Goodwill Industries Retail Store & Career Center

My sister and I have been to many Goodwills across Florida and Georgia, this was the first Goodwills to be such a disappointment! It was in such disarray you could not walk down the aisle. Boxes of games, toys, kitchen items thrown on the floor, scattered across the shelving. As quick as staff could straighten items, they would be scaterred. Children were running thru the ailes, throwing balls snd tossing toys. It was a large store with much potential, but terribly disappointing 4 trip from Tallahassee. Come on America, act civilized!

Minor update: 6÷10÷2013 — My previous review still stands, so this will only be a minor update. I looked at TVs in here lately and they are marked no returns as-​is with lines added on the bottom saying no credit. Being that they also aren’t plugged in and have no where to display any program/​video/​etc. there is no guarantee you will even get a television that works if you buy here.
Very overpriced on the knickknacks, electronics, anything in a box. Most of the boxed stuff are returns from Target stores, usually because it’s broken. They will almost always be exactly half of what target would ask for them. I’ve bought some boxed items in the past that were downright dangerous. (A propane grill that shot flames out in places it certainly shouldn’t. There was no way to fix it that I could see. Returned and got the only other unit they had and that was in fine working order. Goodwill employees put the other back on shelf after being told it was dangerous.)
Lots of items, even not returns from a Target, are broken. You have to play the game of find the flaw especially hard at this thrift store. Lots of the stuff is so horribly uselessly broken that it’s almost comical (A fan with the motor broken completely off of the fan body, which was shattered to pieces, was one of the best I’ve seen.)
Open everything, inspect it all well. They offer a store credit 3 day return policy on anything with a receipt, so keep it handy. Store credit only keeps me from taking chances on the more expensive items here.
Place is often overcrowded as well and there will be horrible lines because they usually only have a register or two open.
Occasionally, you’ll get lucky and find something not overpriced/​horribly dated/​broken/​etc. I don’t generally look at the clothes often so I can’t comment on them. I often walk out of here with nothing, or leave because my $ 2 item isn’t worth standing in line for 20 – 30 minutes.
There are lots of better Goodwill stores out there.

Most stuff is over priced, but there are some really good bargains on clothes. Their selection and pricing on Wii accessories has Wal-​Mart beat hands down though.
