Family Dollar — Local services in Holbrook

I still like Family Dollar quite a bit and though I live right off Oak St. in Brockton, (with a Family Dollar in the plaza on Oak St. directly across Freon Raymond school), I much rather prefer to be a patron to this Holbrook store on Franklin St. The Oak St. store in Brockton is always disgustingly dirty, (though it seems that I haven't been to a truly clean Family Dollar location anywhere in the last decade- they have all become sloppy, I believe stemming from corporate's lack of strictly maintaining standards uniformly with now almost any* franchises, *nevermind every).

Oak St. is an F when it comes to Family Dollar locations and Franklin St. is more like...

The assistant Mike(large guy) smells really bad. I've shopped here for nearly a decade and I don't know how that person got hired. They are rude, lazy, and stinky. He never assists you even when you directly ask for it, and he's the only assistant that you never see actually working. Amazing management and employees, but this person really stands out for all the...
