This place has EVERYTHING you need to set your home up from furniture to rugs, linens, bedding,…read morecurtains, blankets etc. Make sure you visit the basement which is a full-on furniture showroom. I hit every furniture store along Central Avenue and Belmont Avenue and this place was the best for prices and selection and it's also large and clean. Don't fear - most of the styles on the floor are very "Euro-esque" which caters to the clientele in the neighborhood. I witnessed a European lady buying couches in brown leather with chrome legs and tassels and financing it too. But they also have less aggressive traditional American styles. Just ask for Ali or Besam. If they don't have it in stock they will get from their warehouse in Elgin. I was looking for a very specific piece. My room is small and there is no room for bedside tables so I wanted a headboard/hutch with cubby holes to hold a water glass or clock radio. I use a futon with a wooden frame as a bed and I wanted a hutch to match. Ali and Besam found EXACTLY what I had in mind and it was only $80 so I was very happy. My hutch is sturdy, solid wood and made in Malaysia. It is nice to have a small locally-owned business in the neighborhood with excellent prices!

It's a new, unpretentious-looking outlet store, across road from the A&G Market, near the southwest…read morecorner of Central and Belmont. This part of Belmont Central is slowly gentrifying. In order to revive this neighborhood and to boost the business activities, free community parking lot is available on Central. If you feel like paying unnecessary money, I guess you can also utilize paid street parking along Belmont. Hubby and I took advantage of the nice weather to walk down there and check it out what this store was about. Think about "Cook Brothers Warehouse," "Forman Mills," and those major discount retailers (TJ Maxx, Ross Dress for Less, and Marshall's). "Save & Tell Outlet" is like a combination of these three, with the entire downstairs basement featuring all furniture. Since we were on the lookout for a bed frame, we took a peek and found some possibilities. S&T is having a grand-opening special during the month of March on most of their furniture, saving up to $400 on some of the pieces. S&T carries overstock or liquidation from Macy's. The old Macy's tags were still present on their clothing items. I saw some young girls picking out bras and panties. I wasn't that curious, yet hubby was and went straight to the section. He then reported back to me that four (4) bras were on sale for $17. You do the math, and I would say that deal was pretty good! I also saw name-brand perfumes, kitchenware, curtains, shoes, and blankets. Overall, it's a decent store for the convenience of neighborhood residents.

I have to say I have been to Cook Brothers Warehouse years ago and I wasn't truly impressed, but…read morethe other day when I took a good look around I was happy I gave Cook Brothers another chance. I got a great garlic press(.49) and a whisk(.49) and I was so surprised at how sturdy they both were. I also got a new cart (16.90) on sale it is normally(18.90) cheaper than Amazon so I was happy to find a new cart that was inexpensive but seems to be sturdy. They did have another cart there for (69.90) and I hope that one goes on sale because it was the Cadillac of carts and it was definitely sturdy. This is something I can't wait to get soon especially if I can find it on sale. They had a lot of name brand items for a very good price. The staff was great and the variety of items made me a fan. I'm surprised they don't have more locations, but I will be back for sure. As Always Folks... Enjoy!!!

I am a strong believer in customer service and I didn't receive that on my Friday trip to this location. After mentioning that I was frustrated with how things were going ANOTHER staff member was taking my pulled items now from the register back to the shelf. I definitely think there are improvements to be made when it comes to holds and customer relations.

Amidst downsizing and such I figured why not finish/refurbish em? So I googled and made the drive! So great to find a model/hobby store that's BLACK OWNED! WHAT?! Lots of great stuff! funky layout with the buzzer but now that I get it... I get it! Already itching to go back. What a cool place. AND THEY GOT TAMIYA STUFF, FAM! I emptied my eBay cart. As a non-big-box dude, its great to stumble on a small-batch well-appointed spot with some history. 25 year?! Cool. Highly recommend. A biz partner lives around the corner so its Nice to have a reason to be late. the front of the shop is all tools. the back is steeped in every kind of Model and figurine a hobbyist would like. Worth a trip. Get your kid an old WWII bomber kit or something! Just kidding. Visit for yourself. P to the S: I don't know what that james dude is talkin bout but he sounds like he calls police.
