1. I have never seen an outlet store for Goodwill.

Is this just everything that has been in the stores forever and not been sold? I know that the store in my town has things there for a long time. Hell, with an outlet that moves things out in just one day, you would have to go every day to see what they have. Yikes.

I am also upset to hear that they take everything not sold to a landfill. I have a hard time with that. I understand that they get some really crappy stuff that had no business being donated, but this feels so wrong.

How do you find Goodwill outlets?
