I shop here often and the employees are usually pretty friendly. Not today. Apparently Casey White is the police of the fitting room. He honestly treated me just short of a criminal, glaring at me and accusing me of having too many items in my dressing room. I asked him if he'd like to look in the fitting room whereby he informed me that I had to play by the rules....what? I will honestly never shop or donate here again, especially when there are much friendlier places to go thrifting. Tiffany, however, was a pleasure to check me out.

The pricing is outrageous for donated free items, you can literally buy new for less. Don't tell me it pays for the employees when they are all on minimum wage, over worked and under valued and some of the nicest people you will ever meet. Also please don't patronize me with your robot answer of 'thank-you for shopping and supporting Goodwill' At least pretend you're listening to your customer base. My donations will go to support a 'real' cause and not just to fatten some CEO's pocket.

Love the store! Bummer that they have started to overprice their shoes. $39.99 is too high for "thrift" or bargain shoes. All donations.. come on people.

It's sad to say that Goodwill has gone so far downhill that it is not worth the visit. I used to enjoy the challenge. I would spend a half a day shopping, trying on clothes and even finding little treasures like the 14k gold ring I still wear around my little finger or the mid century table that I got for half price, $25.00 and is now over $2000.00 on 1stDibbs. These finds couldn't happen today. First, there is no jewelery section, 2nd very limited furniture and 3rd, the clothes cost so much that I can do just as well shopping sales at Macy's. Goodwill is a rip off. The owner seems to have discovered Poshmark and wants to compete with their prices. What he doesn't understand or doesn't care about is that people donate to the Goodwill do so to help people who can't afford Macy's or Amazon or even Target. I am on a fixed income and can't afford their ten dollar a pair jeans. Struggling families sure can't buy enough clothes at the Goodwill to dress their children. Store employees that have been there over 2 years still haven't revieced a raise. And the warehouse that used to be reasonable cost almost as much as their retail. I stopped shopping at the warehouse because it stopped being worth the drive. Gone are the days of Fifty cents a pound clothes. Not to mention the filthy dressing room floors in the retail stores. I don't know why they pay anyone to sweep the dressing room floors at night. The poor Goodwill staff end up doing the work for the janitors. Here's an idea, let go of the night janitors, bump up the retail staff pay and bring down the cost of shopping at the Goodwill. I for one have marked them off my go to list for shopping AND donations. I'd rather give direct to the homeless shelter!!! Maybe if everyone shows the owner that we aren't paying high prices for fonated items intended to go to those in need, the owner might h t down his ridiculous prices.

I really wanted to give this store a 5 star review but their prices keep it at a 3. The store is big and kept fairly clean. There is lots of natural lighting and things are nicely organized. I usually find several things that I “can’t live without”. They have restrooms available but usually need a little attention, Im thankful they are there. My only dissatisfaction is they keep raising their prices. I have found many things that are more expensive than the items are in the stores. Many of the second hand clothes I’ve seen are more expensive than the prices I’ve paid for the same things brand new. Other than clothing the prices tend to be fair. Know that some of the same things are different prices. For example, candles may be the same color, condition and size but one may be twice as much. I’ve founds this to be true on kitchen items, games, dishes, craft items and so forth. All in all this particular Good Will store is worth visiting.

Generally rude people...that includes staff and customers. There was only one staff that was polite and helpful. One star. Okay stuff (one star), but when Dollar Tree items are sold for 3 times the original price, it's time to consider going somewhere else.

Finally a reasonable Goodwill! Employees are super nice and the prices are more in line with what you would expect at a thrift store.

Great clothing section. Books are sometimes great, always great prices. Same with DVDs. Can find good movies for a great deal. Employees are cool & personable. Whenever I've asked for help finding something the employees are knowledgeable on the inventory & assist me as best they can.Prices are priced appropriately to today's economy. You find some things priced higher bc they are of higher quality. The way things are typically done at thrift stores.

Prices are too high on clothing and some shoes. I can buy brand new at Walmart for the same price on most clothing items.

Womens blouses are all $6.99; you can get new tees at Kohl’s for as low as $5.99 on sale. Prices are a little high.

Honestly all the Goodwill stores on the Central coast have gotten out of control on their prices. I work in retailer and am familiar with pricing on many different brands. The prices on some items are more than the original price on the item when it was new. Love the Long Beach Goodwill...all tops $6.99, all jeans $8.99 all dresses $9.99. Shoes range from $6.99 to $9.99. No price tags and it doesn't matter wht brand or condition, same price for everything. I have seen this at other Goodwill stores as well. Central Coast stores need to take notice!!
