Amazing deals, and fun place to check out and get some early Christmas shopping done. As in any store, you just need to know pricing on items, and what your looking for, especially nowadays. Overall, grateful I had a chance to stop by this past Saturday October 19, 2024. From toys, books, housewares, health & beauty, Christmas, Halloween seasonal, something for everyone. Be sure to check this place out, as locals know, its only open for a short period of time. So if your in from out of town visiting, like I was its worth the experience. Loved the kindness, helpfulness of all staff that I had the pleasure to speak with and ask questions. Interesting tip: The nice lady at the door, where you walk in, and provide you with a clean cart, and entry drawing mentioned; how Darlington does warehouse shopping throughout the year, prior to open this location.

Teresa helped me connect with Jill from alterations to do the measurements. I'm ordering a custom Vietnamese dress (Ao Dai) and needed a lot of measurements done. Both Jill and Teresa spent time with me to do measurements and write them down. They're both literal angels. Highly recommend going to them if you need assistance with anything.

I've noticed Big Lots prices are lower than local alternatives, and frankly, lack of clothing judgement keeps me returning. They treat my pajama wearing ass the same as a senior buying $80 worth of DVDs and that means something to me. I doubt I'll buy $80 worth of DVDS from this location, but I appreciate that I can.

This Kroger was the nearest grocery store to my dentist office, so I decided to go in. I am glad I did, specifically for one reason: it had Boars Head Deli meat. I love Boars Head Deli meat. I am originally from Florida, and I would buy it weekly while shopping at Publix. My usual place to get Boars Head Deli meat is under renovations, and another place I frequent for it does have it. Neither place, though, have the large variety and selection this Kroger Marketplace has. Case in point, it sells Boars Head Rosemary and Sun-dried Tomato Ham. I have not been able to have it since leaving Florida in early 2020. I was so happy! The deli workers were very patient as I gave them a large order to fulfill on many of the Boar's Head products. Besides that, I did do my rest of the grocery shopping while here. I did find some beautiful roses for $12, that I got for my mom's birthday. I had ordered some from a flower shop and since I have another vase, I thought more flowers can't hurt. My mother loved them. Great shopping experience, and I will come back.
