You never know what you may find in Five Below. For me, it was a rhinestone wristlet keychain, $3.00 Sally Hansen Nail strips, 3 bottles of nail polish for $5, and a double usb plug for both my iPod and cell phone. Initially I went in there for one of those funky fuzzy ottomans with storage, but there were none in sight. So of course, I walk around to see what this place has.... and if you're like me and get giddy and excited over silly goofy things, you'll love this place. I saw a polka dot plunger for the bathroom and squealed with joy. I didn't get it, though, but the fact that it exists makes me happy! The store isn't sloppy or a mess like a dollar store. It's big, bright and clean.
HOWEVER -- please NOTE -- they do not give refunds for ANYTHING. I did get a mini USB-hub and it wasn't compatible with a few of my devices, so I went to return it and was asked if I wanted a gift card or a credit.. I was stunned. Yeah - there was the sign at the register. So that's what made me get the other items. If you're a nail polish junkie like me, go for the the $3 Sally Hansen nail strips and the 3/$5.00 bottles of polish. They also have a ton of nail files and buffers, too. Lots of fun stuff. Stock up ahead of time for stocking stuffers!
Also, they have a ton of iPhone covers. I don't own an iPhone, so this bugged me, as there were no choices for other phones. They had some decent covers. But that's why there's ebay - to find a cover for my Nexus S.
Friendly associates, also. Next paycheck - I'm heading back! :)
Take $10-$20 and go treat yourself to a bunch of fun shit! read more
