They sell a little bit of everything for a cheaper price. Good quality products from food to tools and everything in between. So if your looking for a card to a radio, TV dinners or uncooked meats to candy or gum, cold sodas or waters. You name it they got it, your one stop shopping needs. And handsome to pretty smiles all day!!!...🤗🙂😀
I just left this store and I am disgusted by their service. I got on a line and the cashier rudely told me, “the line is over there” without ever looking at me. Then when I get on the other line and I think I’m about to be helped, the next cashier tells me that she is now on lunch. I work in customer service and am shocked by the level of unprofessionalism I experienced. The “manager” was no better so I am not surprised by the staff.
Cashiers are very quick. Even when theres a line, it moves pretty quickly, unlike other family dollars I have been to. (Mind you this is with only 2 cashiers). Great job guys.
Been coming here for almost ten years. This is the place for value on household cleaning items.There are major problems with this store, however. Management shifts every few months because it seems no one can handle it. Theres a lot of vitriol from the customers, often making this an unpleasant and even dangerous place to work, even in broad daylight. But then again, the anger among the workers is always present too, sometimes only serving to push the irate customers over the edge. On several occasions I stood in line while the workers scrambled to call the police to eject an unruly customer. Other times, brawls broke out as people tried to cut other customers in line.I find that the rudeness from the employees occurs most when you have to interact with them on any level. Politeness is often rewarded with still more rudeness from the staff. Many appear burned out at the job. The little things like how are you, thank you and have a good day are lost on them, and only seem to infuriate them more. There is also a fair amount of racial tension in the neighborhood at large, and it spills out into this and many other retail stores in the area.Over nine years+, Ive seen a lot of people come and go. Many seemed as though theyd never had a job before, given their age and lack of skill.The good workers dont last long, the worst of them stay for years. Your experience in the store depends very much on which particular set of employees happens to be working. The simplest things become nearly impossible to accomplish when all the wrong people are involved. We see that every time the checkout line is 20 people long, arching through the aisles. This is quite normal for this location, because though there are 3 working registers in-store, they only ever have one overworked, frustrated & hopeless employee actually working the line. The others busy themselves with restocking the shelves & standing guard for shoplifters, no matter how many people are on the line. There are also technical issues with the registers that are completely out of the staffs control, clearly neglected by Corporate for years.I frequent the store for cleaning supplies. They carry a lot of generic products that are actually quite good. The fake Windex does the job. The Swiffer pads are just $5.00/12 pads. The large generic jugs of white vinegar are just a dollar. One can get laundry supplies for $5.00 or less. Go across the street to the Chinese-run Dollar Store and youll find these items marked up by .25-$1.00 more each, which adds up quickly. By comparison, a haul of $25.00 at Family Dollar can last weeks with the right center of frugality. My best advice is to go and shop in bulk, buying as much as you can carry, so that you lessen the number of times you need to visit. In the last year, its been the only way I can tolerate Family Dollar at all.
Most times just one cashier available with long lines. Very cheap priced items store wide, but most whats considered groceries are completely unhealthy and will likely do more harm to our bodies than anything else.
On Sunday August 28 2016 I walked into the Family Dollar on Fulton St (1090) at about 5pm to purchase mens deodorant (RightGuard). At the time there was none on the shelves (mostly no kind of deodorant was available). I asked a staff member when would the item be available. He told me Monday. I came back Monday and the shelves looked exactly the same. I asked another staff member the question. The answer that it would be available Tuesday. I came back today and the shelves where the as the to previous time I entered the store so I left.I have noticed since new management and staff members have started working there it has not been as well kept as it was in the past.P.SAll the pack out containers have been in font of the shelves since I entered the store on Sunday. Im sure if you send some to check right now you will see everything that I have stated is true.Thank you Elijah Brackett
Sorry to say it like this but this place is complete trash. I went in to get a birthday card for someone today and they have old Thanksgiving cards and cards for grandsons, grandchildren, get well soon and thats all. It’s also sloppy! You can tell that section hasnt been touched in years. I will not be returning.
This is probably the best maintained Family Dollar in the area. It doesnt look like a junkyard like the others do and the staff is very polite. The actually greet you when you walk in the store!
Honestly, sometimes there store be full packed but, mostly they are always out of stocks.
My gracious appreciation to District Manager, Brian & Store location Supervisor (Tiffany) for resolving my issue. Tiffany, you totally rock. God Bless
Service was moderate, store was not clean. One person behind registered working, the other two clerks doing something else.
Usually appears ransacked, always in a state of unboxing/stocking. That being said I go for the detergent prices and snacks when Dollar Tree (same company) is out. Cashiers remain like my name: stoic. All seem to be unhappy drones. When you look around the store you can see why. Every Family Dollar Ive seen in Brooklyn remind me of the run down, depressing appearances of Kmarts in the South: dingy floors, institutional lighting and the like.
They have lots of bargains, that may be expensive in other stores; so its a good idea to rack up on the ones you want. The store is a bit messy though.
Family dollar is the place to go for value. If you want to pay less for everyday items, go here. They have all the convenience items. The store is organized well. The staff is good.
Really nice staff but shelves were bare
I want to get the employees name before I can write my review. Stay tuned for more!
For the last five days of this store and look like a Harricane hit it says theyll new management it its turbo It dont make no sense everything is on the floor its like someone walk down the o An just not every thing out of order they need to hire more people since the last manager was transferred it and thats the worst Im so they must do better or they should just close it down because it looks a mess I have never seen that store looked like that for the last five days it truly looks bad that short staffed now They have to hire more people for the safety of the worker I hope things get better I would not go back to that store again and Ive been in and out of this store for yrs👎🏾
Clean. They have merchandise thats on sale. Cashiers and all staff are very helpful.
I ❤ family dollar. Just not a fan of the customers that walk through the doors. They make me want to stop elsewhere
Workers are always polite. Never crowded.
Good store i love family dollar and they say good morning to everyone that walks in 👍🏾
Hi. Family Dollar is the bomb! Its all the good stuff that you find in Target, but half the price.
Very affordable and lots of items to choose from with friendly customer service
I love the fact that I get cheaper prices on the items I use. Some of the store brand items are good too.
Cashier were rude started giving attitude just because i asked for the receipt machine was not working still waiting for the machine to reboot been here for the past 30 minute for a stupid receiptThis was one of the worst experience i had in the fulton street FM branch

2020-10-06Affordable food, socks, underwear, household items, pet products, whats not to love? Visit here was for a cat litter pan. Great price. Better than pet store. Very happy with purchase. Little understaffed, but cashier was pleasant and professional. Shop here for all your affordable Crown Heights needs.

2019-11-08Few days ago I was pick up a few thing from family dollar and I my card was not work I was not able to buy anything that day but when I came back the next day as soon as I walk in the store the manager told me is everything good because it took me all day to put the things you pick up and did back.I told I’m ok he ask again are you sure.At this point I was not feel like that he did want to buy anything I still got a few items but the a different employee.Said to me are you sure that you can buy everything here and started to break down how much of every item that I pick very slowly like if I did know how much everything was I feel the manager and the employees was making fun of me in front of other people in the store the action they took with me was rude and it makes me feel embarrassed to go back in to this location again.

2021-06-13I gave this Family Dollar 1 star because I wasnt allowed to post if I didnt give it a star. The shelves have been basically empty in this store since stores reopened because of covid. If you need cleaning supplies for the home this is not the Family Dollar to go to.

2018-11-05Ive only been shopping here for a month and most of the employees working here are rude and have HORRIBLE customer service skills. How do they keep their jobs? I dont like stepping foot in this store but I like the prices and I just downloaded the app to save $. They need a whole new staff on board or a new training on great customer service! Also, the store is dirty and unorganized. You can barely walk through certain aisels...

2021-07-23I guess I went on the wrong day shelfs were empty,they did have pallets in each aisle. Im assuming that they are getting ready for the weekend.
