People are nice here and they have the usual Big Lots inventory. On the downside, I feel like Big Lots isnt the bargain it used to be, or that many people think it is, especially in terms of housewares like clocks, furniture, kitchen stuff. Good place for spices and assorted foods though.

Its past 10 am, and its clearly posted outside that its supposed to be open at 9. Theres an employee outside waiting for someone to unlock the door, and when I asked him about it he says, yeah this happens sometimes.Im sorry???? I guess management doesnt care at all. This is unfair to the employees. Maybe be open when youre supposed to??

They have rather large store. A little of everything. You never know what you will find. But you will not be disappointed. Rather interesting collection of unrelated goods. But it works, so what more can I say. Its worth a trip....

This is the only location that carries the dog treats my four legged fur baby loves. Country Kitchen Duck Breast Jerky. A must have at my house. And they go fast so I grab multiple bags when in stock.I get my wild bird and hummingbird supplies here also. As well as seasonal decor.A lot of great deals from bath essentials to snack food.

Super cute to have eyes rolled at you for saying hi. Even better when the cashier removes their mask to rub their nose and then continue with ringing you up without sanitizer.

Review №21

Not to busy or crowded. Only 1 checkstand open, but they called a 2nd cashier. So wait wants too long. Found everything I needed and then some. Only thing is they dont have any furniture here. You have to go to Campbell location. Overall good visit.

Unless the store is being remodeled, shopping there today was boring and a waste of time. No inventory again. Out of decent smelling hand wash 🙄 Ive been waiting for you guys to replenish the baking supplies especially your Madagascar vanilla. Its been almost 2 months now! Are you guys going out of business? There is no reason why the shelves should be this damn empty! Get it together!!!

Nice friendly cashier. Items are not that cheap unless on clearance. Eg, $3 Little Debbies are $2.80.

Big variety, some with really good prices. Stock changes fairly quickly. Know what you want and what you should pay and you may get a great deal.

Always helpful. Nice staff, but they are overwhelmed w work. Floors were filthy and while parts of the store were organized, customers are to blame for not putting things back. Good location with lots of parking.

I love going here you never know what your going to find and for a good price. Everyone there is friendly and willing to help you with any question you have. Cashiers are nice as well as very informed o f whats on the floor. The manager is the best they ever had. Excellent store to shop at. If you dont see what you want ask for it.

Review №37

Found some good deals, and not so good deals. Its mostly all fair priced goods, but the quality of lets say electronics is💩sad to say. Other household products are reasonable but again, sad to say, Target has better prices on stuff they push as lowest around...their pricing staff need to get out more. But friendly ladies on the registers and floor😁👍

Review №55

Store is well maintained with regularly rotating stock. Seemingly understaffed... nobody available to ask where an item might be. No furniture. They used to sell mattresses, couches, desks and whatnot. Easy parking. Not too busy.

Store floor is currently over-crowded with pallets of inventory. Be prepared for crammed aisles amongst holiday shoppers.

Jo
Review №61

This place is amazing. If you love a bargain like I do, this place is for you. Could be a bit messy some times, but I blame that on the shoppers. The workers appear to be trying to keep it organized.

Last time I was here this store was unorganized and seemed dirty. On this visit the store was organized and looked clean. The employees were very helpful and friendly, I really enjoyed my visit.

Ch
Review №65

These stores have a random selection of off-brand and usually lower quality products and the prices are not significantly better than you would get for better quality elsewhere. If you dont care how long it lasts, or if you find something on a clearance sale (cheap decorations after a holiday), Big Lots is maybe worth checking out, but I generally find this store depressing and disappointing.

Review №74

Considering how late in the day it was the place was very well-stocked and in relative order. There wasnt a lot of Chaos. I did ask a question of one of the cashiers and I got the If we have it, it would be... answer. I would really like it for such a small store if the sales staff actually know what they normally keep in stock. Also Ive noticed across Big Lots in several locations that they are constantly putting out product where only half of it has price tags and the other half is not marked at all. I find that a little bit annoying. Overall good shop though.

One of the better organized Big Lots. Only gripe was that on a mon at 4pm there were only 2 check outs open with lines 5 customers deep. Took about 10 mins to open another check stand.🤔

No shopping carts. Big items can not be reached like value size paper towels or tissue. Waited for customer support 15 minutes after the call was made, only one cashier, finally just left the store.

It around 2:30pm and they have alot of shipment in the aisles you cant even go through. Its quite unorganized as well, but they do have many awesome things. If it was orgaizated and aisles were clear of shipment for you to shop they would get 5 stars.

Review №98

The store was cool and a great place to get out the heat . But when yoy walk through the store and the only person who says anything is the person im guessing is the manager who was bragging to a soda stocker how big her frig is . He was trying to stock and was blocking the whole frig drink area and the drinks inside were not going to remain cold with the doors open. My friend and I both left with NO DRINKS! On a very HOT day. NOT COOL BIG LOTS !!NOT COOL!!
