    “Everyone's nice and helpful. Wish they'd bring back the canned apple slices. I have only 1 thing that might be considered on the downside. If a cashier is very slow in adding or packing, the customers waiting get EXTREMELY agitated at the lack of speed, sometimes being/saying something rude. I haven't observed any Dollar Store employee get upset with a customer. I asked a cashier if there was any negative push-back from customers when the prices went up by $0.25. She said only one customer had an item thrown at her, with most just grumbling in the beginning. I said, that's terrible treatment especially when you weren't personally responsible for the rise. No one got hurt, but people can be unpredictable and proves the customer isn't always right. People should behave as adults and realize that employees of the/any store aren't in any way responsible for the stores pricing policy. My experiences with every employee has been very helpful and what keeps me going back.”

    “Ollie's is a store you have to go in and have the time to look around because there are a lot of good deals in there but you just got to look and you got to know what you're looking for. If not, just look you'll find something and that prices aren't bad either”

    “Costco Optical. I've been getting my glasses at Costco for years. I've used Costco in Palm Beach Gardens Waterbury Connecticut This is by far my favorite Optical Department ! Summer helped me and she was incredibly positive and knowledgeable. She helped me choose the right size and recommended the correct shape and shading for my sunglasses. Mind you I walked out with three pairs of glasses for the price of one pair of glasses at the fancy Optical Shops. I will always get my glasses at Costco.”

    “I stopped in twice on New Year’s Eve and the older gentleman who’s typically there as cashier is always uplifting and making jokes. I miss customer service like that and I hope he gets the recognition he deserves.”

    “Very nice newer store located in its own area. If I had one complaint it would be when you are coming from the west and need to make a left turn into the drive area to the parking lot. There is no turn signal and you are on a single lane road. A plus it's that there is a spacious parking area. Staff were nice, and greeted us when we came in. Store was well stocked and everything clearly marked as far as pricing.”

    “This store was crazy busy yet it was extremely clean, the staff was overly friendly, and even the manager was willing to admit to their mistake and make it fast and easy to fix. The store was extremely busy and they accidentally scanned the most expensive item I had twice, I don’t notice until I was back on the car but when I went back it the cashier I was working with wasn’t at the front so they called the manager who happened to be the one that wrong me out. She listened, understood, admitted tot heir mistake and resolved it on the spot with 0 issues. Was a great shopping experience and a fun store for my kids to go shop for each other.”

    “The people that work there are always very kind. On Sunday no one showed up for work except for Robin and Carmela and they had to open the entire store and work all by themselves. Needless to say they had quite the lines and I’m sure the rest of their day was a spent on the feet day checking people out all day long day. I’m just like to say thank you to them they’re so nice and they were so friendly and so helpful. They deserve the 10 stars. Not 5”

    “The manager and or employee named Ken that works there goes above and beyond for the customers to ensure they are finding what they are looking for, and or need assistance. He was very kind and welcoming especially considering I have little boys whom have a ton of questions when he was stalking the toy area. Very big selection.”

    “I gave a five because never have I ever been in this one store that the person working didn't go out of the way for me. The staff is always friendly and helpful. I'm a senior and there have been times they bent over backwards for me. I have problems with the corporations coupon system, it stinks and the return policy has not been good. But the people in this store are all the best I have ever had constitently.”

    “First of all let me start by saying I’m a white choclate lover !!!!! I usually go to the Dollar General store on Colman Street in New London ct. because they usually have the White chocolate M&Ms which I am a fan of !! Well the other day I went into this location to get my candy and couldn’t find them anywhere ?! So I asked the clerk who always helps me Caroline if they are out ? She dropped what she was doing and looked for them she finally spotted them behind the counter I was one happy customer!! Now Caroline went above and beyond for a customer which makes her AWESOME in my book !! Also the cashier Lauren was so helpful too”
