    Then why does anyone donate shit to Goodwill. I thought they purposely sold things cheap so that people that needed it could afford it.

      That’s been their marketing for decades. It’s been coming unraveled recently though. There are actual thrift shops that charge enough to keep the doors open and do their other projects. There’s also homeless and near homeless donation places that will take your stuff in and use it to furnish a place given to a homeless person.

      Really we should have all been very sus of a “thrift store” with Goodwill’s marketing budget.
