Five Below — Local services in Athens-Clarke County Unified Government

As their store name suggests, Five Below only carries products priced $5 and cheaper. This store is the perfect place to get some cheap gifts for birthdays and holidays. They have an excellent selection of toys for younger children at the back of the store. There is also an extensive selection of cheap shirts, accessories, and shoes towards the front. There is a makeup section in the middle. There are posters and paraphernalia for many fandoms (Harry Potter, Sherlock, Game of Thrones, etc.) near the back. They have a decent selection of headphones, chargers, cases, speakers, and other general electronics. There is also plenty of beauty and health products, as well as home decor (perfect for tweens and teens) and little trinkets. Towards the register, there is a good amount of candies that you may not be able to find much elsewhere. There are candies that I grew up with that I haven't seen around for years, and even candies that were around in my mother's time that I had only heard of. There's even foreign candy. There are also chips and drinks within this section. You Can also find a small selection of cards and gift wraps for giving presents.

The candy and cell phone accessory sections were the most diverse and plentiful but there was a very nice balance throughout of other items that are seasonal which I thought was a nice touch and provides a reason to shop there often because the items are ever changing. If you haven't checked this store out go there. You will find something you like and it's likely going to be...

Both online and the hours posted on the store front claim the store opens at 10 am on Sundays. It is almost noon and the store is not open. That is completely unacceptable. Multiple people were trying to go to the store. Most people, like myself, only have a limited amount of time in which they can get all of their shopping and errands done for the week. By not being open when you claim you are you are wasting people's time and also gas. The only reason to go to this store is for specific things you can't get anywhere else. You would think they would realize this and be open at least when they're...
