    I had previously reviewed this store as being quite average, and found it hard to imagine why…read moreanyone would shop there. I stand by some of the specifics I mentioned, but now, about a dozen visits later, I understood where I was wrong, and *how* Grocery Outlet is a regular money saving stop for me now. One thing I touched on in the original review was comparison pricing against Walmart. I still believe that in about half the cases, if something Grocery Outlet has is also available at Walmart, it'll be cheaper at Walmart. But, conversely, about half the items will be cheaper at Grocery Outlet. It's also true that some products are closer to their "best by" date at Grocery Outlet, but that almost always results in it being drastically cheaper. I think the methodology to use when visiting Grocery Outlet, is to make it your *first* stop, with the understanding that you will be picking up select items there, and then also stopping somewhere else (yes - the savings are big enough to justify the cost of driving elsewhere). I now know the items that are regularly less expensive at Grocery Outlet, and I also know that there are going to be fantastic deals on spontaneous discoveries that will easily substitute for something that will be more expensive elsewhere. For example, frozen pizza, frozen meals, and snacks, are now things I buy exclusively at Grocery Outlet. The store is well maintained, more so than I first reported, and the employees are friendly and helpful - especially once you get to know them. And lastly, but no less important, you're supporting a family operated business. Now, I am a regular and happy shopper at Grocery Outlet.

    You walk in to nothing but deals!…read more If you love saving money in groceries, soda in Philly and even kids bedding- come here! I always save a ton of money when I shop here and the staff are super friendly and helpful. I found a Fortnite bed in the bag here for my daughters bed for a whopping $25- what a steal! Bag of Tyson Chicken wings for $9.99. Ice cream deals for like $2.

    This dollar store was the worse! maybe its because its close to the holidays, or maybe they are…read moreshort staffed, but the isles were ransacked, there were barely any merchandise and everything that was supposed to be put out on shelves, was in boxes and sealed! The store was dirty and things were everywhere on the floor and in the isles. I came in to get some Christmas stocking stuffers and had to walk out disappointed because there wasn't much to pick from. All the isles were picked over--- even the toiletries isle, everything was bare on the shelves, and it just seemed like a tornado hit the inside of this dollar tree. When it came to the staff, they appeared to be miserable, no smile, no greeting whatsoever to those who came to their lines, and they were the slowest ever! It literally took forever to ring me up and I only had a few items! I wouldn't come back here unless they restock and make some changes.

    I happen to be driving by this Dollar store as my elderly father requested I run in as he needed…read moreshoe laces. However, I didn't realize how difficult it would be to find shoelaces. I asked 2 different store associates where they were in their store. One was dumb founded and ran away without answering me and the 2nd store associate told me I would find it in "textiles". WTF? Textiles?? This is the dollar store...right? I managed to find them on my own and they were kind of buried behind socks. Now time to pay. 3 SLOW lines. One line was occupied from the gal blowing up balloons. 2nd line had a long line with one customer having at least 50 items in her cart. My final and only choice was the 3rd cashier...and yes...this was the same guy that ran away with my shoelace question. After waiting in this SLOW line (Dad waiting in the car), It was finally my turn. I had 4 items. My total $4.18. I had "exact change" including 18 pennies that were taking up too much space in my wallet. Well...this sales associate must not get exact change often. He asked me for another dollar. He was holding my money and looking at it in his hands...clearly it was all there. Twice more he requested another dollar. I asked why?? I still don't get it and this was painful to witness. Then he counted out my 18 pennies...one at a time to make sure they were all there. Omg. Shoot me. Lately I have had horrible service similar to this at other stores. Does anyone even train their staff anymore? I blame this on poor management. Is it too much to train or at least even have employees greet your customers? Maybe even...say Thank you for your purchase? And customers seem to be getting numb to bad service and except it. I realize this is just a dollar store and you get what you pay for...however I want my business to be appreciated where ever I spend my money.

I removed a star because it is a bit too far away and lots of stores have closed due to COVID. But you still have almost every imaginable business. Prices tend to be high but you can still find some deals. Rush hour is brutal so visit during non-peak hours.

    This is the coolest shopping center I have ever visited in my life! It's like a small town, truly…read moreamazing and such a brilliant concept with streets of shops, condo's and restaurants on 120 acres of what used to be farm land. It's enormous and from what I was told they are still developing and only on phase one at this time. I hate shopping and I detest malls and I find shopping here a true delight, so easy to roam around, with beautiful store fronts, street lamps and sidewalks lined with flowers and benches The courtyards are filled with well maintained lawns and plenty of activities, especially for the kiddies. During the warmer months they host a Farmer's Market which is rapidly growing allowing local vendors to sell their fresh produce, baked goods and crafts. Many shops with names you are familiar with, including Victoria's and Borders, plus plenty of unique one of a kind shops line the streets and make it a breeze to browse or run in and out. It's almost a one stop shopping center with a Wegman's Grocery and shops galore that have almost anything you may be looking for. Plenty of restaurants and eateries inside this center make it hard to choose, from pizza to ice cream, Ted Montana's Grill, P.F. Chang's, Chipolte Mexican Grill, The Melting Pot, Panera Bread are all ready to feed you. I've been here for wine tasting's at various shops, I love their Farmer's Market and anxiously await them setting up shop, it's a quaint village that makes me happy to go shopping and I love that they are Eco-friendly.

    So not exactly the best dollar tree in existence. The employees and managers are overworked,…read moreunderstaffed, underpaid. This unfortunately gets taken out on the customers. There are a lot of elderly customers that come in and cannot use the self checkout and sometimes no one is at the register to check people out (there are still registers employees can work too). Often there are so many boxes all over the place therefore obstructing the aisles. They definitely have a lot of stuff, unfortunately it isn't always out of the boxes. And sometimes the shelves are bare. Seasonal stuff tends to go really quickly at this location. Overall much room for improvement especially given the area this is a busy location.

    So this dollar tree just got a major revamp. They continuously change this dollar store around and…read moreit now is turning into a mostly food store which is awesome for people who buy their food here. They do carry some good name brands at a dollar. You also can come here to pick up pretty much any snacks you like. They now have an entire aisle dedicated to single packaged tasty cakes and hostess snacks and granola bars, etc. I love their seasonal section. They always have great decorations! They also have revamped their card selection and are now carrying a hallmark brand and have a lot more options! They seem to really be stepping up their quality! The staff is also always really nice, however they never have enough help. At certain times they'll only ever have one person at the register and it makes the staff work so hard. They do a great job though !
