Big Lots

I can honestly say this is the —:Next Big Thing When It Comes To Deals…: — – You can walk in there and see different Deals everytime (meaning you will never be bored) If, you love to save and really love deals this is the store for you. I am never disappointed when it comes to this store, I could be going in there for one Main Item && come out with bags full of deals. I love the customer service there as well I am always remember there and greeted when I walk in. And if you we’re to sign up for a savings card there, you even get more for your moneys worth with the coupons they have to offer, which you will get in your e-​mail.
The lines can sometimes be long, but hey everyone is there for the deals… what did you expect! If you have patience and know that you are leaving there with a BIG GRIN ON YOUR FACE knowing you just saved a ton of money, It’s truly worth the wait.
But, not everyone is the same and that’s totally fine but for those who have there eyes on the DEALS, I 100% recommened it.
Thanks,
&& have a BLESSED DAY!

I really like Big Lots stores. There’s always something interesting that I’ve never seen before, and prices are good. Customer service is generally pretty good. Sadly, at this particular location, I had a really bad experience where the cashier ignored me when I was trying to check out.
I had been there in front of her, waiting for 20 minutes because of a difficult transaction before me. When they were done, the cashier started looking at work schedules and talking to another employee instead of ringing me up. There was nobody behind me, so she could have taken 30 seconds to ring me up before moving on to whatever she needed to do. After 5 minutes of standing there I put the basket down, told her to forget about it, and started walking away. Her response was, «do you need something?» Me standing there for 25 minutes with a basket of items that haven’t been paid for yet should have been a clue.
I now avoid that location and go to other stores where I am not invisible.

A few really good deals, but you need to sift through the racks to find them. I usually come here with a specific item in mind and then leave with that and a few more things. Last time I picked up a wireless mouse and keyboard combo for $ 25. Sounded great but we got home and the keyboard was worthless :(The mouse was great so I figured that while still a gamble, it might be worth it to exchange the pieces for another try. I carefully packaged everything up and took it back in *without the receipt* (it was an even exchange, I didn’t anticipate a problem.) This *was* a problem. In a quasi rude manor the cashier informed me there was nothing at all she could do, even though we’re in their ‘club.’ What good is the club if they can’t use it to look up your receipts? Whatever. I will be back because it’s convenient and cheap. I also will save every single inconvenient little receipt. Period.

There is a lot of effort the employees at this store put into making the customer feel like an inconvenience.

Not the best but sometimes has good deals. There is always a line because there always only one cashier and they also go get price checks and leaves everyone waiting

if your lucky you can get really good deals, buy it if you want it, cause it wont be there next time you go

I know, I know, one-​starring Big Lots is attacking low-​hanging fruit, but I can’t help it. I’d been here once before to look around and wasn’t terribly impressed. Not enough to really care enough to even bother with a review.
Then this weekend happened. I was with my lady-​friend and we were eating some Indian food in the same little shopping center as this place and decided to take a gander at Big Lots because, hey, it’s Big Lots and sometimes they have some cool things for cheap! That was the plan anyway. Big mistake. Ha, get that? I kinda made a joke. Hilarious. Anyway, so this place is kinda trashed, there’s one apathetic employee, a line with five customers in it, and pretty much everything is overpriced and terribly cheap. That’s not big deal, because it’s Big Lots, and that’s how Big Lots is. Why the one star then? If it was just the store that was terrible, I could have cared less. Really, it’s mostly the single employee. Less than worthless. She was rude and unhelpful; after waiting in line for almost five minutes, she told us that the single item we were trying to buy didn’t have a price on it so we couldn’t buy it. …and then proceeded to help the next person in line. No price check or apparent concern, just kinda left us hanging. It just bothered me.
Anyway fuck this place and all of it’s shitty cheap Made In China baubles. I will take my discount shopping elsewhere.

I dropped $ 20 at Big Lots last weekend and it was kinda fun. I got two AKC dog toys (a possum & a chipmunk) that were extremely real looking. Three days later hey are missing most of their bodies, but that just means the dogs really loved them. They were $ 4 a piece, which might not really seem like a bargain but I did see the same toys at target for about $ 20 around the holidays. The other $ 12 was spent mostly on junk food, ginger orange snaps, a huge bag of mega M&M’s in crazy colors, a bag of chips with a salior on it that said «yo ho» that I bought for my boyfriend’s son who just became excepted into the Navy seals. Basically this is a good place to go if you are looking for cheap junk food that may not be stocked at your local HEB. Sometimes it’s fun to look at all the things that you could buy but really don’t need.
