FAQs

What is the cheapest day to go to Goodwill? ›

According to Goodwill, the perfect time slot to shop at thrift stores is in the morning on both Monday and Tuesday. This is because, at least as far as Goodwill is concerned, people tend to donate garage sale remnants on Sunday, so the pickings are new and fresh come early weekdays.

Goodwill, Serving the People of Southern Los Angeles County (SOLAC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that transforms donated goods into job training, education and placement services for individuals with barriers to employment.

We are open for donations with day, evening and weekend hours to make it convenient. Donating to Goodwill gives you the satisfaction of knowing that when you're finished cleaning and sorting, it's just one quick trip to your neighborhood Goodwill Store & Donation Center to be done!

While there's no “perfect” day to shop second hand stores, many regulars swear by shopping early on Monday and Tuesday. Homeowners tend to drop off garage sale leftovers on Sunday nights, making for new finds. Plus, the weekends are more crowded shopping days, so employees look to restock early in the week.

Give a Salary Range

At Goodwill, we strongly recommend that, when negotiating a job offer, you shouldn't name one specific number as the salary you want. Instead, you should give the company a salary range you expect to receive. The actual amount you wish to be paid should be within that range.

Eligibility Requirements:

14-21 years of age. Right to work in the U.S. Have a work permit, if under 18.

At the end of the week, there's not as much “good stuff” left, so wait until Monday or Tuesday after volunteers have had time to sort through donations and restock the shelves.

Shop at the beginning of the week.

This concept probably applies to all thrift stores, not just Goodwill. Monday is usually when the sale changes. Many thrift stores such as Goodwill and Savers have a specific color of tag that is on sale for the week. Usually the tag color changes on Sunday or Monday.
