“Let me tell you 👉 they closed the store in my town 😭😭😭 so now I travel 20 minutes away to another Grocery Outlet 🤗 Eldersburg. I love the fact that they are health conscious. They even sell beef bacon 🥓 🤭 I go for healthy items taking my time as I shop. The only problem is they will sell an item and the next time you go to purchase the same item, it's not there 🤔 like chocolate coconut milk 🤔 Anyway great low prices on many items. They sell items you don't see in regular stores. I can fo on and on about the greatness of Grocery Outlet but you have to fo for yourselves to understand the value of the items available for purchase. Just went again yesterday 😁”
“I visited this Dollar Tree yesterday and was amazed at how beautiful this Dollar Tree was! Everything was clean, organized, fully stocked and in the right place. The best part was the employees who were not only friendly but you can tell enjoy being there. I overheard them joking with each other, using sarcasm and helping each other. A rare gem to see in my experiences over the last few years. I hope this manager acknowledges their hard work and positive experience they bring to this store Keep up the good work!!!”
“I came in today and I was approached by the sales clerk named Katrina, in my opinion she is the jewel of the place. I had a large order to fill and she helped me through all of it. She deserves a raise at least. If the company lets her go it would be a shame of the company. Thank you Katrina for all you’ve done for me!! Susan”
“Brandon at this Dollar General gave me one of the best customer service experiences I’ve ever had. His professionalism, kindness, and genuine attitude completely changed my impression of the store. He carries himself with such positive energy that you almost forget you’re shopping at a dollar store. It’s rare to meet someone who truly enjoys helping people, and you can feel it the moment you interact with him. I’ll be honest—I’m not an easy person to impress. I’m extremely critical of customer service, I have high standards, and I can be pretty judgmental. Because of that, I don’t hand out compliments lightly. I’ve been to plenty of stores where employees clearly don’t want to be there, but Brandon is the exact opposite. He made me feel genuinely welcomed and valued, and that’s something you don’t come across very often anymore. If I had an opening at my own company, I’d hire him without hesitation. People with his attitude, professionalism, and work ethic are incredibly hard to find. Brandon is a tremendous asset to this store, and I sincerely hope he continues to succeed. God bless him, and I hope he gets every opportunity he deserves. Thank you, Brandon.”
“What a difference and selection they have now. Very stocked and clean. Friendly workers shout out to Brittany for the awesome customer service while checking us out today as well as Susan who was a big help when I needed something. Love the warm welcome and smiles ! && WHAT GREAT DEALS !”
“I like the variety in the store.i hope they get more cool stuff I'm 8 years old & my Auntie brings there to shop when she visits & buys lots of smacks”
“This store has more than you think it would. Detergent and dryer sheets, for a lot less than any place I've seen, not a generic brand, name brand products. Quite inexpensive and friendly people. In and out quickly. Products easily found in the store. Highly recommended.”
“I love this place i go there every time with my kids to spend their money, they have great toys, skincare, and snacks, the cashiers are not that happy when we go in but it's about the fun?.”
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.

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.
