They redid their pricing; which was previously by type and now by item. The tags talk about returns, but the store is final sale.

Every time-- EVERY TIME-- I've been in a dressing room, there are price tags lying on the floor. They need an employee checking what people are bringing into the dressing rooms. Why would I donate here knowing that way too many people are just strolling on out with whatever they want?

Had an hour to kill so swung through the Goodwill while visiting Boulder to see what they had!…read more The organization of the clothes is very different than any other Goodwill I've been to: everything was on circular hanging racks. The rack shape made it hard to swipe through clothes, or even get a cart around the store. I've never seen a store not have rows of straight racks...! The selection here is VERY Colorado. As someone visiting from out of state, I loved seeing the differences: lots of Colombia, Duluth Trading Co, etc. so some great brand finds can be had here. Lots of college student clothes and CU gear here too. They had just put out Halloween costumes and decor so that took over a good amount of the store, but you could still navigate it decently. I'm SO sad that most Goodwills - including this one - have moved away from dressing rooms. It forces people to try things on out in the open in front of the mirrors. Service at the counter was friendly and quick: I found a sweatshirt and two tops that came home with me!

This review is specifically for the CHaRM (Center for Hard to Recycle Materials) center that we…read morevisited today but I have used other parts of their system in the past too. We had several pieces of tech accessories to dispose of, outdated and mostly not working either. They were taking up space we needed to clear. We took them out to this facility, near several other facilities they operate. Good website with lots of directions and maps and fee scale. It was easy to find, followed directions out there and turned out to be easier than expected, early on a weekday. There is a fee for entering but only $3.00 and it is added to your bill if you have to pay any fees for what you bring in. We took several pieces for which there was a fee but it is very reasonable at $0.59 per pound and they do not weigh any of the accessory cables. Our pile of an old printer, a flat bed scanner and a wireless router came to only 24 pounds. We will be back another time with a few things that need their hard drives erased beforehand and I believe most of these devices are free to recycle. I will also use the Hazardous Household Recycle location again which I have used more frequently in the past for old paints and yard and household chemicals that are outdated, etc. That location is a block north of this one. It's nice to have a local community facility that will responsibly dispose of these objects. They also provide an option for bulk items, like cardboard, block rigid foam, scrap metal etc. A lot of those are free also. I suspect they are pretty busy on Saturdays and they are not open on Sundays. Better than sending this stuff to a landfill and will accommodate things than cannot go out in curbside residential recycling. We have done the curbside for decades, as long as it has existed in Boulder.

I'm a huge fan of Eco-Cycle and all they do to support our beautiful community. From recycling and…read morecomposting to presence at local events they always have their best foot forward. I've actually had the pleasure to be on the "green team" at Hanuman Yoga Festival for a couple of years as a volunteer. They educated us in a helpful and encouraging way so we could assist event attendees in properly compost, recycle, and discard with care. Contained within it's substantial walls is CHaRM (Center for Hard-to -recycle materials). Here you can properly hand off anything from a fax machine, to paint, to a yoga mat! The cost is often determined by weight so you can feel good letting go of those challenging items without breaking the bank or feeling bad putting it in the regular garbage. Every interaction I have had at their facility or volunteering under their guidance has been a pleasure. I look forward to doing some spring cleaning and visiting Eco-Cycle with items that aren't quite fit for donation.

Be that through my wallet or through making donations. Friends have had great experiences consigning items in the upstairs portion, while I've enjoyed shopping in the upstairs portion. There's always furniture, art, glassware and more. I picked up some lovely 1950's milk glass spice bottles in the past which I'm still enjoying using. The downstairs part is the "thrift store". Don't let the size fool you. There is lots of good stuff down here. From purses, to shoes, to jewelry and books, they really have a great selection. If you donate they give you a receipt and a coupon good towards your next purchase. Score! I highly recommend checking this place out.

It was super snowy out and I noted there were no donations left at the door. There was also a sign that said to knock (as the doorbell is out of order) to ensure that you leave your donations with a staff member. No prob! A few knocks later a nice woman came out to retrieve my donation and offer me a receipt. And off I was to my next errand. On other occasions I've perused their aisles for nearly an hour. There is truly a lot to look at. I picked up a stellar pair of like new Levi's jeans (for only $8) and am now a huge Levi's fan. During Halloween and Christmas their offerings are unmatched. They do a stellar job of putting everything out neatly and at fair prices. They also have events from time to time, one of which I won two $5 vouchers (they are so cute and have prarie dogs on them!). Excite to make another donation soon. Three cheers for spring cleaning!

It's rather embarrassing to admit that I frequent this store more than weekly (don't even bother…read moreasking, I won't disclose the number of visits). Over the past year I've gotten to know at least one person in each department. Many have been with King Soopers for over 10 years, some at this very location for the whole 10+ years. Everyone is very prideful of their job, friendly, and fun to have a chat with. There's always a display at customer service for the Friday Free item (yes, you read correctly, each Friday King Soopers announces one product for free that you can load via logging into their website or app. Sometimes it's cat treats, sometimes it's mashed potatoes, most recently it was a candle - you never know). The Cheese department features small cuts of lots of fine cheese so go ahead and splurge on a small chunk before going for the whole shebang. There's an awesome variety of cracker and hummus to boot! The produce department boasts a great selection of organics as well as conventional. Sometimes they even have a section for Misfits (those that may have a little bruise or otherwise be considered imperfect) at a discount. Great way to stock up on some things - particularly if you are a juicer like me. The clearance racks (yes, there is more than one) are located near the restroom and are typically overflowing with bakery items, flowers/plants and some odds and ends from grocery (vitamins, canned goods, it varies). More often than not things are in perfect condition and I've always seen everything to be in date (i.e. not expired or even close to expiry). The meat department often features samples of sausage, salmon and other goods. While they don't sell suet in the meat case you can call ahead and request that they hold some fat aside for you from their morning cuttings (it's getting cold out, those wild birds need their suet!). The dairy department has often surprised me with a great selection of products I'd typically only expect to find at Whole Foods (Malk, Vegan cheeses, etc.). Whatever your shopping needs I definitely recommend this store. Let them know what you think after your visit and earn 50 points towards gas savings in the King Soopers app by completing a visit survey (the invite will be on your receipt). Oh, and last but certainly not least - check the back of that receipt! There's a FREE Yoga class at the Yoga Loft just a few steps away from the store.

But the experience I had last week is what is prompting me to write this review. It wasn't necessarily king soopers but they allowed it so I do hold them somewhat accountable. The community food share was our front and the man who was very aggressively pushing people to buy groceries. I found it so inappropriate it took a lot to not say something to him and the people with him. Right now so many people are struggling to put food on their own tables. Food, rent, gas, cars, utilities and so many more things have increased but you know what hasn't? Pay. He reminded me of a panhandler getting upset that you don't give them money. I imagine I was not the only person completely appalled by him.
