Goodwill Outlet is where it's AT for brides-to-be!

Impressive! And those are really pretty as well (:

Goodwill!? WOW!!! Totally worth a trip! Thanks!

This is what I've come across so far at my local thrift store. 8 wooden plates (uses for bread at each table) a wooden veggie tray, a wooden bucket, 2 lanterns (will be changing glass to white instead of the blue) 3 flickering real wax flameless candles, and an awesome candlestick I think in total I've paid $12 so far. I keep my reciepts in the bucket to show FH

Nice. I wish we had Good Will around here. We have Salvation Army, but they still charge like..a buck for each cup/glass/bowl/etc.

By the pound places are the best.

That's awesome

This really depends on where you live. In my area it's easier to just use coupons and get things brand new instead of going through the terribly overpriced thrift shops. We don't even have a Goodwill close by.

You found some great stuff!

We have a few Goodwill stores in my area. I went to one just to look around and ended up buying about 10 gold/brass candlesticks to sit on the fireplace mantels at venue. The girl at the checkout looked at me like I was the crazy candlestick lady lol I am going to go check out the other stores to see if I can find anything else

I've been wanting to go to a goodwill outlet! I love regular goodwill but there isn't a outlet one close. I'm kinda jealous.

I got my dress at goodwill for $50. a $1400. dress at store. plus vintage shoes, our champagne glasses and some other things and spent under $65 for the day. Was a great day!

My fiance and I have been collecting glasses (mostly various wine glasses, some small tumbler type) and cases of various shapes and sizes for our rustic DIY reception. They have almost all come from the "Treasure House"- the local dump where they have a building of things that are still good but people don't want. We planned to used etching cream to personalize each glass and decorate each centerpiece with red burlap roses. I do also love their stores though!

And our goodwill just has a bunch of clothes that smell like mothballs

This seems more like an add than a ww user post...just saying!! One star??? Yea gtfo

Those are some great finds! I wish we had a Goodwill outlet around here! Bummer

I bought this stupid pumpkin at GW. It was one of my favorite decor items for the entire wedding. People actually commented on it. Total cost was about $3 or $4 if I remember correctly.

Sounds like most of you have had similar experiences which is awesome! I was so excited about the stuff I found that I just had to tell someone and FH doesn't get all that excited about all of the details unless it has to do with food or groomsmens' attire.

Honestly I probably wouldn't have looked here if it weren't for my mom's suggestion; I kind of had it in my mind previously that it would be a bunch of crappy stuff not worth looking at and in some cases that's true but there are definitely good finds to be had. We ended up spending a lot more on our venue and catering than we had planned for so every little bit we can save elsewhere can only help.

I <3 goodwill , I have not bought anything from my wedding there but im watching for shoes or something amazing to pop up! I did pay $20 for all the decor I will need for my center pieces!

Nice deals! My mom and I have made plans for Brimfield, mass in September to go flea marketing for wedding finds. Our one goodwill has crap and smells

Nice! I got so much from Goodwill when we were planning on doing a candy buffet. Unfortunately, we changed our minds and now we're stuck with them :/

Good finds!

I hit every Goodwill between me and Milwaukee to find the glass chimneys I needed for our centerpieces. The venue had 40 and we needed almost 70 so I knew I had to be resourceful. Different places online wanted $20plus for ONE of these chimneys. I found the 28 that I needed ranging from $2-4 each. Goodwill IS the place to get good deals for weddings
