Checked it out based off of the reviews, but honestly was super disappointed. Everything I looked at was so over priced. The other odd thing was they had a lot of new store merchandise but it was all priced the same as if you bought it from the original store and it didn’t have a Goodwill price tag. For example, Halloween headband: $16.00? A pillow: $24.99? Sheets: $37.99? I might as well go to the original store and get it on sale or at a discount. They also had chipped/stained Starbucks mugs which I wouldn’t mind those issues but they were still $10? I might at well buy them new for $14. I didn’t understand this location at all. 2 stars because at least it was semi-clean.

Just like with any thrift store, you can get really lucky here. I found a super nice shirt (probably only worn once or twice) and it only cost me TWO DOLLARS! I love this Goodwill. Their prices are great and they have some great stuff.

Why are the prices so high here on hard goods? Pla-eze honor your community and lower your prices, get rid of the stuff. Honestly, why put so much stuff in landfills, when you could price items much lower so that your customers snap it up?!!? Do better for Temecula....

I had 2 corduroy pants one did not have a tag the other was 6.99, after talking it to the back they told me the other pair was $17 😳 basically because I wanted it. They would not let me try anything on but told me they had a 60 day return policy, so I purchased the items and tried them on in the car, they did not fit so I went back in to return them and they told me it was only exchanges..... I shop at good will all the time and this was by far the worst experience Ive had

Great location to shop & donate. If you take your time there are usually good finds and mostly reasonable prices. You do have to be mindful of your space and surrounding shoppers because not everyone keeps their distance. I usually move to a less busy section or leave. Great employees! Always very welcoming!

Worst goodwill I’ve ever been to! The men’s section barely has anything on the racks meanwhile in the back there are several racks with new clothing. I saw 5 employees just standing around not stocking the floor??? Don’t waste your time coming here to look at their overpriced junk

You would need to go to this location daily to find decent treasures. A lot of times the merchandise is junk and/or dirty. With COVID going on, they restrict the amount of people to less than than the recommended guidelines. Plan on waiting in line just to browse the store. The location is convenient for drop off and the staff is usually kind. If there were more locations around, I probably would skip visiting this one at all.

One of our favorite Thrift Stores its at the very end of town, we try to hit it first before anything :-) cause we live in Anza. It always is clean and friendly staff has good prices and you find real treasures here. They have everything youll need at every holiday as well ( on each season)

Terrible customer service. Stood in line for approximately 30 minutes with a piece of single furniture got to the door and was turned away saying they wouldnt accept furniture after the attendant came out and saw me standing in line and did not approach me or other individuals who also had furniture that wanted to donate.

I seriously dont understand how this Goodwill stays in business. Its the most disorganized, and junkiest, Goodwill Ive evenr seen. The book section is a disaster. They are literally trying to sell over priced junk here, literally.

Nice store, but too expensive.For a few bucks more you can buy really nice clothes at JCPenney as an example, so why buy overpriced second hand stuff. These are not thrift store prices anymore.

Update: May 10, 2021Definitely not what it used to be. People are still nice but the merchandise is not that great anymore.Mondays = Military Discount 15%Tuesdays = Senior Discount 15%Love Love this store! The managers and associates are SUPER 🌟. They are ALL so friendly and helpfull... Prices of clothes have gone up though 😢.. on the other hand they have great prices on other things... Bathrooms are kept locked so if you need to go just ask any associate to please un lock the door for you... GREAT store.... they just need a bigger building.

Review №39

This store should have blue shopping bags with the Goodwill logo for the customers to use will shopping like any other store. I was accused wrongly of shopliffting for carrying my stuff with me. The staff should be more efficient offering customers baskets if they have enough instead of judging customers wrongly. My advice, dont shop there..there are no carts, small store and the staff will judge you wrongly even if youre a long time customer.

My wife has dropped off donation items on 3 occasions in the last 2 weeks. The people working in the donation drop off have never offered to help unload and they do not seem appreciative. Your employees could use some customer service training.

Review №43

Price seem to be getting more and more outrageous!They get these items completely free and then are taking advantage of the location and local community by charging way higher than should be prices.These locations used be to a place for people to go that needed a deal to support your family, now you need to have 2 jobs just to buy stuff in there... Especially their black tag rip offs!

Review №47

The place has nice home items but the clothes is overpriced compared to other goodwills and price tags are confusing. also on top of that they don’t have military/ senior/ student discount which just makes it even more expensive. Definitely not coming back.

Review №48

Please reconsider donating to any Goodwill stores; nearly ALL their donations go to salaries - very small amounts actually go to those in need. Salvation Army is a much better choice.

I bought some boots and less than an hour later wanted to exchange them for another pair and they wouldnt allow it. Apparently only clothes and electronics are allowed to be exchanged even though Ive exchanged shoes there less that 8 months ago. They lost all of my business.

Review №56

Why in the world would I want to take my items that are packed in a box, just to watch the employee dump it into a bin. As if the items that brought, are trash!!!! It is hard enough to donate items that we no longer need. It is even harder to watch my items being treated like trash. I think I need to look at other donation centers.

Fr
Review №57

Anything with a brand name is overpriced. If you write that jeans are $7.49, then ALL jeans should cost $7.49. If you want to increase the price because of the brand, then it should be close to $7.49 not $24.99. Also, whats up with the baskets? Youd think theyd be able to afford carts with those prices.

Agreed. Nice staff. But many things we saw were the same price as what wed get brand new in the store. For instance, there was a filthy 10 gallon fish tank sitting with the furniture. listed for $13.99. We had just been to PetCo that same day and saw the same size fish tank that we could have bought for just $1 more. Not evertyhing is overpriced like that. But some things are. We will be going back!
