Stays open late which works for my busy schedule. Kind of lacking with variety of brands and consistency of stock.

The staffs were super rude! Keep yelp "hold the card tight" to the customers because their credit…read morecard terminals weren't work well (parts problem)

Hello to my Yelp Family!!! I have patronized Dollar Tree many times and at many Dollar Tree…read morelocations. I have visited this location numerous times and this time I must say that I will probably not visit this location in the near future. I visited on a Saturday, December 14th. There were a lot of customers in the store and the parking lot was crowded. Of course, because people are buying items for Christmas, so this is not at all unusual. I only needed a few items, such as two Christmas cards for family members, pocket tissues, hefty storage bags and some baby powder. Needless to say, I raced through the store and prepared to stand in line to pay for my items. I was deciding which line was the shortest and I must say, there were no short lines. I decided to use the process of elimination and decided on this line near the door. The sales associate, Rasheeda was speedy and was getting people in and out the door. I salute her for this. The gentleman in front of me needed balloons and I mean a lot of balloons. No one else and thats including me expected Rasheeda to leave the cashier station and proceed to blow up balloons for the customer in front of me. Rasheeda is then blowing up balloons and we, all of us, other customers, are patiently still waiting in line and waiting for Rasheeda to finish. It took forever because the gentleman customer needed at least fifteen balloons. None of us could understand why someone else in the store could have blown up this man's balloons. We, the other customers started talking and commenting, saying it wasn't fair like we had to wait so long. We didn't get in another line, because all other lines, about two total were busy also. It would have been ridiculous to get out of line and wait in another line since then we would have to go at the back of the line. The lady behind me complained and went over to Rasheeda. Rasheeda was understanding and agreed with us that we should not have to wait so long and that someone else in the store should have blown up the balloons. Its Christmas time for one thing and all stores are crowded now!!! Finally Rasheeda came back and apologized to all of us. We told her that it wasn't her fault, but someone else should have blown up the balloons. She agreed with us and she said that she has been working there for three years and that she asked the corporate people to hire someone for the balloon job. That was a waste of time, she said because no one listened to her. I decided to write about my experience here, to alert other potential shoppers about this situation. Good night Yelp Family!! Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!!!!!

Take my review with a grain of salt because I have never been to another hmart before this!…read more I love it here, and they have everything I need for Asian cuisine and then some. My boyfriend is Ecuadorian and they have a pretty loaded Hispanic aisle ironically enough and Tango cookies which are extremely hard to get in the United States, so this is a bonus (no having to wait for abulita to smuggle them back for him, yay!) Prices are average, if anything slightly above average... but I expect this for a specialty store with imported goods. Great location as I'm able to just take the SEPTA to here, works out nice if I wanna make a lil day trip out of it and eat at the food court too. :) Again, I have no other hmarts to compare it to, but it is a tad dirty and run down as far as grocery stores/food markets go. Whole building does smell like fish... but they also *do* have an open fish market thing indoors. Tight aisles. I'm fairly petite and others can squeeze by me, but exactly that: they have to SQUEEZE by me. Nobody with an average height/build could stand comfortably in an aisle with a cart and others get through. Place also isn't huge, but boy, is it packed. As mentioned, it has basically everything you'd need, especially for imported goods. As some other reviews have said, they make you unbag all your stuff and put it back... which is odd, because I'm totally fine with showing my receipt (á la Walmart or any wholesale club like BJs, Sam's Club etc) but it is next level here. High theft area, I presume. Security at front door and I've never had issue bringing my reusable bag in, but I expect to be searched on the way out. Staff is pleasant enough. I don't think in the 10 or so times I've gone to check out they've said hi to me... but I'm also used to shopping at Eastern European markets/have family from that region and they don't do that either so it doesn't bother me lol.

The top floor of this H Mart is actually pretty nice -- there's a cafeteria, a Paris Baguette, and…read moresome small shops for cosmetics and home goods. It's a good spot to grab a bite or browse around casually. However, the actual H Mart experience leaves a lot to be desired. Right at the entrance, you're required to check all your bags -- even reusable shopping bags -- which feels unnecessarily aggressive. The staff at bag check treated me more like a potential thief than a customer. I had a larger wallet (the long kind, not sure what it's called), and even that was questioned. I had to argue just to take it in with me, since clearly you can't steal anything in a wallet. Once inside, the store layout is standard. The produce section near the entrance looked fresh and well-stocked. Seafood was also plentiful and appeared very fresh. The meat section had a solid selection, especially marinated cuts ready for Korean BBQ -- definitely a plus. That said, the snack section was smaller than I expected, especially compared to the ones in Chinatown. I was surprised at the limited variety. The prepared food section (like pre-made kimchi and sides) was practically empty when I went around noon -- not sure if it was bad timing or just poor restocking. Check-out was fast, but the line system was confusing. The worst part? After paying, you have to exit the store, walk back around to the bag check, and then -- get this -- squat on the floor to repack your groceries. No tables or counters provided. It felt disorganized and a bit humiliating. Overall: decent grocery selection, but the experience is soured by unfriendly policies and poor customer service flow. I'd come again for specific items, but I won't be rushing back.

RePurpose Thrift Shoppe

This is one of those times when I debate with myself...should I say something about this place, or…read moreshould I keep it all to myself? Because in the world of thrifting, this place harkens to the old style - jumble of items, packed, run by volunteers for the benefit of a charity. You know, treasure hunts. I love treasure hunts. I'm on my way to downtown Lansdowne one morning and I see a simple wooden A-frame sign: "Re-Purpose Shop". Oooh. Interesting name. Will it be like a Habitat store? Something else? I turn on the side street, then into the parking lot of the church it's housed in. Hm.. No more signs. Well, that door looks logical, so I go in...to an empty hall and kitchen area...but wait, beyond that, some light. Ah! They have two rooms, and have partitioned so one is clothes and the other is 'everything else'. The shelves are packed and there's stuff along the floor too. Roughly categorized, it was so much fun rooting through and finding some cool stuff. The volunteers are very cool, one has a small dog who greeted me with a welcoming sniff, wearing his little doggy Eagles sweater. Aw. Then I was not interesting and he went back to whatever he was doing. This is not a place run by professional organizations under the mask of 'thrift'. It's not neat and super shiny. It's a mad wonderful jumble, and for a treasure hunter it's an absolutely great place to be. They're only open a couple of days a week. I had cash, I don't remember if they take plastic. Benefits the church's programs which include their food pantry.

[618] Driving down…read moreLansdowne Ave I see a sign in front of the Lansdowne First Presbyterian Church that says "Thrift Store" so who am I to pass it up? :) There is plenty of street parking where you can enter thru the front (middle of church) or park in back which you can enter thru the red door (thru hall then store). The small church basement thrift store expanded to another room for good reason. Tons of donations. The second room is stuff with tons of great bargains at a discounted price. The main room is filled with books, kitchen items, house items and a kids corner which is filled with toys and board games. The great prices along with the staff being super friendly is why this rating is a 4. Everytime I stop in I always find a great deal on something. Today it was a $1 under armour sweatshirt and $2 set of 8 pyrex bowls. I always stop in to see what new stuff has arrived and I'm never disappointed. Not many hours but that doesn't stop people. The place was packed. I'll definitely be back and if you're in the area you gotta check out the friendly staff and great prices.

Wednesday - June 5, 2013 - 2PM…read more Before the 8 track, cassettes, CDs, mp3, and streaming, music was heard on vinyl. A "45" was the familiar vehicle for listening to music. 45s are globally available primarily through mail order or the internet. I maintain a small stash of 45s and still cherish them. I've ordered 45s through the internet with pleasing results. Billy Harner released a 45 in 1969 titled "I struck it rich". The song was available through the internet with a variety of prices. Val Shively had the record AND the cheapest price. Although the song was available trough Val Shively web site, I decided to visit the store. In a word, overwhelming. Records lined the walls by the thousands. I wondered how they managed to find anything. The record was presented in good shape. It played just as I remembered on the local AM radio almost 45 years ago. I suggest you call Val's place to verify that your "memory" is available. Browsing is simply impossible and in fact, discouraged. If you visit the store, I believe you'll be amazed.

the best record dealer in the world. reputedly has more than 5 million records in stock,…read morespecializes in 1950s doo-wop and hard to find R&B singles. Val Shively is a living legend among those who know record collecting--if you want a piece of vinyl, he will locate it for you. his clients are worldwide, and they are the best and most discerning vinyl collectors in the world. his store is not a place to browse--you go in and tell him or his assistant what you want, and you wait while they go find it. but they will find it. its better to call first.
