Georgia currently has three Goodwill bins locations (one's in Columbus and the other's in Savannah – the Augusta outlet unfortunately closed during the pandemic). The remaining Goodwill outlet stores are fantastic spots for thrifters, vintage lovers, and anyone who's looking to flip items online for profit. You'll be digging through bins filled with clothing, electronics, and all sorts of surprises, priced by weight (around $2.00 per pound). Lately, more resellers and collectors have been showing up at these Goodwill bins, so it really helps to get there early. Bring gloves and a large shopping bag because carts can be incredibly hard to find, and yes – people can get competitive at times (it's all just part of the experience though). Despite all the hustle, the atmosphere is generally pretty friendly; regulars might even offer newcomers some helpful tips. And if you don't have much luck on your first visit to the Goodwill outlet, don't stress about it. New bins get rolled out every day, so stick with it and you'll start spotting the good stuff in no time.
