If you know how to shop, this store is right for you. It's 3.5 stars, but there's no 0.5 - so just 3 for the long shops and 4-5 if I'm not in there too long.
Pros They really try to be fair, where if I don't like something I buy, they'll let me get something else. They have lived up to the price marked on the shelves. vegan friendly - they got 'huel' - 4 lbs of meal replacement for $5! I can't get even lb at a regular store of just protein for less than $20. Vegan yogurt, milk, bars, drinks, chips, and more. The goods here are super cheap (what costs $6 is $1 here, $2 elsewhere is $0.25 here). Some of the people who work there are very nice and understanding. One of them says they're trying to be vegan, so they bring in vegan food - which is awesome! They have rare food too - for so cheap. I found green walnuts. Such a delicacy, as one time I wanted to eat green hickory nuts and didn't get to - so I can't believe I found something really close to that. some of the customers that go there have interesting conversations that I like listening to (I mean, I tell them I eavesdrop, but I can help it :P ;) - it's not like customers don't come to me when they listen to my conversations - I mean - that's what makes it nice - when everyone learns from each other)
Cons: far for me some employees smoke some prices are not bargains (the half/half Ripple was $2 there, but $1 at the 99 cent store. The tide pods for $10 are about that in Target - maybe even cheaper there) minimum $5 credit card purchase for no fee some food I got was expired (I mean, it's edible, as it's dry. I mean, it's the refrigerated food that can go bad before the expiration, but the dry stuff is fine years after it). But one of the employees double checked with me to make sure some food's not expired - so I think they're trying to work on it. watch the labels for toxins - as they have it here (the navitas superfood has lead in it - TERRIBLE!) no refunds. I bought headphones that didn't work - and just got an exchange. they don't put their return policy on the receipt - unprofessional the place can be a mess. I try tidying it up a little - as it looks like someone just swung a club and made everything go everywhere - but I shouldn't have to. they keep bringing stuff in - so it's difficult to squeeze into the small rows, and with people - even harder. This is actually a pro though - as it makes for a real, authentic shopping experience - that you can't get online. they'll charge extra for labels, like 'organic' the store owner heckled my parents for finding something that was open and blaming them for that - when they didn't do it. Also thought that Americans don't know much (implying they aren't smart or taught anything in school) - even though I knew the answer to all their geography questions. Some 'dumb' person I was I guess. It's going to be a while to come back - just for that. the management seems too pushy with making the people at the register ring up quickly - which isn't cool and seemed a little sexist (but...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThe owner of the store is so incredibly rude I went today and I bought an item that said it was $1.99 and when I went to the cash register they said it was $4.99. Anyways, I went near the door of the store to check my receipt to see if anything was wrong and the owner came up to me and said do you have a problem with the price, he said it with a bad attitude as well. And I said no I'm just checking my items. Then I went to the cashier to check a price for the item and I tried to return it. Then he came up to the cash register and started telling me to choose something else or get a credit store card, I told him I didn't want any other items and he started to yell at me to not come anymore. And that I want to make a problem over checking my receipt. If I can give this store -5 stars I would do it. He is not normal it seems as if he ran away from the...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreJust bargains is a mixed bag. If you don't mind shopping in a place less organized, more cluttered than Walmart. If you don't mind finding some items that have run passed the expiration date or close to it. BUT, you DO want some amazing deals, save some amazing money, sometimes items less than a dollar, love finding great deals, then this is your place. This place sells overstocked, clearance, unsold, discontinued, and some close to expired food, and merchandise at incrediblely low prices. I go here maybe 3 times a week just to see what items they have found. But be careful, those items won't be around long. And when they're gone their gone, only sometimes wiil the item return.
The employees have always been friendly.
I truly love the adventure.
Give it a try. I guarantee you will find some...
