Big fan of this store!…read more Now that I am a pensioner, stretching my dollar is vital to my budget. Before retirement, I had never considered going here. I guess my preconceived notions of what it might or might not be caused me to overlook this hidden gem. This store has a little bit of everything from groceries to housewares to games to party favors to cards to seasonal items -- just about everything you might want or need at only $1 each. I send a ton of cards: birthday, sympathy, thank you, contratulations, etc. At a regular store, even Walmart, five cards can bust your budget. Not so here. The cards are not castaways. They are Hallmark and other name brand cards, the likes of which would be found in other stores, BUT ... they are only $1 apiece. The employees here are friendly and helpful, the store has always been neatly blocked and stocked. The seasonal items are especially cool to look through (I got some cool Santa ornaments for only $1) Did I say "only $1"? You betcha. Try this out and you'll be hooked.

I don't know why this place has such amazing reviews. It's a crapshoot. It's extremely hot in there…read morethey don't have any AC. They have two large fans blowing around hot air. Today was seven dollar day and I don't know how they can charge seven dollars when there's price tags on some of the stuff for like two dollars but it doesn't matter if it has a price tag on it they charge seven dollars an item. A lot of the stuff is damaged, broken, people throwing stuff around damaging more stuff. You can tell it's Amazon returns a lot of stuff is labeled used. Some of the boxes you can scan the barcode to see what it is. But bottom line it's Amazon returns so if you want to take that chance if an item actually works or not or you're paying more than what the item is worth than go for it

He wanted tarps, and picked up a few items, I was in search of books, they have a huge collection. We got lost in the book area and hubby and I had lots of fun showing each other what we found! Way fun!!! I found hubby's favorite gummy bears. SCORED The check out was smooth, and the cashier was really sweet, nice folks working. The place was ravished in areas, very busy. Employees were all about straightening up.

It was my first time to Ollies and I was super excited. Started to fill my cart up, feeling the Christmas shopping bug and holiday spirit. Then I get to the rug section to look at a few rugs. A lady a few feet away from me kindly asked the young employee if he could help her look at a rug because it was under a pile. He looked at her like she asked him to dig to China on his day off, then he marched over and said, which one? I'll jut let you imagine his tone of voice. She showed him the rug and this is when I couldn't look away. He said, and I will quote almost exactly, " That is an ugly rug. You want that one, you actually like it? She said, "Well, I like the rug. He said, Whatever you want, but that's an extremely ugly rug. I couldn't help myself, so I had to ask if they knew each other. She said no. Shocked, I said, "If you were my son, I would give you a piece of my mind, you should never speak to a customer that way. A few men that were walking near me popped up and agreed with me. What a bitter miserable human being to want to speak to another person that way. He just smirked at us. I had to walk away because it was too crazy to confront any further. I said my piece. I was told there were no managers to speak with, so I am here. It's a shame, because I believe in giving businesses a chance to resolve issues on their own before going to the internet, but they don't care. I was super nice on the phone and told them I just need to make Ollies aware of the situation so that they could speak with the employee about his behavior or maybe he need to go home and sleep his anger off. Someone needs to have an adult conversation with that kid. Either that or he is trying to get fired or in a confrontation. I was born and raised in East Tennessee. People don't treat each other that way around here. That is what makes Knoxville so special. Okay, I have said my piece and hopefully Ollies brings up ethics and the importance of kindness in one of their meetings. It's the holidays people! P.S. I put back all the things that were in my cart and left. I will never be back. Zero stars

Every cashier that I've come in contact with, makes great conversation, beyond "did you find everything ok". This team truly cares. I wish I knew the mans name that rang me out on Register 3 @ 12:08pm today. He was such a delight. He was getting to see his son after work today. He was beaming as he told me, and it made my heart so happy.

This being said I want to clarify mostly for decorations and other inside goodies. I have found some pretty awesome deals on outdoor furniture a few times as well. I just wish it was more organized and everything was crammed packed in. The bathrooms are always a mess, so mommas and daddies if you have a little one try to keep them out of the bathrooms. They have a lot of summer items out right now so if you're looking for beach towels, cute summer pillows or even some outdoor seating go now. Because these items fly out the door. A little tip start by going down the main aisle and come up each side aisle from back to front. Look on the bottom selves as well don't skip the places you think won't have anything, people love to hide items. Have fun shoppers
