I can't believe it took me years to enter this store. For some reason, I just thought it was a junk shop. However, I was mistaken. If you are a fierce bargain hunter, it is definitely worth a routine visit. I purchase a few staple items here at prices that are cheaper than some of the larger retail outlets. If you see something you like, it's important to grab it because, as the slogan goes, "When it's gone, it's gone." You can find everything from snacks to toiletries to pet supplies and household appliances. Always check the prices online. Some of the smaller ticket items are offered at prices comparable to the dollar store. Some of them are priced higher than items at the dollar store. It pays to check. Yet, I scored an excellent quality Nutri Bullet at a significantly reduced price.
I've gotten excellent deals on garden supplies and automobile things. If I need anything for the house, I will usually stop here before going to Lowes or Home Depot. Ollies doesn't have everything you need. But it's surprising how much they have and you can truly save money by checking here first. Last year I needed some office supplies and crafts. Ollies prices were half of those charged by competitors'. Plus, you can become an Ollies member and receive special discounts. Sometimes the lines seem in ordinately long.Yet overall, the customer service has been satisfactory. The representatives are helpful and I've been professional when I've needed to return items. Sometimes the website seems cumbersome. It sometimes takes a little while to dig through the website to find your coupon. Plus, some offers are extended for brief periods of time. The ambience is a bit dismal, with a warehouse vibe. It's sort of reminds me of the old Sunny's Surplus atmosphere. But heck, I'm not going there for aesthetics. If you like bargains, give it a try. You might be delightfully surprised. read more
