nice ladies . Very helpful and dedicated to their cause . Very well kept place . Selection is not vast but prices are reasonable. Keep in mind that they only accept cash .”
“Had a last min interview at a bank and this place got me right together I got a Ralph Lauren bottom up for $10 and slacks for $10 and a pair from low heels for $20 so I spent $40 in total . Grab price for a outfit I had to get last min”
“Very well maintained second hand goods, best priced quality thrifting in the area. The staff is welcoming and helpful, and they have a punch card for more savings.”
“We have used this personally over the years and found great outdoor and indoor furniture. Now that I work at Bryn Mawr Hospital Foundation, I see firsthand the difference the volunteers make and the impact of the revenue that directly supports our care providers and programs. Check it out!”
“D was like a personal stylist for me the entire time I shopped. She helped me pick out the outfit head to toe. She had great advice and great suggestions!!! 5++++ stars for her incredible customer service today!!!”
“Lots of stuff in this store. Lots of luggage, bags, shoes and so on. Like any other goodwill, some of the stuff is mixed up with other sizes. Some customers don’t bother to put it back where it should go.”
“Amazing staff and a great turnover of new and exciting finds! Always a treasure to be found!! And you can't beat how friendly the managers and their staff are!! Feels like family!!”
“A nice thrift store. I drove an hour to go there and I say my trip was worth it. Only two complaints…. First are the prices. They charge $3.50 for the majority of kids clothing- no matter the brand, yet any and every adult shirt and sweaters are $6.99 or above. It’s kinda ridiculous. From where I am from shirts are $3.99-5.99. And sometimes your left wondering why two of the same shirts have different prices. Secondly, whilst looking at the trinkets and such I noticed a group of women in the back just standing in the middle of the walkway. Then, a fresh cart of goods came from the back and they all darted to the cart like a person who hasn’t eaten in 10 years. And when I tried to pass them, one of them started to look at me with disgust because my cart was “hitting her”. I pulled the deaf card and she immediately backed away. Regardless, those types of resellers are always annoying and it seems that this spot is big with them (they sure are terrible resellers bc I found plenty of things worth value that was on the shelves already). Anyways, besides those two things, I still liked my visit. Thanks greedy- i mean, Goodwill!”
“Here's a more detailed breakdown:
1. Rising Operating Costs:
Rent and Utilities: Like any retail business, Goodwill stores have to pay for rent, utilities, and other operational expenses, according to Haven House Thrift Stores.
Wages: Increased wages for employees also contribute to higher operating costs.
2. Increased Demand:
Thrifting Trend:
The popularity of thrifting and the growing interest in sustainable consumption have led to a surge in demand for used goods, according to Yahoo Finance.
Resellers:
Resellers often purchase items from Goodwill and then sell them online at higher prices, notes a YouTube video. Goodwill's prices may be influenced by what resellers are willing to pay, and they may also be looking to capitalize on the resale trend themselves.
3. Quality and Brand:
High-end Items:
Items in good condition, especially from well-known brands, may be priced higher than lower-quality or generic items.
New with Tags:
Even if an item is used, its condition and brand can significantly impact its price.
4. Goodwill's Purpose:
Non-profit Mission:
Goodwill is a non-profit organization, and its profits go towards supporting community programs.
Raising Funds:
Goodwill stores need to generate revenue to fund their mission, which may lead to higher prices compared to for-profit retailers.”
“I come to this store every now and again, and I just have to say, the staff and manager here must be saints. The kindest people. A young girl and her mother walked in while I was shopping and the girl had such an attitude and was so mean spirited towards the owner it took me aback. And the owner still asked to help her unload her car, took her items right away (even though I’m sure she wasn’t first) - this store has top notch professionalism and customer service. Come here if you want to be treated well.”
“I been going to this store for the past 5 months, and I have experienced nothing but great customer service from customers service coordinator Nick. When I come into store he always greets me, asks me how am I doing and if I need any help. He is always very professional with me and anyone he comes encounter with. I often see he is very respectful and polite to her colleagues and coworkers. For what I can see when I’m in the store as often as I am, he always is making sure everyone in the store is happy. Celeste is also a wonderful worker, she is always respectful and kind.”
