Goodwill Store Opens in Marion on March 16

A Goodwill store opens in Grant County with a new look, quality merchandise and affordable prices.  The Marion Goodwill Store, located at 3164 S.

Donors bringing donations to the Marion Goodwill Store will receive a 20% off coupon to Elder-Beerman for every clothing item they donate March 16-24.  In addition, shoppers can have a chance to win $50 gift certificates March 16-18 and can register to win an iPod or portable DVD player March 16-24.

“We are very excited to be  in the Marion community,” said Kent A. Kramer, vice president of retail operations.  “The new store will be convenient for Marion residents and carry quality, brand-name merchandise for just a fraction of a cost.  In these economic times, shopping at Goodwill helps to stretch the retail dollar, and there’s never been a better time to donate at Goodwill.”

Along with wall-to-wall designer clothes, household items, books and toys, the new store boasts 14,000 square feet, three checkout lanes, a donation drive-thru center and 25 employees.
