“I shop at the Santa Clara location often. Since they remodeled their store I did see their prices increase, however they do seem to have lowered them a bit because of so much criticism. I am not sure how the district office treat their employees . There are several employees at this store that are so dedicated and work their hardest to keep things clean and organized. One in particular is Tyler the Assistant Manager. He is like the Duracell bunny. He has great customer service, respect from his employees, is always moving and always trying to make the store look better. If anyone is looking for a great customer service person he would be a great person to take a chance on. I don't think Goodwill acknowledges some of these people. I would also love to mention Ray, Alban and Atsede for their hard working and customer server skills. They always have a smiling face and are eager to help. Again, I don't know if Goodwill always recognizes employees like this, but they have worked very hard to get where they are and I just wanted to say Thank You,not all people especially in retail are as caring.”

570 N 6th St, San Jose“I went here recently for the first time with my girlfriend after being recommended to come here and it was such a lovely experience! All the items are incredibly cute, the store is set up really nicely too! It was very clean and well organized. although I see some reviews complaining about the price, you can't get cute quality clothing and expect it to match Shein prices. The staff were also very kind. I will definitely be coming here again!”
“Kris is a wonderful person and incredibly passionate, friendly, talented, and real. Most of the jewelry she makes herself. The prices are fair and students of any school get 10% off. Definitely come check out this boutique!”
“They have a very nice selection of clothing! Everything is sectioned by sizing. They do have a plus size rack and a small fitting room. The store is on the smaller side but definitely one filled with hidden treasures and trinkets :) I would recommend to come early. Staff was very kind and helpful!”
“First of all, i love the music they play on their radio-- haha! Everyone is very nice and the service is overall 10/10. their selection of items really surprised me. They have toys, games, books, clothing, phone cases, and a bunch of other random gems! Lastly, the price of everything is shocking-- like, good shocking! you can find some really sweet and absolutely CHEAP items! like 75 cents each for hot wheels!? there are some really valuable things there priced very low which can really save lots of money for people like me who really don't have lots of money on them. 5/5 stars!”

4950 Almaden Expy, San Jose“This place is great! Makes the Goodwill look archaic! So I went on Nextdoor neighbors and asked if anyone had a "---- " to sell me! Don't want to share what it was given the incredible deal I got at Savors! I think I will go back and relook to but another to give away as they actually gave useful items here- second or third hand, lots of items won't matter if they are used and this place has the things that are! All kinds of items and way more than other second hand stores I've gone to around the Southbay area! Go. Support And drop goods off too! I will absolutely return! (1-st review of 2024**).”
“really nice guy working there. been there a couple times , its a really quiet store not many customers but lots to look at please suggest going there and supporting the small buisness :)”

2306 Almaden Rd, San Jose“Good place to thrift for cheap clothes and accessories. Items rotate in and out, so grab whatever you want before it eventually goes! They have specific sales depending on the color of the tag as well, so there's a lot of savings here :)”
9AM - 8PM
702 W Taylor St, San Jose“Good selection of clothing and friendly workers. Prices are a little high, but I'm used to non-California prices so Im not sure if it's the norm. They have days and weeks with specific discounts for all clothing or specific categories/tags, so look out for those. Also suggest joining their mailing list beforehand to get a coupon for 25% 1 item. July 26-27 is every clothing item for $3 each, so I'd suggest going then. Was annoyed one of the fitting room doors was broken, but the one I used was clean and well-kept.
Prices I noticed/bought from:
Shirts: $6-$12
Shorts: $6-$8
Pants: $8-$12
Dresses: $9-$13
Purses/bags: $15-$25”
“One of my favorite good wills in the area. I love the upstairs section there’s always something that catches my eye and the men’s clothes has some very good options that fit my taste. Down stairs has recently been reorganized for the better.”
“Easy place to drop off your old clothes donations. Can park in the parking lot though it's hard to find a spot there. tip: Receipt is via the QR code now so no more old school paper receipts.”

60 S San Tomas Aquino Rd, Campbell“This is THEE goodwill to go to, amazing prices, absolutely PHENOMENAL staff who will bend over backwards to help the customers find a product or deal, an associate I believe her name was Melissa or Melinda ba something, helped me out superbly, found my product, got amazing service, got some extra equipment to boot, got some new shoes some new toys for kids and even a new treadmill, absolutely superb, this goodwill does it right by hiring amazing staff and caring about the customers and being attentive to their needs, I went there awhile ago and I don't shop any other goodwill anymore!”
“Love stopping here when I can, some prices are good, some are really high. One super con is they mark directly on items with permanent market. Annoying to get off, sometimes it doesn’t come off and for real writing onto wood with marker? 2 thumbs down for permanent market. I do love the staff, they are also so helpful and bright.”

1659 Hollenbeck Ave, Sunnyvale“Found some amazing vintage pieces here! This store is small but MIGHTY. For the quality of items that they carry, I thought the prices were great. They also have an open dressing room, which I love. Expect to spend an average of around $10/item.”
“This is a really nice thrift-ish store in Los Gatos and I love the way it's laid out. Very friendly employees too!! if you wanna go shopping for Halloween, they have plenty of costume like clothing! It's such a deal!!”
“This review is for donation only. I came on a Monday afternoon at around 1:30pm. There was no wait to donate. To donate, you have to drive behind the building and there will be a large area to self sort (clothes, linens, books, etc). I donated baby furniture such as jumper and bouncer and worker sorted that for me. The guy was very pleasant. I decided to donate here as Hope Thrift (closer to me) doesn't accept baby furnitures. Goodwill doesn't accept car seats though which expires. There is a QR code to scan for receipt.”
“I found a steam canner here for my mom and we got up to the cashier debating whether or not we wanted it. We were a bit sad when we said that we weren't going to keep it and we would just get it when we come back someday, but an amazing cashier, his name is Norman, paid for it for us and let us have it. We're really grateful so if the cashier Norman is reading this, thank you so much.”
“Well organized, pretty nice employees. Went in today and I was frazzled by guest commotions over the shopping cart I had and the woman checking me out (Deborah G) was super patient with me even though i entirely missed a couple of her sentences. I also made a request with bagging (i wanted the cool plate on the top) and she was enthusiastically helpful about it. I hope you have a good day Deborah :)”
“3.5/5 stars. The better goodwill on this side of town. Decently busy with customers. Turnover is good so I can always find some things I like. A medium sized store that doesn't take too long to get through but still manages to cram a lot in. Good organization. Employees mainly just man the cashier, open dressing rooms. and leave you alone. Pricing is higher for trendier items or well known brands, which is sometimes worth it, but there's a usually a cheaper alternative somewhere in the store. Last time I went they had a hand sanitizer stand but the sanitizer had a funky smell so you're better off bringing your own if you can. Overall, a solid goodwill that I probably will keep visiting. I'd say they're best for clothing.”
“This is my second time dropping off items at this site. It was a quick task as they have categorized large labeled bins for almost everything. The only reason I did t give it a five star was there was little parking space. You also have to drive to the back which was one way in and out.”
“Visited yesterday for the first time I was really impressed on how clean and organized stuff are also they have better selection than the one that I always visit near my house in alum rock, my local goodwill is dusty and the shoes are so worn this goodwill in Milpitas have better everything and the shoes were almost new they had good quality vacuums”

5152 Moorpark Ave Suite #80, San Jose“Went in at 2:30p on a Friday and dropped off 2 boxes. There were 2 people there. One person to collect donations and another person to write the receipt. The person collecting donations was very nice and friendly. Drop off was very easy.”
“I appreciate all the volunteers and especially the pastor whomever greeted me afterwards to chat for a bit. Going through hard times is tough. Need a little shade while waiting though.Thank you.”
