Awesome store if you have aquarium needs! Been there countless times since they have better deals. Plus its like a treasure hunt there. I was helped by the owner couple weeks back and he recommended a uv filter that has fix my issue. The are also 2 gals that always help me out when I need a particular item.Helpful owner, knowledgeable staff, and a variety of hidden treasures, I definitely recommend stopping by here!

I have been shopping at this store for a couple of years buying fish and all the necessary aquarium related products. Recently, I upgraded my Oscar fish to a bigger tank and my experience was stressful and extremely unprofessional. The owner Dean quoted me a price for a different product than what he sold me. I was also overcharged on the tax (almost 11%). It makes me wonder about all my past purchases that I assumed to be a good deal by paying cash. I confronted him about my concerns and he was rude... there were too many mistakes for the errors to be unintentional. Pay close attention to your $ spent in this store. The only positive about Bargain Land is Brandy.EDIT after response from owner-Thank goodness there are other options available because this is inexcusable. When there is an overcharge after an agreed upon price... that is bad business period. I can not believe what I just read in the owners response! Total untruthful statement about providing help to unload and setup at my house WOW just a shame! I am thrilled to suggest other stores in this review like Aquarium Outfitters in NC and Skoolz of Fish in VA. I had great experiences at both places with friendly, professional service. I always try to do business in my hometown, but this experience and store stinks!

Man let me tell you!! I wanted to start a fish tank… he helped me start it and get set up… he answered all my questions and provided the best customer service yet… I brought 7 fish and a tank .. beautiful set up… I go by every other week to get things for my tank .. he actually cares that you get the best service ever… I’d recommend these good folks to anyone seeking a fish and other pets.. Thank for the awesome service.. we are very happy with our set up!!

This place is amazing!!!! Some awesome vintage finds in this store!!!! I love it!!! I found this little cauldron and I love it so much!!!

Good employee, great owner work great with me. Gave me lots of help. I can say I will always buy from them when I come into the area. Thanks for being there for us anglers. (^^^)

What a cool place! We went on memorial day for bait to go fishing. Theres so much awesome stuff in there. Were definitely going back. Our daughter really got a kick out of Nibet!

What a wonderful experience! Top notch customer service which is difficult to find these days. Dean and his staff genuinely care about their customers and provide solutions to your needs. They stock everything you need and everything you forgot you needed. One stop shop! Niblet adds an extra little special touch to round out the experience. Will be stopping in every time I come through town.

I love going to bargain land bait and tackle Dean is a very nice man and he will help you in any way he can and he has very good prices thank you for being here for us this is g power fishing

Nice selection. Owner was very knowledgeable and friendly. For a bait and tackle store close to 3 lakes and a river they had great prices.

What amazing customer service! From solving our water issues to covering our every pets needs! Thanks so much again Dean! Highly recommended to all!!

What an incredible store! They literally have everything that you could want to fish in the local area. They also sell pets such as exotic birds and fish. If you need pet supplies such as frozen mice for your.pet snake, this is the place to go!

This is the gem of this little town, way more than just a bait shop!Super friendly and worth a few minutes to stop in and see everything they have.Thank you for making my 4 year Olds day!

Went the first time with my kids super packed not sure what all it even is BUT the porcupine they have makes up for anything negative you could ever say about the store we also bought some fish and little tank crabs all still alive! So we loved our experience ☺️

Great folks. See niblet the porcupine for the full experience.You can’t beat this place. Great selection and even better people

Great down to earth people, unique atmosphere, very friendly and knowledgeable. I %100 recommend

Niblet made our annual rock fishing trip much more exciting. Dean and his staff got us all rigged up to chase trophy fish. We used his jumbo minnows and we caught a tagged fish!!! We will be back again.

Very nice people and have a lot of information to give you on fish and have purchased all my fishing needs here!!

Ive been in here 20 times the past few weeks between getting angel fish and supplies. Ive had a hard time keeping them alive besides 1. I found the issue with the first 2,,as my giant danio is being aggressive and gave them lacerations on their tail fins and it caused an infection which lead to death. I bought 2 more and 1 of those died and me and the employee dont know whats going on. My water parameters are near perfect, I use RO/DI water with equilibrium mineral restoration. Ive come in to get different materials needed to help with my aquarium maintenance and theyve had everything Ive needed. The lady has answered all of my questions, tested my water to help find out the problem which came to be none with water parameters. ph is 6.8, gh is 5 dkh°. Temperature is 79 degrees. Everything else is 0. Aside from all of that, bargain land is a great store for ALL of your pets needs. From fish to birds to reptiles and Im sure everything between. The people here are very respectful, they help you with what you need help with, they answer your questions without hesitation. I highly recommend visiting bargain land for any questions or supplies concerning your pets. Well deserved 5 star rating.

Had exactly what I needed and very reasonably priced and I even ordered something else through them. The owner was super nice as well as his staff.

The staff was friendly knowledgeable and funny. Good prices on tackle, fishing poles and bait.

Awesome store with great, helpful staff!!! Thanks for you help Dean!!! Looking forward to seeing y’all again soon!!!

They have a porcupine awesome!

Love it there.

I dont recall visiting a bargain landI didnt give you a bad review To yhe owner of Bargain land, I was only stating that I dont recall visiting no bargain land and as a matter-of-fact I know I didnt! I may have been near your establishment but I didnt actually come into your store, and watch how you TALK to me Sir/Maam 😑

Had to use cash only today cause the machine was down, but its a really cool place with alot of unique items. Excellent for finding fishing stuff too! The store was a little messy, but had a really old fashioned and genuine feel. I will definitely go back if I need more fishing stuff.

It was a guy there helping me choose what kind of fish was best for my tank setup and school me on every question I had, and I had every bit of about 15-20questions on how to care and maintain my aquarium. It’s my first time owning one. He was a great help and never got agitated with the million questions and repeating them, it took me maybe 30-45 minutes to choose 3 fish and he was there every step of the way. I really recommend these people.

Never know what youll find! My one stop tackle shop!

Stinks like hell but great deals

Most everything you need.

My son & his mother finally got another Guinea Pig💞

If you need anything related to fishing they got you,even have a porcupine named Niblet, a gotta see!!

A locally owned pet shop that has more than just pets. Dean Joyner is a good person and treats you the right way. Come by and visit Bargain Land. You will be pleasantly surprised and oh yea the staff is great too!!

Absolutely wonderful!! We called w questions cause we had a very sick chameleon he answered phone had what we needed waiting on us when we walked in the door cause we had a drive to get there ! Now we have a healthy happy chameleon again! Thanks 😊!

My daughter loves to come in there to see the animals and fish and talk to the birds. But want to know how much is for a hamster and the cage!!🙂❤️

We have been getting our fishing worms here for years and hooks and weights. Dean is great. We were going all the way to Petersburg for number 10 hooks because nobody in town sold them and told Dean, few days later he had them in stock. All his employees are friendly as well.

Great place! Niblet is awesome! Get my pet supplies here! Fantastic staff!❤️

Sorry, have been by there but have never actually stopped, I hear its a pretty cool place though

Dean went out of his way to ensure we got our boat trailer safely to a repair location. We broke down in front of his store. We were very blessed to have our problem happen where it did. Wonderful customer service and a very helpful man to do what he did for us. I will always be a customer for his wonderful store.

Loved my experience at Bargain Land! They sold me my wonderful Quaker parrot and several parakeets. Will be back.

A good variety of things youll love

Purchased bait and supplies there this week to fish for striper in the Roanoke River. These guys were great, had plenty of everything I needed and then some.

I enjoy going in and seeing the animals. They have a huge porcupineYou got your 5 stars because you cared enough to respond to my review

Good folks, and a nice alternative to corporate pet stores and such. I’d much rather give my money to a small business when I can, and these folks have been good to me the few times I’ve been by.

This place is so cool!!! You will find everything you need and the owner Dean is very friendly and helpful! He helped my little boy get a rod he liked! Very cool pets and you have to meet Niblet the porcupine! Awesome place Dean and thank you for being so kind! Emilee and Kaleb

Very nice helpful staff but it needs a good cleaning.It seemed understaffed but could be because of covid

Great place and have exactly what you want or need.

I love this place! You can find some nice treasures here and customer service was great! They had fish supplies and reptile supplies that were unique and I needed. I bought a nice log for my bearded dragons tank.

Very friendly to costumers. They will help you with anything you need and meet you at the door with a smile. Very nice assortment of animals and nature tools and soplise. I get everything I need for my turtle there. You have to go and check them out.

This place is just beyond COOL. We got to meet Niblet the porcupine! 😍🦔 Wow! Not everyday you get to scratch under the chin and pet a porcupine! Found some cool one-of-a-kind souvenirs and restocked on fishing gear! The owner Dean is so friendly and helpful too! ❤️🤠

Best store in Roanoke Rapids. Wal-Mart sucks! Go to Bargain Land! More fun, youll actually get service and they sell cool stuff!Including any type of fishing supply, minnows of any size, night crawlers, red worms and crickets. They even have a Porcupine walking around in a side room you can touch thats nice! Very cool place! Never disappointed.Brennan Fowler

Dean at bargain land is very helpful to find anything that you need for your pets. He also has a pet porcupine that he keeps in the business for people to see! I highly recommend checking out bargain land.

Great customer service told me alot about fish especially gold fish I went on a Monday they was closed but the gentleman came to feed the fish and let us in and was real polite

They had a wide variety of animals it was unique and awesome they had a giant porcupine .

My family loves this store! It has all of our aquarium needs and so much more! It has something for everyone.

Awesome service! Nice people and everything you need for fishing!

Always love to stop by. Never know what they are going to have. They have a little bit of everything ;-)

They have just about anything you want in this store, us one or two things you forgot about.

Huge selection! And the guy who runs it is really friendly and knowledgeable. Plenty of bait and tackle and some nick nacks too. And a great pet selection! Also the owner has a pet Porcupine! How crazy is that??

Didnt have it all, but they had most of what I was looking for

Very interesting place...everything you can think of for fishing in one building! Forgot my bag of ice but i shall return

Great place to find anything for your pets or for fishing and if the owner Dean doesnt have it he will go out of his way to try and get it for you. They also have a wide selection of random items you just dont find anywhere else. I used to work at a major retail pet store and the prices here are on average 10 to 20 percent cheaper including the saltwater fish selection which is larger than the little bit of stuff places like pet smart carry. If you havent been by stop by and fall in love with a fish or animal its a neat place to shop or visit.

Great for everything

I think they would do better as just a bait tackle shop.Also to note they accept credit cards but your purchase has to be over $5.00 and thats kinda unfair especially if you just need worms or crickets you better bring cash!!! Other than that great little bait shop

The store is totally awesome. Everything from fishing supplies to pets and everything in between

Best tackle around..good people..good prices.

Good price onnlive fish

I love to see all the fishes

Very nice people! Had everything I needed for my last minute fishing trip! I Will be returning!

Its wild like in there....little bit of everything!!Cool petting a porcupine, but then I got sad if he has to live out her days in that small stinky damp bird and lizard room. I think Niblet deserves a yard and some fresh dirt and alot of grass to wander through and nap in....outdoors for Niblet and fresh air!! Please?

Awesome little shop! Great for the fisherman in your life or the thrift shop lover. Great service, hometown shop.

Very knowledgeable an has about anything you want from fishing to animals an fish needs more hunting stuff tho

Nice folks. Had everything we needed.

I love this place. Nice items and friendly folks

The lady was extremely rude, over priced on everything. Seems like they dont want to sale anything. All the animals are kept terrible I felt so bad. The front room smells horrible and they have a porcupine locked in the front room with no fresh air its sad, in the same room I saw dead mice and rats the smell is overwhelming and will take your breath. Everything they have for sale is junk and not worth what they ask its stacked to the roof. Also in the front room most of the critters arent forsale they just collect them I guess.

The owner Dean Joyner helped me out with a particular lure I was looking for. Appreciate it very much ! Thank you sir.

Stopped in here for the first time and I was completely impressed! The friendly staff, lots of fishing supply and a few non fishing items. Prices are great! Deffently will be goin back for all my fishing needs!

I have been buying bait from Dean for about 6 years now when I come to the Roanoke River to striper fish in the spring. Not only does Dean have the best prices around, hes also got the best bait. He gives me water for my bait tank and a bag of ice. Its these little things that sets Dean and Bargain Land apart. He will go out of his way to help you out. Not to mention his shop is just downright cool. A lot of neat stuff in there. I tell everyone I know who goes to the Roanoke to striper fish to give their business to Dean. He has certainly earned it.

Lots of fishing gear and live bait. Really neat store with all kinds of stuff for sale.

We always look forward stopping in when we come to the area, we are from Va. Prices are very reasonable, owner is very nice and great selection of reptiles and fishing items.

Love this place always something new to see. All of your fishing needs . And aquarium needs. Update . I was in the store at the same time as Ms WIX and everything she complained about is not close to true . No one was rude to her there were NO dead mice or rats .Nibblet is happy as ever . there are not over priced .And 90% of the animals are for sell . The pet room had just been cleaned so it didnt smell . Sounds like a witch hunt to me .

I like that place it nice and the people are friendly

Friendly service, great bargains on slightly worn clothes.

Great experience! Could not be happier! Will definitely be a return customer!

Always enjoy checking stuff out

Great place to shop and the staff are awesome!!

Nice customer service great bargain for your money.

Every year when I fish in Weldon this the place for bait and gear. The people here are great.

I found the store unique

Super nice owner he happend to be at store even though he was closed and still sold us bait.

This is my go-to place for fishing supplies. Best selection around.

Best tackle shop I know

Great place for all your fishing needs.

Great people, cool animals, everything you need for fishing
