JOY 1 South Bay Galleria — Local services in Redondo Beach

This place is absolutely AMAZING! If you're in this end of LA and just looking for something to do, it's honestly worth going into the mall just to take a walk through. The front entry is essentially a candy & snack store, with all kinds of japanese, thai, vietnamese, korean, mexican and other exotic & foreign candy, sweets, chocolates, drinks etc.

I may or may not have spent $120 on foreign snacks I was so excited....

The best part is everything is priced SUPER reasonably too. WAAAAY less than you'd find anywhere else.

Walk on through towards the back and there is pretty much everything. Pharmacy type essentials, makeup, hello kitty plushies, hello kitty backpacks, disney collectibles, souvenirs & other foreign treasures that are hard to find.

Walk WAY back and you get to the home goods & houseware section, where you can grab everything from ziplocks to brooms to headlamps & car accessories to cleaning supplies

Such a cool spot & 100% 1 of a kind, boutique shop run by an incredible family. Definitely check it out. You won't be disappointed.

While walking in the South Bay Gallery on the 3rd floor, I found Joy a general merchandise store. I really did find joy. This store is really a fun store to shop. I would say it is JoAnns, Dollar Tree, 99 store, Michaels, Home Depot, The Party Store. and possibly other stores I do not know of. I was there for a fair amount of time. There is such a wide variety of items and even food snacks to select from. And I found many interesting items that I did not know I needed. The prices are great so I needed the items. If something is too expensive, I might not need it.

The staff is quite friendly and customer service oriented. The vibe is both professional and positive. On my first visit, I met Joanna. I really liked her. At that time, she educated me on the brand and it offering. I promised to return. During my recent visit, I met Daniel the manger. He was truly a delight to speak with about the Brand and a few other things. I had witnessed his speaking with another customer. Daniel makes the customers feel welcome. As Joanna made me feel welcome and want to return. I am pleased that I returned and found more to...

My 9 years old stood in line to buy a small pack of sour patch. When an Asian lady (maybe the owner) open a new registration, she didn't take my son. He was standing right in front of her. Instead she called the other family who stood on the other side near another register. I asked my son in front of them if he was standing in line he said yes. But all the adults, including the staff, said nothing and just proceed to cut him off the line. Then when it was his turn to pay, the sour patch cost 2.99 instead of 1.99 as marked on the shelf. When I told them that, they checked and said they could give us that price. My son handed $2.bill, they didn't give back the change. I asked is it $1.99? The staff answered yes. I asked then we got 1 cent back? She didn't say anything and walked away. It's only 1 cent but I felt the way they treated my son was very ageism, and I didn't like the way they do business like that. It is not them to decide to keep the customer's change, not...
