I have to reduce my stars to 3 from 5, because Target did away with their DEI program. Most…read moreAmericans are boycotting Target, but with my location, I don't have many choices for shopping. My other choice of a department store would be Walmart and I'll be damned before I make the Walton family richer. Departments I always shop are; Greeting Cards, Health & Beauty, Kitchen and Home Linens. The groceries are pretty good, too. If I'm shopping and need a few items, I grab them. It saves me from stopping at the grocery store on my way home. Even before the before the employees were instructed to smile at customers with a 10 feet radius, I always thought the associates were friendly here. Depending on who I see working as a cashier, determines if I use self-checkout. There are two cashiers that I really like and will wait in line, so I can interact with them while checking out. I wish Target would start their DEI program back up. When: January 10, 2026 Why: Cleaning Supplies

I called them and they said they had dog food there to be picked up, I told them I would be by Friday to pick up 9ish am. Store was closed, no signs in window to explain. I went back again this morning and store is still closed with no sign of explaination. Does Dollar General want to reimburse me for my gas and time?

There wasn't even any evidence that it had even been there. I walked the mall and saw the empty spaces left by Claire's a bankrupted chain and the old location of Bath & Body Works. Yes, at least BBW moved across the street to a new space in a renovated strip center. Olga's restaurant closed after almost 40+ years, but a local restaurant bought the recipes. At least we'll be able to still enjoy those delicious Gyro's. For those interested, the stores I saw that were still open are; Ross, JC Penny's, Slackers, Famous Brand Shoes, Finish Line Shoes, Slackers, Spencers, Maurice's, Jan's Hallmark and Hayner's Public Library. To my surprise, there were a lot of mall walkers. I didn't know people still did that. I'm really surprised, that they're doing it in a mall that is almost empty. Guess it beats walking in freezing or super hot temperatures. When: January 19,2026 Why: Wanted to shop Poputopia (popcorn store)

A fun store to find things that you didn't know you really needed, at an affordable price…read more It's a great place to find party favors for a kids party and it is absolutely the best place to buy candy to sneak into the movie theatre. Five Below is also has a good variety of affordable greeting cards and gift bags. In addition to the favors for a kids party, they also have lots of toys that will make it easy on Santa's Christmas budget. They also have T-Shirts, travel sized toiletries, cleaning supplies, books, pet supplies and exercise accessories. Honestly, it's a store that has a lot of different things, at cheap prices. They have lots of items for electronics and iPhone gadgets, but those items I'd be a little scared of. If you are a big buy USA shopper, this may not be the store for you. Almost everything in the store is made in China. There are no cashiers, you check yourself out and you get no employee discount.

I used to only go to walgreens because of the service... it's a shame when you can feel the uncomfortableness when you walk in to a business, no smiles, no greeting of good morning.

This is the closest store to our home so I depend on it. Last time I went in there were broken lightbulbs down an entire isle, the line was clear around the store- one cashier, who was on the phone on speaker with a friend- and the isles were congested with boxes and merchandise, we couldn't even push our cart down an isle. Management needs to get this store in proper order. Very disappointed! At least hire staff that are kind to paying customers!
