We headed straight to the back to housewares and my sister hit the mother lode on Fiestaware. She collects all colors and eventually walked out with a large box and bag full of colorful pieces. I also found the wooden kayak for my mom to give my husband for Christmas (shhhhh &#8211; don\u2019t tell him!).<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/TrappeBlog.jpeg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2712\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2712\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/TrappeBlog.jpeg\" alt=\"TrappeBlog\" width=\"475\" height=\"665\" data-size=\"653x914\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/TrappeBlog.jpeg 653w, https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/TrappeBlog-214x300.jpeg 214w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/> <\/a><\/p>\n<p>I, of course, hit the clothing and accessories aisles and I was not disappointed.

The front of the store was filled was Halloween costumes and miscellaneous Halloween d\u00e9cor was sprinkled through the store on end caps. I\u2019ll be searching for costumes soon, but not today. I did pass on a beautiful ivory leather Michael Kors bag marked at $24.97 (pictured) only because I have a similar Calvin Klein bag at home (purchased at the Goodwill store in East Earl).<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/TrappeBlog1.jpeg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2713\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2713\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/TrappeBlog1.jpeg\" alt=\"TrappeBlog1\" width=\"475\" height=\"339\" data-size=\"952x680\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/TrappeBlog1.jpeg 952w, https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/TrappeBlog1-300x214.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/TrappeBlog1-768x549.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/TrappeBlog1-840x600.jpeg 840w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/> <\/a><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m going to save the pictures of what I found for future blog posts, but these are the items that I picked up today: a dark green leather Cole Haan bag, turquoise Converse sneakers (which my youngest daughter already loves), a green hooded NorthFace jacket, RBX running shorts, a black Madison Marcus dress (retails for up to $200!) and 2 necklaces. All for under $50! It was a very good haul!<\/p>\n<p>The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating and really took pride in their opening. By the time we left the store, it was filled with shoppers. I will definitely be back to this location.
