They also had dumbed down on the adult selections. Lots of children books. I have bought some books but the store managers need to do some drastic changes here. The rest of the stores look great but I come to search for books and candies for my wife.

Yet musty people sat on it like they were at home-yuck. Not like big box store were you can sorda tell they enforce the policy or clean/ sanitize the place on the regular. Just a huge mess to go through if you have the time or patience. Like my sisters said, things are marked down but they *could* be marked down cheaper... take that as you may. Pros: Value was alright certain stuff seemed like a bargain some didn't. Service was cool, the cashier was nice/ helpful.

It's okay if you care more about cost than quality. It looks like it is more of a closeout store…read morefor old items not sold elsewhere. I bought a cola here while I was waiting at the dps nearby. It was VERY flat and watered down. I looked on the bottle for that black due date that bottlers typically put on the side somewhere and can't find one. I should have walked to the gas station as I was going to do before the dps employee encourage me to go here. If you are buying cheap toys for your kids, paper towels, toilet paper or other items you buy to throw away? Then maybe this is okay, but if you are wanting a snack for your long dps wait then go to the Kroger or Chevron nearby.

Came with a small coffee cup and said I was not allowed to have that in store. So we walked to a…read morestore next door so I could finish my cup. THEN we tried again and I had a small plastic bag with a little book in it. They said they needed to take the bag away in order to shop at the store. Again I just left and gave up. Silly policies, if it's that bad invest in better cameras and more security. Just a really weird place. Won't be back. Bye

This place is a gem. I've been going here for years - they have the most selection and you'll never…read moreknow what you'll find. If you're in the area definitely check it out. Everything in the store is new, but not everything is $0.99. However it is clearly marked and it's usually not over priced. I found some cool fish tank supplies that would've cost me $$ at Walmart. We also got my niece's party stuff here because they have all the cool characters. I found one of my favorite paints/stains here and refinished half the furniture in my living room for next to nothing. Highly recommend going and browsing through this place.

This is the place to go for party supplies. No matter what I need last minute, this place ALWAYS…read morehas it, and I keep forgetting that. Son's birthday party was on a Sunday and I forgot bags for party favors. I went in Friday evening and EVERY TIME they have the theme I'm looking for. This one was construction, last time I needed something last minute, it was legos, and for my daughter, rose gold plates and rose gold polka dot napkins. They have baby shower supplies, balloons, wrapping paper and bows, bags of all shapes and sizes, all kinds of party necessities like napkins, plates, cups, bags, table cloths, etc. They have never failed me, and it's CHEAP. Forget Party City. The only drawback is that you have to look at the packages to make sure the count listed is actually there (ex. "8 count" plates I've gotten before only had 4 or 6; "12 count" bags have had only 11, etc). It's not that all items are this way, just some of them, so be sure to actually look at the plates from the side and make sure. Also don't think I had luck finding good picture frames and went next door to Dollar Tree for those.

I can't begin to comprehend why people are racist towards a certain group of individuals, they tend…read moreto act and treat this particular group of people like they don't belong rather than actual customers. This very instance is what my sister and I experienced at this Burke's Outlet and mind you the first Burke's Outlet store my family had visited was in the state of Mississippi where racism is everyday life and not once did we ever receive racial tension at the store in the sip, however I would have figured in Texas it would have been different, but I guess doesn't change where you are located in the states especially in the south. As we walked in, we aren't greeted rather we were stared at by the cashiers and customers that were being checked out. (Though, everyone else who walked in was greeted, "Welcome to Burke's Outlet!") Also, throughout our shopping whether it was browsing the earrings, clothing, or changing out in the dressing room, there was an announcement on the intercom about if customers ever feel uncomfortable to notify the cashiers, and even when I was testing out a purse by placing my belongings in the purse, there was an announcement regarding that, "concealing accessories were against the law". I for one wasn't doing anything wrong while shopping, but there were two young boys who were. One was skateboarding in the store, even had the audacity to confront one of the store associates if he was "being an inconvenience" and the lady said, "what was inconvenience mean?" So, the boy said, "am I being bad?" and the lady responded with a NO. However, when my sister and I was shopping in the store. All of the associates treated us like we shouldn't have been there. While we were looking at the soaps, one of the associates rudely reached over us without saying excuse her..how rude! I guess she never was taught manners. In Deer Park, I guess it isn't normal to see any other race than white, Caucasian. On top of that, the ladies restroom was beyond disgusting! It smelled like raw poop like baby's poop which was very nasty to endure while using the restroom. I did spot a really cute purse here, but after the associates suspected that I was shoplifting. I didn't purchase it. It wasn't worth it. My whole experience was horrible and I never will return to this store. I wouldn't advise anybody who isn't Caucasian to visit this store; the store associates are beyond racist and rude. I will take my further business to the location in Seabrook instead.

I absolutely love Burke's Outlet when it comes to buying earrings especially hoops. Because, I'm a…read morehoops kind of girl that's all I wear no matter what style or size. I strongly dislike when I am encountered with racism. They have a good selection on earrings shop by Natasha, Carole, or Kiana those girls will hook you up on some real cute earrings. The clearance earrings are garbage and prices are too. First of all, I'm not greeted by none of the sale associates. Ok, do not greet me. So, this location has a high rate for crime. While I shop, I'm constantly taunted by a repeated shoplifting message. As I browse at the earrings, one sale associate barge her way over my basket without saying excuse me. My sister and I were receiving all sorts of stares and eye rolling. When my sister transferred all of her belongs into a purse to test it out. The annoying message returned this time it was a unseen officer saying concealing merchandise is illegal. But when two teenage boys enter the outlet. Both boys were reckless, one skating on his skateboard inside the store and another was singing obnoxiously loud & off tune. It should have problematic when one teenage boy angrily confronted a customer in her face. I didn't hear none of intercom say crap diddletely to them. That lady was scared out of pants. All I saw was a sale associate giggle behind a shoe rack at the whole ordeal. Bunch of bull crap! Rude & immature sale associates. If the facility is being constantly monitored then why was the shoplifting messages targeted against us and why wasn't a horseplay message wasn't played for the teens. Stupid store!

Ugh. Big lots. I really, really, really, REALLY wanted to like this store because I've always loved…read morebig lots as a kid. But no, I hated it. Especially the furniture selection. HATED. there was almost nothing which would be an "oh well maybe it was a sale and they sold out" but no! Because this is my 2nd time within a 6 month period coming to this one. It's terrible. My family was like mon you've been here before & im arguing with them like no i haven't. Walk in "ohhhhhhh we have been here." Very unremarkable. They barely had any seasonal decor either which is unlike stores these days. (I mean seriously, they have x mas stuff rolled out in aug at some places.) But somehow the pearland & webster stores don't have this problem. Maybe spread the shipment around? It wouldn't have been so bad had we drove the 20 minutes and got something out if it but def not the case.
