Please stop selling dollar store items for more than the price at the dollar store. Goodwill cant be that greedy! Also, you should donate those military uniforms to a more appropriate thrift store located on base.

This is my favorite location. From the aisle distribution, to the music, and the friendly staff, theres something special about this one. Some of my favorite thrift finds come from this store! Lots of BQT at amazing prices.

Havent found outstanding deals, but they do carry higher quality items in new or lightly used condition, in other words not that much junk. Very friendly staff and convenient, nice location. I would stop here to find emergency beach stuff if youre far away from home or low on $$$. Very pleasant experience every time I visit.

What a gem this place is! Truly one man’s trash is another man’s treasure- and the employees sure know how to make this entire store look like just that. The set ups and displays are so unique, creative, and very appeasing to the eye with their color coordination. Even EACH isle is color coordinated and neatly organized. You could walk in with an idea of what you are looking for and easily find items due to their attention to detail. And to top it all off- the employees are incredibly sweet and pleasant. (By far) the best goodwill I’ve been in!

I go here for when I need to buy clothing items that I dont plan on wearing too often, like dresses. Good selection and quality. I have found BCBG, White House Black Market (still with tags), J crew, Philosophy and other great brands for really good prices. I do wish the lighting in the dressing rooms was brighter, a little too dim in there.

Goodwill has good and excellent condition goods and clothes. The other day, I bought a button-up shirt with floral patterns for about $5! There are deals to be found if you have the time to visit and browse. Some stores like the Broadway one in C.V. offer a lot of things such as video consoles and bicycles.

I just moved here (and drove) from across the country a few months ago and had barely anything due to only fitting particular small items in a vehicle. I was on a budget and I didnt want to spend thousands on new home goods, furniture, clothing, etc. This store has saved me so much money!!! I bought all of my home goods here are well as some new and stylish vintage clothing. I found beautiful glassware, dishes, silverware, original framed artwork, decorative baskets, and much more. I could of bought some nice furntiture here but I am now moving once again. It is so much cheaper now a days to buy at thrift stores and to save money. Plus you find much more unique items here that you never would find in the store for such a cheap price. Youd be surprised the types of treasures you will find that you need to buy here. Of course if you go at different times and days of the week it can be hit or miss( if you plan on buying a lot at once), but every trip going to this store was worth it. This particular thrift store is small, but they have quite a selection that is constantly changing. The staff is friendly, and if you are in the military you can save even more money. I highly recommend you go here before buying at the mall.

We were discriminated against we have never been treated this way. We were unable to show my clothing to my partner, they were rude to us. I feel they were rude to us because we were wearing tie dye. Overpriced indeed! We talked to the manager and she didnt want to handle it, we had to handle it with corporate. Worst goodwill experience Ive ever had!!! And I have been to many all over Texas and Colorado. Unnecessary to treat us this way.

I love the Goodwill program. I love getting great clothes at hugely discounted prices. I am not fond of the disorganization in the sizes of the clothes and the rude customers that dont pick up after themselves. I also was not fond of having bloody snot wiped all over the changing room after a long wait to actually be able to get a staff to get in.

Review №16

They had a pretty decent selection for the size of the store. Best part is that Goodwill accepts my student ID card for a student discount, where most stores say only if you are like 18-19 years old, I think that is ridiculous. They were very good to work with us because my daughter was taking forever in the changing room and we ended up running past the closing hours, but they were very patient and well mannered and I didnt feel like they were shoving us out the door.

Nice goodwill, well kept but overpriced. Looking for work jeans, all the levis are $20, while the other goodwills all charge $9 or $10. Expect to pay double here for almost everything compared to the goodwill in chula vista.

Remember that. Older pledges have always been at the Goodwill. Its not a department store this well is quote is(so swell) for alliance unto the life of those in worldly places. Hence Imperial Beach.

Go with a specific target in mind, look inside the blue binds because thats were the new and valuable items are place before being put on display. Great for a quick in and out ✔ check specially during lunch hours. Be wise.

Love this store Their Customer Service is Great! Im almost a daily shopper and always see new things ! Only one minor complaint is that it is a small Goodwill (space wise ) so the toy section is above the racks of clothes and book and videos/music are in a cramped section as well

I like Goodwill, however this one seems to raise their prices constantly. Went to pick up a used pot for parts washing, They wanted $12.99 for it and when I looked online for similar items, I found I could get one twice the size for $2 less at Wal-Mart. That is absurd!!

The prices have crept back up at this location. I noticed the same frying pan for the same price at the Grocery outlet across the road. Ive noticed that goodwill corporate thumps this stores prices down about once every two years, its about time to thump them again.

I am a regular client of this branch, but today I received a very bad discrimination from an employee who works in this place,As I said at the beginning I am a regular customer and always consume, and like my visits are constant and on several occasions The same employee made comments to my negative childrenI just thought at that moment that I was stressed, or still had a bad dayBut today I discovered that no, his annoyance was that I speak Spanish and that I can not answer or say anything and the bad treatment was more than 5 times not towards me if not my children when in the store I still more clients around only the ill-treatment went towards us when I realized what was happening at that moment I resorted to speak with a supervisor and told him what happened more however I did not tell him that it had happened on several occasions I think it will not do nothing, But please I know what it is to work in stores and how people do not value the efforts of others and I know that is why I have taught my children to respect the work of others please just ask that we are all people and we should Respect no matter what condition you have or race just dont discriminate and put yourself in their place ❤️❤️❤️
