Goodwill -Campbell

Decided to check out this Goodwill and noticed that they don’t have a lot of clothes for people that wear size small for men’s.
However, the employees here were very nice. I also noticed on their sign that they offer free certifications which was pretty cool.

I have been volunteering at this Goodwill for at least 6 years. Everyone at this Goodwill is very friendly especially my coworkers. I love to pull tags here and I love volunteering here because everyone is so nice and friendly.

I haven’t been inside their retail store yet, but I usually come here to donate and drop unwanted things off. The donation attendants are hit or miss. A few of them are friendly and okay, but I do periodically come across ones who are rude, unfriendly and unwilling to help.
They previously took used batteries, but sounds like they no longer do so.

The prices were much better than expected… we used to live by the Goodwill in Palo Alto and the prices were outrageous. However, the blankets were $ 20 here (we were looking for one to take to the beach.) That was no bueno but the clothes were reasonably priced, the store was clean and well organized.

I was dropping off stuff and didn’t realize that they’re already closed but I flashed Johnny my biggest pearly smile and he helped me unload my donation items. Johnny is the reason why I would come back to this Goodwill and will continue donating stuff to them. Five stars for Johnny!

Found some nice things here in my last trips. Prices seemed a lot better. Games, purses, collectables. A bunch of brand new in plastic wrap (factory-​sealed) Brita water pitcher filters for $ 3 each –cheapest price ever, as these are between $ 5 and $ 6 each online before tax (Goodwill doesn’t charge tax).
Continue to stop in when I’m in the neighborhood to see if they might have a Picasso or that elusive Beatles «Butcher» album ;-) Not likely, but ya never know!!! It’s all in the hunt, people!

wow, did they pay to remove my review? Bike policy sucks. Would rather see it stolen than provide a place to lock it up. Prices are way too high. Won’t darken any goodwill store again.

This review is in regards to dropping off donations at this location. Here at the location at 60 S. Tomas Aquino Rd. in Campbell, CA they are not very friendly, and the location seems to be under staffed as I have had to unload heavy boxes from my car by myself on several occasions. My husband visited one day and said he saw a man with a nice dresser in good condition who was turned away and was told they only accept things they can make money selling. I hoped this was not a trend at this store, so I sent my husband to the store today with a nice five drawer chest that had new paint and drawer pulls. It’s in perfect shape! They again turned him away and would not accept the donation. Per Goodwill’s website, this piece should have been accepted. I am disappointed that we were not able to donate this furniture piece and wanted to express my dissatisfaction with our local Goodwill donation center. It’s really sad when you come away from trying to do a charitable thing with a bad attitude.

They remodeled and reorganized the entire place. A huge improvement. When I walked in I was taken aback. The place no longer had that bad stench and it was super cool (as in they had the A/​C on); it was nice to walk in on a hot day.
Drop off guys who help in the back are a hit or miss. Some of them are friendly but some of them can be really cranky too. :(

Today is the Grand Re-​Opening of the Campbell Goodwill.
The store has been redone and looks fantastic!
I was there and checked it all out. unfortunately i did not buy a thing.
Maybe next time.

This review is only for the drop-​off donation guys in the back that work on Sundays. I have never physically been in the store (although, after reading the Unilocal reviews, maybe I should).
I’ve been dropping stuff off here every Sunday since I’m moving and those guys in the back are efficient and friendly! No pain dropping things off here.

I was recently invited to a 50’s theme party so I needed to get an outfit to gether. I found 50% of my outfit at the Goodwill.
I have to admit when I went shopping I actually bought a few other items that were not apart of my costume.
They actually have clothes with the orginal tags still on them. & eerything was very reasonable priced

We came here to donate our stuff. But they do not take canned food! But happily accepted the rest :)

Being part of the solution means that you not only can give to Goodwill that you can find AMAZING Deals at Goodwill I am ashamed at some of the previous reviews here. Maybe you didn’t look outside today but there is an economy in crisis and you are not entitled to purchase items on the cheap at Goodwill just because it is Goodwill.
That being said, I do agree there appears to be a little less customer service here and a surprisingly the cashiers are slow to pick up when there is a long arse line that needs to be moved.
Not to mention what the F*&^ is with the women’s changing rooms always needing Manuel or Todd or Somebody to open them, why isn’t someone stationed there… oh whoops I forgot this is a recession and even Goodwill had to cut back on staff.
Yes, Yes, you have a choice to shop at Target, Big Lots, even Dollar Tree but when you need something like luggage or even silverware Goodwill is a good place to try.
This is a small store but a great selection. I sincerely ask that when you give you may stop in sometime and buy something too.

FYI… i found a Sharks hoodie in the store but didn’t have the price on it. I went up to the counter and asked and one of the ladies that was going to ring me up said that the hoodie was 7 bucks but she asked the other lady that worked there just to confirm. She said it was 10 bucks because «IT WAS THE SHARKS SEASON.» 30% increase? WTF?
Buyer beware… whatever season it is and you find clothing of your favorite team. Please add 30% to the sticker price. They don’t mention it until you go up to the counter.

I came here to donate a few items over the weekend, and there was no one manning the donation station. I had to wander inside and yell out to see if anyone was around.
The guy who was around was pretty rude. One guy who was donating ahead of me wasn’t too happy about it and let the guy know. All the donation bins are outside and labeled, so if you don’t need a receipt for your donations then it’s not a big deal. Otherwise don’t expect to get any decent help.

Books for $ 1.00? Yes, please! I also happened to pick up two like new Banana Republic sweaters, a J Crew shirt, some Alberto Makali jeans and a Joe’s Jeans jacket! I kid you not– this place rivals Crossroads.
Make sure you find out when the store has it’s half off specials… I got all of the above mentioned items for less than $ 20 (total!).

I used to go here a lot. Then they stopped the Saturday 50% sale and I just could not see paying $ 7.99 and $ 8.99 for used clothes. They put up a lot of stained clothing items as well. I would not dare buy any cooking or eating items but they have a lot of books.
And it smells.
I have not been back for a year.

I came her searching for 80’s clothing. They had some stuff but not much that was 80’s looking. I was a bit bummed! Also they barely had any jewelry at all! The prices were good starting off at $ 3.00 an item but stuff looked more 20^th century. It also seemed really messy and could have been organized a bit better. I couldn’t tell womens clothes from girls. I think if you are more patient you might be able to find some treasures. For me just some huge gold hoops and that was it!

I had been meaning to find out what the big «Midnight Madness» sign on the window was all about, and tonight I finally did. Twice a month, this Goodwill stays open until midnight on Fridays and everything in the store is HALF OFF. Half off stuff at the Goodwill is like, almost free. Awesome, right ?
I managed to stumble in around half eleven, and proceeded to find a TON of great stuff: almost new red and white wingtip pumps, a Vivienne Westwood-​esque yellow plaid skirt, 1950’s/early 1960’s beaded cardigan, not-​so-​vintage Old Lady cardigan (I work at a library, I can get away with stuff like that), a few cute high-​waisted wool pencil skirts, and a vintage black slip. My vintage shopper’s acumen places the slip to be from that awkward period between the late 70’s/early 80’s where clothing did not know what to do with itself, and if I could fit my freaking nungas all the way in the thing, I’d wear it as a dress.
Who knew you could find so much great stuff in your neighborhood Goodwill? I bet I could’ve found so much more if I’d had more than a half hour, or hadn’t been reeling from that post-​drink/​dinner wave of fatigue. It’s been years since I found such great stuff here, and I’m quite proud of myself. The best part? I got almost all that stuff for only $ 11.98, Midnight MADNESS, I tell you ! MADNESS.
So the next time you decide to tie one on down at the Coop or Katie Blooms, drag your ass down to the Goodwill before it closes and get your drunk shop on. That’s the best kind there is.
