I was convinced to go inside and aside from the funny signs that's all there is that's worth looking at.The place is bleh. I can get better quality using a coupon at Bed Bath & Beyond just go to Dollar General. Books I can get online same price and not grimy.

They have some good stuff. The store needs a cleanup tho. Better organization, better lighting, and cleaner floors would really help it feel nicer.

True to their bargain promise, always get a good deal here, and free coffee too!Staff is very friendly.Only star lost was for the poor condition of the floors and lack of organization (shelves jammed into each other, books etc).I would recommend shopping here before some of the thrift stores which is saying alot.

You never know what you'll find, take your time and look around. The stores are usually cluttered because of the customers pawing through everything though. I've found that different stores get different stock so checkout multiple locations if you can.

Amazing store with great prices, products, and staff! The staff is so friendly, especially Mary who helped us during our visit, she was very helpful and a great member of their team. I don't know if she's the manager but definitely deserves a raise.

This place is anything but a bargain. You can find most of the items here better price at their original location or better off on sale. Stuff here is marked either as it was or even higher. Maybe, just maybe you’ll find something that is a decent bargain, but it won’t be something you need.

There was a terrible smell in this store when I visited. (First time visiting this location since it moved - I liked the other location more because it felt bigger, but this location is more convenient for shoppers) It smelled like there was a broken pipe somewhere. I only lasted about 10 minutes before I had to leave. I hope to give this store another chance one day. If I do, I will update my review accordingly.

I love this Ollie's. Close to home, so much great stuff. Affordable prices. I've lived here 16 days & already spent $400 at Ollies.

I adore the savings I get at Ollie's. It is a shame we don't have them in Canada.

We went to Ollie's today to check their latest selections in the BOOKS section and found a couple that we had to have. We also did some grocery shopping and were treated to a "Military & Veteran discount" of 10% when "Kim" rang us up, after verifying my Veteran status. Bonus! The only downside, resulting in a 4-Star rating today, was the same old selection in the YARN department. Bummer!

Too much stuff to see what I'm looking for. There is no strategy where things are placed.

Its a hit and miss. Kudos to those who show up every day. They are in the middle of transitioning to a new location so hopefully they can keep things clean and organized. Great place to get toys for the holidays, great places to find hair and body products. Prices are fair but I would do my homework when it comes to products that may contain dates.

It's hard to give a good review about this store. Although I like the bargains the current location is very dingy and dirty and the staff is not friendly in the least bit. However to play devil's advocate they are in the process of moving to a new location so perhaps that will improve things.

I love going to this store! They have a lot of selections and if you don't pick it up you might just miss out on it! They also have really nice folks working over there! Always courteous and very hard working.

Deals are great, not a huge selection though.

There's always a lot to choose from, so sometimes it can feel a little cramped in sections, but its never overwhelming. Store is kept clean, workers are friendly and helpful. Merchandise will change or sometimes be in small quantities so keep that in mind when you see something you like.

Pretty interesting store, not one we have in Canada. It's a surplus store, so there's just sort of a wide variety of stuff that you can choose from; from books to groceries, clothes and outdoor supplies. They have a lot of inventory to look at.My one knock would be the overall feeling of disorganization. It reminded me sort of a big flea market or yard sale. This may not be a turn off for everyone, mind - it was just sort of hard for me to find and focus on stuff to look at because I almost felt overwhelmed at having to look at the disarray. They obviously know it's like this as they had something to the effect of, "if you think it's messy now, you should have seen it before we cleaned up!" painted on the wall (which gave me a chuckle).This could easily have been a 4 or 5-star for someone else - if you like digging for deals this is definitely a place to take a look.

The deals on books make this place worth going to often! We recently were able to fill a hand basket for 99 cents. We ended up with 28 books ranging from motivational, adult fiction to kids stories, non fiction and activity books...for a dollar total. Checking in for their regular steals is well worth it.

The slogan says it all.. great stuff cheap. I hate paying full price for good quality things.. Everytime I go in I Google actual prices of products usually they are literally 25% of retail.. big up to ollie's.. be smarter about your money with the economy and everything else going up.
