Goodwill Outlets & Bins in New York

• i seriously have no clue why this place allows people to basically act like animals. i went here bc i've always heard of goodwill and have been rly into thrifting. you get there and you can't even touch anything until the people there say go (what are we in a race??) and once you are given "permission' as a paying customer, old ladies and men start grabbing piles of clothing WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING and stuffing it into carts and bags. people push you around and have no regard for anything but making a profit off the thrifted clothes and the weirdos running this place are okay with it since they are literally renting out spaces where people can put their carts and look through the clothes and see which ones have any value. its absolutely disgusting. im telling you, do not go here and give these people your money. they're doing just fine with the money hungry scammers who spend their day there.

• Environment is very competitive and aggressive. Local/frequent shoppers, specifically (ladies with white sacks tied in their waist) are doing what I feel it is unjust/unfair, they grab all they can from the bins for them to sort things on the side, at the end leaving abandoned shopping carts full of the clothing they decided not to take or check out. Do not let them deterred you, come and do your own digging and finds, you may still scored. I personally didn't find anything besides tons of dirty and used mall brands items, it was not my day and it is okay. I do know now that I can source better at my other local thrift stores in my area.

• I found lots of great items! Go early and expect to spend at least 45 minutes there. At some point you may have to stand in line and wait about 25 minutes while they change out the bins and introduce new clothing. It goes without saying that a vast majority of the clothing is worn, dirty, and probably won't be worthy of salvaging but if you're patient and search thoroughly you can easily snatch up some gems. I got about 7 items which came out to 3 pounds and only paid $6. This is coming from a person who was very skeptical about being able to find anything.

• People go NUTS here. You can find amazing treasures if you can handle scumbags behaving like wild animals when new bins come through. people will literally break things and push others out of the way to be the first at a bin. An absolute lawless wasteland. Also, you'll have to be OK weeding through things like USED UNDERWEAR to shop here. Where is OSHA??

• $2f

• Stuff is put out almost every hour and you pay by weight. It's fun digging through the bins to find something random and cool.
