I stopped at this TJ Maxx awhile back and was not impressed. I decided to stop in today because…read moreI'd seen some really cute TJ Maxx finds on social media, I'm really glad that I gave them another chance. Turns out, I've been sleeping on TJ Maxx! The store was clean and organized. It was definitely giving me all of the joyful shopping experience that I get at a Home Goods store but with clothes, accessories and beauty finds. I'm definitely going to add this to my favorite places to shop list. If you've got time to browse, you should definitely check it out.

I was trying to check-in at Dicks sporting goods but couldn't find the page... but I AM at gurnee…read moremills so we can start there I guess. I've been shopping this mall for years and it's a mixed experience for sure. It's painfully large for one thing, you need to plan ahead. If you think you want to just walk around the mall to shop... wear good shoes because it's a trek. I recommend driving to different sections to take some of the burden off yourself. Selection varies constantly. They keep a few outlet stores I like but a lot of stores I enjoyed simply came and went. There are more high priced shirt stores than any one mall needs, I'll say that. Service varies by store so quite a bit. I like the vans store, always helpful staff in there. This mall still has a rainforest cafe! Pure nostalgia and a good place to take kids. There's really plenty to eat here, and plenty to eat adjacent as well. They've got some movie screens and though they aren't the cleanest they do get some fun exclusive events too. This mall has its ups and downs for sure. It can be kind of magical to shop here during holiday time but the rest of the year you definitely should have a specific destination in mind.

My husband and I went to the Pembrook Corners Shopping Center to go to Caribana Island Bar & Grill…read more We had a really nice time at this restaurant and highly recommend that you go and try it. Pembrook Shopping Center also features Vitalant, Cho's Cleaners, Mama K's Pizza & Grill, Harbor Coin, Nailtique, Removery, Comfort Dental, Kumon Learning Center, and Jimmy John's. It is conveniently located across the street from Six Flags Great America. There is plenty of parking. Have fun at their many shops.

First time to this Navy Exchange store!!! Has an abundant amount of Navy clothing items,…read moresouvenirs, hats, water bottles, keychains, lanyards, mouse pads, pens, etc. Good selection, prices are kind of pricey, which is expected. Sizes are limited for certain types of clothes, though. Like the Navy emblems, logos and signs. Good customer service representatives working there. Parking can be a hassle, though. And it can get pretty crowded in there as well. So, please be aware of that.

Love it great deals for the navy family I will definitely come back one day , the jewelry ladies…read morewhere so professional and nice ,

I have stopped shopping in this mall because of the number of aggressive panhandlers and transients…read morethat solicit shoppers in the parking lots and near the entrances. It is posted near the entrances that no soliciting, etc. is allowed. I noticed that this activity seemed to increase after a clinic opened in the mall. I hope that the management does something about this activity on their private property because otherwise it is a good shopping center.

Another visit to this NEX store! Picked up our Navy Boot Camp Graduation Tickets for 11/14/24…read more Didn't wait long to get them as there were no people in line, so we were in and out of that section quickly. We then browsed around the consumer section to see if they had anything new compared to the last 2 visits.... Didn't really see much inventory that stood out. Same ol' hoodies, Sweatshirts, t-shirts, keychains and water bottles. Saw some Navy UA Hats, but were the fitted sizes. Prices were still a little high. This time around, purchased 2 water bottles and a leather wallet. First two times, we bought a whole bunch of souvenirs, so we mainly looked around this time for anything new in store.

They also sell other goods such as snacks, water, decorations, jewelry and even alcohol but make sure you have a military ID. That is the only way you can purchase alcohol.

Shoutout to Jesus for helping me select my first official running shoe ever. Came in thinking I…read moreknew what shoe I wanted, was persuaded to buy a different pair. And honestly, super happy I left with the pair Jesus recommended. Running my first 8k this Sunday and I'm excited to see where my vomero 18s take me, and how fast. Jesus, thank you!

My bf has found some great deals and unique finds here. He's a sneakerhead for his personal tastes…read moreand nostalgia. He got 3 pairs our first time here and 2 pairs the second visit. There are also one of a kind personalized items that have been returned being sold for pretty good reduced prices. Only catch is finding them in your size and your willingness for some personalizations such as initials or things. Also gotta remember that clearance items are not returnable. Definitely worth checking out if you like/love Nike.

This store is huge! It's at least 3 times as large as your average Salvation Army. Men's section is…read morebig and has a decent amount of high-fashion clothes. But the women's section takes up nearly half the store. It took me a long time to look through everything which isn't always great because they had a lot of junk on the racks. Service was nice everyone seems to always be working but all you have to do is ring the bell up front when you're ready to check out and someone will come to assist you. One of the employees gives me student discount on Mondays so that's super cool. I think my favorite part about Salvation Army are their sales. They have a sale color weekly so they can cycle through donations and usually the sale is half off. Thrift stores are a hit or miss, but this one is definitely worth checking out.

these people treated me horribly. I asked for a price on a VERY worn down side table. Water damage,…read morestains, things falling apart. There was no tag so i asked a price and the lady helping said $40 I said that's too expensive and that I'd go somewhere else because I know there's one for cheaper at a different thrift store. She bumped it down to $25 so I said sure. I paid. Waited 30 MINUTES watching workers with empty trollies passing me multiple times, so I asked ANOTHER worker. Finally a man brings one and starts loading it and that's when I'm told "oh you gotta bring your car around to the back and I can't lift it into the car" I WISH SOMEONE TOLD ME BEFORE HAND. So I drove to what I thought the back was, and then walked around to the front again because no one was there. I asked a worker and started to state my concerns. SHE CUTA ME OFF, TURNS AROUND AND LEAVES. And I see the man again. That's when they tell me "oh you gotta take the side street to get to the back back" So I walk all the way back to my car and I pull up. I am extremely frustrated at this point for how they're treating me and the horrible communication. So I show that frustration. I start loading my desk in the car and then the guy is holding onto it as if I didn't pay and is forcing himself trying to help me. I told him MULTIPLE TIMES "stop, I got this" "you said it yourself it's against policy. You make me do all this and NOW you decide to -help-???" "Leave me alone! LEAVE ME ALONE!" I had to hit his fingers to get him to let go. I'm telling them they have shit communication and have horrible customer service. Waiting half an hour to be forgotten about and having to remind them that "hey. I'm still here.... I said I was ready..... I've been waiting over 30 minutes" I usually don't get upset like this until I'm pushed beyond breaking point. Never going here again!
