Goodwill Industries

They have a great selection of skirts, shirts and jackets. Sometimes you can score on some great shoes too. A little pricey for used clothes, but not much is over $ 5. The staff is always super nice and the place is usually pretty clean.

I’ve found some really nice clothes here, mostly dresses and sweaters, but some other stuff too.

Clean. Well organized. Can be a little picked over at times. Welcome to a collegetown.

The sparse selection doesn’t justify the trip out here. I’ve been to other Goodwill locations where I could equip an entire kitchen. There are very few small appliances worth having on the shelf. Try the flea market east of the loop for a better variety.

The store is like any other goodwill out there, there is a wide selection of clothes and small selections of everything else. Its the prices of things that I’m a fan of. My roommate and I just moved into an unfurnished apartment and neither of us had any furniture so we decided to go check this place out. We wound up finding a sofa that was priced at $ 15.75 and a coffee table for $ 12.75. The coffee table is made of solid wood with a glass table top and the sofa is comfortable and didn’t have any major tears of damages on it.

The stars are mainly for their prices. For the size of this Goodwill, I feel like they could fit a lot more selection in there. It’s pretty sprawled out and doesn’t have the packed-​full feeling that all the other Goodwill’s I’ve been to have. Some people may prefer that, but I don’t. We all know Denton, especially the University strip, is littered with resale/​consignment/​thrift stores. If you go to Family Thrift and other shops along the road, their electronics are far too overpriced. They have this strange price tier where items are either 14.44 or 7.77 or weird stuff like that. A George Foreman at most thrift stores I’ve been to in the area will cost you $ 14.44, but at Goodwill they range from $ 3.50-$ 8.00. It just seems to me that next to garage sales, Goodwill is the best place in town to find a bargain, it’s just a crapshoot as to whether you’ll find anything good.

I would only give it 3 stars, but I give it the 4^th for the gems you can usually find in the clothing, furniture and books section. We got a nice green pleather couch there for $ 30 and I also recently found a winter (I’m sure it’s fake) fur coat for $ 8. Their section of books is a b it scattered and you have to glance at all of the titles to find what you’re looking for, but there’s always something neat (example: Just bought a book on comparative education in various cultures throughout the world). They’re a bit more pricy than a regular thrift store, but it’s definitely worth taking a journey to.
