1) This is the place to buy a complete set of surprisingly tasteful king size sheets (w/…read morepillowcases!) for under $20. 2) A friend who is a connoisseur of martini glasses has found simple, classical ones here. 3) Around the holidays they had a large selection of, again, tasteful gift bags (good for recycling and for avoiding getting enmired in wrapping paper and tape). 4) A friend got his cheap cell phone there and appreciates the friendly and competent service. 5) When you're walking down 53rd street and the ever-present whiff of middle-class academic gentility gets on your nerves you can duck in here and buy a small bag of red-hot Cheetos to get you through the experience.

One of the best shops in Hyde Park! I bought a lot of stuff here when I still lived across the…read morestreet. I miss the big old sign that used to hang out front. You can find pretty much anything here. Small packaged food items, drinks, toiletries, kitchen supplies, packs of socks or underwear, cleaning supplies, phone cards, cigarettes (for you smokers)... I could go in and on. I still have a really nice Rubbermaid colander and a plastic mixing bowl with handle I bought here in 2002. I use both frequently. I bought a granny cart around the same time here to use as a laundry cart, still have it. My favorite pair of sunglasses were purchased here, sadly broken during an especially drunken night out circa 2004. One of my favorite things to buy here was Dr. Sheffield's baking soda toothpaste (before Sheffield rebranded as a high-end offering, you used to be able to get a tube here for ONE DOLLAR. I'd buy like 10 and they would last months. I'd also get bleach, parchment paper and stuff like that. It's a fairly busy store because the neighborhood locals all know and shop here. I still stop in when I'm in the area to get deals on certain items.

Once in, had to wait as they crowd control how many consumers can be in store at once. I was happy at the selection of shoes at this store. I found four pair of sneakers. Ended up pulling the trigger on two of them. Ultimately got a nice pair of Nike court vision shoes for $44. Very good deal. Additionally got a pair of Salomon Drx Bliss $44 (retail $160) shoes which are traditionally running shoes but they were a perfect fit. Neither shoe had a box. However I am keeping these so don't need a box. Overall good experience at the store. Several grooming items available and good selection of hard to find perfumes. Always wanted Sunflower by Arden and couldn't leave at store for $10.99. I also saw some White Diamonds perfume for sale which was a big hit back in the day.

Went in Ross's the other morning and the sign said exit at the entrance. I peeked around the sign…read moreand it said entry in exit so I chose this route. Security went to doing a jig and flapping his wings, ranting and raving! Like I was deficient in entering a phucking store. He proceeded to tell everybody not to serve me. I grab phone gonna call corporate, here comes manager and I showed her the sign which had been corrected by security. Invariably I was shopping and was not pleased with their wares. I headed up front "I hereby Trespass myself from this store" I told security if you see me approaching call the damn police. Good Phucking Bye

I just wanted 2 say that i read a review on Google that was updated June this year. The review says…read moreit's 7:20 pm & the store is ALREADY closed. But the advertisement says, it closes at 8 pm. The advertisement clearly states the store closes at 9 pm. At least the Dollar Tree located 715 E. 47th Street N Chicago does. And the review was printed on the same page that the location is displayed. I just wanted 2 share that with anyone else who might have the WRONG information. Thanks Have a wonderful, joyous day!!!

I found a cross country pimping DVD here LOL, rare and never to find anywhere else so worth it for that $5 ALONE. I even got a good Dusty Groove old school style price here for a few records, they buy. $10 HOLLA! I'm RICH! But then I spent half, so is the capitalist "game." This is in the bustling Hyde Park that is probably like Castlevania II. The freaks come out and night and you betta hyde yo kids hyde yo wife when the sun goes down. REVERSE SUN DOWN TOWN!!! Come for the records leave for the peace! Decent sandwich shop next to here Club 53, a cool shop next to it where people set up shop old school style outside Stamp' Lays Executive Shop which is cool for clothes. This area is VINTAGE for now, because a TRASH Wingstop opened up next door and gentrification of COOKIE CUTTER TRASH CULTURE is there as it is everywhere in the cheapening capitalist avoidant attachment run world. Don't get it twisted the overall population of status quo avoidant attachment parents could NEVER raise good kids so their kids will end up worse hence meaning society is in it's accelerated downfall. But "WHAT ME WORRY?!! " 0 F's given as I have no stock in it as I funnily hear avoidant attachment friends put on what they do, their FAKE AF mask of care thinking about "their kids." LOL at that and their avoidant attachment BS effort in life, love, and relationships as they can never truly do those things so their results in their own life and their kids and their overall relationships will be TRASH. Until then, go support and enjoy rare and slowly dissappearing places like Hyde Park Records an the surrounding area.
