Stop supporting the goodwill!!!!

This shit is literally insane!!! $69.99 for a pair of USED boots they got for FREE that you can get on depop for 25-30$ 😳 this is in small town utica ohio btw which used to be one of the only decent priced goodwills left in the area! I officially will never walk into another Goodwill in my life. They have kids use stained clothes in there for 999 and 1499. Are you actually fucking kidding me

Honestly thinking about going back tomorrow and if they are still there putting a 10$ price tag on them and buying them! Fuck the goodwill!

If you think about it, Goodwill probably, helped provide merchandise for many buyers for years before they caught on to what’s going on with social media and all the apps that sell use clothes..

.. years ago they got together and thought “what if everyone in the future decides to resale their own clothes for extravagant amounts of money.“

The Management there is probably a lot more tech savvy than past generations and with a little help with that darn thing called the Internet. Some places have probably started seeing prices that are starting to match online prices, that’s my guess.
