I was surprised when leaving the bank to see Big Lots was back open. After they had apparently…read moreclosed all of the stores, it seems someone else bought them and has started reopening them. This certainly isn't a store I shop at regularly by any means, but it's a great place to get heavily discounted items, snacks, cheap gifts for the holidays. We popped in real quick when we saw they were opened, and got a few things. But, just like before, they offer everything for food, to house wares and decor, to cleaning and gardening supplies, again, and heavily discounted prices. Perhaps everything is not the best quality, but for what it is, it's worth checking out. One downside is, the selection is constantly changing based on what they buy at closeout pricing, so if you see sometime, that's the time to get it, because it may not be there next time you visit. The staff is a bit of a hit or miss, it's clear they don't love their job, but need the pay check, so take everything for what it is, and don't expect the cheeriest of employees when you visit.

My friend and I went today. We go lots of times. You never know what surprises you might stumble…read moreupon while just browsing. They have some great deals and some overpriced. You should know how much an item costs elsewhere to get the best deal. I have had my eye on this outside lounge chair since spring and it is on sale from $99 to $60. They have offered this price before and I didn't purchase it. (Too rich for my blood .) if they really want to reduce the price more then I would totally be interested. Here are a few pics of items that you just can't find anywhere.

Love Wayfair. Not a fan of the Wayfair Outlet. Drove about an hour to check it out, and man it…read morewas a major disappointment. A lot of the furniture has cosmetic damage and/or is just terrible looking. Some of the couches look like it could have came from the 1970s. Not saying you can't find a hidden gem, but I would not drive a long distance to search. I did find a nice looking fire pit with Adirondack chairs that I would have purchased, but it was black only. Unless you have it under some shade, black chairs in the South means burning your ass in the summer. Most of it is junk nobody wanted to buy online, returns or has minor cosmetic damage. Check the Outlet's web site out before driving here. Think I am exaggerating? Check out my photos.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE!…read more LaKita has been such an amazing help when it came to finding what is perfect for my home. I have been here several times in the past week and have gotten pieces of such great quality. My first item was a 4 chair dining room chair set for $135, which was perfect with my dining table thrift find and for my home. Even my cats love sitting in the chairs. My second item was a nightstand set where I had to put everything together (this is where I met LaKita). I had questions about the measurements and went above and beyond to allow me to open the box to take the exact measurements I needed. My third item was a dresser that fit my coastal theme with seashell handles I have my eyes on. She definitely remembered me, followed up with how the nightstands were going, and was glad to see me back there. The combination of the quality in these items I have bought and LaKita's customer service is the perfect reason to keep returning to this store for my future needs, whether it's furniture pieces or simple DYI materials.

When entering BohoBlu, you are always greeted by cheerful ladies that offer to help you with…read moreanything you may need. The store offers cute clothing, accessories, and various other nick-knacks. The prices are quite reasonable, and they have a wide array of cute tops and dresses. There are limited pant and shorts options, but with all of the adorable other selections you don't typically notice. The thing that sets BohoBlu apart from other botiques is their level of customer service and care. They treat you like a best friend that tries to help out with your shopping trip. They start dressing rooms for you, give their opinions freely, and find the sizes and selections you're looking for. I'm not a big shopper so they make it easy to be a customer. I'll leave most of the shopping to my mother, but I do enjoy my rare trips to BohoBlu.

Had some time while in Greensboro, so I visited their Hamrick's location. As compared to some…read moreother locations, the store seems more spacious and organized. If you have never been to a Hamrick's, the main feature is economy pricing on clothing. They have a large ladies department, with a fairly good sized men's department as well. There are also departments for home decor, kitchen, and "as seen on tv" gadgets. I found a few things, such as men's undershirts that were at a good discount. Check out employees were prompt, polite, and professional. Another nice feature is a seating area for tired shoppers (or husbands that got dragged into the store!)

Not somewhere I shop day to day, but easy to get to in a pinch without breaking the bank!

I called, one person said we can look up your purchase date if you are loyalty member. I was.

I have a piece of unusable JUNK that I will have to trash! Will open and check products before bringing them home. UPDATE: Took bedspread to laundry mat hoping to release the knots.
