Cascade Station's anchors are IKEA, Target, and Best Buy. They have Marshall's, Nordstrom Rack, HomeGoods, Barnes and Noble, Ross, and more. There are a variety of eateries- corporate chain restaurants and local ones. Cascade Station was bustling on a recent holiday weekend. People seemed rushed and hurried trying to get in and out of the parking lot. Be cautious. A great thing to know is that Oregon does not charge sales tax so shop shop shop. ;) If staying at a PDX airport hotel, I would return here. 4 stars!

We happen on it while eating next door at the newer Filipino place (former home of the German sausage place). Place seems to have a variety of stuff ranging from shirts, some no perishable food, and some books. Mostly what is in here is garden and yard supply stuff. I think it would be a good first stop if you need a shovel or garden supplies. Might as well start at the lowest price and if not found move on to another store. What makes this place great is the owners who are fun to chat with, helpful and overall nice people. A good business worthy of support.

They have sales often, the owners will remind you as you check out, so be sure to scan the barcode they give you on the flier. The store is smallish, but not cramped. Several people can browse at once without getting into each other's way. Large selection of retro VHS tapes. Interesting hodgepodge of items and nicknacks that are likely priced well below market value. Main business through the door is likely from the neighborhood families in need, and taking advantage of the discounts for clothing and such. I did not look through the clothing selection, so I cannot speak to its variety, but it did seem to take up most of the floor space. All in all, if you've checked everywhere else, and you're in the area, it doesn't hurt to check them out--especially if you are a collector of something. Consider donating here before going to goodwill. The money raised in the community stays in the community.

I was pleasantly surprised there wasn't that horrible off-gassing smell at similar type places. However, they did have some kind of odd blinky holiday lights that made annoying noises throughout my visit. I toured each aisle and there wasn't anything to my liking but I can see where a new Asian restaurant could completing outfit their establishment with everything they need. It was nice to see they had real plants! I would consider returning for those or maybe some of their pots. Prices were okay, not great. According to many handmade signs, they take shoplifting seriously!

I wanted to see if there is a Kmart near the area so I did a Yelp search for Kmart, this Portland Closeout store popped up. After glancing at Yelp photos, the 20 % off Yelp check in caught my eye, and the funny t-shirts, the ones on their profile pic. I asked my personal Uber driver ( my other half) to take me. You will not miss this place, there is a huge business sign and parking is available on both sides of the lot. I don't know where to begin looking, the store is clutter but it is a good clutter. There are tons and tons of stuff. Its like a one stop shop, Things you need in Chinatown and the flea market combined together. I am pretty sure you will find something you don't need but actually need here. Just like my experience here. I had fun looking around, Lets see this shop is HUGE! There are sandals, shoes, clothing for mens, womens, children, tshirts, hats, make up, hair accessories, phone accessories, even blankets. If you can't find what you are looking for, ask the owner, she is super friendly. I recall her name is Long. I had fun talking to her and she helped me find what I was looking for. As I mentioned I found 2 items that I didn't need but needed. I saw 2 hats , I didn't think I needed it but bought it for my mom and good friend. ( they both love hats!) I came to shop not looking for hats and not needing it but then I am so glad I bought them because my mom and good friend loved the hats. I also bought those funny saying shirts to give away as souvenirs. They are pretty funny! I was able to use my 20 percent Yelp check in and I am so happy to discover a new place in Portland. I noticed the blankets are cheap, they are the really soft blankets which comes in different color, prints, and even comes with a bag. I remember those blankets, during my childhood days my mom used to buy that blanket for us and I remember they cost more than what Portland Closeout sells them for. I am going to buy a blanket next time I visit. After paying for my items, Long mentioned that her husband is at the store across. Note: Portland Closeout is in 2 separate shop. The store is in front where Long's husband manage has all household items for your kitchen, home and garden which includes furniture, plants, even paintings. This store does look clutter as well, but its a good clutter!! I noticed children's bicycles out in front. This store has EVERYTHING!! Overall, I love how I discovered this place and I enjoyed my shopping experience here. I will be back. If you just moved to Portland, Please check out Portland Closeout, I guarantee you will find products for your new place and you can thank me later!! #101/100/2017

Stalls had literal poop smeared on the walls, pee on the seats, no toilet paper in the dispensers, there was a role on the floor between two stalls.

If I were to create a list of my favorite stores in Portland, Better Bargains is one that I would deliberate intensely on whether or not I should add it to the list. It's one of those hit or miss places that has potential for finding the bargain of the century. Don't visit during peak traffic because the business is on a section of Sandy that is impossible during rush hour. The parking lot is directly across from the intersection of 102nd and Sandy, and traffic backs up such that it blocks the entrance. You'll hate your life if you get trapped in this vortex of parking hell. The store has several aisles of furniture stacked high with assorted bits and pieces, and the east and west walls are covered with a patchwork of bagged treasures that are preassembled and priced accordingly. If you are big into art and craft projects, I've found some of these curated bags to be useful. It's best to visit the store on Wednesdays and Saturdays when a 25% storewide discount is applied toward all purchases. For me, the jury is still out on this thrift shop because I've yet to find a treasure I want to show off to all my friends. Maybe one day!

Another new city, another new Dollar Tree to visit…read more My mother-in-law enjoys walking slowly through every aisle in a Dollar Tree by herself, using the cart as a make shift walker. So whenever we see one on the road in our travels, we try to stop in if we have time. Dollar Trees are all over the country, and we have found that they can provide decent supplies when traveling. This location wasn't as well stocked as others we've been to, and didn't have the greatest selection of food items. But the workers were no-nonsense but friendly and we were able to check out quickly.

I'm actually quite saddened to see my neighborhood dollar tree store in such a state of disarray…read more It was a very nice store when it first opened. Somehow, things have not been kept up, and because of this, it makes for a very uncomfortable shopping experience. And difficult for a person with disabilities.

Ross is mostly a store I frequent for some home items when I am looking for something that's not going to be used as much but is still worth buying .

Staff is alright and don't bother you and I think they also prefer when you don't bother them either.
