    There are things I loved about this gigantic store and things that left me fuming as I walked out…read morethe door. My first rating was 3 stars; but given that I spent over $100 (not including the 25% off I got because it was a Thursday) and look forward to going back, I think 4 is fairer. New digs, so I need new furnishings. Decided to thrift shop for home decor and essentials before paying for new. Scored some really great deals! Like an ironing board for $5.99. Billy Squire greatest hits CD for $1.99. (No judgement!) Lots of baskets and containers for storage, new lampshades, a looks-like-new baking pan, and a bunch of other similar items. There are rows and rows and rows of household items, grouped by a top category (such as kitchen appliances), then subcategory (such as coffee makers. Bedding, then King sheets. Furniture, lamps. Etc. You get the idea.) Then there are categories for Wood Decor, Plastic, Metal, etc. Rows and rows of clothing are similarity grouped: Jeans, grouped by size. Shoes, books, purses, toys... everything. This makes it so much easier to find what you are looking for than at places that group by color. (What "color" does butter dish fall under??) Loved all that. Didn't like: 1) No fitting rooms. I wasn't shopping for clothing, but if I had been... I don't buy any garments without first trying them on. Covid, perhaps, but still... 2) To use the bathroom, you have to first find an associate to unlock the door. When a person was trying on a cart full of clothes in the bathroom, the associate said he is "not getting involved with that." Um... can you at least call for a manager, then? 3) Finally, there were 4-6 Self-checkout stalls and no wait. Literally, no one was checking themselves out. Great! I love checking myself out so I can take my time, ensure the correct price, and review whether I really want to buy something. So I begin. Then I hear a bellow (really, a bellow) from the lone cashier telling me, "You can't check out there! I need to check you out." I look around--is she talking to me? She was. I gather all the stuff I'd already rung up and get in the long line for the only cashier. At some point, a new cashier took over so I asked the original cashier--very politely--why I couldn't self-check. Because I had too much stuff, she said. Ok, I get that... but maybe there should be a sign? Maybe you could be less militant about it? As I'm in line, I see a guy try to ring up a guitar at the self checkout. Now there is an employee there who tells him he can't, he has to get in line for the cashier, too. He looks as annoyed as I. Finally it's my turn. I have a cart full. I feel bad because there's now a line of people behind me. No time to ruminate about my purchases or check prices. The new cashier is no friendlier than the original. She also seems annoyed. Maybe because she sees a line of people for her, while the self checkout lanes are empty. I don't get it. Seriously, I'm baffled. But I did get a nice head start on home decorating, so there's that.

    Always great finds! The vast store offers opportunity for the savvy shoppers.Always visit when…read moreI am in town.
