“Really nice place. They have everything! From lawnmowers and tools, to plants, to little animals like chick's and baby ducks! Will be going again real soon.”
“Sophia was such an amazing cashier even as the line was getting longer and she was calling multiple times for back up at the register. She still handled herself very well and made my check out very pleasant thank you Sophia.”
“I really enjoy this Marshalls because you can almost always find good deals, and they're constantly getting new stuff in. Every time I stop by, there's something different, so it's fun to just walk through and see what you find. I've picked up home décor, gifts, and random seasonal finds here that ended up being great purchases. My only complaint is the shoe section. They never seem to have enough small sizes, and I often see cute shoes but can't find them in my size. I'd love to see more options for smaller feet. Overall though, it's a great store if you enjoy bargain hunting and finding things you didn't even know you needed. The staff and customer service are good.”
“Not alot of selection for toddler clothing, very picked over. Expected better sales, more discounts. This was not appealing to me to even look & shop. Candles did not have a great bargain either. $26. for a candle is not a sale people.”
“Some raggedy old lady wouldn’t stop complaining that she had to wait for someone else to finish using the other motorized scooter because the one she grabbed started to run out of battery, she just couldn’t accept someone else needed one as well! The staff did a wonderful job assisting her regardless of what she may say, they were much more patient than I would have been!”
“The manager and staff are really NICE all the time. They’re very patient - I can’t imagine all they go through with customers with all the squishy toy hype. They handle themselves well and stay friendly.”
“Mario helped us in your electronics department and let me tell you, I have never had such an intelligent and informational visit to Target than talking with him about the latest and greatest for iPhones. He was soooo knowledgeable about everything, and he was multitasking with other clients as well but still made us feel appreciated and valued. He helped us get accesories for our new phones and went above and beyond. Our faith in Target is restored, and that gentleman needs a raise, talk about such a strong representation for the company, Mario is one of your shining employees let me tell you. We will be back and you have him to thank entirely for that! Also, he is absolutely hilarious, and we shared quite a few laughs! Thanks again Mario!”
“Went in to pick up an online order today. While we were waiting for the clerk to retrieve it, 7 different employees walked through the customer service room. When they saw us standing there and no one behind the counter, every single one of them asked if we had been helped. Not 1 employee walked past without checking on us. That's good training.”
“I want to take a moment to recognize an outstanding Walmart employee, Carlos, at the Lodi location. I originally shopped on Saturday and noticed that the Kern’s Guava Nectar Juice was completely out of stock. I returned again today, Tuesday, March 31, expecting it to be replenished since I was told the truck would be arriving on Sunday. Unfortunately, the shelf was still empty, even though there had been a double delivery on Sunday, indicating sufficient inventory, but a lack of initiative in getting products stocked. That’s where Carlos made all the difference. Instead of simply confirming the item was out of stock, Carlos went above and beyond by checking the back refrigerator. Despite the system showing no availability on the shelf, he took the initiative to locate the product himself. Not only did he find the Kern’s Guava Nectar, but he also brought it out and restocked the shelf. This is a very popular product and a top-selling flavor, so it really matters to customers when it’s available. What mattered even more, though, was Carlos’s commitment to customer service. He took ownership, didn’t cut corners, and made sure the issue was resolved. In today’s economy, where consumers have a choice about where they shop and which grocery stores they support, experiences like this are critical. Customers can and will choose the stores that prioritize service, reliability, and availability. Ensuring shelves are stocked and taking the initiative to fully resolve customer needs isn’t just helpful, it’s essential. When time and money matter more than ever, shoppers gravitate toward businesses that respect both. That level of effort and accountability does not go unnoticed. Thank you, Carlos, for your excellent service, and thank you to Walmart for having team members who truly care about the customer experience.”
