“I NEED TO MAKE THIS POST! PLEASE READ! My girlfriend and I went to ocean state yesterday to pick up a gazebo from the service desk (right when you walk in the register to the right) there was a VERY helpful gentleman named Mario or Jesus (we couldn’t read his nametag) he IMMEDIATELY went to get our order from the back. So very very helpful and nice. As we are waiting…this woman ( she was a Spanish woman I think she was a manager) comes over, walks right by my girlfriend and I without saying a word or asking if we are all set. She starts looking for our cashier who was getting our order ready, she then proceeds to yell at the other cashiers looking for Mario/Jesus. Finally after like 2 min of her yelling I made it VERY clear he was helping us and if she just asked where he was (politely) we could have let her know. It was so uncalled for. Mario/Jesus comes back and is so super pleasant and helps with the rest of the order. HE should be manager. Not that other lady. She was not very acclimated to customer service.”
“I love TJMaxx! I have never left a trip there without making a purchase, even if I went just to browse. Love their prices and the merchandise! While I do a lot of shopping on Amazon and other online retailers, you can't beat a trip to TJ Maxx. I'll always be a shopper there. Nothing like in-person shopping!”
“I love coming to the store. They always have the things I’m looking for!! Tonight, the girl that was working was so sweet and you even called me pretty despite the fact, I’m not wearing any makeup.. You guys are the best”
“I only stood outside of the place waiting for my family to come from inside shopping what I see outside is a clean decent nice area and store very good items inside”
“Translate text with your camera As always, I am very honest, the place is small, so it gives the opportunity to make a purchase with very personal treatment, its owners are very nice and respectful, I really liked the quality of their items. Buy very comfortably. I hope to come back soon. Puedes ir a comprar con gusto!!!!”
“The store was ok. I found the items I was looking for... but had to have a price check as many things were not marked. The store had so much clutter, it was hard getting my cart by stuff. Otherwise. I found what I was after and it was ok priced.”
“Ocean States in general doing a good job on pricing and selection. And this store is no exception. This location is only a if I am in the area stop as it is smaller rham my other primary locations.”

“Carman is amazing. I am back to editing this review and again. She works hard and deserves a raise. She is doing the work of three people. No joke. I am changing my review to 5-stars because the employees keep this store running like a top! Carman, in particular, has went above and beyond to serve the customers. She has helped me many times. She taught me how to use the credit card machine faster, to find things, and keeps me informed on deals and promos. She remembers me and my name too. I don't know how she does it! She is ?”
“Abraham Lincoln socks from the Smithsonian for only $1.25 - talk about a must-have impulse buy! Very friendly staff - she rang up my candy purchase and we had a very pleasant conversation about movies (nudge nudge wink wink).”

“I had the absolute pleasure of interacting with two outstanding employees at my local Dollar Tree, and I feel it’s essential to acknowledge their incredible customer service. When I entered the store, I was greeted with warm smiles and a level of attentiveness that instantly made me feel welcome. Janet was so knowledgeable and helpful, answering all my questions with patience and a genuine willingness to assist. She made sure I found everything I was looking for, offering helpful suggestions without being pushy. Her positive attitude was infectious, and it was clear that she loves her job and takes pride in providing excellent service. Cora, equally as amazing! As I was checking out, Cora ensured everything was bagged neatly and efficiently, all while engaging in friendly conversation. She was kind, cheerful, and made me feel like a valued customer—not just another transaction. It’s rare to find employees who truly make the effort to go the extra mile, and Cora definitely did just that. Their teamwork, professionalism, and friendliness are a shining example of what exceptional customer service looks like. They are assets to Dollar Tree, and I hope their hard work and dedication are recognized and celebrated! If you ever get the chance to shop at this store, be sure to look out for Janet and Cora—they are an absolute delight!”

“Clean, well kept, and well marked merchandise… and when I said yes to the grandkids who asked to go there, they put all their items down in Dollar General so that they could really get items they wanted at 5 Below.”
“This review is for latoya, who's a manager and fredy who works at the front desk.. I had the pleasure of dealing with both of them today 8-12-26. They both, we're extremely helpful. They made it a pleasure to shop there. I wish I could say everywhere I go. I have that same experience. It's just not true, Latoya and Freddie made it a wonderful experience. And I hope that get recognized by upper management for a job. Well done I will keep ongoing there because of them. There are many other dollar stores around. However, none of Em match the quality of service. I received from la toya and freddie... Thank you for a job well done”

Burlington Stores is giving its locations a major makeover. The off-price retailer has already transformed about half of its 1,115 stores and plans to complete the redesign across its entire fleet by the end of 2026. The company calls this makeover "Store Experience 2.0." Gone are the cramped aisles and confusing layouts that once defined discount shopping. Instead, Burlington is creating wider walkways, organized sections, and clearer signs to help shoppers find what they need.
Dollar General is adding more of its private label food offerings to stores, following similar moves by big retailers like Walmart and Amazon as store brands keep growing in popularity. The store is launching new items under its own labels, including ice cream, cinnamon rolls, coffee syrups, and salad dressings. The move comes as store brand sales reached $271 billion in 2024, up nearly 4% from 2023.
Daiso, the beloved Japanese retailer known for its variety of affordable household goods, is expanding further in the U.S. market. This week, the company is celebrating the grand openings of three new stores in Texas and California. On Saturday, Aug. 10, Daiso debuted an 8,000-sq.-ft. location in Beaumont, Texas, at Dowlen Towne Center, as well as two Southern California stores - a 6,319-sq.-ft. space in Van Nuys at Mid Valley Marketplace and a 5,200-sq.-ft. store in Westminster at Westminster Center.
Dollar Tree is moving into 170 former 99 Cents Only stores, marking a big shift in the discount retail landscape. The company announced Wednesday it's taking over leases in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Texas, with plans to reopen the stores under its own brand as early as fall 2024.
Ollie's Bargain Outlet just landed a great deal of its own, winning a $14.6 million bankruptcy auction for 11 former 99 Cents Only store locations across Texas. The discount retail chain pounced after 99 Cents Only abruptly went out of business in March, shuttering all 371 of its stores in California, Arizona, Texas, and Nevada. Ollie's quickly made an opening "stalking horse bid" to grab over a dozen of the empty properties.
