Goodwill of Central Iowa

"I love this thrift shop and have been giving it buisness for a lot time. That being said, the workers there make me feel very uncomfortable. I always donate extra change when thrifting. But i cannot afford to do it everytime. I was told “shame on you” last time i said i couldn’t donate. And another time the worker was very invasive asking me questions about why i can’t afford to donate. Well i donate almost everytime but i do it at the stores where the workers make me feel welcomed. It is very hostile and has hurt my feelings."

"some of the help are always so helpful and happy. There is a couple that are the opposite. They all try hard to keep it neat. I feel some of their prices are too high....like jackets for 8.99. BUT, I noticed she only charged me for a top 5.99 and that seemed more fair. I wish they would post the half price color etc. some of the other stores do that."

"This Goodwill store has the Highest Prices I've Ever seen in a thrift store. These are items GIVEN TO THEM. Yet they feel justified in charging $9.00 for a pair of Used jeans or shoes. $3.99 for a used women's? Yes, money is Very Hard to come by, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that, because of the money situation, you don't make it harder for people to buy what they need. I've been shopping in thrift stores, with my mom, since I was 7. I know how to shop and how to look for what you NEED. Key word: NEED"

"Good place to shop if you want some cheap quality clothing..."

"Got us a great deal on a wall clock - pus my 10% military discount! As I suspected, a minor repair job and and it is as good as new."
