Goodwill Bins in Miami

"Have you ever watched a YouTube video or read a review that lead you to want to try a place? Well that is my story with Goodwill Outlet! I have seen so many YouTube goodwill outlet hauls where people find amazing items for very low prices. On my trip to Florida I was determined to stop by a Goodwill outlet. This appeared to be the closest one to where I was staying. Let’s first start with parking!!! It is chaotic!! I arrived around noon and there was no available parking in the lot. There is paid street parking, but even that is limited. Also, why would I want to pay to park and then go shopping at a goodwill outlet????! Since we could not find free parking I was just dropped off. I really had to use the restroom so that was my first order of business. I asked 3 staff and no one understood English!! Now maybe this is the norm in Miami. The security guard understood my request enough and helped me out. Long story short- the restroom at the outlet is not available. I was told to go next door to use the restroom. Next door is the building directly on the corner this is the traditional goodwill store. After I finally relieved myself I went back to the outlet. Now as I stated above, I came prepared, you know after watching all those YouTube videos!! I put on my gloves and started digging. This did not last very long. I think I checked out a total of about -9 bins and I was over it. Most of the items appear to be junk! I don’t know what the secret sauce is to actually find good items, but I don’t think I will ever find out! This experience was a bit overwhelming for me! I love a good deal, but I just don’t know that I love a deal so much that I am willing to dig through mostly junk to find a few slightly better than junk items . If this is something you don’t mind- knock yourself out!! Happy treasure hunting!"

"I shopped at the store, not the bins Not enough dressing rooms so be prepared to wait at least 30 minutes to try things... also there is no sign showing where the line begins so it's absolutely chaotic Everything is overpriced, found some good pieces but I know they would be cheaper at another location Had to park on the street for a charge, no free parking available"

"This is my favorite store! I go every chance I get. My closet is filled with clothes from here, and sometimes I’ll get lucky and find some cute little knickknacks as well. Some people turn their nose up at places like this because you have to ‘get your hands dirty’ digging for stuff, but I think it’s fun! Just take some Purell and you’ll be fine. :) It’s also easy to get to from the train, just get off at Santa Clara and walk less than a mile. I’m going again today! The main Goodwill located directly beside it is nice as well, it’s nothing special though. It’s the same as all the other ones. You can always find great stuff, but next door at the Pound Store is way more interesting and much cheaper. Try both! I might have to mention the parking.. It’s very, very crowded there so you will probably have to park far away or circle around a bunch to find a spot."

"It was one of Goodwill outlets that we love going to especially with my mom because she likes going to such places to spend her weekends. She loves shopping for nice clothes at low prices because she needs more clothes going to our local church. She loves to dress beautifully during Sunday service. Anyways, this place was awesome and lots to choose from at super low prices."
