Better than many goodwill stores I've been to but honestly I'm not rushing out to return here…read moreanytime soon, I scoured the store and found only 3 items I wanted and nothing I couldn't live without, I spent $20. The prices were okay but the selection was picked over and disorganized. They had no high end clothing or handbags to speak of. Book selection was lacking. I'll admit I have high standards and specific tastes, this store didn't do much for me this week.

**Review for Donation Only** The donation process could not be easier with their contact-less drive…read morethrough lane. There's always someone ready to step out within seconds of arrival and it's always been a fast and convenient experience each time I've dropped off items. From what I can see outside the interior looks to be bright and clean and it's one of the newer Goodwill buildings in the city.

As far as donating- -don't expect them to lift a finger as…read moreyou unload your car, even when there's 10+ bags. -don't expect a thank you, no matter how many hundreds or thousands of dollars worth of items you've graciously donated. -you'll likely also have to search for an employee to even accept the items, while the donation bay is marked "open." -expect them to keep some of the items you've donated, if they find them valuable (I've seen that happen several times.) -if you ask for a receipt for documentation reasons, they'll send you off in search of one amongst their bins. Good cause but they've burned me one too many times. The ungrateful, unhelpful attitudes are extremely off putting. I'll be donating elsewhere from now on. Plenty of other options.

After grabbing lunch in Waunakee I was in the mood for some thrift shopping. I was surprised to…read moresee that Waunakee had a thrift store and decided to check this place out. It's not on the main drag like you might expect, but just off of it, making it easy to find and park. It has a bit of an odd layout but they have plenty of stuff, and it was all well organized. Great prices, too. The store was clean and the staff was friendly. I will absolutely be coming back whenever I'm in the area.

Madison seems to have 3 types of thrift stores. Goodwill, St Vinnies, and those run by churches…read moreand/or church ladies. This is the latter type, and they all seem to be very similar (Bethesda, Agrace, etc). Less crowds, traffic, anxiety, and clutter than Goodwill and St Vinnies, but also less selection. Check back regularly and you will find some treasures. For the most part the prices are fair. If I specifically need something, I start with Goodwill, because I have the best chance of browsing. But I dont always feel like stopping in Goodwill just to browse. Versus it can be very peaceful to stop in Boomerangs, or similar. I've probably been there a dozen times since they opened, and bought something 3 of the times. They have furniture, which not all thrift stores carry. The staff has always been helpful.

The Madison Reading Project has a mobile book mobile that they use to bring books to children for special events such as a recent bike giveaway held at the school I work at. Each child received a free book!! A few weeks later I received an email stating it was my turn to come to their store to shop for 25 books for my classroom at no cost! They do this to help teachers and specialists build up their classroom libraries to help foster a joy of reading and build literacy skills in children. They accept book donations, are always looking for volunteers and host fundraisers like the recent Ready to Wear fashion show where all clothing was made only of paper--no fabric. The Madison Reading Project is a great non profit to support!

Tried to donate three furniture pieces. Came 10 days ago to pick up and refused due to wet grass…read more(was dry). Called Michelle. Who said she would be out Monday to pick up, personally. She was a no-show. Called to find out she was off. Called main number Tuesday. Henry said they would pick up Wednesday. They showed up Wednesday an hour late, but I wasn't concerned because there was snow on the ground and I knew they would refuse again, legitimately. Called Michelle, she was told I would move the three pieces to my garage. That conversation never took place. Lots of communication issues here and I have wasted 10 days time.

This place needs some love and I am literally so sad I never checked this place out until recently…read more I came here looking for a couch and certainly left with one which I've included below. I'll say that you shouldn't go in with expectations hoping you'll find something same day. However, I've already been back more than once this week and I keep leaving with things I need! I got this couch for $100 and I feel lucky! One of the legs could use replacement for aesthetics but it is sturdy in its current state even if don't fix it. I also picked up a table (I'm using it as an end table) for $15 because it was missing 4 nuts to attach the top to the legs. It had a few scratches on the table top but a little sharpie fixed it. I went in again and found a nice circular mirror for $35. I've been super pleased with my finds. Things are constantly being added so if you love something that much, buy it! Not everything is a "deal" per say but you can find some good things here. Check out their Facebook page as they've been a little bit more active on adding some of the things they've been selling which got me into their actual store!

This is Middleton's historic cemetery where you'll find many of the original settlers. If you're…read moretraveling down Junction Road, the best access point is on Isaac Drive. It is well laid out and cared for, however, many of the old headstones are intermingled with the newer ones. The cemetery is on a hilly topography and many of the headstones are very ornate. The entire property is covered in rich lush ryegrass with no weeds. At the center of the property you'll find a building which has all the listings posted for everyone interred here. There's also a historical sign posted at the other end of the cemetery next to Mineral Point Road. If you don't mind the traffic next to the cemetery, there's still room enough for new interments. Informative photos here and on Google maps.
