Goodwill Outlet

"This place used to be good during covid but now it's terrible!! Also the workers here are sooooo incredibly rude, especially the tall somewhat chubby guy who was wearing a Slipknot hoodie and a baseball cap. He can kiss my rear end for all I care!!! Go to Valley thrift across the street instead they are better!!"

"The current management has ruined the outlet store in Dayton simply because they find as many good donations as they can to put on their shop Goodwill website and leave mostly junk for customers who shop at the physical store. At one time the outlet store was an amazing place to shop but since corporate Goodwill has become so greedy they could care less about the customers who actually spend time and money shopping at the Dayton outlet store. They do however give special treatment to those who buy thousands of dollars worth of shoes and certain other merchandise who in turn resell it overseas. It really is an atrocity to watch a once thriving place to shop become what it is now. Besides that, they're always lacking in help and their machinery is always breaking down causing people to have to stand around and wait for hours for them to bring more merchandise out. The place is literally ran by the most incompetent people I've ever seen operating a business. Sad."

"Nasty. Junk. Dirty. Wear gloves and sanitizer needed. Cheap. Price per pound if anything is left that is not covered up in a cart. Same people there every day."

"I always enjoy stopping in here when I come visit family in town. You never know what you may find. Be prepared to dig."

"Just popped in briefly. A Goodwill Outlet in Indianapolis was my introduction to this style of store, and I have to say, I think that the one in Indy is better. This one seemed smaller, darker, and more chaotic. Instead of having people hang around the edges and bins filling in the middle, a lot of people had carts with their hordes covered with towels/blankets/etc. right in the middle of the store. They also don't seem to announce bin changes or ask people to stay out of the way during the process like they do in Indy. The checkout line also spanned nearly the entire length of the store. Luckily the person I came in with didn't feel like digging through the bins, so they hopped in line and I poked around until they were close to the registers. I ended up walking out with a few 78 records that somehow weren't shattered, a camera bag, and a couple camera flashes. The variety of the bins was decent , but not amazing. I also wasn't there to see fresh bins come out, so they were probably better than what I was there to pick through. If I went back (which is a strong possibility) and discovered that the super long line was an anomaly, my rating would probably go up. Right now I'd call my experience a 3.5, rounded down to 3 because a few bins smelled worse than you'd hope."
