Goodwill Store & Donation Center

GUEST POST by @reaganeconrad on Instagram - My all time favorite thrifted sweatshirt is this Dale Earnhart crew I found at Goodwill for $3! So many people ask where I bought it and I love to proudly share that it was a Goodwill find! Fast fashion stores like Forever 21 and H&M have recently been producing replicas of vintage Nascar merchandise so it's even more special that this is a legitimate piece. Avoid shopping fast fashion when you can and shop secondhand. Let's do our part to limit the industry of fast fashion and support the local community through donations and shopping at Goodwill!

GUEST POST by @reaganeconrad on Instagram - I wish I was able to figure out exactly what era this sport jacket is, but from what I can tell, it's what I like to call: vintage. There are certain features to any good vintage piece that makes it stand out among the rest in a thrift store. From the color, style, to the interior embroidery and label, I can tell with certainty that this jacket did not come from the last few decades. I love vintage pieces because while unique and often valuable, they most importantly have lots of character. I found this piece at Goodwill! I'm thankful for others who donate to Goodwill and pass on their cherished pieces to be loved by the next generation! Don't forget to donate and let's keep the cycle going! #shopgoodwill

Happy #GoodwillWeek! When you donate to your local Goodwill, you are helping people in your community find jobs and grow their careers. Here's how it works!

GUEST POST by @reaganeconrad on Instagram - It's spring time and that means spring cleaning is here! As you clean up your room and open up your closets, take some time to be intentional about what you no longer need and what you can donate. Fill up bags and boxes and stop by your local Goodwill to give your items a new home!

GUEST POST by @reaganeconrad on Instagram -I've said it once and I'll say it again, a good pair of jeans is essential to all of my favorite looks. I found this pair of Levi's at Goodwill for $3.99. I loved the light wash color but they were a bit too big to start with. So, with the savings from shopping at Goodwill, I was able to afford to stop by the tailor to get them fitted, supporting two local businesses in the process. Goodwill is a household name and a staple in our community for good reason. Take time to donate, shop and support a business like Goodwill that is always giving back.

Declutter your kitchen this Spring and donate any duplicates or overflow. Streamline your space and optimize your cabinets!

GUEST POST by @reaganeconrad on Instagram - One extremely important part of any good thrifter's routine is to DONATE, DONATE, DONATE! Whether it's at the start of every season, every month, week, or year, it is extremely important to keep the cycle of secondhand clothes going, by giving some of your infrequently used items to Goodwill. My rule of thumb is this: if I plan to buy a big bag full of clothes from Goodwill, I pack a bag to bring along to the donation bins before heading inside to shop. This cycle keeps my closet from overcrowding and the flow of fresh items constantly streaming through the racks. I often ask myself, "Have you actually worn this recently"? If the answer is no, it goes along on my next trip to Goodwill to find a new home with someone who will wear it! #shopsecondhand

GUEST POST by @reaganeconrad on Instagram - I never thought there would be a day when I owned a Prada backpack! After purchasing this for $20 at Goodwill - I did some heavy research to see if it was authentic and sure enough, it is! As an avid thrifter for the past several years, it’s extremely exciting and rewarding to find a gem like this. Thrifting is truly a treasure hunt and this is my best treasure yet. You really never know what you’ll find! Now it’s your turn to go on the hunt! #goodwillhunting

GUEST POST by @blythe.photo on Instagram - Growing up in a large family on a small budget taught me that Goodwill was an excellent place to look for Christmas presents. It was so exciting to search the aisles for the perfect toy, book, accessory, or knickknack for my siblings. To this day, I thrift for gifts, and the receiver is always so appreciative! More and more people are trying to create less waste, and one of the biggest ways to do that is to buy secondhand. You may be surprised at how many gift-worthy items you find at Goodwill! This handmade jute bag and ceramic vase are beautiful, and there are several people on my gift list that would love them.

GUEST POST by @reaganeconrad on Instagram - I love how dried flowers can last forever. I had been struggling to find the perfect way to showcase my flowers until I spotted these white vases at Goodwill! I actually found 9 of these and now have them sprinkled around my room. Better yet- each vase was only 99 cents! Never overlook the decor section, you may just find the piece you’ve been looking for! Sustainable shopping finds are even more rewarding. #sustainableshopping
