Description : Can an individual own a Goodwill store and pocket the sales ?

Last Answer : I think not. They have to file a special tax return as a non profit and account for the funds. And they have to publish a notice it’s on file and anyone can get a copy. They can abuse the rules but they risk their non profit status.

Description : Is buying a "used" vacuum cleaner a safe idea?

Last Answer : I would not have purchased a used vacuum cleaner. Clothes, dishes, etc. you can sanitize. You can’t really sanitize a vacuum cleaner. After a cloud of smoke came out of it, why would you buy it anyway? That would tell me it probably didn’t work properly. I think I would just take it back.
