What is your return policy?
We want you to be satisfied with your purchase. That is why we offer a 14-day exchange policy with a receipt and tags attached.
Effective January 1, 2020 we no longer offer refunds or accept checks.
You get stuff for free. Can’t you give me a better deal?
Donations stock our stores to support our mission, but there are costs to get that lamp from your trunk onto a shelf. An attendant unloads donations, processors sort & price items and cashiers help customers. It takes 2.75 hours of staffing to process just 50 items and we stock 1,000+ new items daily in every store!
We also have expenses like rent, lighting and cooling to make your shopping experience clean and comfortable. Many items start at just $1.99 and we offer many promotions and sales. Sign up at gesmn.org/signup so you don’t miss savings!
