“I've only been shopping at this location 4 times and today's finds were so worthwhile. With Easter coming soon, my goal is always to gift my sons with something to remind them of their dad and the love he had for them before he passed away. Ocean State Job Lot didn't not disappoint! I found food from Italy that I could only find at an Italian shop in Pennsylvania. What a great experience not just for me but to remind my sons that though their dad is no longer here, they can still enjoy things that he used to buy for them. Price is on point as well. Customer service was fantastic. Krystal (cute pink and blue hair!!) was super talkative and shared a few things about her shopping experience there as well. She was great at what she does, made me feel comfortable talking and left me with a smile. All in all a great shopping experience!”
“Local institution, overall clothing selection skews older but there's definitely something for everyone. Absolutely worth checking out if you need clothes reasonably priced.”
“Great prices on a variety of random items. Hard to describe OSJL, you just have to step inside and explore! Similar to Ollies for people in Mid Atlantic. The game changer for OSJL is Crazy Deals and various promotions which can give you an additional 40% back as a gift card.”

“Manager changed, a little more staff, and the store looks much better.
Now if only customers could stop abandoning and/or hiding the things they decide they don't actually want to buy. Just hand it off to a staff member who can put it away.”
“As someone mentioned this store is tucked into the corner of a little plaza that features a Roche Brothers that I regularly go to on Rt 138 in Easton. It's so unassuming that even myself who will check out any store anytime have never been compelled to enter. Generally I enjoy rummaging through the bargain bins, dollar stores and discount outlets etc so I'm kind of surprised I've never walked in. Today though I spent a ton on food and on the way out remembered that I had forgotten laundry detergent and not wanting to backtrack for 1 item it clicked in my brain that I could get a cheap stop-gap bottle at the Dollar Store. Upon entering the store it did appear a bit dim and dingy but not sure how to really jazz up a store that depends on nickels and dimes. I did walk every isle as you never know what cheap gems awaits and in fact did find a dish towel, a candle, bathroom spray and my cheap laundry detergent. I really would like to know if there is several dollars difference in the quality and performance of this generic brand vs say Tide. Canned green beans major brand at Roche Bros 1.99 here $1 and good till 12/21. Who knows. Very impressed with Jody at the register who was completely wiping it down, the belt, credit card processor everything. I ask her if it was due to the corona-virus scare that's in the air 24-7 and she said no I do it for every customer as long as there is no line. Hmm Maybe she knows something about the clientele that I don't but I did appreciate it. I would definitely go back when looking for "dollar type items" (although I am waiting to see if my cloths are going to disintegrate.) One thing if you have little kids say age 3 to 8 they have at least 3 long racks of toys and books so you may be able to get them off your back and buy some immediate gratification for a few measly bucks.”
“This was the best Dollar Tree I have ever seen. They had beautiful items. I even found the color picture frame that I had been looking for!! Will go back again definitely.”
“Nice little spot to grab some cheap toys for the kids. They’ve got a good mix of candy and all kinds of random stuff — always fun to poke around and see what you find.”
“I know the prices have been going up across dollar tree stores. I still love shopping here though. Fun socks, cute seasonal cups, hair scrunchies, and random essentials! I'm also a suckered for freezer section.”
“Your on a budget and just moved into a new place, and you want it to at least look presentable. This is the place for EVERYTHING; *CLOTHE *Kitchen *bedroom *rugs Etc, i can keep going. 100 bucks got me a nice area rug, curtain, oh and this is where I find all my cool legging y'all ask me about. Under 10 bucks!!”
“I think I'm addicted to it 😂 fantastic prices large variety of items 💯 ♿multiple handicap parking spaces very courteous cashiers cashier was super nice young man very friendly very courteous very welcoming”
“Store was clean and well stocked. Prices are fair and they have lots of summer items currently available. My favorite about OCJL is their variety of snacks and foods from other countries. I love that I can experience other countries without breaking the bank.”
“This place is great lots of good things and great prices and the worker are very nice except the old man he always follows me around watching me like I’m gonna steel I spend a lot of money there been there a lot of times not 1 time would I ever think to do something like that he needs to retire the other worker are great”

“Great for all my household need’s,Went in the other day, the guy on the floor helped me. Little patience because he doesn’t speak good English / a little he does but he was very helpful with helping me find something that I need. Everyone is friendly”
“I find that the staff is extremely friendly in the store this is my third time going there the store was stocked well and clean. The cashier was extremely friendly thank you again.”
“Needed some last-minute supplies and decided to give Dollar General a shot since I’m new out here in Brookline. The store was easy to find, and they had what I needed right on time. Everyone was super helpful and made the whole thing stress-free, which was just what I needed. Definitely glad I stopped by on my first try.”
“The staff are nice and friendly. The selection of some good runs low or out from.time to time, but it is otherwise a great dollar store location, one of the better ones in this part of the state”
“One of the most well organized DTs I’ve ever shopped at, making it easy to find what you’re looking for. Sometimes the checkout lines are long, depending on the time of day, but the staff never seems frazzled and is always friendly and pleasant.”
“Very convenient place to get what you need at a discounted price especially hair products. Owner is very friendly and keep the place neat and clean.Sn: be sure to park in the back or you’ll get a tix in 2 seconds haha”

You will find all your home needs here.
They sell clothes and shoes here.
Along with hair care .
Check it out for yourself.
They sell all kinds of things you would need.
Whether it's for home. Or self or others.”
“I like the store overall. Usually just go in for snacks, milk, etc.
However, one of the staff is addicted to his phone and cant stop looking at it even when he's cashing someone out at the register. Instead of handing the person their receipt he just slaps it on the counter cause he cant look up from it. Half the time he's outside smoking/vaping and doesn't even see the customers lining up at the register. The regulars know what I'm talkimg about! Lol! The thinner taller fella. And I apologize if he's special needs.”
“I gave it four stars because it's a great Store you can find anything in everything there.But There is a lady that will ask you not to touch unless you buy it. But other than that, it is a great store.”
“Don't underestimate $Tree. Major chain stores sometimes lack items that can be found there at unbeatable prices. Quality, variety, affordability, availability, and reliability of products are what make $Tree sustainable through the years. The household offering is innovative. The snacks line decent. Thanks goodness their locations are popular and a life saver!”
“A couple of weeks ago, Kathy and Yuleisy provided excellent customer service! They both helped me find some balloons and filled them up with helium! I was panicking because I thought I was not going to be able to find the balloons I needed for my event. However, both of these ladies provided awesome customer service with their patience and a great attitude. They officially saved my day! Thank you Kathy and Yuleisy for the great service you both provided that day!!!”
“I was so impressed by how clean and organized this store was. I didn't want to leave. I actually loved browsing and finding great products! Most dollar trees are a mess. Every one was very nice, the staff worked as a team to ensure customers were serviced and the register was covered! I will shop there again, even though its farther than the store just minutes away from me. Definitely an enjoyable experience!”
“I love all dallor trees so very reasonable prices awesome, I can shop like I'm rich, I'm not rich I have lots of grandbabies and great friends I buy gifts for at dallor trees in my community..”
“I visit for work a lot of locations this one is quite cool,even if they close earlier than he others it's makes the trip enjoyable and full of this you didn't thought you will need .”
“First off, we are all familiar with a Family Dollar store. This particular location is convenient for me because of being in the Roslindale village area. I go here for all sorts of general needs for household goods.They have good prices on laundry detergent, random hardware items and grocery items. I am very particular about what I buy to eat and there's only a few items I buy from the grocery section. However, it's a good store and I always compare prices from a couple stores to get the best deal. Especially in this economy!”
