Shopping Tips
- Visit mid-week — Tuesday through Thursday mornings are prime time at the Plover Goodwill, as freshly sorted donations are typically stocked, giving you first pick before weekend crowds arrive.
- Check tags for color-coded discount days, when Goodwill rotates specific tag colors to half price or more — ask staff which color is currently on sale.
