How Goodwill rewards their frequent shoppers!

Goodwill is making record profits in this crappy economy and here is what they chose to do for their frequent shoppers as a “thank you.”

Now, if you spend $200 over the course of time – Goodwill will give you a $10 in-store-credit.

Effective in September – they are changing it up – so…

you now have to spend $400 to get that $10 credit.

Hey!

That’s no way to say thank you for record profits!

Now, if you spend $15 in one transaction – you get 5% off the price, and if you spend over $50 you get 7% off the price, and I think over $100 got you a 10% discount.

Because of the record profits that Goodwill is making they are changing that policy also.

They will change that to a straight 5% discount no matter how much you spend over $20.

Hey!

That is no way to say thanks to your customers.

It makes me want to lay down on the floor and have a tantrum.

The new Salvation Army store that opened up down the road has some interesting policies too.

They have specials – like all furniture 1/2 price.

They have random specials just like that ALL the TIME.

They offer a senior discount every day of the week – but on Wednesday – they double that discount to 30%.

Ha.

Take THAT Goodwill.

Goodwill has a funny funny way of saying:

I think the signal from Goodwill feels more like

a middle digit wagging in my face.

Harumph.
