Friday and Saturday seem to be more overwhelming for me as far as how crowded it is. So you won't catch me here on these days. But if you want good stuff that's higher value this is when it's available. This is definitely a get in where you fit in kind of situation. Everyone is doing their own thing and it's busy. There are bins in the center and off to the side they have regular priced items. You can literally find anything in here. From clothes, electronics, home decor, pet items, baby stuff. Some items are broken so pay close attention. I found a shiatsu massager, a speaker, a white noise machine, and so many other things. This place gets my adrenaline pumping. Definitely check them out!!

I went in, not knowing what to expect. Tables full of merchandise, ripe for the picking. People…read morewere everywhere grabbing at items in an orderly fashion. The items for sale were mostly boxed in their original packaging, but of course, some packages were opened with merchandise hanging out of them. I was overwhelmed at the process. There are so many people in there that it reminds me of a New York street flea market. The checkout line was long, but it moved well. There were store employees to help you if you had questions about the pick and pay process. My friends loved it and bought as much as they could. They were happy about the low prices, and they enjoyed the shopping process. If you are in the mood for pulling and picking for the best prices on clothes, small appliances, houseware, furniture than this store is the place to go to get great deals. Great for new homeowners, new apartment purchases, birthdays, holidays, etc. Please read the other reviews for more details on the daily specials and tips for picking. I was personally overwhelmed and had to leave them shopping. My friends were so happy that they took me to Krispy Kreme to repay me for the ride, so it was a win-win for all of us.

I have been to this Big Lots locations a half dozen times or so but it had been a couple years…read moresince my last visit. I found myself driving by Chesapeake Crossing Shopping Center and remembered that I needed a couple extension cords and some power strips so I pulled off of South Military Highway into the shopping center's incredibly huge and mostly empty parking lot and parked in front of Big Lots. Upon entering the store I was greeted by an employee at the cash register. It had been a while since my last visit so I quickly noticed that the store had been remodelled and the layout was completely different from what I remembered. Almost everyone is familiar with Big Lots. With over 1400 stores in 47 states, the Columbus, Ohio based company is the largest broadline closeout retailer in the United States. They sell a wide variety of items from furniture and bedding to housewares, hardware, pet supplies, clothing and accessories, toys and gifts, electronics, seasonal items, outdoor items and more. They even have a small grocery section. I wandered around the store a bit to familiarize myself with the new layout. I found it clean, neat and well organized. Aisles are spacious allowing easy navigation and enough room for two people with shopping carts to pass by each other in the same aisle. I easily located the items I needed and went to the checkout. Checkout was quick and easy, employees were pleasant and efficient. I m happy to have this Big Lots store near my home because I love saving money and this place is an excellent place to do that.

With one man lounging or sleeping in the furniture section and only one employee working the registers while three others stood nearby loudly joking with each other, I'd say they haven't earned my business. The one lady who was providing customer service offered a sheepish apology to the 8 or so of us waiting to check out but it just wasn't adequate enough to justify the appalling lack of professionalism. At least by us abandoning the plan to make a purchase, the folks remaining in line were one person closer to getting out of there. This place needs an adult to supervise the behavior of these shameful employees.

Dollar Tree in particular, this one included, have raised their prices in recent years and it shows. They should rename the chain because of the irony now. And I have the perfect suggestion: Glitter Central. Seriously, this place is always COVERED in glitter. They just slap the stuff on everything and it gets everywhere. It's all over the baskets, the floor, the checkouts, and then yourself if you're not careful. Glittery, glitty, glitter! I can't stand the stuff if you haven't noticed by now. The quality of the products aren't always great and they used to cut the spine of CD cases so that the artist or record companies wouldn't make money off the sells there. Clever. Other than the shoddy stocking, less-than stellar staff, and did I mention the GLITTER on every square inch of the surroundings, along with the disappearance of several desirable items have made this one a hassle to deal with. For many reasons, this place does not "sparkle" with me. (Despite all the glitter.)

Their entire AC system is falling apart but they won't fix it because the store is in a low income area as opposed to their Virginia Beach location where if the AC was broken they would have it fixed right away for THAT clientele.

It had been at least a dozen years since I had set foot inside a Dollar General but an online…read moresearch for a hard to find product I have been searching for led me to Dollar General. The product is Hot Shot Flea, Tick & Lice Killer With Odor Neutralizer. I don't know why but this particular variety of Hot Shot spray has become hard to find at a reasonable price. I had been buying it at a store that no longer carries it and my online search limited me to Amazon ($16+), Chewy ($5) and Dollar General for $3.75 per can. Ding ding ding, we have a winner! I dropped by this store on my way home from work on Friday afternoon around 4:30 PM. I broke out the Yelp app to check in but there was no listing so I clicked the "add a business" button and got busy. There are two entry and exit points, one on Battlefield (divided road) and one on Campostella. At peak traffic times getting in and out of the small shopping center can require a bit of patience. The private parking lot is of adequate size but is not in the best repair. The lot could use some patching and paving, it's not uncommon to find stray shopping carts and some debris in the lot. It is also not unusual to find individuals hawking their wares out of a truck or trailer in the corner of the lot nearest the intersection. Walking into the store is kind of jarring. There is product everywhere. Due to the wall of products displayed you cannot walk straight into the store but must follow the wall of product displays until you get to the end. Once in the store you will find very dirty tile floors in desperate need of stripping and waxing plus you will discover aisles crowded with items on carts or in boxes waiting to be put on the shelves. You will also find a very wide variety of products across many categories at pretty decent prices. To this point I've mostly trashed the store but there are some saving graces that bring the rating up to three stars. It's time to (in the words of Johnny Mercer) "accentuate the positive." As I previously stated, prices tend to be really good on most items and they stock an incredibly very wide variety of products. To me, it's worth a star, just for them to have the Hot Shot product I like. Another big plus is the friendly staff. I was greeted when I entered the store and thanked as I departed. Check out was efficient and pleasant. Oh yeah, there is also free Wi-Fi. I shall return.

There were a few empty spots with the clothes and shoes missing on this visit. But that was only with dressier shoes. They were several choices of slippers and clogs. I also noticed it was extra warm in there, so that cut down on how long I was willing to stay. It felt better outside almost. Smh. They need fans or something if the ac is choosing to not work on any given day!! They had some cute slide shoes and clogs. I love rhinestone and they had a few options, but if you have a foot larger than size 8, you may have a time finding shoes. They normally only send 1 set of shoes in the bigger sizes. The store has food products, body care, household items, pet supplies, and more. The lines are hit or miss though. Sometimes it's busy but others you're going to be waiting a while. I do wish the carts were more reliable. I fought to go left while my cart went right. We just couldn't come to an agreement, so I put it back!! Lol. All in all Roses is the budget friendly version of Ross or similar stores like that. The prices are reasonable and affordable. The parking lot is spacious, but can get a little packed at times. Even with my complaints I know I'll still return. Check them out!!
