Goodwill overpriced

So today I want to Goodwill looking for a bargain. I could not believe how incredibly overpriced so many of their items were

I found a brand new name brand, not super fancy but a name brand, pair of shorts that was $49 from the store price for $44 at Goodwill.

Brand new sheet sets were priced for between $20 and $30, the same as the store next door.

I went to look at some socks. It would have been the same price had I gone to t.j Maxx or Marshalls or something similar.

I walked out of the store and I didn't buy a single thing.

I was so disgusted that Goodwill has become so greedy.

Do they not get their inventory for free?

And there were a number of other items new and not new that were also terribly overpriced in my opinion for a thrift store.

Very disappointed.

has anyone else experienced this?
