I have been here on 2 occasions I LOVE how the shop is set…read moreup Really nice items MANY name brands They have a $2 rack, yup...all items on the rack are only 2 bucks!!! Tons of shoes, jewelry, purses, jammies, shirts, skirts, pants & dresses. It is like a little hidden gem on Robinson Street. They are always doing a fundraiser of some sort and I have to say, the items that you can get in here are a fraction of the cost you would pay elsewhere. Highly recommend a stop in :) I might have to later in the week!!!

I love the new location right on Main Street. It feels larger and is much brighter with all the…read morewindows. I have not had the negative experience that 1 reviewer wrote about consigning here. I have brought a variety of items (clothing, shoes, purses, & jewelry) and they have been wonderful to work with. I drive from Providence to this shop because I think they are easier to work with than the shops in PVD that are expecting all designer brands. You, like most consignment stores, have the option to donate unsold items or come back to pick them up yourself. You have the option to spend dollars earned (like merchandise credit) or be paid by check. New consigners should make an appointment. If bringing in 15+ items, they do ask that you schedule an appointment too. This store has every day-type items with a mix of designer items too. I will keep bringing my items here and looking through what is available.

This store is about a year old. Large parking lot. But a bit cramped inside. They have a large…read morerefrigerated and frozen food section. Inside you can get snacks, milk, home accents, automotive, laundry, minor electronic items, etc. The lady at the counter was not very friendly I love their $1 deals.

First of all, I have a suggestion for this store and all stores in general:…read more1) There should be a rating for the store itself and, then 2) a rating for customer service! People in general should highly consider this approach, moving forward. Reason said: The store and or, place of business should be rated on appearance, safety, customer service, reasonable access, pricing and customer needs. If there are comments of need of improving, etc., let's see how we can resolve in a positive good way, considering we all go through something. But, let's be sensitive when we are communicating with customers and also, customers should consider same reflection back. If not, let's work on seeking help to resolve matter, not just complain about it. All that to say...I was immediately approached by a worker who responded to me in a negatively way, before listening to total reason why I was back in the store. But, I responded back in a positive way. Clearly something is going on with the employee that responded negatively. The concern is, that, some time ago, I have experienced a negative approach from the employee. This time I spoke to another person who lives in the neighborhood and found out that it's a ongoing problem with the same employee that I described. But not only that, I was told, it is the manager. I hope for change in a positive way for the employee and that the person receives the help that they need for the good. ---Generally speaking, I like shopping at the General Dollar Stores for certain products because, certain products are worth purchasing at the reason price they are, all though some are not. But, that's just the way it is in life in general. ---Overall, have a Great Day! And I say, you can still enjoy shopping at Dollar General Stores. Just don't allow negative things stop you from enjoy shopping for you needs and bargains when you can! Anonymous Shopper! So 4.5 for the Store in General and 3.0 for the employee's approach, with hope for change for the employee!

On a weekly basis, this is where I do the bulk of my grocery shopping. For the most part, this…read moreplace is fine. In general, I can find anything I need over here, as long as you stay within the realms of western cooking. So, what that entails I can pork loins for a roast. I can find brisket, I can find chuck, I can find...................really thin cuts of ribeye. Like...really really thin. Like, so thin that I could probably cook it medium rare by waving it above my computer case once or twice. Ok, sorry, I digress. If you want to make a ragu sauce, you can find everything that you need here. An alfredo sauce? Yup, that too. Beef stew? Go for it! It also has all the chicken and spices you'd need to make a fried chicken. It does have an international section, but it's..............not impressive. I mean, sure, there's some items, but you can't make a proper anything, tbh. Miso soup? We got half of what you need! Ramen? Uhhh, we got instant. Also have Ramune and Calpis for the weebs. That said, they do have panko if you want to make a katsu. They do have a pretty good produce section. Like, decent selection of fruits that are in season. Plenty of bell peppers, red, orange, yellow, and green. I can usually get jalapenos and habaneros here, although if you're looking for other types of chili peppers, it can be hit or miss. And the habaneros are sometimes still green. No real produce for Asian cooking here (except for shiitake mushrooms), so you won't find anything like burdock root or daikon...maybe bok choy or kabocha every so often. The spice section is pretty nice. Good, wide selection. Most of them are in pretty small containers, though. So if you need anything other than pre-ground cassia (I refuse to call that stuff cinnamon) in a large quantities, you might be out of luck. But...because the spices are in small containers, it's great for sampling. Most of the time when I come here, I like to grab a spice I haven't used before, haven't used in a long time, or haven't learned how to use properly.

Never in my life have I dealt with people this rude over something so simple…read more I was buying a balloon and asked the worker for the string that comes with it. He told me the balloon comes with string, so I asked if I could have it. He said no because apparently he "doesn't have the authority to cut a small piece of ribbon." So I asked for a manager. The manager comes over all aggro like, "WHAT DO YOU WANT?!" I explained I just needed ribbon for the balloon I was purchasing, and he goes, "You mean RIBBON?" like I had just asked for something completely unheard of. Yes... ribbon. That's literally all I was asking for. I left absolutely shocked and didn't make a fuss because I genuinely felt like the situation could escalate even further. The level of hostility over a tiny piece of ribbon was completely unnecessary. Absolutely bizarre customer service experience.
