So, on January 12th, while looking for good deals at the Goodwill at Delta Oaks, I noticed some cases of water for sale. Then I looked closer at the price and realized that the cases of Kirkland brand water they were selling are priced higher then in Costco. What gives goodwill? I also bought an item at the Santa Clara store, 12 jars for canning, at $2.99. At the Delta Oaks store, the same product was $4.99. I asked the manager why, and she stated that the have individual prices, and don't price match with other stores, even ones 2 miles apart.
