Ross Dress for Less — Local services in Honolulu

One of my favorite stores. They carry famous brands of merchandise. Most are closeouts, discontinued models or or original overpriced "dead" stock. But you can get great deals if shopping carefully. I've purchased clearance shoes and boots from Under Armour, Adidas, Nike, Puma, Fila and Reebok. I also like their nice selection of earbuds and headphones from Skullcandy. Great clothing from Nike, Under Armour, AL1VE, Hurley, Marc EcKo, Calvin Klein, Puma and Adidas. Good slippers from REEF, FLO JO's and Nike. Be careful, some are overpriced and can be purchased for considerably less at other stores. Unsteady supply of car accessories and tools. Good brands from Stanley, Covercraft, Skil, Bosch, Dewalt, Corebilt and Makita. I would like to see Ross carry name brand battery powered hand tools. Poor selection of garden tools. Fair prices of linen, bath towels, pillows and sheets. Be careful as some prices are higher than regular department...

I do enjoy a good Ross Dress for Less for some discounted shopping but this one unfortunately is not my favorite. It's just okay. It has all your usual Ross type items but in the end it fell short in what they had to offer. This trip I was looking for a dog leash and a 2 qt put with pour lip and straining lid. Although I did end up finding what I was looking for, there was only one and it was a awkward shape like a cauldron. Very odd. Next I found a leash but couldn't find one that had a loop, etc. to attach a loop bag holder.

It it's always clean and organized. The line moves fast and the workers are nice and usually helpful when looking for something in particular. At least it's at Ala Moana so parking isn't really an issue. Plus you have access to the rest of the shopping center. Oh yeah, dogs are allowed so it's always fun to bring ours to go holo holo....

So I just left Ross at Ala Moana shopping center. The manager there was not cool at all. I picked up a glitter box with no price, an employee on the floor said she’ll leave it at the register for 99cents since no price on it.. after standing in a long line we end up at a cashier, she then says she can’t sell it for. 99cents and it’ll cost $4.99 since it’s an accessory.. I’m not sure what that means and said the (nice and helpful) gal should’ve have seen her first before telling us 99cents.. Turns out the cashier was the store manager. So sad when the store manager is like”oh hell no” I don’t care if there’s no price on it and one of my employees said a price that i don’t like.. I’m not here for customer service. What a Scrooge.....
