1. Bring a friend

Thrifting is more fun with friends! Bring a friend or family member along for a day of treasure hunting. Having a second pair of eyes can help you spot great finds and share the thrill of discovering hidden gems.

2. Check the calendar

We offer weekly color tag sales and discounts for healthcare workers, first responders, military & seniors (55+). Goodwill VIPs get exclusive savings and deals delivered right to their phones and there are many ways (and days) to save. Weekends are busiest at Goodwill, so try coming during the week to score deals. 

3. Be Creative

Look for items that can be upcycled or repurposed. An old dresser can become a chic new buffet, a vintage pitcher can become a stylish vase, a serving tray doubles as art and a colorful shirt can be transformed into a pillow. Upcycling and thrifting reduces the impact of fast fashion on the environment. Did you know Goodwill diverts over 65 million pounds from Minnesota landfills each year?
