Yay for dollar stores where everything is actually $1 or less!!!
This location is large and despite there being boxes everywhere, they are stocked up! I didn't see an empty spot anywhere.
The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, but they are also busy. They are typically at the registers, not roaming the aisles. I think that was why there were so many boxes at the sides of aisles- they had to abandon restocking to get all the registers in use.
Though that would be something I wouldn't care for, the staff is honestly helping the customers where they are most needed and the prices can't be beat. Besides, my husband sings Joe's praises as the best employee you will find. So as far as dollar stores go, this one balances out to 5 stars anyway.
The store is very easy to navigate, has a huge selection of party supplies, cleaning supplies and a reasonable amount of pet items, food products and kitchenware. I would say the party supplies at a cheap cost are the biggest draw in general but I probably come here most when I need to restock on cleaning supplies and random household appliances that I don't really want to pay full price for. Other pluses include they sell greeting cards 2 for $1 and they fill balloons.
A big advantage to coming here is you suddenly remember things you've been meaning to get (in this case a pet brush) and then you get a big discount on it!
The cautionary tale is that it's difficult to stop shopping when you realize how many things can be purchased for a dollar, and you may get mad when you learn you recently overpaid for something by a lot! :)
Very good as far as dollar stores go- I recommend. read more
