Ross Dress for Less

Ross is Ross… and I always find something I need or want. This location I found a lot at but compared to other stores this one had a lot more broken items and less staff so the line was pretty long to check out at a time during the say when it should be pretty easy breezy.

I like that Ross has pretty great prices on items you would find in department stores. The unfortunate part about Ross is you usually have to dig and dig to find the size or color you’re looking for. If you don’t, it can be a huge disappointment. I’d rather spend the extra money to save my sanity when it comes to clothing or shoes. However, they do usually have a great selection of hand bags and housewares. I found an adorable light up front door mat for $ 10! I stocked up on brand name mixing bowls and sheet pans when I bought my house. If you can find the color/​size/​brand/​amount you want, then Ross is awesome!

lots to look at but i didn’t find a thing. the place was laid out well. plenty of parking.

Why is every Ross store so damn depressing? I imagine this particular store to be what purgatory is like — blindingly bright/​white, mostly empty, and disorganized, yet quiet.
I mean, if you’re balling a budget and you like to gamble, Ross is for you. Admission is cheap and you never know what you’re going to get (just kidding, you’re going to get a cheap bath towel and a men’s dress shirt with dragon embroidery).

This Ross beats out the rest in Vancouver. The isles were neat and the shelves were well stocked. They even had a few items not found at other locations: gardening tools, furniture, etc.

Really low on stock at this location, but I wanted to take advantage of sales tax free shopping and knew I would find something. Bought some new athletic kicks and a couple of other things. I can always find something I don’t really need but buy anyway. Love me some Ross.

Ross has a tendency to be completely bat shit messy. Can’t find anything.
This one seems a lot more picked up than most stores, and normally has a good amount of great designers.
But yesterday I walked around the whole store and left having purchased a $ 2.99 spatula. Only because I was tired of flipping eggs with a fork and ruining a perfectly good over easy egg. But I felt a little sad holding this solo purchase and wishing there was anything else I could buy. but nope.
The purse and shoe selection was a total let down.
Why am I reviewing Ross?
My friend bought a cute skirt for $ 6.99, so there is that.

The store seemed a bit light in the merchandise. Almost like a little girl that dresses up in her mommy’s clothes. A great big space and not quite enough stuff to fill it up. The store seemed pretty clean and somewhat organized (I don’t think an organized Ross store even exists). When we came and walked around the store, there was practically no one there. I hope this store gets some business or it will be out of business.

Since this one is a newer Ross it doesn’t have that total ghetto feel to it like some of the ones in the city do. This location is out by the airport and in with some newer stores. I think people are just discovering this location, so we will see how bad they let it get.
I bought a big 3×5 mirror for $ 29, so that was a good deal, however, I had to dig through the ones they had because most of them had chipped corners.
So, if you don’t mind standing in the traditional long long long Ross lines to save a few dollars then this location might be a good pick for its ghetto-​less atmosphere.

Very disorganized and over picked. Merchandise strewn about. Yicccch. I love me some Ross, but this location needs help. The selection of dresses was disgraceful and jumbled with some of the sleaziest Ross-​wear I have ever encountered at a verrrry reduced price.
What’s up with this spot? Is it where the stuff from other Rosses comes to die?

This is probably the best Ross I have ever been to. and yes, I have been to many! The selection was great and the store was clean and organized for the most part.
Since it is the holiday season, they had a ton of gift items towards the front of the store which made it easy for me to find some great gifts for those that are hard to buy for.
It’s also in a really nice shopping center that includes a target and Ikea!

What? A Ross that is relatively clean, organized, and friendly staff? It’s a miracle! I think this is the first one I’ve been to that actually has some resemblance of a regular store.
I come in this store frequently because I like the whole no tax thing. Plus it’s a little easier to find things than other Ross stores I’ve been to. I’m pretty sure others feel the same way because they come with their little brood of screaming children that run amuck through every inch of the store. Can’t they just stay in the children section of toys and clothes? I want to be able to enjoy my discount shopping thank you very much.

Five stars for the free birth control effect of aisles filled with screaming, yelling, crying children. Chastity belt instantly tightened.
Five stars for Burberry perfumes for $ 19.99. Five stars for 90-​year old security guard on a Segway.
One star for really awful cashier. One star for super dirty floor. One star for way less selection than the other Ross Stores in town.
I guess that evens out to three stars, how ’bout that?

Ok… so until Ross opened at Cascade Station… I had never been in one…
My coworkers were shocked and demanded that I shop… Ok… twist my arm… I will shop.
I have lost some major weight in the past 2 years and had always been avoiding Ross… thinking I was too heavy and nothing would fit… but 70 pounds lighter… I was ready to try… (not that I am at my goal by any means) but ok…
I go in… and it is like a mall in one store… everything from shoes to handbags… jewelry and home goods… Designer… and no names… it was interesting…
My first trip was a mission to get my boyfriend a shirt for our trip to California… I left with a couple of shirts for him that were inexpensive and looked amazing!
Back from vacation… I thought i would shop for myself… I have found 10 tops and 2 pairs of jeans… socks and one pair of shoes and one handbag that all suited my personality to a T.
The best part… the prices! Paying 10.00 for a perfect pair of jeans that fit my bootylicious curves… is a girls dream come true. I had been avoiding buying clothes because I didnt want to spend tons of money on in between sizes… but not buying new things left me feeling frumpy…
Now I feel sexy and confident and know that I can find things for my shape in a place like Ross.
and I am by no means at the top of the size scale… so to all you big and beautiful ladies… dont be scared like i was… get out there and buy yourself something to strut around in downtown or on the east side…
Rock it girls! (and you guys too!!)

You get WAY more than you pay for!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Ross!
This new one is cleaner than most. I did not have to step over and around piles on the floor like other places.
Walk in — go to my two aisle.
Found to super deals!
Walk out.
Only things I buy there:
Lucky Jeans, English Laundry & 7 Diamond shirts.
It is like a secret mission shop. I almost feel guilty paying 20% of retail.
Dont tell your guy friends or I will not be able to find my sizes.
