What should you check before visiting stores in Wollongong?

Donation rules, colour-tag sales and restock days vary by charity: call ahead if you are dropping furniture or large bags. Weekend volunteer rosters often differ from weekday hours, and card terminals can drop out on busy Saturdays, so bring a little cash. Fitting rooms and return policies are not guaranteed at every branch; ask before you buy if that matters for school uniforms or gifts.
