I have been curious to check out this place since I drive by it so frequently. I got my chance…read moretoday when having to wait for tire service across the street. I was pleasantly surprised there wasn't that horrible off-gassing smell at similar type places. However, they did have some kind of odd blinky holiday lights that made annoying noises throughout my visit. I toured each aisle and there wasn't anything to my liking but I can see where a new Asian restaurant could completing outfit their establishment with everything they need. It was nice to see they had real plants! I would consider returning for those or maybe some of their pots. Prices were okay, not great. According to many handmade signs, they take shoplifting seriously!

I wanted to see if there is a Kmart near the area so I did a Yelp search for Kmart, this Portland Closeout store popped up. After glancing at Yelp photos, the 20 % off Yelp check in caught my eye, and the funny t-shirts, the ones on their profile pic. I asked my personal Uber driver ( my other half) to take me. You will not miss this place, there is a huge business sign and parking is available on both sides of the lot. I don't know where to begin looking, the store is clutter but it is a good clutter. There are tons and tons of stuff. Its like a one stop shop, Things you need in Chinatown and the flea market combined together. I am pretty sure you will find something you don't need but actually need here. Just like my experience here. I had fun looking around, Lets see this shop is HUGE! There are sandals, shoes, clothing for mens, womens, children, tshirts, hats, make up, hair accessories, phone accessories, even blankets. If you can't find what you are looking for, ask the owner, she is super friendly. I recall her name is Long. I had fun talking to her and she helped me find what I was looking for. As I mentioned I found 2 items that I didn't need but needed. I saw 2 hats , I didn't think I needed it but bought it for my mom and good friend. ( they both love hats!) I came to shop not looking for hats and not needing it but then I am so glad I bought them because my mom and good friend loved the hats. I also bought those funny saying shirts to give away as souvenirs. They are pretty funny! I was able to use my 20 percent Yelp check in and I am so happy to discover a new place in Portland. I noticed the blankets are cheap, they are the really soft blankets which comes in different color, prints, and even comes with a bag. I remember those blankets, during my childhood days my mom used to buy that blanket for us and I remember they cost more than what Portland Closeout sells them for. I am going to buy a blanket next time I visit. After paying for my items, Long mentioned that her husband is at the store across. Note: Portland Closeout is in 2 separate shop. The store is in front where Long's husband manage has all household items for your kitchen, home and garden which includes furniture, plants, even paintings. This store does look clutter as well, but its a good clutter!! I noticed children's bicycles out in front. This store has EVERYTHING!! Overall, I love how I discovered this place and I enjoyed my shopping experience here. I will be back. If you just moved to Portland, Please check out Portland Closeout, I guarantee you will find products for your new place and you can thank me later!! #101/100/2017

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.

It starts off bad with pallets and other trash in the parking lot. Inside, stuff is close to or past the sell-by date and it shows.

It's my go-to store and I don't even need to shop elsewhere. I find great things to try and also to gift to others to try all the time. A lot of things do come and go, but there's also a lot of consistency. You may not find a specific say brand and type of bacon, but there will be a lot of options to choose from. There's still a lot of options for pantry staples, meat, dairy, produce, you name it. I actually enjoy shopping here because of the environment (lots of friendly customers too), prices, and variety. Everyone I know is jealous that this is the GO I get to go to since it's so close (they are not all the same).
