Today my husband and I had the pleasure of meeting Melissa, who is by far one of the most kind, understanding and professional individual's you'll encounter!!! We're purchasing a new home next week. At the moment Big Lots has a great promotion - spend $1000 get $200 off. However, the timeline was not accommodating with all moving parts. I was afraid, I would miss the sale price because of scheduling. However, Melissa was assisting another customer and informed she would be right back. Not a second later, with the hand truck in tow, she stopped and said, "How can I help?" I explained my situation above and told her that I could pay for the furniture today, however I would not be able to pick-up until 8 days out. Without hesitation she replied, "We can hold your pieces until 10/10." I was floored, happy and relieved!

She is a clear asset to this store and to the customers she assist. THANK YOU MELISSA! YOU'RE A ROCKSTAR IN THE...

Used to shop there regularly (at least once a month) to stock up on things...been there twice since the change - first time, I couldn't find the items I needed - dog food and cat food, so I went to Walmart. Second time, I got Nonni's and left...went looking for the cream my mom loves, but left without it as I could not located it. Hate to go to Walmart for everything I bought at Big Lots, but there is no other option....other than the Dollar Tree...
