    oh yeah, I dropped a lot of clothes off at the LA Mission. Had to drive like 30 minutes to skid row versus the goodwill down the street but like I said, Goodwill seems scammy.

    I think driving gloves are pretentious, a driving coat just seems ridiculous.

    My mentally ill brother was employed by Goodwill. I never had any dealings with them other than at their thrift stores and donating some clothing, books and furniture to them.
    My mother dealt with them as my brother's guardian. She liked them.

    over 99% of all car accidents involve at least one party not wearing driving gloves. Even though most cars are specifically designed for them to be worn while driving.

    We're getting a heated leather steering wheel so no need for driving gloves.

    See my post below in response to 3RA1N1AC. Post no. 28.
    My seats are also heated so no need for a driving coat. I hate wearing a coat in the car.

    Last time I was in Oregon I stopped by goodwill to grab a shirt because I spilled coffee all over mine and my suitcase was at my moms house.

    Hanes White T-shirt’s (the cheap ones that come in a 5 pack), OUT of the pack, used and stained, for $6 a piece.

    Those MFs at Goodwill are smoking more crack than the people they get their clothes from.
