“I recently visited a Five Below location and had an experience so wonderful, I can’t stop smiling just thinking about it. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by a warm, uplifting atmosphere that was made even more special by the amazing Paris and her outstanding staff. Paris is the kind of person who radiates positivity the moment you meet her. She greeted me with genuine kindness and a big smile that instantly made me feel like a valued guest rather than just another shopper. It’s rare to encounter someone so attentive, professional, and personable all at once—but Paris strikes that perfect balance effortlessly. She went above and beyond to make sure I found everything I needed, even offering helpful suggestions with such care that it felt like a friend giving advice, not just an employee doing her job. Her knowledge of the store was impressive, and her enthusiasm was absolutely contagious. She clearly loves what she does, and it shows in the way she treats every customer—with respect, patience, and warmth. And let me tell you about her team—what a reflection of her leadership and spirit! Every staff member I interacted with was friendly, courteous, and eager to help. They worked together seamlessly, creating a stress-free, fun, and positive shopping experience. Whether they were tidying up the aisles, assisting other customers, or ringing up purchases, they all did it with a level of care and attentiveness that truly stood out. It’s not often that you leave a store not only with great finds but also with a full heart. Thanks to Paris and her team, that’s exactly how I felt. They turned a quick shopping trip into a memorable and uplifting experience. Thank you, Paris, for being such a bright light and for leading a team that truly understands the value of great service. You all made a difference—and that deserves to be celebrated! ?”

“I found some great deals on July 6, 2026. The store on Ford Rd in Dearborn, with no in-store scanner, had a helpful cashier. The manager had a small attitude because I was trying to assist but overall not a bad haul.”
“One of my favorite dollar stores... I wish stores will have more cashiers... It will be a faster check out.. and I don't like the fact I have to carry my bags to my car . , because baskets are not allowed to leave store.”
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.

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.
