Deb Shops

Being the plus size variety, it was hard finding jeans at «normal» stores, so I was forced to shop at places like Deb.
No one will greet you when you walk in, even though there may be upwards of four girls working. Also a note, I’ve never seen a plus size associate here… kind of disheartening.
No one will notice you when you stand at the fitting room. You’ll literally have to yell for them to let you in, or you’ll have to do the legwork and find someone.
Deb consistently puts clothes on clearance with red pen on the tags, then takes them «off» clearance by whiting out the clearance tag. I wish I were kidding, but I’ve seen this so many times over the past few years.
Deb sells their own line of jeans (Reign) and a few national brands like Zana Di and Paris Blues. Reign practices pretty obvious vanity sizing, as I’m at least one size smaller in Zana Dis or PBs. Keep that in mind when trying to find stuff for the dressing room you’ll never get into.
Their jeans are pricey for what they are ($ 32.99−36.99), and if you’re a size 20 or less, you may be better off shopping at Old Navy instead because their jeans are always on sale, and they have a wider range of lengths and cuts available.
Deb has been good for one thing and that’s clearance dresses. They sometimes have $ 90 fancy cocktail dresses on clearance for $ 10. They’re not going to be the quality you’d find at Macy’s or Saks, but for $ 10, they should do just fine.
Since I’ve lost weight, my goal is never to step foot in a Deb again. If you have to visit, just be prepared for a total lack of friendly service and fitting rooms.

I’ve been to this store a couple of times and I’ve never had a bad experience until today.
I was there shopping with my best friend and we were talking about the jeans they had on sale. Overhearing our conversation the manager simply butts in and says rudely «I overheard you and I wanted to tell you that all the jeans are on sale we just haven’t got over to that side to sign them yet». Really? No one was talking to you.
When we wanted to try on clothes, the associate handling the dressing rooms let a line of three people form (no one was in the dressing rooms mind you) before she stopped what she was doing to let us all in rooms.
There seems to be rotating employment there because I never seem the same associate there twice and the manager is a rude «b».
Oh and I’m just going to put this out there, if your a plus size girl the clothes say there are 1x, 2x, etc. they aren’t. Nothing there ever fits right. And for arguments sake, I’ve shopped there when I was younger and wore a size 12 and the clothes were still odd.
On a positive note, their accessories are really cute and they have some cute clothes, just ill-​fitting.

Ok, so I know this isn’t the classiest store to begin with, but the service I had today was beyond the pale. I go in, looking for a dress to wear to a friend’s wedding next month, find a few that aren’t obviously the product of an unholy union between polyester and a bedazzler, and ask an associate if she could let me into a fitting room to try them on. She says she can’t, but she yells for someone else to come let me in. This other associate yells back «i’ll be right there», and so I wait.
About five minutes later, there she comes. However, instead of letting me in, she begins chatting and laughing with the associate I originally asked. I’m standing about 4 feet away from them, with an armful of dresses. This goes on for about another 5 minutes. Occasionally they look at me. I’m pretty angry about this, so I’m tapping my foot, sighing… they obviously know I’m there, and that I need to be let in. Yet they continued talking and laughing.
Eventually, I just hang my stuff up on the nearest rack and march out. As I’m leaving, one of them yells to me «have a great day!». Wtf?! Trashy store, run by trashy people. I definitely won’t be back to this shithole.
