Medina Goodwill Review…read more Medina Goodwill is always a delight to visit! The store is consistently full of merchandise, well-lit, and easy to navigate. Parking is convenient up the hill, and once you get the hang of the traffic flow, getting in and out is simple. As an art junk journaler who creates handmade books and Bible devotionals, this has become one of my favorite places for inspiration. I always find unique art supplies, craft materials, and new ideas. Their book section is huge--I rarely leave without a handful of great finds for just a few dollars. One day, I even stopped in when all the children's books were free! I also keep an eye out for storage containers and baskets, and I can almost always find one or two perfect pieces. They offer a small rewards system linked to your phone number, which is a nice bonus. What truly adds to the experience is the staff. The employees--many of them young--are always friendly, patient, and consistently kind in every interaction. They're quick to offer assistance and make the shopping experience even better. My favorite part of the store is the craft area--everything is color-coded, making it incredibly easy to browse. They also set up seasonal holiday sections, which I love. Beyond that, the store carries clothing for all ages, tools, wall art, and an ever-changing variety of furnishings and home goods. Always organized, always stocked, and always a winner in my book!

Amazing selections of everything! Very clean well organized store with different sections of…read moremerchandise. Best kept secret in Akron. I have lived here for years and just went inside recently even though I have donated there for years. What an amazing surprise. Love it.

The American Cancer Society Discovery Shop is one of my regular thrift store stops. Located in a…read morestrip of shops on W. Market you will find one of the nicest upscale thrift stores. The shop is medium sized, nowhere near some of the big stores, but what you will find is really high quality items at a great price. The Discovery Shop has a nice if not huge selection of clothes, they have just recently expanded the men's area in the back to allow for more variety. Most of the items are high end and usually very current. Where the Discovery Shop really shines is the selection of art, decor and interesting items. It seems that they get more upscale donations then most thrift stores, plus they are raising money for a great cause. Other items include books, media, all kinds of kitchenware, plates, glasses and jewelry. Prices are reasonable, what makes it even better is that they have a 50% discount color every week and the last weekend of each month the entire store is 50% off. Over the years I have found some really nice sports coats and a number of carved wood items at the Discovery Shop. Well worth a stop to check out if you are looking for some great items at good prices, plus it is great to support the American Cancer Society. I also want to shout out the volunteers at the Discovery Shop, they are always friendly and helpful and the store is well set up, organized and attractive.

Their selection of wood is nearly non-existent unless you want garbage trim. However, they definitely have a better selection of used tools than other Restore stores. Their selection of knickknacks is also probably the best and it's actually organized well. It's definitely worth a trip for things other than wood. But for wood? Forget about it! They also have some furniture or whatever. Isn't furniture so boring?

Big thrift store with good selection of clothes, decent amount of other items. Prices are OK,…read morealthough the new pricing system as of late 2025 can be a bit confusing. The people working there are friendly and helpful, although it seems to be a bit understaffed. The Fairlawn Salvation Army thrift store used to be one of my favorites, then they eliminated some of the discount colors and then went to a system with most of the clothes being priced according to what they are, i.e. pants and shirts are $4.99 and there is one color that is half price (although on Wednesdays everything except one color are half price). On my most recent visit they have backtracked a bit so that most of the brick a brack and shoes are individually priced. There are still some good values, however the selection seems to be not as good and it can be confusing what certain things cost. The advantage of the current system is that if you find a high quality piece of clothing you do get it for a good price. The non-clothing selection has definitely decreased, the selection is limited and there are not a lot of interesting items. In the past I have found some really nice items, but now it seems like most of the stuff is nothing really special. Overall a pretty good thrift store, but not worth a trip just for thus store.

The store was well organized; however they have tags with different colors and where I'm from those colors tend to coordinate with daily sales so I asked a lady who worked there what they meant and she said usually they have daily sales but everything was 50% off today and I even clarified "only holiday stuff?" And she responded the whole store so I was all gongho, filling my hands with shirts and unnecessary holiday decor cuz everything is so cheap, only to get to the register and I hear everyone in line complaining about what the signs posted all over the store states. Apparently last week if you spent $50, they sent you a coupon for 50% off and you would have to know that in order to understand there is no sale whatsoever unless you have that coupon. So why not take the dumb signs down? What a headache for everyone. Also, maybe educate your employees because they also do not understand. Sincerely, a customer who is unimpressed with this experience and probably will skip next time we're in town.
