Big Lots in other cities:
Not too clean..most items I looked at had no price or was priced higher than the sign.Let me just say first, for the most part, the employees do try and usually get great service!Well, you definitely lost 2 stars due to the service I received today 11/23/21!!First off, once again, most items were not marked with a price tag, Im physically disabled and am NOT going to bring a bunch of stuff to the register, find out how much and then decide if I want it. Its VERY frustrating!When I checked out, this girl Ive never seen before, made it obvious that she didnt want to be there at all!! Very slow, not helpful. Of the two simple questions I asked, her response was I DUNNO and instead of trying to find out she just went on ringing items!! She seemed frustrated that my Big Lots credit card itself didnt work, but I explained that the account is fine, she just has to enter it manually. She appeared very annoyed 😠 at that concept. (Another annoyance for me as well since Ive only used the card one other time) anyway, I told her she was a pretty girl and it would probably help to at least smile. She was obviously annoyed by this too and made a sarcastic comment! My mood went from joyful to upset immediately.There is so much wrong in the world these days that its so unfair for my day to be ruined over a person who displays such contempt for the job!! If youre not happy there, work ELSEWHERE!!I live alone and aside from my grown child and friends calling me every day, store employees are pretty much the only face to face contact I have with other human beings. Im really very sick of it all!! If I go back to that store,(BIG IF) and see her there, Im walking back out.
Bought a leather section with a $300 warrenty. The seems split in 3 different places and the leather began pealing and long and behold the $300 warrenty we were told would cover to either r fix or replace the couch, doesnt cover seems or basic Wear and tear.Such a waste of money and I will never purchase from here again.
Great prices on many items even those that can be difficult to find. The store is usually clean and tidy. There is usually only one cashier however we have never had to wait long in line. I buy all my Febreeze plug-in here because they are available at the best price I have seen. They always have a nice assortment of holiday decorations too.
The store tries hard, but sometimes lacks a better in store experience for its shopping guest. Better merchandising and cleaner isles would go a long way. Generally thestaff is nice and prices are right for a number of products that are sold.Just seems the store needs more direction. Location very convenient.
Nice store with a lot of varied items. Snacks, furniture, outdoor furniture, gardening supplies, outside lights, planters etc.Nice store over all.My only complaint is there is always a long line and usually only one register open. Last visit there were three employers in the register area, only one cashier dealing with returns and new purchases.Got a great deal on potting soil and planters last visit.
Prices are pretty good. When you can find an employee they are quite helpful. But the could have more staff and be better stocked on the shelves. It was an okay experience. Its not a bad store and employees are friendly and helpful but this store has room for improvement. I will shop there again byt its not my first choice due to what things i have mentioned.
I always go here when I need a quick snack or even gift for a friend or family member. They have plenty of gift sets that are perfect for the holidays at great prices. The couches and other furniture that they have here are very nice and comfortable feeling in stores. Mattresses are also sold here.
I was in the store on Wednesday approximately 1 p.m. to which the person in front of me had a return without a receipt. The cashier called the manager for assistance he advised her to leave a line of customers to go seek the item. Perhaps more training for managers is necessary.the first thing taught is take care of your customers not leave a line of people and go try to find an item.
Big Lots is a cross between a general store and the flea market. A little bit of everything is available here, including household furnishings, food, clothing, toiletries, cleaning supplies, and seasonal items. Most prices are discounted moderately to deeply.The food is mostly non-perishable items. There are many European imports, such as Scandinavian berry preserves and German cookies. There is a small refrigerated section with a limited selection of dairy and packaged cold cuts. There is no produce or other highly-perishable food.If you shop around, there are some great values here. For example, Fresh Finds brand oatmeal in the large 40-oz containers is $2.35--well under half the going rate for Quaker, and I think the quality is actually better, too.The downside is that there are no guarantees at all as to what is in stock. Just as you get used to some steal deal you think youve found, it may dissappear. And then just as youre thinking its gone for good, it pops up again. Think of it as cheap entertainment.
Weve gone to other places for furniture but could find what we needed. My wife suggested BLs since we had success here in the past. Its reasonable furniture nothing fancy. They had what we needed and at a good price. What also was nice was the young man who was putting furniture together in the back. He went out of his way to be helpful. This was a plus. I only wish I asked his name to include it in review.A+ Big Lots.
Love it. Wouldve given 3 5 stars. Most prices really are very reasonable. Lots of variety. Reasonable return policy. The Issues were more in the presentation. Poughkeepsie store was sloppy and disorganized. Also you really need to know what youre buying. Be careful with non premium brands. The quality can be substandard
I find that when I go to Big Lots it is hot and miss. Sometimes I find what is on my list or part of my list. Other times I dont really find what Im looking for at all. They do have good deals on seemingly decent quality products. It can be annoyingly busy with only one register open.
Here to, I used to love this store but now its like pulling teeth to get someone to help you and be curtious doing so instead of acting like youre bothering them. Most of the time there is a lot of stuff on the floor and in the way and since my mom is legally blind, its dangerous for her because she could trip and fall. The fact is she loves this store and spends a lot of money here, I think people should be a little more respectful and also keep the store a little neater. I understand its hard when people are coming and going and taking stuff from one place and cramming it somewhere it doesnt belong, but isnt that what the staff is paid in part to do?
Employees are very rude walked in at 8:50 and the cashier proceeded to yell at me “THE STORE IS CLOSING IN 5 MINUTES” was very annoyed bc I needed 2 items , at 8:55 she said over the store that the store closes in 5 minutes and she will be turning the lights off and to stop shopping and come up with the items i had. (I was the only customer in the store) What an awful customer service experience, I understood that the store closed at 9 but i would’ve been out of the store at 9 if I wasn’t being harassed by the employees. I will not be returning to this store, shame on big lots it will be the next k Mart in a year tops
Love love love Big Lots! Been broke ever since they came to town. More Dept store feel than Ocean State, but I like them for different reasons. Avoid furniture unless youre really broke (like me). Nice lot of bedding and bath, just check quality on some. Overbuy cubes and the fabric boxes.
Only put one star because you need to put one to make a comment. The manager here is a piece of garbage, She disrespected me over the phone. I m was talking to her over the phone and then she was very rude to me. She should not be able to deal with with customers. Ive always bought furniture from Big Lots until now.
You are here by ordered to cease and desist tracking my cell phone from this moment until the end of time. Failure to adhere to this demand will be met with severe financial repercussions to your firm and major protracted legal action. Additionally I will initiate a major internet negative response to the detriment of your firms, reliablility integrity and honesty which, with luck, will cause you to lose major clientele, and investors. Once again CEASE and DESIST at ONCE!!!!
Not so clean, junk in the isles . Hard to walk around, checkout guy was so rude..wont go back here, dont go where people treat others like garbage..i understand everyone has bad days, but the checkout guy treated me, and the guy behind me bad,. We didnt do anything to him, rude idiot.
I got ripped off because they have a big sign saying cards or one to two dollars unless marked and I bought two cards and come check out my total was $16 I bought a few other things but I kept adding up in my head shouldnt be that much I bought something for under a dollar something for $5 and two cards how the hell is $16 well I get home Ill look at the receipt and both cards were five dollars apiece

2022-02-28I would give zero stars if I could. Ordered a couch no communication about the delay in delivery. Three times Rescheduled and no one even bothered to let us know they were notComing. Now I’ve been double charged and again no resolution just the run around

2019-02-27I want to pay homage and express my gratitude towards your staff/employee named Caleb. I was in your store on this past Friday, 4/27/2018. I came over to your store seeking beds for my grandchildren after not being able to purchase the mattresses needed at your Centerville store. Unlike your Centerville store, I was greeted immediately and waited on in a professional and timely manner. The thing that impressed me the most was the fact that there were others in the store potentially shopping for furniture, your employee (Caleb) was able to accommodate all parties in just the most admirable way.I finally narrowed which bed I wanted though initially, I was halted between two opinions. Caleb provided the information that I needed in order for me to make the best purchasing decision for me. However, after he called the company to set up delivery and assembly, they stated that they could deliver the next day; however, they were unable to assemble until next week. Well, Caleb offered to come put the bed together himself on Monday or Tuesday at no additional cost to me the consumer.I wanted to compensate him for his kindness and willingness to put the beds together, and he simply refused. You really dont find this level of courtesy and professionalism in customer service much anymore if ever.It would be a shame for me to not at least take a moment to make mention of this experience because these type of retail experiences are so few and far apart.So, in essence, I just wanted to make known the extent of my gratitude in hopes that you will also acknowledge this employee as one who is not only courteous, but also conducts business with an attitude of excellence.

2020-07-19Good discounts on a variety of household items. Keep in mind it is a discount store so things like delivery or furniture set up, or special orders may not be available. Prices are inexpensive so you tend to get what you pay for. Cashiers are pleasant and helpful too.
