Came for Goodwill, stayed for Fourth Street. When visiting Tucson, GO HERE!! Fun and funky historic district with tons of sights and sounds to take in. Very well organized store with a college merch rack right up front.
Went there yesterday so much stuff. It reminds me when I was a kid going with my mom. Helpful staff perfect day lots of memories. Bought a few things was there for a hour.
I have been to this store several dozens of times and otherwise have many positive things to say. However, tonight, my partner got soap on her hands that came from one of Goodwill’s merchandise. This created a sensory issue, which causes distress and as anyone with sensory issues knows well, is often disabling. We asked an employee if she could rinse her hands in the bathroom. I was and am flabbergasted that this employee said “no”. When I asked why, I was told “it’s company policy.” This policy, of whose specifics I’m unsure, is flat out ABLEIST if applied in such an insensitive and thoughtless manner. To make matters worse, I had just seen someone coming out of the allegedly ‘against policy to let customers use’ bathroom, so clearly there is some exception in practice. I have no sympathy for ableism, implicit or not. Nobody should have to disclose their disabilities to be allowed to use such a basic function of a business(!)… Especially considering the issue was caused by something on Goodwill’s shelves. You would think a company who has any commitment to accommodating disabilities would not have this issue. Two words: universal design. I would like to think if we had asked a different employee, we may have gotten a different answer :(
I was shopping at this Goodwill on 4th Ave when I witnessed something that honestly made me really uncomfortable. A group of teenagers were browsing like everyone else when suddenly a employee and security came up to them yelling and telling them they needed to leave. They were accusing them of stealing, saying things like “we heard you’ve stolen” and that they needed to get out immediately.What really bothered me was how aggressive the situation became. One of the teens had an item in his hands that he appeared to just be looking at, and it was suddenly snatched away from him. The employees then started loudly escorting the group out of the store, continuing to yell at them and telling them they were not welcome back to that Goodwill or any Goodwill ever again.From what I saw, the teens were not causing any disruption before this happened. The way the situation was handled felt unnecessarily harsh and embarrassing for them, especially with how loudly it was done in front of other customers. Regardless of store policies, there are respectful ways to handle situations like this, and this did not feel like one of them. It left a really bad impression on me as a customer. Zero stars
Mostly nice staff, one rude that totally turned on me. Called me out of my name and was arguing with me at the register but still got defended by the manager. I literally go to goodwill all the time, i fix the clothes on the racks, I take the clothes off the hangers before they ring them up. I'm helpful and kind to everyone. They just had an attitude instead of thanking me and being cheerful towards me they were extremely rude, said I wasn't listening. When a person goes to the goodwill just for dollar days you don't really look beyond the color of the tag, if it's wrong it's wrong just make sure the person knows the price isn't ringing up on sale, why be rude when I'm there buying things regularly, not just a few things either. Gone.Are the days of good customer service and treating people with respect.
