My curiosity finally got to me when me and the Mrs were recently at 84 South. I knew by the name it was a discount store, but what can you get for $5 or less? Quite a bit actually. The variety of what they have surprised me.
At first entering i felt a bit out of place. They definitely seem to cater to a younger crowd, (however later when we checked out, the manager told us there are plenty of folks my age that stop in). As we got a little further in I was getting into the shopping experience. It was fun checking out the nostalgia. We both got a kick out of the giant bags of Swedish fish and the huge Hershey Kisses for sale. We were also surprised to see Packers and Badger gear. I couldn't help but notice other folks enjoying themselves too.
What they have... Sporting goods, novelty t shirts, arts and crafts, toys, games, clothes, jewelry, charging cords etc for cel phones, iphone cases, snacks, candy, novelties, books, gag gifts, star wars, legos, and a whole lot more!
Yeah it's all cheap stuff from China, but what isn't these days? You're sure to get your money's worth. I would skip the dog toys just because who knows what that stuff is made of.
The store was clean and bright with spacious aisles and was NOT destroyed from shoppers. The people working seemed nice, especially the Manager, who was more than willing to help/answer questions. read more
