“Purchased all our kids stocking stuffers here AND a bunch of Hello Kitty gifts for my soon to be 8 year old who requested a "Hello Kitty" themed birthday. Ordinarily character birthday gifts can be expensive, but 5 below keeps it budget friendly”
“This five and below was more organized than most I like the way it was set up it was really nice but I don't like how they have self checkout and they're still taking jobs for humans we need to survive also”
“Friendly staff, fresh meat. It’s a no frills local grocery. Great for a quick stop on the way home when you need a couple of items. Don’t confuse it with mega corporation grocery store.”
“For the last few visits I have cashed out with an employee by the name of Ann Marie. She's always kind and offer a warm greeting. She keeps a smile on her face and fully engage me throughout my tranmission. Today the store was extremely busy. Ann Marie was as if it was a normal day. I've been in management in retail for years. Employee's like these in this day and time are hard to fi d and keep.”
“They are always friendly and kind they don't over pack my bags the only thing I dont like are the poles on the carts sometimes I buy alot and need to take cart outside to my car get rid of poles I am 79 and have a bad knee”
“I love everything about the store except the new girl they hired. I purposely won’t go into the store if I know she’s in there. She is rude, pushy and look inconvenienced when I walk in or she had to stop what she’s doing to cash someone out. The 2 ladies that are usually working are awesome! I know they need a break and days off, but she is the total opposite of what they need.”
“Ok. This is how it works. Corporate wants us Asst Mgrs/Mgrs to STOCK, CLEAN, Do PAYROLL, do DAMAGES, AUDITS, PAPERWORK, to RUN to the cashiers EVERYTIME there is a bill check, to print a reciept, to exchange something, to give them smaller bills, to cash them out, to cash them in, to CATCH UP the line the ONE cashier we have at a time, can't handle. We are NOT cashiers, so when we open and half the line comes over to our register..we panic..because we HAVE so much more we need to accomplish or Corporate penalizes us by cutting our hours. Thats why we have one line, because if the Mgr/Asst Mgr needs to step away, their line wont have to go to the end of the other line. It's like we can't win. Either customers are complaining about long lines or bare shelves, or the bathrooms aren't pristine. Also, this is the Dollar Tree. Not Macy's. So customers acting as if it is, need to stop! Also, don't come in if you don't have the time! EXPECT LONG LINES! If you don't want something, bring it up to the cashiers. We will not make you feel bad about it! Also, don't come in and buy one thing to break your $50 and $100.00 bills you just got from the ATM because you can't figure out how to ask it for smaller bills. We are not a bank!”
“This location never disappoints. My family and I actually enjoy visiting this location to shop. The staff are all very kind, patient and helpful. The store is almost always put together nicely though things get moved around a bit, the new remodeling has been a great addition. My interactions are always good and to be a local store it’s a plus that the customer service here is pretty consistent. I highly recommend”
“I found everything I needed for gift-wrapping - and some cool extra items to add in. They recently added a few self-check stations to make paying for things quick and easy - and The help there are genuinely nice real people!”
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. On Saturday, Aug. 10, Daiso debuted an 8,000-sq.-ft. location in Beaumont, Texas, at Dowlen Towne Center, as well as two Southern California stores - a 6,319-sq.-ft. space in Van Nuys at Mid Valley Marketplace and a 5,200-sq.-ft. store in Westminster at Westminster Center.
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.
