I had an incredible experience today, finding museum worthy vintage designer sets and phenomenal…read moreshoes! For about 1/5 to 1/10th of retail. This will be a regular stop for me now. People were so nice.

I was very underwhelmed at Blue, Goodwill's "boutique" of supposedly nicer clothing brands. I…read moredidn't see anything that I haven't seen in regular Goodwill retail stores. The price tags were too high (some were even higher than you could have found them at retail for), the selection was awful, and several items were very worn, out of style, or even damaged. I felt like everything was XL, next common was the size Smalls, then Larges, ending with the elusive Mediums. Everything is organized by size, but the method is extremely confusing. The employee who was there was nice, but for half of my visit, I couldn't figure out if she was an employee or customer. After walking around trying to find size mediums, looking baffled I'm sure, I finally asked her if she worked there. I asked her where mediums were and she pointed in a vague direction. I eventually figured out that each rack was a different size, or at least I think? Other racks were sorted by color. Maybe eye catching but not practical. When I asked if they had any size 6 shoes, she acted like I was a unicorn with two heads and told me they never ever got a size 6 in. (I've never had trouble finding size 6 shoes, ever.) The store isn't super easy to get to, and make sure you bring some change for the parking meters. Avoid the morning and evening commutes because you can easily get stuck in Downtown Akron among all of its construction. I can recommend 5 local thrift stores that have better items, prices, and services than Blue. It's a good idea in theory, just very poorly executed. (Thinks it's because I'm a size medium with size 6 feet? )

I hate Kohl's, doesn't matter what location I go to, they're all the same. Cluttered, confusing,…read moreover crowded, frustrating,etc... I maybe shop at one once or twice a year due to wedding registries but otherwise avoid them at all cost. I have had to deal with customer service, they are way nicer than the cashiers at the front of the store! I have also had this displeasure of using their wedding registry kiosk which only printed 1/2 of the list & in such small print that it was difficult to tell one item description from another. I find Kohl's to be way over priced an am always frustrated that 98% of the time- I can find the exact or very similar item elsewhere for half the price.I absolutely hated my visit on 12/01/2013! My husband & I had to search the store for a good 20 mins to find Vera Wang towels for a registry- would've been nice if the brand name was labeled above the display instead of wasting so much time trying to find them. Then you had to unfold all the towels, etc to make sure the barcode was the correct item instead of having prices clearly posted on the display like most stores. And of course, while you're trying to do this- there's so many people in their teeny tiny ales that I gave up. The easy solution is to shop online but you can't use the 15% off coupon they provide with your registry on-line, yet another extremely annoying characteristic!

They have combine the checkout lines and the return lines and the Amazon return line all in one…read morewhich makes for very long lines every time you go. I will not go to this location in the future. Also they don't carry much cotton clothing anymore.
