Nevada's got two Goodwill bins locations, one in Reno and the other in Las Vegas. Each Goodwill outlet reflects its city's character pretty perfectly. The Reno outlet feels like a scrappy treasure hunt – a mix of local thrifters and road-trippers passing through, all digging for deals on everything from ski jackets to vintage casino swag at the Goodwill bins. Las Vegas's Goodwill outlet, on the other hand, can get absolutely wild. It's often busy with seasoned thrifters (including plenty of resellers) who descend on new bins like high rollers at a jackpot, hoping to score luxury brands or unique showpieces tossed out from the Strip. At either Goodwill bins location, you'll be shopping by the pound, which means great bargains are definitely there for the taking. Be prepared for the Goodwill outlet experience: gloves are a must (broken glass and dusty knick-knacks pop up frequently) and securing a cart early is wise if you plan a big haul. The competitive spirit is definitely alive in Nevada's Goodwill bins – especially in Vegas, where things can get **very** intense when fresh merchandise is wheeled out at the Goodwill outlet. Don't let that intimidate you, though. Regulars are happy to swap stories of their best scores once the rush calms down. If the frenzy isn't your style, consider visiting the Goodwill bins later in the day when it's quieter (and cooler – Nevada warehouses can heat up!). And remember, with new goods coming into the Goodwill outlet daily, today's bust could be tomorrow's bonanza.
