I figure at the mall or at Target lots of people have tried on that same article of clothing,
This is always What I think when people have an Issue with " Used" clothes.

You Are right - You have to Wash everything if you are Concerned with who Wore It Before You.
People Do Buy Nice Clothes at Nice places , Wear Then then Take them Back.

I Haven't Been To Goodwill in ages!
I Found another Hole in the wall Kind of Thrift shop , that Has lots of Deals!
Our Goodwill also has Many New things From Target!
And if An Item is name Brand they Mark it at Like 8.50 or 10.50. Not too Many Good Deals there.

I was wrong on the name brand it was Tommy Hillfiger jeans I got and I love them. My goodwill is a brandnew one and I really like it.

I wish our Goodwill was nicer - it's really grungy and jammed full of stuff that isn't in any way organized. The last time I was in there, they had put all the kids (from newborn to size 12) together on the racks. They weren't separated in any way - not even pants/shirts. Just all lumped together. Now, I had my 2 year old with me and I was trying to find a nice sweater for him for the holidays. that was almost 2 years ago (and I used to be a thrift store regular back home where I grew up). But really, shouldn't you make it somewhat easy on the customer? A good portion of their customers are moms, and not every mom can leave their kid with a sitter to go shop at the thrift store.... Guess I'll have to stick to the thrift stores back home.

Good for you! It is great to hear that another person gets great finds at Goodwill. So many of my nonfrugal friends are grossed out that I shop there but I always get compliments on my clothes and my family's clothes. Recently, I found a brand new, pink High School Musical backpack there. I filled it with Target finds (lipstick, lotion, stickers and books) and a t-shirt with "Princess" printed on the front. This cost a grand total of $5.00. My nine-year old son gave it to a classmate at her birthday party. She was thrilled and he was excited that she loved it so much. Several of the other girls at the party wanted the same gift!!!!

I LOVE our Goodwill, I try to make a weekly trip. I like how I don't have to guess at the prices...all shirts are one price, all jeans one price and so on.

Ours is really clean, sometimes not so neat, but it's clean.
