This Goodwill is most likely the largest thrift store in Washington state. It is literally two lengthy buildings combined into one, separated into a clothing plus accessories area and electronics plus household goods. Most Goodwill donations go to this store and the inventory is massive and changing every minute. While browsing you will often see employees bring out carts full of new inventory many, many times. Everything is very organized and things only get messy due to the uncaring customers taking and throwing things around wherever they please.
Prices are about average for a thrift store and often times items are undervalued. I usually go here twice a week and almost always come out with items that are valued 5-10X more than what I paid, sometimes even more.
This store, similar to other Goodwills, have a generous return policy in which you can return anything you purchased within 7 days for store credit (no money back). A lot of thrift stores do not have a return policy and forces you to keep whatever you bought, even if you found out it was broken.
The store gets ton of traffic everyday and this is one of my few complaints. Isles are very narrow and there will almost always be two or more people with large shopping carts in those isles, blocking your way through.
Some of the employees that work here are also downright rude and obnoxious. There is a certain young lady that whenever I come in the store is always having an argument with another employee or customer, and her yelling is so loud it can be heard throughout the entire store. It doesn't present professionalism and creates a rather hostile environment for customers.
Overall, this is probably one of the best thrift stores to shop if you're in Washington. I hope they continue to be opened in the future and don't raise their prices. As of now, this store is an absolute gem!
