  Normally I adore Goodwill. Their former location had better parking and as it turns out, polite staff. My two visits were the worst experience at Goodwill to date I have ever had. The first time I had to ask 4 staff members if they had any larger sizes of children's clothes. Three of them ignored me outright, after eye contact was made! The lady who did deign to answer me seemed overly hostile for such a simple question. The second visit confirmed that I will never go back. I found a pair of awesome slippers for like $4, yippee right? When I got to the till the cashier informed me that they were $10, "because of the double mark, that means $10 not $4, NONE of our shoes are under $10!" She then proceeded to speak to her colleagues in front of me using a language I do not understand. Her comments were followed by laughter all around. She was rude,unprofessional and refused to give me a receipt as talking to her friends seemed more important. I was made to feel like a thief(despite paying the $10) and left the store so angry it took awhile to calm down to drive. I am FIRMLY Value Village team now. There is no reason to act like that at work. She (for me) ruined the good the organization does and I will not support a company that continues to employ persons such as her.

  Staff is always super helpful! Almost always some great deals here. My only con about this place is that its usually very very dusty. Otherwise, amazing place if you want to score some good deals.

  A good selection of housewares and clothing, and parking is usually plentiful. It loses one star only because the space isn't laid out as well as the previous iteration on 51 Ave - it's a little less intuitive to get around in. Same helpful staff though, so definitely worth the extra drive!

  I stumbled upon this beautiful new location today by chance, and I was so thrilled! Everything is very clean and organized - I know I'll be frequenting this location quite often.

  Overall the new location is bigger, better and busier than ever..I had a small issue where I purchased a handful of items only to leave my gloves on the counter, which was set aside by the cashier and when I returned next day to speak with the same cashier; her colleague had placed my gloves elsewhere likely to be donated. This place; despite new, needs to be better organized..sizing in menswear is all over the place. Aside from that it is the best thrift store in the city
