Goodwill auction site?

[SoCalGirl]

I was on the Goodwill Industries website to check if they took computer monitors when I saw links to http://www.shopgoodwill.com/

It's kinda like eBay but the proceeds go to charity! I thought that was an awesome idea. I know there's several GC'ers who shop eBay and would think ya'll might want to check it out. What could be better than "winning" an auction and helping people out?

/related note - If you buy stuff at Goodwill, is that a tax write off too?

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I'll say no. You're buying stuff so technically you're receiving goods, which isn't deductible.
