We went to visit Ollie's Bargain Barn. I hadn't been there in quite some time, so noticed many newer things I hadn't before. Ollie's is a bargain-hunters dream-come-true! Prices are reasonable. Pay attention, though! If you aren't up on Ollie's info., you might not know, that... everything in the store is not brand new! They have items, like small appliances, that are "factory refurbished," meaning... they have cosmetic (i.e. a scratch, a dent, etc.) damage or a small piece broken & reattached. Open the box & inspect the product. If it's damage you can overlook or repair yourself, decide if you are o.k. w/ the price as is relative to the damage. You might want to inquire as to whether the ticketed price is final, or if they would take a little less for it. If it is final, can you live with that? If not, keep looking. If, say, you come across a package of ten bar soaps, but 2 are missing, would you pay full price... which is $9.00 for 8 bars, instead of 10? Again, you can inquire as to whether or not this price is final. If not, perhaps you could ask if they would take $7.00, saving yourself $2.00. That's entirely up to you. A friend of mine bought many items, only one of which price she questioned. It was some kind of pen/marker stain on one edge of a shirt (she knew she could get the stain out). The cashier said the ticketed price was final, so my friend passed on purchasing the almost $10.00 shirt (she knew she could purchase a $3 tee in the men's department at Walmart, that was much nicer- and clean!- than the tee at Ollie's! Actually, she could buy THREE of Walmart's shirts for ONE of Ollie's, that had a stain!). So, while Ollie's has an array of different products, many of which you won't find anywhere else, be vigilant & bring a small calculator to stick in your pocket, to figure out a specific discount/or a cell phone with data so you can search online or other stores to see if you can get a better price. This will save you much money in...

Read moreI visit here often to visit Planet Fitness. I have been going 6 days a week for 6 years. Ollie's has some great bargains. You never know what you are going to find. Lots of fast food places are nearby. A new Aldi's is right down the the road, along with Piggly Wiggly. Three good Mexican restaurants are nearby too. There are many more bargain businesses and a mini mall. If you're looking for something you could probably find it here with a Walmart and Kohl's just over the hill. There's alot to choose from. If you're in the area ,...
