“Please shop with them.. the staff is super nice here..also if you have used items please donate them here. The prices are very low. I highly recommend shopping here for your used items. I have gathered up some stuff to take over.”
“Great selection of odds and ends, tile, paint, lighting and electrical, sinks, wall paper, plumbing odd bits, drawer pulls, nice old wood furniture. Definitely worth a peep!”

745 West Ave, Rochester“I love this location. The staff are very pleasant and helpful. They are quick to identify if an item qualifies for discount. There is also a Zara section that sells new items at 50-75% off. Check carefully to see if there is an irregularity that you can or cannot live with. I bought a lovely up to date new Zara wooden coffee table for $40, and a pair of nesting marble end tables for $100 total. My daughter gets complicated in her style all the time, and she relies on this thrift store quite a bit.”
“You definitely have to dig to find stuff but you can find some really good stuff and the prices are crazy low we got three genuine leather jackets, a go pro, a kitchen aid attachment, three lamps, a dart board, four rugs and so more and I've been there twice and only spent a total of $45”
“5 stars just because of the worker Kim. She’s the best and I would go back just for her, amazing cashier and person, she’s deserves a raise and anything else!!”
“I love how each week they have a different color tag sale and it allows me to stock up on clothes I need for the kids or just simple household stuff organized and very easy to access all the different sizes”

“I'm writing this review for book lovers, for the simple fact is that Goodwill (and Savers and the Salvation Army) have simply become the best book stores in the nation. Barnes & Noble--wonderful as the Pittsford NY location is--has become more of a cafe, toy store, and CD/DVD distribution hub than a book store. Worse, the mental plague that is Woke is finely grinding down the very last national book story chain, Barnes & Noble, like quality coffee beans. There are LGBTQ+ displays, anti-racist displays, marginalized-minority-of-the-month displays, gay posters displayed in the children's section, but where are the contrasting views? Barnes & Noble is such a blessing to the community that I have no wish to fault it for the mild way it pushes certain books and downplays others. My point is only that this doesn't happen at all in Goodwill. Books of every sort appear, new, old, self-published, controversial, contrarian, bizarro, the works. The prices are incredibly affordable, condition varies, but if you want to come across not merely good books but titles and content that surprise you, there is only Goodwill and its charitable colleagues. It's the only book store where you can see the American mind in something like a comprehensive display.”
“Great thrifting here. Wide selection of women’s clothing in very nice shape and some items are still new with tags. On Sundays look for the special tag color of the day and that item is $1, yes, only $1. I have gotten amazing deals with the special tag color of the day including dresses, skirts, workout clothing. Staff here are quite nice and do their best to keep the racks neat and organized. Shoppers are friendly too.”

800 Elmridge Center Dr, Rochester“Great place! Neat and clean. Lots of great stuff.I do wish things were sorted by size instead of color.I added this photo because knowing it had the stairs helped me remember that this was the one I wanted to visit again.”
“I’ve had a great experience selling clothes to this location. Both times I brought in a bag with 30+ items (clothes, shoes, jewelry) Both times it was an hour wait for them to look at what you have. They wanted 15+ items both times and offered $60ish. The whole process was easy and everyone was friendly and helpful explaining their process. My daughter was happy to get rid of some unwanted clothes and make a little cash. There are also 2 thrift stores across the street where you can donate whatever they don’t take.”
“I bought this wonderful hat from platos. It's a bailey of Hollywood hat, their Tino. A hat retailed at 130 dollars. I got it for 10. This store has a lot of great finds.”
“This feels like one of the few thrift stores left that actually understands that it's a thrift shop, not a boutique. Excellent prices that are set to make items move off the floor, constant deals, very appealing color tag sales...very rarely do I pull an item off of a shelf and think to myself "jeez, that's what they're charging?", which seems to happen with every other item at Goodwill. I think this place has some of the nicest staff I've ever encountered in a thrift store too. I always end up having really lovely conversations with the cashiers about my purchases when they ring me up, which I enjoy. And on the off chance that an item isn't tagged, they're willing to offer a price on the spot (don't use that information to pull off tags - A, it's a charity organization, so don't be a jerk, and B, if you have too many untagged items, they'll absolutely know you're up to something. I've seen it happen!). I understand why Goodwill doesn't do that because they have a very specific tagging system tied to their pricing team, but it is very nice to not have to put an item back because a tag happened to fall off somewhere.
I think my favorite deal here is their flat rate pricing on stuffed animals - $0.99 for pretty much any stuffed animal, with the exception of very large or complex ones (which end up being, like, $3 anyway). Not only is this a wonderful deal for me as an adult toy collector, but I often see very ecstatic children bounding out of the store with at least one given the low price; either it's something they can afford or their parents feel comfortable spending the money on. And I feel like that's what thrifting is all about at the end of the day.”
