I have been frequenting thrift shops for a while now. I like to find cool old stuff and make it better(currently creating a wall of cool frames etc). Lately the prices have been going up up up, and it has gotten to the point where I don’t buy most things I am interested in. I can afford it, but it’s not worth my time. I have been told recently that a lot of these chain thrift stores have employees who look online to price things. Really? Just because it is $ 40 on ebay, does not mean it will sell for $ 40. That and the condition of things I find are not up to ebay standards. I feel bad for the folks who shop here because they need to, and come in to find overpriced junk everywhere. I think Goodwill has forgotten that it is Goodwill.

This is a Goodwill store, so hit or miss is expected. It’s this location that changed my entire perspective of second-hand stores. Nearly 4 years ago I was here shopping for an ugly Christmas sweater. What I found was really great clothing, many higher end brand names and some with the original tags still attached. Now, I do nearly all of my clothing shopping here. Their 50% off sales are legendary. It does get crowded on those days so plan on a long wait for a fitting room and at the register.

The selection at this location can be very hit or miss. The clothing in particular is often lacking particularly in the mens section. The knick knacks are usually well stocked though and the books and CDs are plentiful. The layout is open and bright and the help friendly.

I was really excited when I was trying to kill time in Parker and found that they had a goodwill. I have always had good luck finding things for the kiddos at them. The shoe selections was very slim and they really don’t have any toes. As far as kids clothes, I was looking for xs or 5 t boy clothes and they are really all tshirts and pennys from local sports teams so I walked out empty handed which I have never done at a Goodwill before.

For a Goodwill this is a really open, well organized and well stocked shop. The racks were easy to search. The books weren’t too out of control. They had a fair amount of furniture, tons of glasses and dishes and a lot of friendly people around working. I didn’t donate, so can’t speak to that part at this location, but I like this place if you are in search for some deals(or course you will have dig, sometime even GW prices seem out of whack), but there are some treasures :)

I find it crazy that this is the only Goodwill I’ve ever been to that individually prices their records. LPs are supposed to be $ 0.99. Every Goodwill has the same sign that says this. But really, 10 bucks for a record? Cmon now.

I love Goodwill throughout Denver but this one in Parker is just disgusting. Poorly managed, dirty everywhere, and hardly a selection. Not to mention– stuff sold here is marked up way too high!

Pretty far out for us, but we stopped by one time when we were in the area. Found a nice rug for fairly cheap(it happened to be half off that day. Color of the day, or whatnot), but it had a big stain on it. Not worth it.

This was a fun place to shop for deals. Lately I have noticed that items are way over priced. These items are donated and shouldn’t come close to retail prices. I sure hope this stops or I will find another place to donate as well as «treasure hunt»

I dropped off about 5 bags of clothing the other day and decided to park and go in and look at their furniture, as I love old solid wood furniture to refinish. I figured GW would be a great place to get something cheap. LOL! The old worn out used furniture was so overpriced I was shocked! This stuff was DONATED to them and their markup on many things is like 500% or more. I could get better quality stuff for cheaper over at The Barn in Castle Rock. Total rip off. I didn’t look at their clothing, as I don’t buy used clothing for myself, or any other items so I cannot comment on that stuff. I did wander around because they had furniture in a few different places. The place was trashed and lots of dirty broken items were there. Im not a GW shopper, but figured I peek in to see what they had. Id never go back there and I may find a different place to donate as their markup is ridiculous. Certainly not a shop for those on a very tight budget.

Large open floor. Big, bright and organized. The parking situation on the other hand(not their fault) is terrible. Every space is too narrow, and I drive a crossover! SUVs, trucks, and vans overlap parking spots.

Think recycling, budget, and stumbling over great finds, and you may enjoy spending some time shopping here. Many excellent and NWT casual and dress mens clothes at Parker Goodwill save you very substantially over retail. Take your time and look carefully: casual and dress pants from Banana Republic, Carhart, Polo, Bill’s Khaki’s, military cargo, and more for $ 5. Usually a large selection of T’s, shorts, polo shirts, fleece, and dress shirts from Brooks Brothers, Gap, Eddie Bauer, Roots, Ralph Lauren, Arrow and many more. It’s for a good cause, helps with low-impact and recycling. You can drop off almost anything(helpful if you are moving) for a charitable tax-deduction receipt. Goodwill accepts your old cathode ray tube monitors and TV’s, even large ones. Inventory changes daily and seasonally. Occasionally there are 50% off Saturday sales(featuring .99 cent jeans); it gets very busy at these times.

This Goodwill is located in a store that has had a couple former lives. Consequently, it’s arranged a little awkwardly. The whole center of the store is filled, like most thrift stores, with clothing racks. I wasn’t shopping for clothing, so I didn’t check that stuff out. As you enter, off to your right is an alcove where Goodwill keeps its books. I found it to be rather disorganized. The books were loosely grouped by subject, but it was very loosely. In fact, the housewares section suffered from the same type of disorganization. Hardback books were $ 2.5 which, while fair, I found to be pricier than other thrift stores in the south area. Goodwill clearly doesn’t launder or clean stuff before they offer it for sale. I noticed several filthy items and the store smelled like dirt and musk. While I don’t frequent thrift stores, generally, there are better stores in Littleton that are cleaner, better organized, and provide a better value for bargain hunters.

This location is somewhat convenient for donations if you live near Parker. I say somewhat, because the donation door on the side of the building dead-ends in a narrow parking area and it can be a pain if anyone else is waiting to do donations. Also, whoever is sorting through donations and deciding what is going on the shelves is either sending the«good» stuff elsewhere, or just does not care if they put trash out on display. You will find broken items, items missing pieces, and cups that belong in dumpster behind a 7 – 11. Staff are mostly friendly, but the check out line is abysmally slow and nobody seems to be in a particular hurry. The book selection is pretty decent, although they are not in any particular order.
