Goodwill Lawrence

Saturday hours 10am - 8pm. Bull! Was there at 745pm to drop off some donations and the place was locked up tighter then fort Knox with the lights still on inside the building. Several people were there to shop and found it locked up as well. Very disappointing.

Goodwill has a nice system of donating goods. The employees are friendly and helpful. It's annoying when people behind you get out of their cars and start hauling their stuff in, clogs things up. People have zero patience. You'll find a good selection of clothing (according to my wife 😄) and their prices are reasonable. Plenty of books to choose from. The only down side is the bathroom is closed. Hard on us old guys. Changing rooms are closed as well.

The worst Goodwill I’ve ever been to…I really wish Lawrence had more thrift stores, but this is about it. I’ve been to some bad ones but…yikes. Small issues: the selection is small, it’s very dirty, and the parking lot is a nightmare to get in and out of. Bigger issues: the items are ridiculously priced (I could purchase new items on clearance for the cost they charge!), the donations are almost all poor-quality, worn down, stained, etc., and the hours seem to be arbitrary…? Two out of the four times I have visited, the doors have been locked despite it being within the operating hours posted online and on their door. Even with pulling on the door, peering inside, and knocking, no one has offered to unlock the entrance…so weird and sketchy. And it’s not like I am trying to walk in at the last minute. Today I arrived 30 minutes before closing, peered inside and saw people…yet the door was locked and I ended up having to turn around and leave after being ignored by the folks inside. On a positive note: I will say I’ve had good experiences dropping off donations! The drive-through was efficient and the employees facilitating were helpful and nice. But shopping here? I can’t recommend it. With all of the college students, Lawrence ought to have good thrift store options. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend stopping by unless you’re just donating. And honestly, there’s probably better places to donate your items, since the prices here don’t help people who need cost-effective options.

Almost all items are donated to this store, and prices are outrageous !!!! I support Goodwill stores, but not this one. I had a full basket of items like always when i visit. I always spend at least a Hundred dollars. Not at this store, didn't even have a working bathroom for the public to use !!!!! I left my basket and walked out. Should have gone to Leavenworth Goodwill instead. Much nicer employees and a restroom for shoppers.
