Holiday focused store decoration. GTM always has celebratory products.
K B.

I was at GTM again! But the Lemon Grove location. This location is highly organized, with WOW deals at excellent value. Not just make-up items but food, clothing, pottery, furniture, electronics. GTM puts Big Lots and Walmart to shame. Thank you for truly being fiscally consumer friendly. Kudos to employees Reyna & Eric's. Both were delightful, patient and sanitized before each customer.

I have been a GTM'er since there first location downtown. The vibe is so much to my liking. A wide variety of interesting, quality merchandise at hard to beat prices (gotta' use coupons though)! I never had much interaction with employees until now and I can't let the recent, heartwarming experience with Charles go unnoticed. My saga started at the after Christmas (35% off everthing) sales. Got there early and found the coolest humungous rolling toolbox that stood 6ft tall. It was the answer to the chaos and loud profanities whenever I looked for a socket or tool in my garage. Guys, you know what I mean! Standing next to the tool chest I flagged Charles down and asked for help finding the price. There was no one else around. When I heard the price , I immediately said "Ill take it". When Charles pulled out his sales book to tag the item, another employee from behind said it was too late because it was sold. We were puzzled? How, when we didn't see anyone else around? Turned out another customer saw my interest and literally behind my back grabbed another worker passing by and in the time it took to find the price, had the employee start writing the sale. It was rude of the customer, and thoughtless of the other employee not to ask us first if we were interested, before offering it to the passerby. Charles knew what happened and had a lot of empathy for what we both saw was clearly wrong. At that point is where Charles became a hero! He offered to keep his eyes open for any similar type tool chests so I would be first to know when it was on the floor. He took my name and number and promised to text me. Leaving the store, I asked for the manager, Gilbert to suggest that employees should be trained to always defer to customer who was there first before tagging an item. This is where Gilbert became a hero as well... Like Charles, I was struck by his empathy and kind nature. He was forthright about that man who snuck up from behind and said he had seen him do this before. He wanted to make it right and officially instructed Charles to call and tag anything similar for me, before it got to the floor. He then extended the higher discount indefinitely until I found something. Here is where Charles went way "above and beyond" to make things right. Over the next several weeks he texted me a half dozen times with pictures hoping something similar would fit my needs. Finally yesterday more than a month later he sent another pic...and bingo! I rushed in and it was still in back waiting for me (he was purposely slow putting it out so I would have first chance). Who would have expected this a month later? What employee is so conscientious? It is simple. An employee that doesn't just care about how much he makes per hour. He cares about making customers happy. Gilbert, trust me. Charles is management material. Charles, my wife thanks you (no more profanities, haha). You are a hero! Best to y'all from a grateful forever customer. Bob

Thankfully, there isn't a store like this within a reasonable distance of my home because it featured everything you could possibly need, from food and clothing to toiletries and furniture. The prices were so cheap that they included both a discount and a clearance discount. It was a quarter of what I would have paid at Target or Walmart after using coupons from their website. Nina, the clerk at the register, was a joy to deal with. The fact that she was not only friendly and engaging but also well-versed in the current sales and coupons she could use to help her customers save money was an added bonus. In these trying times, that's a huge help. Please give a shout-out to Nina in your management team for her exceptional work in the area of customer service.

Under $40 for both

Also known as the Costco dumping grounds, there are numerous deals here. Kirkland central. Discontinued stuff to the max. Plenty of name brands also, but selection not the greatest. It's ok with me, I've bought everything here with substantial savings. Who doesn't like to save a few bucks? I can't say no to that ever, ever. Sign up to the email club and you'll get fat coupons like 30% off periodically and what's on sale and such. All kinds of random things from furniture, clothing, off-brand foods and more on the cheap. Lines can be long, people can be rude, and this location is hard to even get parking in the lot. Deep breathing helps calm the stress somewhat. Sometimes I park by the bar, Grover's Tavern(see review), the only parking available. If you happen to want more selection, try the Santee location, they are a much bigger store.

Purchased this comforter set for $47.99 then went back the next day saw the same comforter with a cheaper price $39.99 asked one of the employees at the customer service desk if I could get the credit back since it's the same item with a different price, I even had my receipt to show I purchased the previous day. I was told no, I even said I bring it back for you to confirm, still was told no! Poor customer service and not acknowledging they was wrong with the pricing. Check prices so you're not being taken advantage of. You would think it's only an $8-$9 difference thru would approve and just put on a gift card

5 gallons of pickles, $3...

What a gem I'm already excited to come back!! We were out and about and randomly decided to stop in…read moreto check out the Consignment Shack and WOW! They house "East County Vinyl" inside which has such an extensive collection of both new and used vinyls that are all priced SO well - we walked out with 5 used vinyls under $30, SCORE (two of them were priced at just $2)! We've already tried playing all 5 of them and they were in pristine condition. Walked into the back and they have a really nice assortment of furniture, art, books, a small rack of clothing, vintage decor and collection pieces alike, all of which were priced very well!! Even though the clothing rack was small, I found this really cool Padres shirt :) The gentleman working today was also very kind and helpful, he even offered to hold the vinyls we found up at the register so we could continue perusing around the store. The consignment and vintage market, especially in San Diego, marks up prices but the Consignment Shack makes it affordable for all! Can't wait to come back!!!

It felt like the old school days browsing through old records and finding great deals... unlike other stores where they overcharge. The owner was sweet and very welcoming which was appreciated. I was able to find a few vinyls to add to my slow growing collection. The other side was more of the consignment area, offering a variety of items, from comic books, to vintage Barbie's, to furniture and more. When I make it back to this area, I will definitely stop by again.

First you are treated like a criminal on the way in. The stop you and video you in case you steal…read more What the actual what is this? So much for a relaxing time shopping. The store is a disaster. Messy. Unkempt and No staff at all to be seen. On check -out 100% for real- it was 27 minutes on line. They had not less than 15 people in line all the times and only one tragically overworked cashier. He did what he could be he was in overwhelm. It would help a great deal if the manager came out and simply told the people in line they were two people short today and they were doing the best they could. They didn't care about out us at all. Three people in line left and simply dropped their would be purchases on the floor. I chose not to do that as the pair of shoes I had was the exact thing a friend wanted and they were perfect. So I waited like a cow with the rest of the in-cared for cattle. This place has gotten worse and worse over time and I just am not sure it is worth my time to be treated rudely on the way in and then to not be cared about on the way out. Just terrible.

The checkout situation is appallingly bad. It's 3:15 on a Monday afternoon. It's not full at all…read moreand the line is short. One woman has had the same customers at her register all of 20 minutes and keeps pausing to help another incompetent employee at her register. Finally, after 30 minutes, two other women showed up to help customers check out. I have no words? Come here if you have all day to waste. Also they put price tags over other barcodes so you can't scan products to see if they have toxic ingredients. That eliminates the option of buying any beauty products here, ugh.
