Such a great neighborhood store!! Like a treasure hunt.. great deals.Shout out to the friendly staff and managers, Linda, Jacob, Johny and Paul, just to mention a few: they are so polite and friendly. My shopping trips there, are always a pleasure!!!!
I get all my blinds from there and recently got a kayak. You need to know what you want and know what a good price is but there are definitely some good bargains
We shopped today at the New City location for a outdoor dining table. The only one available was one missing the hardware. Fortunately we only needed the glass top as we already have the same table but the glass broke. Yvesnord who was in charge was extremely accommodating. She called her manager who offered us an even deeper discount than advertised & then she & another staff member put the large item in the car for me. Yvesnord showed excellent sales skills. Todays experience was outstanding!! Thank you again.
Two individuals were extraordinary. Separately, Kwame Fields and Liz Almonte went out of their way to help me find what I needed. Kwame is energetic and efficient and an outstanding person who really knows your inventory. Liz showed her interest in helping and pointed out exactly what my husband and I were asking for.They both deserve a resounding round of applause: it was pleasure shopping at Ocean State in New City.
Great, I havent been there in a long time.
New management in new city stire is the most customer satisfaction focused. People actually ask if they can help!
Excellent customer service. I called before I went there and the gentleman answered all of my questions and checked to make sure what I wanted was in stock. He was very kind, polite and professional. When I arrived at the store it was clean, neat and orderly. I approached a young lady working there and asked if anyone could assist me with my purchase as it was quite heavy. She immediately asked the nice gentleman employee and he happily assisted me to the register and to my car. The young lady cashier was extremely friendly, kind and polite. EVERY employee I encountered tonight was extremely pleasant, polite, helpful, friendly and professional. I hope Ocean State Job Lot recognizes the wonderful and valuable staff they have. I was beyond impressed. I drove 50 minutes to this store because they had what I wanted in stock. It was beyond worth it to have such a pleasant experience. I was there at 6:20 tonight. Unfortunately I did not get any of their names but I appreciate that they went above and beyond. They have excellent customer service skills.
Love this place they got all your needs and very nice people
Its cheap and sometimes some really great deals. We like it. The insider deals always has a great little deal or sometimes unexpected cashback. We always get excited about the free food section. There is always one item we try and love... recently snack packs of green olives and we all scream its free when we eat it so dont write that section off.
Before going into any store I like to go online and check to ensure it says in stock. Due to Covid I had called both New city and Nanuet location to see if the item was in stock. Once I had arrived at the new city location they had 2 bins, that were damaged, the cashier stated they may have it on truck on Sunday. Since then I had checked the website and came into the store 2 more times but yet they still did not have it in stock. My last trip to the store one of the cashiers was unable to help me so she had a another person attempt to help but that person stated that due to a long line she is unable to check in the back for the item. She did not offer to have the item in stock or let me know anything. The lady did inform me the website may have not updated, I was even willing to pick up the damaged bins but they still didn’t have it. This store may have items for less, but they need to learn to better serve their customers. There was no offer to get it in from another store and there was no promise they can custom order an item for the qty I requested and have it on truck day.Instead I decided to go the amazon route. I paid one dollar more for the item but atleast it came to my doorstep.
Love the bargains and the name brands they get runs of. Always stop in to stock up and find unique surprises when I am in Rockland.
This store is really good for cheap prices. The workers are really nice always offering help. The store just needs a little more work done, since some aisles get messy. The only bad experience I had was seeing the manager I believe being really rude. They were verbally rude to people. That is what usually ruins my experience when I go in. But I can’t not come in because I love buying things there!
I enjoy this store because it carries organic items. Everyone should go in and check this place out.
Nice shopping experience. Found lots of stuff, in and out quickly.
Cool store with a lot of random and interesting products.
I just visited this store, and have been here couple of times. The issue today is that I bought a couple of items that were listed at a certain price and at the check out I noticed that none of the items were at the price advertised and paid taxes. So taxes werent the reason of the extra charge. A bungee cord listed at $1.00 came out to be at $1.42. Flooring mats listed at $9.99 were actually $10.19, etc. Little by little it added up to a few bucks. If they want to make this changes in prices they should make sure to do it in their price tags before opening.
Wonderful place 2 shopGood prices and a lot of variety. They also donate and contribute a lot to our community especially military.
At first this place looked like where dreams go to die but then you start seeing thing you werent even looking for. Awesome place to offer your money to
This store is full of great buys on so many items. I especially love the pet section and all of the different varieties of cookies. You can find lots of good buys here.
Great place i always find things I need and dont need over there and the prices are great until you get to the register then u realize how much you didnt mean to spend however highly recommended
Cant go wrong here, getting the random things for Christmas decorations and yard clean up
Store was clean and well stocked. Went in for 1 or 2 items and found myself roaming the isles. Peaple were friendly and professional. Everyone was wearing a mask. Im planning to return.
Great store, great team.
Not much in the store and prices seemed to be a lot hire than my last time I visited the store. But my Cashier was very polite.
I love this place. Right next door is Stop and Shop and they both have many of the same products but Ocean State charges far less. They always have a surprising mix of products and you can find some really incredible bargains.I dont want to take that away from them but I feel compelled to write about my experience today because it rankled so much. Mothers Day - posted around the store were notices they were going to charge you a 2 percent premium on all your purchases for the day. All money would collected for the employees who have been working during the virus shutdown. On top of that they gave each of their employees a $2 per hour raise. Oh. And if you didnt want to participate, just tell the cashier before she rang you up. I did that. And the surcharge was added anyway. The cashier did not know how to reverse the charge. She had to ask a couple of other women working there. The end result was she just handed my the amount. I said to her I told you I didnt want to be charged, right? She replied, yes. But it happened anyway. I am going to guess they thought everyone would feel awkward and guilt tripped into giving up the surcharge. I wasnt. SO. You have people who are actually working. They just got a raise. And you are going to charge other people who might be out of work, on a fixed income, are shopping in your store to SAVE money EXTRA for people who are working, getting a paycheck and just got a raise? Seriously?? Who thought of this public relations misstep? And not only that you pretend its voluntary but your registers are set to charge it regardless?Very bad move. I might be in the minority but I dont want to be taken advantage of. And I deeply resent anyone who thinks I am too cowardly to speak out. Shabby move, Ocean State. I am giving you three stars for this latest gambit. Otherwise you wouldve received five.
The staff here always go out of their way to be friendly and helpful
Gardening supplies cheaper then Home Depot & Lowes.
I love this store. A lot of inexpensive hidden gems
Can find household items that are reseasonably priced also some casual clothing, housewares love it.
Great store. Fantastic prices.
Great place to shop.
One of the best places to shop for clothes or snacks or food in my opinion. Prices here are hard to beat. Ive gotten great winter coats n gloves here. They have a nice selection of tasty things to eat as well.
I find the most interesting items here. Always a good place to check out.
First time visiting this store and although they have alot of items they dont really have a wide variety of items. Prices on most things are around average maybe a little less. Overall a very interesting store but I feel like they should have a more diverse selection of things. About 1/4 of the store had to do with pool items.
Great prices
It have everything i need in one store. keep up the good job.
Good store although they ran out of the item i was looking for.
LOTS of stuff!! Nice layout.
Great place! Great prices! Front end supervisor was great and very helpful!
Good products
Always an adventure.
Curtains s at great prices
Lots of stuff. Store is clean, well lit and well stocked. There were only three cashiers so there were at least five people on each line waiting.
I love this place. I find a lot of cool things there. I usually dont spend more than $40 each time I go there.
Able to find some good deal if you have time to shop around.
Great bargains and tons of items.
Always find a bargain. Pleasant staff.
Great values in this place!
Found some good Quality cheap items
Indubitably one of the best discount stores in New York-- no, in America. The best employees for any discount store Ive ever seen, especially Andrea, Myrna, Antoinette, and Clauden. Give Negash a promotion and a raise immediately. Would rate 11/10, every time.
This store has EVERYTHING! Cashiers are always friendly.
The prices are good but the store is a mess. For a newer location in a brand new building it already feels old and not well taken care of.If you dont mind searching for what youre looking for or dealing with mess then the prices are worth it.
Very good place to shop you can get varieties of food and household items and there prices are very much affordable
Very good has things you dont find in other stores.
Good place to buy miscellaneous things. Some deals are better than others..
They have an interesting selection of products for a discount store. There are definitely some gems here. A lot of the stuff just seems very disorganized and the store can be a bit overwhelming to sift through.
Tremendous selection of all types of merchandise. Very interesting food selections at awesome prices I just discovered this place its terrific
Wait Jersey is the Garden state...Im confused.
So many options for food, spices, clothing, and home goods
This place has alot of very good things make up/rugs/food/outdoor patio/recreational sports/arts and crafts/and home goods.
Very good store nice people to deal with
Great store looking forward to their new location opening always has what I need and always has new items very friendly and helpful staff
This is just another discount store. It was cluttered, disorganized, and had a dirty feel to it. The prices were pretty good, but the selection wasnt impressive. I came in here for school supplies, and I wont be coming back here again.
Amazing values you will go nuts, and you can buy them too!
Great stuff you can go in looking for 1 thing then you check out and you owe 150bucks but its well well worth it.
Great store! Has a little of everything at terrific prices. Worth the trip.
Great buys goid prices good selections
Great bargains, amazing foods with good expiration dates, clean, well organized, very friendly and helpful staff
Great place super awesome prices beats Walmart
Everything and anything under one roof. Great prices and you will find things you never thought you needed
A reasonably priced close out store. Selection and sizes are sometimes limited.
Better product at a very low cost
Prices and products are great. Customer service is even better.
Above the competitionBob Mills, piles of high quality can goods,everything for your home, and all the blue tarps youll ever need.
It was horrible. Lots of products with wrong price tags, tons of defective products, employees seem as spaced-out, incompetent, incoherent & out of focus as Donald Trump.
This is a store that sells random stuff, all mixed but good stuff, and good deals, they sell clothing and picturs, pet toys and pools, lamps and rugs, arts and crafts, and electric toys, so basically they have a bit of it all so if your looking for any of these STUFF they got it, the costumer serves is good and helpful, the store is not so big like Walmart,Costco etc, but its a nice size, there is a big parking lot that is usually empty so parking is not a issue.
Love this store.....all the stuff you didnt know you needed andso much time
Good stuff although some money of it is not best quality
Great place to shop. Always friendly and great deals
This store has almost absolutely anything youll ever need. More people need to start realizing what a great go to this place is
Good Selection of anything you like
Great bargains if you know your prices
Has everything I need at great prices
Good variety of things. Fair prices
Found everything I needed.
They would get zero Stars if it wasnt for decent price, the service is horrific Ive never had worst service in a retail place every single staff member there needs to go for remedial customer service training or they wont stay in business for too long no matter how cheap the prices are.
Good discounts here but lets be honest...this is not a high end store.
Good prices. Good service.
This store has gone down hill the last 6 months or so Not very organized Looks like a glorified dollar store Either its mis-managed or employees are just not with it Big Lots has more to offer and is more organized
Great store, great prices, good bargain.
Great value on tons of item. Was surprised by the size of their Hardware / maintenance section.
Great store to buy quality goods cheap.
Friendly staff, low prices.
This place is AMAZING! great store, great location, PHENOMENAL PRICES!
Good place to get last minute things
Lots of bargain...love this store
