donations
If you’ve ever heard someone say they’re going to go thrifting, you might be wondering what they mean. Simply put, thrifting means to go shopping at a thrift store, garage sale, or flea market.
How is a thrift store different from other stores?
A thrift store sells gently used clothing, furniture, and other items at a discounted price. Goodwill is a thrift store. At Goodwill, we receive donations from the community every day, so our shelves are always stocked with tons of unique finds. The big difference between a thrift store and retail store is that the items for sale at a thrift store have been formerly used. Thrift shopping is a way of giving those items new life.
Why do people like to shop at thrift stores?
When you shop at a thrift store, it’s exciting to think of what you might find. The thrill of the hunt is what compels most people to shop at a thrift store.
When you’re shopping at Goodwill, you never know what you’ll find. Take a walk through the clothing racks, furniture area, and shelves of books, and you’ll get lost in the treasures you might find. When shopping for shoes at a thrift store, you won’t be disappointed with the selection, either. You can find shoes for kids, women, and men at our Goodwill stores.
What kinds of things can I donate to a thrift store?
If you don’t want to shop at a thrift store, you can always donate items you no longer want. At Goodwill, here’s a list of what we accept.
