Stopped in the other day and the store has gone downhill. Lots of empty space, regular products out…read moreof stock, For what it is, a $1.25 item store, my expectations are compatible, I'm not expecting Nordstrom level customer service or quality, but do expect products on the shelf. Large parking right in front of store makes it convenient if you are on this part of SE Powell. It is a sketchy neighborhood so that could be the reason why store is not as kept up.

It was Wednesday night, and I must say, the cashier I spoke to was phenomenal. I was having a terrible day. This may be tmi but the visit was spurred on by my grandmothers death, and I was in a very bad mood on Wednesday night. I came in just to buy an energy drink. And just the energy that cashier gave. She was incredibly respectful, a little jokey. It just brought some light to my night that was goin so terribly. I went to a couple dollar trees and similar stores on my trip, but that was suprisingly the highlight. I didn't catch her name but it appeared she was the only cashier working. Please hire more employees like her, because even the smallest thing can make someone's night. 10/10, will come to the same location again next time I visit my family

Beyond satisfied!! Our custom Stanton furniture came in exactly when our excellent salesman David…read moresaid it would. It was delivered and set up in less than 30 minutes. The quality of the product exceeded expectations and we look forward to many years of use and relaxation. We have been living in Portland for five years and wish we had found City Liquidators sooner. We have a small craftsman cottage with limited space and David really helped us pick the right furniture for our space. If you live in a larger house the choices are endless. Not just furniture but antique bars, neon lights, classic oversized film and music posters and artwork. You can get a lifesize Harley Quinn or John Wayne wooden statue, credenza's or wardrobes along with any kitchen supplies and small appliances you might need. New and vintage choices abound. When you go plan accordingly as there are multiple floors of merchandise to choose from and free lollipops for the kids to keep them busy. Even if you don't buy anything, the first trip you'll be blown away by the selection and you'll definitely come back to get something unique the next time. That's what we did. Also, and most importantly, no pressure from the sales staff. They let you wander around and really look over anything you'd like. As I like to say you don't get the hard sell on the soft couch. Have fun.

This is another neighborhood business that was so odd-looking my roommate and I decided to visit it…read moremostly out of curiosity... And curious it was. We were greeted by a friendly man who must be the owner. He immediately started in on what items he had, how many he had, and what deals he would make. Ok...deals are good, right? So we start looking around and saw large bags of all kinds of dog food, which were next to some cheap plastic kids toys, which were adjacent to some tampax which were across from a display case of glass pipes for smoking. The rest of the store (which is super-small a la some NYC-style neighborhood bodega) is full of various food stuffs and household supplies...again some name brands which caught our attention because hey, stuff is expensive these days! So, my roommate started throwing some stuff in a basket, and I started checking expiration dates. A HA! Just what I thought. Some things were expired by a year or more! Granted, I'm sure BBQ blue cheese pringles and movie butter popcorn are packed with enough preservatives to stay 'fresh' for quite a long while.... Still. You get what you pay for. We bought some microwave popcorn, canned pepsi, and salad dressing. Alas, I apparently picked up the wrong bottle of dressing on the way out, and didn't realize until I got home...yup, expired. I give the two stars because I have seen so many people who looked of the 'down and out' variety holding homemade signs for this business at the nearby corner. I think it is really a honorable and creative way for a small business owner to create jobs for the community. And hey, if you need a random glass pipe...they did have some deals!

Wandered in thinking this was a fruit and veggie market and was immediately hit with the visual…read moredisarray, I realized it was grocery liquidation store. Since I was already there, I ventured through. Huge bags of shredded carrots, prepackaged bags of chopped salads and other produce nearing expiration date for just a $1. I grabbed two. Containers of cut up watermelon, cantaloupe as well as whole bananas and other produce very cheap. Picked up an onion to use for that night's dinner. Didn't want to buy anything I couldn't use immediately as these veggies are a day or two away from going bad. Shelves and carts filled with canned pantry items, cereals, breakfast bars all nearing expiration - good for families that go through these items weekly. By the checkout there were some Chocolove and Theo chocolate bars. These are high end chocolate bars that usually sell for $3.99 a bar and here they were just a $1 with an expiration of Dec 2021 so I picked up two. That alone was worth the stop! Items move fast which is why the store is in a constant stage of unpacking. Huge outdoor area with produce located close to street - don't forget to check it out. In addition to produce they had 6 packs of bottled water, huge containers of pretzels, bags of dog food and other items.. Very random, no rhyme or reason, seems like items are placed where there is room. Friendly owner and staff, everyone chatting with everyone; clearly there are lots of regulars. They take credit cards. Parking out front. I missed the turn into the lot so parked around the corner by the Goodwill and walked over. This store is exactly what it is. A market that takes in items close to expiration and liquidates on the cheap. It's not New Seasons! So as long as you set your expectations and you have a need for these type of items, it's all good. For me, this was a one and done.

I'm giving this business five stars for the simple reason that they provide such radical discounts…read moreon virtually everything in the store that they enable some of the very poorest people in Portland to survive. There are no other stores in town that are so affordable, not even close. So, they're providing an important service. But if you choose to visit around this time, know that the employees there could really use your kind words and your support, because they very recently trapped inside the store with an active shooter, who entered the establishment to attack a person they knew. Many shots were fired, and the young guy they were after was shot in both of his legs. Some of us went into the back by the loading dock to avoid the shooter and to help the victim remain calm, because he was terrified. Shoppers and employees looked for places to hide and be quiet, hoping not to get shot. I was a bit traumatized from the experience myself, but I had to go back and check to see how the employees who were there that day were doing, and they were all traumatized. One very nice woman who usually cashiers at the front of the store told me that she was scared to work there anymore and had given her notice. This isn't the business's fault, that some random kids decided to follow someone they were after into this store. They still deserve support for the service they provide helping the poorest of the poor to survive on what little money they have. And to be sure, this isn't a normal occurrence there. Usually, shopping there is a good experience, with employees and other shoppers being peaceful and polite with each other, so please do give them your business... and as I said, if you encounter employees who were there on the day of the shooting, ask them how they're doing and offer as much positive energy as you can. It's very strange that after the people in this store were traumatized by this shooting, yet it still has never been mentioned in the news...
