What shoppers say4
Yes they did have a few good things that you can get a great deal on but here's the thing. They have one side that is the retail side set up like the store which is decent and somewhat clean but the other side where you pay for stuff by the pound is the most heinous thing I've ever seen. You might go there looking to pick up a great deal you might leave with having picked up a disease. The bathroom had no soap and was disgusting and the actual place where you look through old junk was super dirty they had no hand sanitizer throughout the whole place. If you go here stick to the retail side.
Franky This was an interesting experience, one side of this huge store is "retail" and the other "outlet", which is the side I chose. Few carts seem to be available so I suggest you bring your own bag box or tote to fill up and be weighed for pricing. 1.89$ a lb, when I visited. Things are grouped together in large shallow bins, clothing, shoes, books, and housewares aka everything else. You are free to rummage through things and if you stay long enough you'll witness a massing crowd as they switch out bins of things. Could be a Saturday thing..idk. The place could use a good cleaning as compared to other goodwill locations. Did not visit the retail side yet..
James I am an expert bargain shopper in found very few items that were very good economy. Everything is priced by the pound. Books are $0.59 a pound clothing is a dollar 49 a pound and miscellaneous items are a dollar 59 a pound. I found some thin music instruction books that were very good economy. I bought some brand new with tag shorts for the children but we're in bargain compared to the retail price. I bought a brand new DVD for $0.35. There are much better deals in the world of thrift then this place. However, it is worth experiencing at least once. Some of the regular shoppers are used gloves to sort through the bins. There is no rhyme or reason or true organization to anything there. the books are separated from the shoes and the shoes separated from the clothes. So you basically put your cart around on going on a digging expedition.

First time going here and I will definitely be back. I found some really great items for practically nothing. It's not like other thrift stores where you search the racks and pay for it at the register. This place you go in grab a cart and you search through bins until you find however many items you like and then when you're ready to pay you take it up to the register and instead of paying per item they weigh all of your items together on a scale and you pay per pound. I was a little taken aback when I first walked in the door but once I started looking through the bins it changed my mind about the place. The only complaint I have is the noise. It is so loud in that place from the employees in the back of the store that it's a little nerve-racking but considering the items I went home with that day I think I can overlook that. I 100% recommend this place.
