For the most part it is good place to find things. But sometimes their stuff is so overpriced. Like the stuff they get from target is majorly overpriced. I am a hard core target shopper and I know their clearance prices and they're way cheaper at target on clearance then at goodwill. For instance I found a purse at target on clearance for 10.99 & when they transferred it to goodwill They put it for 19.99 when the purse only cost 24.99 new. Their managers need to start checking target's prices first. read more

This location would have to be one of my favorite places to go. This Goodwill has so much to offer. They have tons of unique pieces. They also have plenty of vintage clothing items. The racks here are color coded as well which helps a lot. Furniture and antique are also something you can find here at this Goodwill. I come here about every two weeks and it never disappoints. The service is good but the only thing i'd say is sometimes they are rude. Other then that everything is fine. Throughout the week there is a fifty percent off deal on the color of the week. The color changes every week. It sometimes is a bit crowded, but mostly on the weekends. If you want to get some steals and cheap items than this Goodwill is definitely for you. Be prepared to spend because once you start theres no going back. read more

Went there to drop off bags of clothes n shoes today. Theres a sign for drop offs to turn right but after that you have to use your own judgment on where or how to drive in and park because the cones are placed in a awkward way, so confusing and then the guy that is there is confused himself and didn't even help me unload.. the 2 stars is for having a place to drop my items off. Bad service. read more

Overpriced, Sara tags everything so expensive, toys = $30 dlls, small fake plants $ 20 dlls. Used Dollar tree item for $2 dlls. You can buy it for$ 1 dll brand new. Bad management, that place is almost empty now . read more

Great big space, lots of furniture options, and a friendly staff. It's often clean and organized (which isn't always the case for a Goodwill) read more

We were going to shop here and called but also needed to use the restroom. Debra answered and cut us off saying "no, restrooms are closed to the public." We then asked another question, but she hung up on us. VERY RUDE! SO MUCH FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE! Definitely not going to shop here if your going to treat your customers like that. VERY FURIOUS! How can someone just hang up on someone! Are you having a bad day? Work somewhere else! Learn how to communicate properly!! read more

Look online before you buy I suggest you spend a few more bucks at the store then buying something that's been used. Always look and ask because they are just blindly pricing when you want to be number one you just doodle a price as I was told by someone working there who agreed with me that pricing has gone up because managers want to be top store quota bs... read more

I love thrift shopping because of the thrill of finding something unexpected. Sure, you can go to the mall and pay an arm and a leg, but why? I know people might think it's kind of gross to wear something secondhand or buy things preloved, but it's similar to buying stuff that people try on in the fitting room. Where can you buy designer or stuff that they simply don't make anymore at the fraction of the price? Their mission statement: Goodwill Industries International enhances the dignity and quality of life of individuals, families and communities by eliminating barriers to opportunity and helping people in need reach their fullest potential through the power of work. They do not discriminate when it comes to hiring workers and the workers here are extremely friendly. I have found countless items here that were amazing finds. They replenish their stock everyday. Goodwill also gets donations from Target. I've found countless items from Target especially their clothing designer series. Each week there is a different color starting on Friday. You can find the color by looking at signs or waiting for the intercom. The color is located somewhere on the garment with a tag sticking out. If you can't differentiate the color, ask a worker. They have three dressing rooms for each gender, the women's is located on the right when you walk in, and the men's on the left side. There's a limit of 6 items you can bring in. Sometimes there's a wait, and if you can't wait, they have mirrors on the side. This Goodwill also accepts donations and I have donated to Goodwill, but just never in store. It's on my to do list. Like any store, it's hit or miss, but I've found mostly hits and I will continue to come back and support Goodwill and their mission. read more

Great Place, well organized and lots of good stuff to get here! I have been coming to this Goodwill to drop things off I don't use or need anymore for several years now. The saying "One persons trash is another persons treasure" is so true. Especially these past several years with how the suffering economy a lot of families and individuals have had a tough time getting just the essentials. Shopping at the goodwill allows for people to purchase items at a very significant discount. Items here are in good condition and some that are still in the original box and new. My friend invited me to her Junk Exchange and I too started doing my own Junk Exchange at my house about twice a year during the spring and another towards the end of the year. I send out a invite to all my friends & family to go through their house and de-clutter. They bring the items to the house and drop off. They can look through stuff that other people brought over and take what they like. Anything thats left behind at the end of the day I haul over to the Goodwill. Its a great way to clean out your house of clutter. Having just finished my year end Osoji (cleaning) I had a lot of stuff to take over. I have one more load to take and I will be done for the year. Please think twice about throwing something in the trash. Put it aside and make a sections in your closet or garage for taking to a drop off location. I'm certain that someone out there will enjoy the things you have dropped off and that will put a smile on your face. This is a another way to pay it forward goodness! read more

OMG, I just had a major catastrophe go down. Tonight is the yelp 90's party, and I ebayed some overalls a few weeks ago. I washed them this morning, and then tried them on a few hours ago. I couldn't even get them on. They were like, kids overalls. OMG, I'm in trouble now!!! So, I drove over here to this goodwill because I read another review that said it was well organized, and that's exactly what I needed in this time crunch. Well hallelujah this store is HUGE and it IS well organized. I started going thru the jeans and then I realized, there was an ENTIRE OVERALL SECTION! YAYAYAYAY!!!! Needless to say, I was able to take a deep breath and know i'll be there tonight rockin' the gear. And, Um, there's a security guard that works here. And it's next to a water store that accepts WIC. You get the idea... read more

I've been on a thrift store high lately. I got 4 dresses, a pair of jeans and 2 shirts all 4 under $30!!! The dresses range from Express and Forever 21, jeans were abercrombie and the shirts where forever 21 and abercrombie. The dresses looked all brand new. . .some even still had the original tags on them. My cousin even found a marc jacobs button down blouse which was totally cute for $3 dollars. Of course u have 2 ravage thru the countless racks of clothes, but @ least its color coded! There were a few name brands. . .like banana republic, lucky jeans, express, F21, DKNY. . . The money u spend in Goodwill goes to help out the community, which is a great benefit! it was just a fun adventure! read more

The books were so well organized. I thought I was in a bookstore for a quick minute. Just a quick minute. The household area was a mess, BUT such a beautiful disaster. Hidden gems were definitely awaiting to be discovered. To my surprise, I found a brand new in the box hibachi grill. Awesome. For just $9.99. The previous day I was at Target and these things were on sale for $14 from the original $20. I totally scored here. I also came out with a gold rim bangle at 50% off because it was orange tag day. read more

I am a true bargain shopper. If you take the time to look for bargains, you will find them. I bought a Calvin Klein suit with pants for $20 and it fit me perfectly. Only thing I had to do with get it dry-cleaned. Ask the employees for the color tag of the day which will be 50% off. read more

They have a wide selections and many cute dresses and tops! The staffs are nice and it's a huge Goodwill store. Lots of size small. I will definitely come back to shop more. read more

This is Goodwill isn't in the best of areas but they have a wide selection of products to choose from. This is also one of the most clean and organized Goodwills I've been too. I came here for some ideas for a costume for a Derelicte party and I left with something else entirely, a board game. But not just any board game, I found Masterpiece: The Art Auction Game. This game hasn't been produced by Parker Brothers (now Hasbro) for years and I found it here brand new and still in its original plastic wrap for only four bucks! Ah happiness. Good: Wide selection of products, clean and organized facility, and friendly staff. Bad: The neighborhood could be better but its not that bad. Final: Not so bad of a place to go to...because I found Masterpiece! read more

The Target goods sold here and nearly the same price as the Target store itself. Considering these items have been repackaged, or written on directly for pricing (why?), the prices should reflect these flaws. read more

This goodwill location is huge. However, unlike the beach and Lincoln location, I feel like this location doesn't put out a much product besides clothes. They have a massive section of women's clothing. They have a section for men. However the mens shoes section is small. They are also big enough to sell furniture. read more

Huge selection of donated goods, was able to purchase some sweet shirts that I can definitely wear. The shirt seems pretty clean and it was only $3! Will definitely return :) read more

this particular goodwill is in a shoddy area; which would explain the security guard standing by the automatic doors. i think the building next to it has been boarded up for over a year now. formerly a toys r us? anyway, this place is nasty party dress HEAVEN. big shoulders, sequins, gold lame... you name it! everytime i visit there's always a huge selection of dresses. the organization is a little off and the staff isn't very friendly, but i always seem to leave this one with an armload of clothes. :x record selection is also nice! read more

Pretty good selection of housewares so I was happy! Bought a few planters and was on my way! read more

I was extremely skeptical about checking this location out. I am an avid thrifter and spend endless hours at goodwills weekly looking for hidden gems to add to my closet. I love the adams one but after reading the reviews for this location decided I had to check it out to see what the hype was about. I used to live up the street from there so very familiar with the unpleasant neighborhood hence the skepticism. But to my surprise this location had some pretty RAD stuff. The only issues I have with it is it's more expensive than the other good wills I go to. It's HUGE I spent 3 hours and only got through 2/3rds of the store. Will definitely go back soOn. Adams location in Huntington Beach still blows this one away though clothing wise read more

I do a lot of repurposing & make industrial steampunk lamps & theres a lot of misc. stuff here to enhance my projects. Clean store,nice staff & great clothing as well. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was due to pricing. Great on some stuff,other items not so much. Yet I always seem to find that one if a kind item so..... I give it a solid 4 stars.... read more

Very very expensive , manager should fire new employees, especially Sara , she is overpricing all the household items, if they don't sell it she will keep them for sure, bad for economy, bad for manager I hope they close that expensive store soon! read more

terrible workers. i got cut in "line" for the fitting room by two rats!! I asked for the dressing room to be open there is no line bye!! read more

Goodwill - Thrift Stores Near Me - Garden Grove, California

See all

I have never been so insulted when making a donation. Nobody offered to help me or give direction as to where to place donation. When he finally did come out I had two items that were styrofoam and was rudely told that he couldn't take them and I would need to "figure it out" myself. Like I was trying to "pull one over". Really, be polite and explain and I would have understood. Then ask "want a receipt". No manners, no hello, no thank you, nothing but a BAD attitude. Sorry Goodwill but there are lots of other places I will donate before I step foot near your store again. read more

This Goodwill truly outshines in the way it organizes. If you've been to the Goodwill on Lincoln you know what I'm talking about. Now when it comes to the clothes, I must say the men's section seems a bit dwindled compared to the women's section. As for the shoes, they're about as f*****-up as the one on Lincoln. This place does have furniture, though being the youngster that I am, I cannot give you my opinion on that. The only thing that I can say is they might have more and that it is more organized than other Goodwill's. I've been here a number of times and sometimes I ask myself, why do I even come here. I really can't find anything at this store. It's a pity really, such spacious place, but empty inside (kinda like me..no heart- 21 Savage...21 21 21). If you've been to a savers then you've probably had better grabs... You Thrift fiends know what I'm talking about. read more

Staff doesn't really acknowledge you but it is very easy to drop off donations.

Line of 20 people, 1 person at checkout for 30 minutes, other person walked away never came back, Ridiculous

I'm giving this goodwill a 4 star rating because it's really clean but there are items that are clearly used and not in the best condition but are overpriced. Case in point a Betsey Johnson crossbody for $30. The service is quick especially when you need fitting room assistance or have questions. They have a lot of volunteers one duty. What I like about this goodwill and I say this as person that only shops 2nd hand, is that they carry brand new Target merchandise. A lot of which still has tags attached. From purses to clothes to shoes home essentials you can tell its brand New. And for the price it's reasonable. read more

Talk about over priced! I think they have some nerve selling items that were clearanced at Target but for more than Target had them marked for! These items still have the Target clearance tags on them and some were even marked SALVAGED but the Goodwill price was MORE! Seriously??? I don't care if its new in the box, if it's marked with a red Target clearance tag for $6.98 and you are selling it for $12, I think that's ridiculous. At least undercut Target's clearance price or remove the previous price tags, geez! You get these things donated! This is one store I won't be back to. read more

This place is a rip off! They Overprice their item on everything. They have a table and chair set selling at $159.00. I found the exact same one at Target for only $129.00 brand spanking new!! This place is a Badwill!!!!!! read more

I have to say, I didn't find one single thing that I'd even remotely consider buying at this Goodwill. Maybe I went on a bad day? It was organized nicely and I didn't interact with any of the staff so I can't say anything about that. In my opinion, anything that wasn't dated was overpriced. I'm not paying $10 for a dress or $20 for a blazer at a GOODWILL. Not happening! read more

Yikes!! I'm new to the area and so I just had to check out the nearby thrifts! I was excited for this one cause the reviews were pretty good, but I've got to say I'm quite disappointed. Very slow service, no staff in sight to operate the changing rooms, and expensive prices for some not so expensive clothes (I bought a black long sleeve tee for 7 dollars... I thought it was going to be 3 at most...) two stars though because clothing was organized nicely and easy to find. Very disappointed though read more

My daughter loves this store but unfortunately when we visited here On 09/04 we ran into a very rude cashier around 315 pm. She was an elderly lady. Before we made a purchase we ask to see if we can return some previous items we purchased and she responded they don't do returns or exchanges. Instead of leaving it at thats she starts mocking my daughter by saying Thats what dressing rooms are for. I Just Ieft it at that. Reason we didn't use the fitting rooms with those items is because at the time workers wouldn't let us use it because store was about to close. After we purchased the other items my daughter informed me in the car that the cashier was giving her a hard time of what she was purchasing like she never bought anything in her life and my daughter is 18 years of age, I wasn't around because I return an item I didn't want. Worst of all we were missing two items that she wanted and didn't realize it till we got home. If that cashier focusing on her job more than being concern with issues that wasn't even brought to her attention. read more

This was probably the most organized Goodwill I have ever gone into. Despite the parking lot being a bit scary [the whole area is actually], this is a nice shop once you get inside. If you're going to Goodwill for the Target items, this one was packed with them. But besides that I didn't really find anything I went too gaga over. Nothing vintagey at all which is a bummer when you're thrifting. Might have something to do with the area though and the donations that might be coming into the store. read more

Could be a little nicer but it is a goodwill store not bad have a good selection of stuff

This is one of the worst goodwill I've ever been to. They have no customer sevice at all. I went there with two toddlers and I put one inside the shopping cart sitting down...I got scolded a few times that I need to take him out of there...how in the world does someone with twins manage here? They're stuff is way way over priced. A pair of pants for 1.99 (not on sale) but a pair of kids socks 3.99....what in the world???? I have donated SO many items to this goodwill and I feel sad when I come in and get mistreated. On almost all the items I got from the bins, the cashier lady told me the price was higher than what is marked. Seriously? I can't I just can't ...... read more

4 stars for a goodwill? Yea, I know it's a store full of crap people do not want... but the 4 stars are for their staff. Been here a few times, usually stroll in when I am killing some time... I have always had great experience with their employees. Friendly, helpful, polite... bravo... read more

I found great items here and also lots of antique items as well! The store is big but unorganized items are all over the place, they did to clean up the store its dirty, smells, and most of all the items are very pricey for a thrift store! The only reason I am giving them five stars is because of the items I found. read more

As an avid vinyl collector, I was surprised to stumble upon a few hidden gems when I came to this location. Rather than your typical christmas holiday records along with various albums from Barbara Streisand and John Conlee's discography, I managed to get my hands on a self-titled Prince album record along with a few other selections. Ended up paying about 6-7 bucks and walked out with over 150 dollars worth of goods. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, so it made the overall experience a positive one. This location is incredibly organized considering the size of the given space. Will I be returning? Absolutely. I only pray that I will be able to get my hands on another gold mine. read more
