3.5 stars would be more accurate. In general, I like the 99 (cent) stores the best of the dollar store chains. This location seems to feel semi-dirty. Not the store's fault but it tends to attract more homeless people. The parking lot has been redone several years ago so that has really helped the ghetto feeling situation. Their produce can still look on the verge of spoiling, but at least it's available. There are sometimes good brand-name deals on cold foods and drinks. You can really score some good deals here. and of course this is not a 99c only Dollar store. It's more of a discount and bargain finds store. Similar to Ross discount finds. If you enjoy random bargain finds, this is a good place.

Typical 99 Store. It needs a deep cleaning or something. Just feels dirty sometimes. Parking lot can be tricky for some. Be patient...

Manager short, with glasses , Latina younger lady, touched my 4 year old son with out our permission thinking he had candy in his hand eating it in the store. She grabbed him hard and scared him pretty bad. Won't be returning here. Always feels weird shopping here as a black women like the cashier's are going out there way to be rude.

Hadn't been to a 99 Cent Only Store in a very long time. There was one in the Valley that I went to years ago with a friend and was pleasantly surprised at the availability of some name brand items and the quantity of choices. This wasn't that. We were hunting for a small insulated lunch bag or similar as the afternoon was quite warm and we'd just purchased some beautiful chocolates nearby and didn't want them to melt before we got home. Since I didn't know the store, and the first impression upon walking in was that it was very chaotic, I asked one of the cashiers. She suggested two different aisles, and even asked another coworker. They collectively sent us to Aisles 1, 3, or 4. No luck at any of them. We ended up buying a nesting stack of kitchen storage bowls, some Ziplock bags, and two frozen bags of veggies to create a simulation of an insulated carrier for the chocolates, plus some Greek olives we'd also purchased. Sometimes you've got to improvise! From the quick walk-around, I noticed a lot of off-brand and flimsy-looking merchandise. A lot of plastic items that would probably break in a very short period of time. "Cheap is as cheap does" came to mind. Should I find myself similarly unprepared in the future, I think I'd try a different kind of store, like HomeGoods, Marshall's, etc. One of the purchases I made was a roll of mid-sized trash bags. Super flimsy! About useless. Not a good value for even a modest amount of outlay. Sigh. Didn't take any photos as I couldn't way to get done and move on. Also, parking is tricky. It's behind the store, off of Main Street. It's adjacent to the hospital, so there're a lot of comings and goings and not that many open spots to park anywhere near the store. It is free, though.

Shoutout to Westly at the 99 Cent Only Store on Main Street, Ventura! I just had the most amazing experience at this store on September 15, 2023! Not only did I find some incredible deals (as always), but Westly went above and beyond to make my visit extra special. First off, my credit card was acting up, and I was worried I wouldn't be able to make my purchases. But guess what? Westly came to the rescue and fixed it in no time! Talk about exceptional customer service! But that's not all! On a different occasion, I had the misfortune of misplacing my phone somewhere in the store. Can you imagine the panic? Thankfully, Westly was there to save the day once again. He helped me search high and low until we found it tucked away in a random aisle. Phew! What impressed me the most was how busy the store was, yet Westly remained calm, collected, and attentive to every customer's needs. And when the lines started to get long, he quickly opened up another register to ensure everyone had a smooth checkout experience. Talk about going the extra mile! I can't thank Westly enough for his outstanding service and genuine kindness. It's people like him who make shopping at the 99 Cent Only Store an absolute delight! So if you're ever in Ventura, make sure to swing by this store and say hi to Westly. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! #CustomerServiceChampion #99CentOnlyStore #VenturaVibes

There are things that the 99 Cent store has that I know they have, so I go there for those items. After that, it's like a needle and a haystack treasure hunt, and well worth it if you have the time to browse.

Overpriced. Found a 12 pack of Snackpack puddings for $3.50 that sells at Walmart for $3.27. Many other items are overpriced as well. 99 Cents Only Stores no longer has anything for 99 cents only.

Weird location. Lot of stuff sometimes; chaotic at other times with vagrants around. But you will be surprised what you find inside. Their products vary all the time. Nice cloth hamper!

Ehhh I have been to better stocked stores also most of the items are no longer 99cents so it actually kind of sucks because they are completely dishonest in what they claim the store is. Overall not worth the trouble because they have engaged in a bait and switch model
