I shop Goodwill like it’s a job.
DVDs are always welcome. We have like 900 discs right now. $1.50-$3 a piece over several years.
Then it’s all kitchen gadgets. All kinds of single purpose appliances for <$10. If they work out, keep them or upgrade them to a higher quality brand. If they don’t, donate them back.
It’s a lot of fun, and a real shopping experience that forces you to consider different options because if limitations where Amazon might funnel you into a single solution.
Is it only Goodwill specifically or any thrift store? Are Goodwills generally better than others?
Goodwills are general worse in my opinion.
They set up an auction site and now all the good stuff is up for auction instead of sitting on shelves
