It feels dirty and the prices were even high today. I'm a regular thrifter so I expect some snarky responses, and that's ok because I just think this place isn't for me. If I'm going to a thrift store, (not antiquing), and I'm looking for home goods, I want to go and look for that. Not have to walk down a long aisle of clothes to look on the shelf above the clothing for glassware. If you're a shopper who likes semi organized merchandising, you may feel the same, but if not, don't let my review stop you. The shoes were all in disarray, toys strewn across the aisle. Maybe we just missed a super busy burst, who knows. Just not for me.

The customer service is very good, they just need more staff here.

Many times I get on my husband's car and I don't have my regular sunglasses with me, so it's nice to have a cheap spare pair. They had a good selection of them, tons of shapes, sizes and colors...hey...for $5-7 each, that's a bargain. The store overall had the same layout as others, with a large section for summer items, canned goods, health and beauty care and home accent items. The line to pay was a bit long, but that is usually the case at Ocean State Job Lots.

Is this a 5-star review for Ocean State Job Lot? Yes. Am I just as surprised as you are? Probably…read morealso yes. That being said, it's well deserved. I was blown away by the helpfulness & humor the employees showed me early on a Saturday morning. Both the young person at the checkout & the woman in the back of the store (Roxanne?) helped me to find everything that I needed. Everything! "I'll check the back" has literally never ended well for me. It's a well-known joke that "checking the back" is a dead end situation. At this Ocean State Job Lot, "I'll check the back" resulted in the employee actually finding what I was looking for. Maybe for the first time in my life. Nice! A whole stack of party supplies, from tiki torches to salsa, ran me $100. I couldn't believe how much I got for the price.

I really like how the store is easy to navigate and the fact they even do pick up orders now and they do them fast this is super convenient for me as I'm always on the run. The parking lot is shared with other stores but it's huge so no worries there. They also have those self service kiosks now, so you can be quickly in and out but there's an employee always helping in that area and if you rather be rung out by an employee they will gladly help you. The store has changed though with things being higher than 5.00, but the selection of things are really great and I think they have a lot of great prices. I love the decor they sell here and tons of toys, they have a little bit of everything. Like I said before just GO!

It's a discount store and I go here when I…read moreneed cat food, a few times I've come here and wasn't even acknowledged at all, but there was a few times a few people stood out to me, in a good way. I once went in there and a young man named James immediately greeted me upon entering and asked if I needed help, he was also very sweet when he rang me out, I think I even made it a point to tell him he made my day with his amazing customer service, he's probably the reason I come back here because he was so kind and I hope one day I can tell him again. Great customer service is so hard to find, and ironically another time, a young lady named Jasmin helped me with balloons and she was patient and kind as well. But the store is sometimes hard to navigate because the isles are small, not including all the stock that's always in the way that hasn't been put away yet. The parking lot is pretty decent in size and it's easy to get in and out of here but I don't know it's a hit or miss going here. I still go but, I wish the customer service was more consistent.

They say competition is a good thing ... well, now there's even more competition with this…read moreweekend's opening of a Dollar General store in the Wizzy Wazzy (my wife's slang term for West Warwick, doncha know?). This marks three discount stores (which also include Family Dollar, and Dollar Tree) within very close proximity of each other, and just an easy walk from beautiful downtown West Warwick, a/k/a Artic, (I'm being a bit sarcastic, but it's okay, I live in the Wizzy Wazzy). Unlike its neighbor, Family Dollar, which took a long time to build, this store, which is another metal building, went up much quicker, since it's on a more level site. Of the three stores, this one possesses the best parking situation. The parking lot is huge, and is easy to get in and out of, since it's not near an intersection. Although there were a few big gaps in stock, I did not let that affect my rating, since they were probably rushing to meet opening deadline. Obviously, the store was neat and clean, and I give it props for having two bathrooms for customers. In an apparent effort to compete with the other discount stores, I saw many $1 or $2 price tags, and prices throughout the store were mostly whole-dollar figures. It's a fairly small store, and while they have a good variety of 'departments' (I use that term loosely, since there were no signs delineating any departments), selection within each category of merchandise was very limited. While you will find much greater selection in a big store like Wal-Mart or Target, the downside is that you will not get in and out of a larger store as quickly as you will in a store like Dollar General or Family Dollar, so it's a trade-off. Shopping at a discount store can be deceiving: I only paid $1 for a box of Glad zip-loc sandwich bags, but the box only contains 29 bags, while a box from a larger retailer might cost more, but contain 50 or 100 bags. A cheaper price does not always mean the best value, so you really have to know your prices. You may or may not get the best deal here, but you will at least get a good deal, and it's a lot more convenient to grab a few things if you're in a hurry. Overall, I was less impressed with this store than I was with another General Dollar store on Park Avenue in Cranston. The air conditioning in this store on Sunday afternoon was cranking, to the point that it felt like I was inside a walk-in cooler. Another customer commented it was too cold. Also, the sound system was wack: a local radio station was playing over two speakers in opposite corners of the store, but the volume was too loud, and the sound was scratchy. Between that and the overly-aggressive A/C, it made me want to shop as quickly as possible and get out (note to management - you might want to fix these things, as you want shoppers to stay in the store as long as possible). Employees seemed a bit confused, but I won't count that against the rating, because it was probably only their first or second day on the job. Another note to management: The store could benefit from some signage, because I had trouble finding nearly everything I went in there for.
