Very High Prices From Goodwill Stores and Salvation Army Stores

[RogueCrockett]

Here is what i have learned:

1. Ask and look for specials (i got books 12 for a dollar at salvation army yesterday)

2. Get a card or join their facebook for coupons (this crap is stupid but it is the only way you can save on some cool junk especially at savers XD )

3. Savers Thrift Store by far charges the most so get that card of theirs

4. All complaining is just piss in the wind so yea the best way to stop these people from becoming a conglomerate is to petition and complain in groups XD

In Springfield it is a different story. They have been closing the Goodwill stores here. I believe it has everything to do with the prices they are putting on everything. People have stopped going to them and buying their stuff because of the price.

I'm in Illinois near Chicago,Goodwill is far lower $ then SA,SA's are without a doubt gouging, garbagable furniture, $50 & up,untested electronics, appliances

in the triple digits ?I know there's overhead & business costs, jeans $10 & up ?.I know for a n absolute fact the comparison to averages on EBAY are involved,I know for a fact employees are aware of high end goods & donations never make the floor

Agreed! Same here in CT. Their new slogan is "More Money - More Mission", so that explains it all...I guess! Happy Hunting!!!
