“I had a great experience at Five Below. The store was clean, well organized, and easy to shop through. The staff was very friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in. They were helpful when we needed assistance and made the visit even better. Overall, it was a pleasant shopping experience and we will definitely be back.”
“EDIT: The owner reached out to me, scheduled a technician to come out, and brought me replacements for both the washer and dryer! He apologized about the way I was treated and agreed that this was unacceptable. Great guy for reaching out and making this right. I will definitely continue to shop here in the future.Spent 500 bucks on a GE Washer and dryer, top load. Got home, an hour away, plugged the dryer in and it didn't work. Called and complained and they told me I could bring it all the way back to have it fixed and that was my only option. I investigated the issue myself and found the start button to be bad. Fixed that, hooked up the washer, and discovered that the hot water doesn't work. Ran an empty load with cold water before I tried to wash clothes, and you wouldn't believe the nasty gunk in the tub after only 5 min of washing (picture attached) I have several other appliances I will be shopping for in the near future and it definitely won't be from here. It's ridiculous to have to drive 2 hours round trip, plus possibly having to leave it behind to get repaired and then have to come back again to pick up items that you just purchased. You would think these things would be thoroughly cleaned and tested before sold but they obviously are not.UPDATE: the second wash in and the machine will not fill up with water. Fills for 5 seconds then stops. When you open then close the top it will fill for an additional 5 seconds then stop. Filled manually so i could finish this load and then discover it also doesnt spin, so now my bedding is wet and cant dry it. This all should have been discovered if the items were actually tested before being sold”
“Ollie's is an exceptionally priced bargain outlet. Rare, obscure, brand name products that are hit or miss, but when they hit - it's like a dream come true. Also, side note: if you are a bow hunter, they have the largest arrow tip selection that I'VE seen before. A strange amount considering their normal selections of randomness.”
“I always have a good experience shopping here. They have what I need and the clerks are almost always very pleasant, which is saying something given how hard they work stocking shelves and waiting on customers.”
“Between Stafford and Fredericksburg, this is the best Dollar Tree around. I just told the staff that they are the nicest people and their store is the cleanest, most organized, and best stocked Dollar Tree around. I recommend this 100%.”
“Thank you Dollar Tree for your unique awesome lovely useful items to look through in your well-organized store. Ty to Cashier Benjamin for his efficiency & professionalism & courtesy!”
“They have a huge everywhere price to you can compare and buy here for the deal in a hot day. Their category of get all in big can apply every angle special when go by room.”
“This store is a great location, is usually well stocked and ALWAYS has friendly/helpful staff every time I've shown u at this location. This is the store I visit if I'm looking for specific popular/sought after items that the store near me doesn't carry. This store is usually pretty well stocked like I said above, although the last couple visits here the store has been pretty barren (of certain items) like the other stores, or they get picked clean before I get there, which is so irritating when it happens multiple times. Other then that Its a great store 🙂”
“Very friendly and helpful employees. With a wide selection of items often changes daily so you have to keep checking but you can definitely find what you're looking for or what you didn't even know you were looking for most of the time for a reasonable price”
“I like this store alot! I wish they had one in sterling. It offers you everything you need from your closet, home goods , outdoors, electronics the list goes on. Its like a perfect combination of Ross, Burlington, Marshall's and a fashion outlet all in one. I specifically went for scrubs ( and they have ALOT) high recommend if in the area or looking for your work attire.”
“This is one of my favorite dollar trees. It's always clean and organized. Bathrooms are never a mess and the aisles are well kept . Customer service could be better but I sympathize with what they deal with on a day to day basis.”
“I had a great experience here. I mean literally, every thing is $1.25. Insane to me. Got so many good deals. This place is amazing! From tissue paper to dog snacks to aluminum foil…$1.25!!! This place is awesome. I’ll definitely include it in my regular rotation for sure! Nice, friendly staff. I highly recommend this place for everyday items. Great place!”
“I’m in charge of my planning my parents anniversary party and had to buy a few things. Gary made the process much easier with his great customer service skills. He was patient and kind and helped us so much. This will be my go to dollar store from now on.”
“I have always had a good experience here. The workers are kind and down to earth, and I have always gotten what I needed. Staffing is a bit low but it is what it is.”
“Employees are great. The customers on the other hand need to learn some manners. The cashiers don't control the prices nor do they put the prices up on the shelf. Its common sense. Apparently not many customers here have that and blame everything on the cashiers.”
“The store was pretty clean and organized. I don't understand why the didn't have streamers in the party section, or anywhere for that matter. Maybe I am old school and nobody decorates with them anymore. Cashier was friendly and capable! That's always a plus in my book.”
“I have been to at least 6 of these in 3 states. I love them. The open hours are a bit off, but this one did change for the better. The items are priced a bit high and many are dirty. The windows are very dirty. Glass doors are crazy high. Cabinets are priced too high.”
“staff is nice and welcoming the store is clean for the most part a little bit messy but besides that everything is well organized and put together I know where everything is”
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.
