Store Profile

Each Goodwill Manasota store seems to have independence in how aggressively they want to price items. This one shoots for the moon, about the same as eBay prices but unlike eBay, you're SOL if the item you bought doesn't work or has a flaw you didn't realize until after purchasing it. At least eBay will allow you to return items that are not as described. Lots of great items end up at Goodwill's Bargain Barn after they have sat on the shelf too long in the other stores, usually because of over-agressive pricing. The only deals to be found her are on items that employees can't easily look up on eBay. By the way, don't ever trust the label on retail boxes here because after you get it home and find an entirely different item inside, you have no recourse. Avoid this place of you're a frugal buyer and try the Bargain Barn instead. Beware though, it's an experience like no other thrift store. For example, they'll wheel out a cart of used shoes and literally 20 people will swarm over it like pigs at the feeding trough. You'll get a feel for what it must be like to live in Haiti!

Very clean store. I was looking for furniture. They were limited today but I've been told that they do get a better selection than the other Goodwill Stores. Easy to find and plenty of parking in their huge parking lot.

Clean, friendly, nice selection of children's clothing!
