Goodwill Outlets In Wisconsin

There are 4 Goodwill Outlets and Goodwill Bins scattered across Milwaukee, Appleton, and Sturtevant, Wisconsin.

Compared to other thrift stores, the Goodwill Outlets here in Wisconsin tend to be less cutthroat and intense. If you’ve been to Goodwill Bins before, you know how competitive it can get. Here, you can browse peacefully alongside fellow thrifty shoppers and resellers.

So, what are Goodwill Outlets? Picture walking into a huge warehouse filled with rows of large blue plastic bins brimming with unsorted goods. Everything is priced by weight, giving you the freedom to sift through and unearth valuable finds at a fraction of their retail cost.

It’s a mecca for treasure hunters and draws a diverse crowd of shoppers. Resellers and bargain hunters flock to these spots daily, eager to snag new treasures as bins are rotated with fresh stock each day. If you prefer a more relaxed shopping vibe, aim to arrive a bit later after the store opens.

But if you thrive on the competition or fancy yourself a seasoned shopper or flipper, here are some tips:

Be ready bright and early with gloves and a sturdy shopping bag, as the carts can disappear in a flash amidst the hustle. And don’t be surprised if you find yourself maneuvering through the crowd of competitive shoppers—it’s all part of the game. Some folks even make a living this way.

If your first visit doesn’t yield any gems, don’t sweat it. With new bins arriving daily, persistence and a bit of luck can quickly hone your thrifting skills and lead to some exciting discoveries. Happy hunting out there!

Found the best deals, must have time to shop and dig through bins. This is an outlet, items are sold by the lb. Great finds, NWT, gently used, designer, etc. Stop in to find your deal.

It's now an outlet and the pound per piece concept i love. Way much cheaper. Course one woman says they should just give it out Free. Haha

Not the traditional store. All merchandise was in rolling bins. Items sold by weight. Disappointing experience.

This was the least busy bin store I've ever been to. There was plenty of parking. The bathrooms were clean and the bins full. This store is 2 hours from my home in southeastern WI and I will be back.

Whenever I'm visiting family from out of state, we always stop by. Tons of junk, but also some really fantastic deals. It's by the pound (mostly), so brand-new items are as cheap as the hum-drum. Worth a trip if you love rummaging!

Probably THE worst goodwill outlet to go to. 2 hour rotation times are you kidding me? Must not care about money doing the bare minimum work. Not to mention the rude and bossy staff make it feel like your back in middle school with how they treat customers, adding new “rules” and policies each day. Also make it feel like they want you in and out, can’t leave your cart parked or bring drinks or food in. NOT EVEN WATER! Hopefully someone higher up see’s this and changes things because I’ve seen the ammount of people that shop here decline heavily in the past 2 years. Get it together Goodwill.

The prices are very good, but you have to be patient to dig around and find what you like. It's convenient that they have a weight scale on the side of the registers to see how much your stuff would cost (didn't notice till my 2nd visit). Bring gloves to dig around because of sharp or broken things and it can get dirty. I was disappointed with my 1st visit as to how much I paid for the little amount of things I had weighed in the cart. Gave it another chance to finally see how things flow and got a better deal the 2nd visit with my stuff being weighed on the counter. I feel it's cheaper to have your stuff weighed on the counter than in a cart and weighed on the floor mat.

For those wondering, you basically dig through the bins at your leisure and toss wanted items into your cart. You pay by weight for things like clothes, making them far cheaper than those you would buy at the regular Goodwill stores. The quality is very hit or miss though, there are a lot of items that I wouldn't touch without gloves on. The occasional hit is absolutely worth the time investment though, the prices are simply unbeatable for thrift shopping. With how often they swap bins in and out, I almost always leave with at least one full bag The Outlet is also a hotspot for resellers. Every time new bins are put out, there is always a stampede of people wanting to dig through them to find things to sell before anyone else can grab them. I tend to avoid new bins until the crowd dies down a bit, but that does mean that I can potentially miss out on things that I would have otherwise wanted. If you are looking for brand new or name brand things, be prepared to quickly dig through new bins

The outlet is awesome you can find a lot of cool stuff. But I didn't write this review to talk about the outlet, I'm writing this review to talk about all the people complaining about the regulars. All you cry babies know you could do the same thing they do right? I get it it's not convenient for most people but that doesn't give you the right to complain. Go buy the stuff new if you don't want to deal with "regulars" stop being such a cheap person. Also for all the people saying all the regulars resale stuff, I had a nice conversation with a gentleman who is a regular and he collects the stuff he doesn't sell it. So stop acting like you know everything, cuz you don't

Today was very busy. It seemed that most people had a cart, as the cart corral was empty except for maybe two or three left. Most who had carts are regulars, who sell what they buy, and once the bins have been sifted through, move on to the next row of bins to be exchanged for new items. Because of the crowd today, the people waiting in the aisles with their carts for fresh bins left very little room to walk, and we're blocking access to the bins others would like to look through. Most were standing around conversing with others, blind to the fact that other customers would like to dig through the bins too. None were rude, and would move if asked, but there has to be a better way.

hoarders are there every time I have been there. This location needs to limit their time at the outlet period! One got up in my face once. You should be limited one Cart per shopping trip. Have also seen these rude regulars full on eating food inside the store since when did Goodwill turn into a restaurant? Yall need to do something about this hoarders that make it unnecessarily impossible for non regulars to shop before you are sued under the Americans with Disabilities Act because these folks sure do not make it easy for folks with disabilities to shop.

This Bin location is the cleanest most organized one I have been to. The staff is very nice, lots of friendly regulars that will help you out with tips. I drive an extra hour just to come here, 3.5 hrs each way.

Goodwill Madison Outlet Store is so fun! I have unearthed many treasures here, and many more to come. Prices are L Rizz if you have beneath 25lb, so make sure you fill your cart. I really like the unspoken rule that most people abide by, where we all throw the emo clothes to that one guy nic. he is so awesome and cool. this is a great place to improve your closet, in a sustainable way! also the employees are super duper nice, i would give more stars if i could!

It's mostly clothes not a lot of hard goods. It's clean which is new for a Goodwill outlet but the bins aren't anything good even if you dig

@SamAzar
I was the first customer at this place, for a grand opening it was the worse I ever seen for a goodwill outlet. Almost nothing in the bins and all the good stuff was pre picked and taken out. Absolutely awful management on their part. Drove 2 hours all excited for a complete upset, also 1 person per bin which is diabolical, covid is over and nobody wants to wait to pick in a bin. Good luck Madison because your numbers will not even come close to romeoville . Romeovilles is the best.
