“I recently went in and was a bit lost since it’s not my normal location, this lovely young lady Yessenia was an absolute dear! Made me feel so welcomed and I overall had an amazing experience thanks to her, she was very polite and helped me with all my questions at drive up. Such an amazing asset to have :) will definitely be using this location more often”
“I was in your store and was helped by an employee named Marcia.She was wonderful! She went out of her way to be helpful,courteous, and kind.Best customer service interaction I've had in a long time.”
“Very large perfume and cologne stock. Personnel were quick to help me and the line was very short. I bought my wife a wonderful person in there and didn't spend too much money. My little perfume for my wife is expensive as it is”
“I had a wonderful experience with Karen. She advised me about the credit card and the savings I would have with it. I was able to put the balance on the card and saved a bunch.”
“Very large store and orginized. Wide variety of home products especially for the holidays. Prices are reasonable. Great clearance items and very affordable. Customer service was good. Lines were ok could use more people on the register. Lots of parking available.”

“I love this place and I got great customer service from Angel and Shela. Thank you please keep up the great work because good customer care is hard to find nowadays.”
“Thank you to Carolynn! She went above and beyond helping me get a bday gift for a friend. She was very busy unboxing the new merch and stopped to help me look for a specific item. She checked the back and even opened up new boxes. She was pleasant the whole time even though they just got a big truck in. Me and my friend really appreciate her going out of her way!”
“I often go here. It’s the best place to get bulk snacks. Even if they’re 2 months expired, at least it was 12$. Truly the American way. Update 1/13/26 Looks like this place is closing down. This really is your LAST CHANCE.”
“Shopper world that my store when you on a tight budget.

Men's shoes husband goes church on Sundays. So he found Deals shoes for 10.00 dollars he bought four pair nice shoes. Well I got a deal also other nice items.”
“I love me some, T.J. Maxx. I can definitely find some bargains. Coffee, stationary, containers, mugs, purses, wallets, jewelry, etc. Unfortunately, I am a sistah and sometimes the clothes don't quite fit me the way, I would like them to fit. A 16 and proud of it. They in my opinion need more sizes for plus size women. We are not all they same size. Wides are appreciated too. In shoes as well. All women don't have a narrow feet. I am a proud wide when it comes to shoes and it varies between a 10 Wide or an 11.”
“This is my spot. Grew up in Calumet City. Take a couple of my Jeeps in for service down the street. The Macy's at river oaks mall is a hidden gem. The men's department and the staff is great. Huge Polo Nike and Shoe layout. I can't believe it whenever I walk in. People that work in there, yes also killing it. Too good to be true, take a trip, walk through. BTW I go back to Tavern in The Oaks days. LOL love it”
“This past weekend I was shopping and went into the fitting room and somehow misplaced my purse and noticed it mid shopping and quickly told Racquel the cashier and quickly called the manager. Once the manager came told her I tried to ping my phone and heard it and now I couldn't hear it and believe someone has taken my purse, the manager quickly went into her office to review cameras and as she was viewing Bertha from the fitting room had come up to me and stated that a customer had given her the purse and quickly came and got me. I want to shout out to Bertha (fitting room attendant) Racquel (Cashier) and manager sorry I forgot her name but was very attentive. You guys rock and thank you a million times. Best staff ever!!!”
“A quiet place to shop for all your needs. By quiet I mean never to busy to find decent parking. And not much if any rounding a corner. And bumping into other shoppers carts.”
“It is a small location with limited selection compared to other Macy's stores that I am accustomed to, but much better service. Product selection is smaller, but what was there was nice”
“5 stars for the associate who worked the register at the front near returns. She was Black female with shaved sides, braids at the top. She was very polite and patient with a rude elderly lady. After the rude elderly lady tried to tell her how to do her job (elderly lady was clearly wrong) she still took care of her and continued to speak in a soft kind voice while lady was continued to speak untruth. She deserves a raise!”
“At one point I felt like I was being followed by staff BUT I understand a little. While walking I was trying to stuff my phone into my bag as an employee was walking past. I did show him it was a phone and as small as it was there is no way I could be stealing. So not mad at all that I was greater 3 times in 5 mins. Please note, by this time I was towards the back of the store do I hear already been there for 20 mins and not 1 greeting not even walking in. So good job, eventually the feeling passed, I guess they realized there was NO WAY I could have been stuffing anything in my tiny bag.”
“I enjoyed the bargains, was just grabbing, knock off colognes, tees. School shopping and underwear and even a cheap Bluetooth speaker. A/C was working good, cause I was all over the store. Staff was nice and helpful. I Like spending my lil coins, with friendly retailers!!”
“Let me set the scene: during the power outage of the Gary Derecho of '26, we placed my dad into a nursing home (dimentia). I was out of power for 13 days... today was 14 days after the storm, and I needed to get some groceries back in my fridge so my little girl can have what she needs at my house (today, we found out she has covid, btw). So when I drove from Gary to Chicago at 7pm to drop her off so I could be back to Highland to pick up my groceries between 8-9, I had already been having a really rough month. After 2 stops to put air in my tire (because the first machine didn't work) and an unplanned run to Jewel because there was no Tylenol at my partner's house, I was running late and going to miss the 9pm cut off for order pick up. Kayleigh called me about 8:50 pm to see if I would make the 9pm window, and I said that I wasn't. I asked what happens next, and she told me that she would wait for me. Told me to come inside and she'd help me load my order into a cart so that I could still have it tonight. When I got here, that's exactly what happened. To Kayleigh's manager, and the general manager of this location, this is the type of service that should be rewarded and promoted. Yes, it's annoying when people are late. And yes, many people don't appreciate extra kindnesses and courtesies when they're extended, so it can be hard to go out of your way for people not knowing that they even acknowledge your presence. But, I've been in a really REALLY rough patch, and Kayleigh's kindness tonight healed me a little bit. So, Kayleigh, keep being you. And thank you. More Kayleighs in customer service positions. And management, give that girl a raise. And value her opinion about what you could improve.”
“I absolutely love this store. Everything is fairly priced and they always have different stuff, you can get your entire family in some nice clothes and not break the bank. All the employees are so helpful and kind. I find myself stopping here when time allows just to see the new stuff.”
“I always find what im looking for in ross the only thing that I dont care for is when the cashier check you out and security needs to check the recipte and he standing there watching everyone get checked out. Weird policy that the company has. ?”
“Stopped to get couple things. Very pleasant female cashier offered a Senior discount which I wasn't familiar with. No lines in the mornings. Realized high security presence, most likely due to shoplifting.”
“I love this store and I'm glad they put one in Homewood. Every time I come here I find good stuff for low prices. They have a good selection at this location.”
“Popped into store to buy my daughter a juice and was greeted at the door by a kind older man, asked me if i was looking for anything in specific, i said juice he directed me to exactly what i was looking for was able to get in and out with no issues.. must say very clean and shelves very well stocked”
“I love the prices here, they can’t be beat! Only complaint is the condition of the outside of the store, last time I was there the trash was overflowing at the entrance and was all over the parking lot!”
“Had been searching for brown boots for weeks, found them at Nordstrom Rack. Also customer service there was great! Young female Associate on the floor went out of her way to assist me. Cashier was friendly and mad me feel like a valued customer.”
