I figured I'd try out this Goodwill as I was in the mood to go thrifting.
Appearance/Layout:
From the moment you enter the store it doesn't feel like your run of the mill Goodwill. It looks warm, classy, and inviting. There are two fitting rooms to the left once you enter the store and the one I used was quite spacious and well-lit.
Service:
Almost immediately upon entering I was warmly greeted. Later on, the kind lady also unlocked one of the fitting rooms for me preemptively and politely informed me that I'd normally have to ask one of them to unlock it for me. Checkout was also nice as I didn't have to wait and the wonderful woman pleasantly chit chatted with me and took time to gently fold my items and pack them with tissue paper.
Selection:
I was shopping for button up shirts, sport jackets, and blazers and found a decent selection of all of them. Like a lot of stores, it's men's section is relatively small but the quality of items here was top notch. It was easy to find pure wool sport coats, pure cotton shirts, and the like which isn't the norm for second hand stores. If you're a brand shopper you can find stuff from Nordstrom and even Brooks Brothers here. There weren't many solid white shirts without button down collars, though. I decided on a pure wool, Brooks Brothers blazer with a center vent as well as a dark blue, button up, spread collar, all cotton, slim fit, Calvin Klein shirt.
There are two more small details which hint at the quality of items here, and those are: the wooden hangers used for their coats, and that when possible, said coats are listed by numerical size rather than just by the typical small, medium, large, etc. If you know your size this makes narrowing down your selection a lot easier from the outset.
Overall Impression:
Thoroughly pleased with my purchases and will definitely be back.
