My friend & I had an hour to spare before she needed to bring me to the airport & she wanted to…read morestop by this store. I was amazed @ how organized it looked upon entering. Their clothes are separated by their color (love this!). Of course they have size dividers on the clothing racks. Clothes were in pretty good condition & I found that their prices were reasonable unlike another common thrift store in town. They even have dressing rooms! Only problem I found with their dressing rooms is there is no bench to sit down on if needed nor anyplace to set your purse. I only found 3 posts to hang clothes on but unfortunately others had left their unwanted items on them. I did find a rack outside the dressing room to hang your clothes on that don't fit/you don't like. I had to use the bathroom while there & found the ladies room clean & they even had more than one stall. There was two water fountains outside of the bathrooms & one had a filter water option so if you happen to bring in your water bottle you can fill it up with filtered water. I wish on their shoe racks that they had the sizes on the shelves & their shoes organized by their size. I found an expensive pair of dress pants for only $5.00! I also found a large selection of crafting scissors & bought a couple of them to use with a scrape book that I want to put together. There was no line when I went to check out. The cashier was nice. The store didn't have a strong smell of air freshener like some other thrift stores have. I didn't feel gross after shopping here. I'll definitely want to stop in here again next time I'm in town visiting my friend. I was very impressed. :-)

The selection of clothes at this particular location is pretty good. The staff working when I…read moreentered said hi and welcome in. Like every thrift store, some things are over priced, but you can find some hidden treasures. Red is the color of the week and I only saw 1 red tag. The store is very clean and well organized, it's not crammed like some of their other locations. It's newer so the bathrooms are also clean and nice. It's worth a stop.

The hard goods prices in this store are absolutely ridiculous; this store has become a joke. For…read moremany items, you may as well buy them new. Dollar Tree items are priced at $3.99+ (come on, we all know the the Greenbriar label is Dollar Tree). Decorative items are priced higher than at Ross or Home Goods. Hobby Lobby items (which you can buy at HL for 50% off one week out of every month) are priced a few dollars less than the original HL price. Craft items are laughable, sometimes priced for pennies less than retail. Worn out name brand sneakers are priced at $24.99. Small items that used to be .49 or .99 now start at $3.99. They advertise Thursdays as their $1 Day, yet pull most of the decent items on Tuesday, leaving very few items for $1 Day. (Yes, I have watched them do this. I used to donate and shop there frequently. Now I stop in once a month, if at all. And I no longer donate there...there's no "good will" in the store and I understand why many people call it Greedwill.

Tucked away in a small business park off of Tangerine. Hours are limited so check before you go…read more There's a bit of a clothing section, appeared to be mostly for women, with name brands & items that are generally of better quality than your run of the mill thrift chains. Service is alright. Glass & tableware aplenty. Some collectibles & household items. I found an old train case for $12 & on a different trip, a lamp for under $15. Like all thrift stores, prices are cheaper than buying new. Not a big store. The best part is that the proceeds go to Marana Health Care. Nice that it's local!

Nice, friendly staff. The problem is not "hit or miss" ; the problem is just "miss or miss." The…read morestore does not have much inventory. I see lots of stuff continually being dropped off, but it seems never to make it to the floor. Perhaps they sell their donations to other thrift stores? The lack of inventory or stuff on the floor makes it an "OK" thrift store if you live nearby but not worth traveling to if you live more than a few miles away. Many empty shelves and floor space.

Not a friendly place, zero stars is warranted there. And, after 15 years of donating to Goodwill,…read moreit is now a place I'll never go back to-ever. On Saturday Nov. 16, 2019, went there about 4pm and started unloading donations since no one came out. Halfway done, a fat old black man emerged and notified me "we don't take that". I asked what and he just said "tires". I told him that I wouldn't leave the other items and he just ignored me and walked away like he couldn't care less. I had quit donating to the greedy salvation army when they started picking and choosing what they could sell quickly, now Goodwill gets fired. I'll throw it in the trash before I'll give anything to either of them. Just so you know, I've given thousands of dollars to your Goodwill in the past, and yes, you could resell those items for profits. I get the idea you have to throw out some things and pay dump fees, but you're just greedy now. You might first try being polite there at Thornydale Goodwill, since you are being paid to be there. Second, you can take tires, it won't kill you or make you go bankrupt, especially with the amount of donations you get.

They have laundry services, showers, restrooms, kitchen and outdoor garden for the guest to use while they stay there temporarily. You can gather a group of volunteers to cook dinner for the women that stay over night (40+). My friends and I attended a Kitchen Orientation recently and we plan to make a monthly dinner for the guest that stay over night. If you are unable to cook the dinner you can always have food delivered. You may also deliver donations such as: new womens underwear, socks, gently used clothing, sneaker/walking shoes, pack-backs, luggage, pet supplies (dog/cat/rabbit food, treats leashes, harness, pet toys, cat litter,etc.). They are in need of blankets, warm weather clothing and size 5/6 walking shoes. You may also make donations online or purchase items from their Amazon Wish list. They do provide donation receipt (if you need one)
