They have an odd assortment of furniture, rugs, and other home goods at great prices. Walk around the store and see what kind of deal you can find. Tell them you were referred by someone and they even throw in an additional discount. Totally not what I expected, nor would I have thought to go here, if not referred by one of my friends. Walked out with a couch and a glider for the front porch and didn't feel like I'd been taken for a ride or spent a small fortune.

They had some awesome merch (I bought a postcard and sticker), and I got to meander through the aisles of cool "stuff."

These type of stores are notorious for that, waiting for the right buyer mentality, both endearing and slightly insane. Is there anything I personally wanted here? Not at all. Even for free? Still a no from me. Where others in my group tempted? Oh yes! The funny socks, big game fish scene, and a fashionable classic lounge chair all got attention. I understand the appeal and can easily recommend driving over from downtown Peoria to check out this junk church.

I have had two bad experiences with Big Lots since April 2024…read more 1. I bought a patio rug online and of course paid for it. When I got to the store to pick it up the manager instructed me to pay again at the counter. I explained I had already paid but he insisted. Said their system was down. I inserted my credit card and paid again. When I was at the store yesterday I asked to speak to the store manager regarding another issue and an assistant came up front instead and didnt know anything about my issue so I proceeded to request the store manager once again and once again he sent his assistant. His assistant said he was busy. Too busy to speak to a customer??? So my issue yesterday was that I purchased a mattress on 7/6/2024 at 1:45 pm during the store 1 day sale of 30% off. When I purchased this mattress I was told that for every $100 I spent I would receive a $10 coupon. I did receive a coupon for $20 off of $40! I was not told that I had to spend additional money to receive my coupon earned. I ended up having to walk over to the store manager myself to speak to him. I asked him why he didn't come speak to me initially and his response was he was busy trying to get back $1100 that he didn't have. Poor customer service? As I was speaking to him I brought up the issue about the rug and I would be safe in saying he was the store manager that helped me but of course he knew nothing about it. He went on to tell me that any purchase made online does NOT reflect in the store! What???? My suggestion is that the employees be trained and get a new Store Manager! I also noticed on my last two receipts dated 7/6/24, that Big Lots wants me to take a customer survey for a chance to win $1000. It goes on to say the sweepstakes ended on 6/22/24. Please explain I've been a devoted customer to Big Lots for years in Illinois and Florida and I'm really upset with the East Peoria, Illinois store. Sincerely, Vicki Grashoff customer: 6559053

This Big Lots in East Peoria has a great selection of household items! Good place to find last…read moreminute gifts, also. I like the wide aisles that have plenty of room to pass other shoppers without invading personal space. The store clerks are very friendly and helpful. One lady in particular, whose name is Cindy is an exceptional worker in the cashier lane. This lady made me aware of the discounts offered and coupons that are emailed to me monthly. I never had a cashier that let me in on the perks like Cindy. The other clerk that has been at Big Lots for several years is Joy; she knows her stuff. I go for her lane when it's not Cindy's day. I try to go through Cindy's lane when I have my Japanese aunt with me. She said she never had a store clerk that she understood. The furniture department is pretty quiet and peaceful. I tested out their mattress selection one day and fell asleep only to wake up to nobody knowing I had nodded off. I like the fact that the employees mind their own business and don't stalk and follow me around like I'm going to cause shenanigans or something. The layout is efficient, and assistance needed is minimal. Good place to get gifts or "a little something" to share with a friend. Overall, I think the shopping experience is stress free, and get in and out easily.. UNLESS it is SALE day! Go either early or late because all the grumpy women seem to shop on that day. I stop at the liquor store next door to fill up my mug, or Brass Key before shopping when it is SALE day. The whole routine is much better.
