Shopping Tips

  • Visit mid-week — Tuesday through Thursday mornings are prime time at La Crosse Goodwill, when fresh donations from the weekend are processed and stocked on the floor before the weekend rush picks them over.
  • Check the color-tag rotation: Goodwill uses a rotating color-tag discount system, so ask staff which color is currently on sale to maximize your savings.
  • Don't skip the furniture and housewares section — this La Crosse location serves a large donation area across the Coulee Region, and quality finds like cast iron, vintage dishware, and solid wood furniture appear regularly.
  • Shop with a flexible list: the inventory changes daily, so come with an open mind alongside any specific needs — you'll often find something unexpected that's worth the trip.
  • Bring measurements for furniture or clothing sizes you're shopping for — there are no fitting rooms at all locations, and having dimensions on hand saves time and prevents returns.
