Theyre remodeling. It was a mess but the manager still put on some speed walking and found exactly what I wanted. Its not a common item but she not only knew they had it she knew where it w. But, I bought a little eyeglasses cleaning kit. Microfiber supposedly & a purse size atomizer of really special lens cleaner liquid. Ten days later Im getting ready to complain to my eye dr. My lens are always grimy. WHY?? Because FD ripped me off. The fiber was just a Kleenex and the fluid was plain old water. I found my own cloth and filled the bottle with alcohol. Plain old alcohol. So FD gets a 5 but ripping me off for $3.99 drops them to 2. Sorry but even great service doesnt mean they get to RIP off customers. Not coming back. J. Spite of good location for me! Thats theft.

I was about 20 mins into shopping already when a cashier confronted me and told me I had to leave my backpack at the register. Im pretty sure thats not a corporate policy (and if so, there was no sign anywhere saying that). The cashier took off and I guess she thought I was following her because she starts YELLING for me like Im stealing (Maam! MAAM! MAAAAAAM!!! I NEED YOUR BACKPACK!!!). It was embarrassing to say the least.To be clear, they need a sign so Ill know not to shop there. Im never going to surrender my personal belongings in order to shop. Plus, if my bag or contents go missing, whos liable? The cashier? The store? This is a terrible way to handle shrinkage. The thieves just wont wear backpacks.

Arrived at around 3:30 pm this past Sunday afternoon, my 2 toddlers in tow. Greeted by a heaping trashbag laying nearly in front of the door. Just to the left of that ripped, stinky display was an overflowing trashcan. Lots of bugs.Rushed kids past to get a shopping cart. No carts. Not one. Not even in the parking lot. Great. 2 toddlers, no cart. Maybe inside? Nope. None there either. As we were shopping, I noticed several (at least 4) carts on the sales floor full of store stock.I quickly grab my items and head to check out. The cashier isnt greeting anyone. Shes on a personal call. Just chatting away as she ignores customers and doesnt make eye contact. I actually had to grab my own receipt out of the printer myself as she began ringing the next customer. She was very rude. Purposely so, it seemed.While it was particularly bad Sunday, the store itself is generally nice. The staff? Usually rude and dismissive overall though. A bunch of young girls and a manager who seems to want to be their buddy. Lots of loud laughing (even at customers sometimes). Weird vibe for a family store.

Veterans never go into this place.I took my registered service dog with me, spent almost $40 And the cashier has the nerve to to say your dog stinks and needs a bath I have been to this store over the past years, between the lie about the restroom being out of order or the key got locked inside, . I WANT BE BACK !!!!¡!!!

I ask if I could use their restroom after spending over 40.00 and was told it was out of order and I was fixing to walk out and one of the employees told another Im going to go use the restroom OK it has been two weeks I went back and again was told out of order I ask the employee what are you guys doin doing for a restroom and she told me we use next door. She claims they have been without one for 2 months. That is against the law. Denise who is an employee has a real bad nasty negative attude toward customers and dont need to be working there. Im fixing to call code enforcement on them

Most of the shopping carts at this store are being used by staff stocking merchandise. Its usually a run in and out store. Due to the lack of available shopping carts I only get what my arms can grab. Outside where the shopping carts go theres always big pile of trash bags.
