Browsing the books for some reason is treated with the utmost suspicion by staff. Had one staff member stand right next to me and stare while I browsed, and then got roused on at the counter for looking at an art book. Goulburn mustn’t be a big town of readers, so book browsing doesn’t add up. Still, I bought a couple of books, then left town asap. I mean, they vote for Angus Taylor in this place, so, beware.
Saturdays apparently they stay open til 4 if there are lots of customers in store so go check it out even if you think it's shut. The donation centre round the back shuts at midday though so if you have a big load to drop off do it first thing. I always did like this Vinnies, unfortunately they've also started to suffer from the uptake in prices as most Vinnies have in recent years. They still have weekly discounts on their rotating ticket colours though. I don't come as often as I used to. But everyone who works there is lovely, and there's so much to see. Great now they've extended the shop to the back. Lots of treasures to sift through. Just found a nice leather vest for $20, which is fine, but still felt like a luxury price for unwanted goods... Only walked out of there with that as I couldn't also justify $25 for a pair of pants. almost $50 for just two items? :/ also saw $100 on a vtg wedding dress that said on the ticket 'needs a dry clean' lol! and $30 on a childrens sweater, even though it stated on the tag 'damaged'. It's just hit or miss. You can come out with maybe one or two good treasures within a reasonable budget.
Lots of goodies for those looking for second hand bargains. Clothes, cookery, cockery, jewellery, fashion bags, glassware, books, toys, shoes, haberdashery, stationary and childrens wear was well stocked through this little store. Located on the main street with plenty of parking outside the shop.
