I paid money for items. The items did not fit. I want my money back for the items. I do not want store credit

We're sorry to hear about your situation. Goodwill has a "No Refunds" policy in most locations. The majority of Goodwill stores typically offer an exchange policy, wherein you can exchange the item for another of equal value within a limited time frame, usually seven days with a receipt. The exact policy might vary depending upon your location. However, it is standard that Goodwill does not give cash refunds. We recommend exchanging the items for something else in the store that fits or is to your liking. Please verify details from the store you made your purchase from.
