I really like this store. They have tons of different selections from food, groceries, chips, soda, house goods etc. Some days its a hit or miss. Depends on when you go. I notice on Tuesdays they put up new merchandise and items. I usually visit at least once a week.
My favorite store to shop when Im in the city. They have everything at great prices. I always leave out spending more than what I intended cause of their large variety of items.
Store is kind of depressive as you can feel that people shopping there are very poor.The store itself has a plethora of good deals but the vibe is off
Now that Jacks allows EBT, the shopping experience is better than ever! But get there fast, because supplies on some things are limited and go fast!
Jacks has a good variety of items from house wares to appliances to clothing to food and more. Reasonable prices and now takes SNAP
Big fan of Jacks...although I sincerely miss the days when the entire downstairs was 99 cents I still alway manage to find some amazing bargains. Todays score included a good brand of canned anchovies rolled with capers or flat at 2/99 and very good small packages 3 - 3.5 oz of french truffles 2/99 cents too.
My Favorite Place Since 95 When I Used To Visit Manhattan Stayed In Pennsylvania Hotel, Everyday I used to pay visit 2 times. You can get everything here more or less in a very convenient price.
Go in and out, grab what you need, and make your way to the registers as quickly and efficiently as humanly possible. The store is in the middle of Manhattan, so its convenient enough, but the characters that come through the store can be at-times, questionable.
Reminds me a lot like DollarTree. Good service and reasonable prices. Have things you can find in a grocery store.
Loved Jacks. I got some great bargains on reading glasses, masks & a few other items. Floor staff was very helpful in directing me to where items were located. Check out was a breeze & cashier greeted me and was very friendly & professional. I went back today & again found some great reading glasses for a tenth of the price at regular stores! Thank you Jacks!!
Great values on the items I bought. The line also moved quickly. The myriad of items sold makes it interesting to shop each time I go to NYC. Great deal on Focaccia bread, bought it twice, the first time, with herbs and the second time with tomatoes.
Great prices and stuff for the home or to eat. Plenty of goods to choose from and well organized.
I hadnt been to Jacks in such a long time. I was remembering the variety of goods that they had when I was going there. I went to BOTH locations in the city. A lot of changes have taken place, especially with COVID. The first one by the library looked the same by appearance but the cosmetic section was practically invisible. It was even worse by the one on 6th Ave. Theres no third floor! 💔😡Now, theres just ONE BIG FLOOR!!
Hmmm. It’s not looking too good for Jacks. 2nd floor is NOW CLOSED. Inventory is NOTHING like it was before…..Another victim of the pandemic. Sadly
Been going jacks for about 20 years and always find a bargain i like the personel very much and the prices are reasonable
Great prices on baked items (bagels, Pep.Farm breads), cookies and some condiments and box preparation items, chips, candy selection is huge, occasionally frozen specialties and bargain prices. BE SURE YOU KNOW THE RETAIL PRICE before you buy thinking its a good deal, it isnt always so about 25% of the time, esp in bath , beauty products and refrigerated items
They have lots of goods at a good price. The only thing bad here is the pick pockets. When the store gets crowded, you have to have your hand in your pants pocket, over your wallet, when you are not pushing your shopping cart.
Great deals during this great depression!! Ur pockets will thank you!Have a good stock of items while most stores shelves remain barren and still manage to keep prices low! Also have alot of items for the summers inside or outside! Check it out!
Jacks have everything you need from food to household items at a great price.
I hope God bankrupt this company. All they pursue and value is ripping people. I’m shopping at this store almost every day and one day I wanted to change $20, out of 10 registers they said they had no change. Unbelievable. They don’t know how to give to society, they only focus on taking people’s money but not giving society anything. Not even changing a small money for customers even when they are shopping. Since when did we lost humanity and human value. All I see from these people is that they are being deprived of human morality and chose to be valueless which is a big shame.
Great store, great people and great prices. They have things that the 32nd street location dont have like certain food items.
Always stop by this fun store whenever Im in New York. All kinds of interesting things and decent prices. Their 99 cent greeting cards selection is extensive and you can find hard-to-find holiday cards like to my cousin and his wife. Lines move pretty fast and the cashiers are very nice.
Love that you can find pretty much everything. Some priced like another store but most at a discounted price got a camenbert for c99.
They thankfully still sell greeting cards here for $1Store has greatly downsized in the last few years it is only 1 floor now
Very accommodating staff very friendly very helpful great great great prices and a very wide variety selection love this store, love this location even more
Unreal what can be found in this store. The prices are very reasonable 💯💯💯
Not everything is .99 cents. It use to be but you can still get GREAT buys. Superb prices on 💄 makeup - houseware 🐕 DOG 🐱 cat food - appliances - luggage 🍬 candy - toiletries - food - beverages. Just go - you wont be disappointed. Bring 2 recyclable bags. Youll definitely need it😀
Discount store . Everything you need . From food clothes toys electronics stationary cleaning supplies and more ! Love this store . Can’t buy just one item . Park right next door if you need it . Got to love it !
Good place to shop for bargains. These days we need all the bargains we can get!
This store has become smaller since the last time I was here. They used to have a 3rd floor space but its gone this time. Less packed and crowded. Plenty of things to choose from, you wonder how they are able to fill up their inventory & racks. Still plenty of good deals like the last time I was here, which was years ago. Its still worth another visit.
I love Jacks! You never know what they will have. If you find something you like. Stock up. They may not get it back next time.
Specials on cakes, bread. Never know. Good.
Prices are good .. mostly Chinese non branded stuff
Listen,Im going to tell you a secret,Jacks is one of the best stores in the city. This store is a discount store,but not just any discount store...because they have stuff,youd see in a discount store,and stuff...you normally wouldnt. Whenever,I get a chance, I shop there...they have two levels to work with,this is a large super store. Their location is only two blocks from 34thSt Herald Square,32ndSt and 6th Ave...know what though,check it out for yourself,youll see what I mean.
A good selection at much lower prices than Target. See 360 pictures
My favorite store to go to when I am in the city. They have everything..... for great prices
This is one of my favorite stores to visit. I got a few of the things I went for. I picked up a few additional things, some things to try for the first time. It was ok. The store was prepared for not having crowds on line. Someone there to assist customers to the register. People seem to keep their distance. Store isles were clean, register had a shield between the customer and the cashier. I was a good visit. I didnt see all what I hope to, but was ok with my choices.
Not enough pet supplies. Only one choice for dog collars no variety. No one on second floor to assist customers. Aisle signs could be more visible. They were too small to see. Some areas of store were very disorganized just seemed like things were everywhere. Escalator wasnt working.
Jacks a mystery waiting to be discovered. You will find great deals, surprising closeouts and delicious treats. 😋. Restaurant catered food and desserts are a bonus. The lines are fast and efficient for quick stop. Beware of the mean Floor Manager at this particular location. Thats the only flaw.
You can always find something there for a bargain prices
About a block from Penn station is a store that had the upper hand on any $0.99 store in the city. For example water bottles were still 2 x $0.99 the latest time I visited. Haggendaz ice cream cup is $1.99. Anywhere else it will be Manhattan prices. Some items are more than $0.99 now. It feels as if inflation has hit the store.
Super cheap market have lot of things u never know what to expect
They are repairing the store. The second floor was closed. Limited things on the first floor
Must be under new ownership...what is up with the name? It used to be Jacks not jacks.I used to love this store when I was a kid (when everything was actually $0.99). Hardly anything $0.99 anymore, items are poor quality, and the store looks drab. The only things worth getting are snacks and drinks. The cashier today tried to overcharge me on my drink, then tried to tell me it was because of tax. I had to loudly remind her of the actual price of my drink which she admitted was correct and she then had to flag down a manager to correct the error (waste of time). I guess with so many different prices on items though, it world be too hard to keep track of everything.
Went in early for a single item (glassware) and only my schedule held me back from buying much more. Browser beware! Prices are great and discounted products abound.
Low prices. Certain kind of interesting stuff. Candies and candies. 😊
Great prices. Nice layout, good lighting. But caveat emptor on foods that are expired. Good deal on oatmeal and frozen seafood
I havent been in Jacks for about 3 yrs. They closed the 3rd floor. The 1st floor still has the food and random items. The 2nd floor still has houseware but the makeup/beauty section from the back is gone.
A bargain shopping paradise. Busy. Many items are a hit or a miss. Watch expiration dates on food and vitamins. Like Amazon some items may be available cheaper elsewhere. Sometimes the items are a special one time only sale.
Great place, nice customer service and just a pleasure to shop at.
Would of given 5 stars but havent gotten over getting stopped by security guards, accused of stealing. Im there practically every day being I live across the street. Otherwise great deals. If you find something you like buy it that day it may be gone by the next day.
I am a huge Jacks fan went in the store 2nd floor is closed so is 3rd floor. Everything is all on 1st floor less stuff I liked all the stuff
This place is just the best! You can’t come with a shopping list because you never know what you may find. If you like paying pennies on the dollar for everything from larabars to laundry detergent to nonstick pans, stop in here. Their staff is generally friendly and helpful, but can be a little hostile if you enter close to closing time. Even so, I love it here!
Great selections for the fraction price elsewhere. The line can be long at times but no worries though the cashiers are fast and efficient.
Cheap foodies, snacks and spoiled for choices! Candies for less than $2, is just insane to be found in NYC!! Please buy their brownie.. Its too good! Too good that i regret buying only 3 box.. :(
Oh so this store has everything! Even found my favorite breakfast treats at this ridiculous low price!
Been going here since the 1980s still the best Deals🤗💞
Its the best place for bargain it has everything from housewares to clothing cards for every occasion and now if you have a EBT card you can use it to buy food this store is a number one in my book check it out you wont regret it all thumbs up from me for JACKS 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great place to shop wonderful especially if you are fond of challah bread. I go to this location mostly although there is an other close by near 34 street.
Horrible customer experience. Once I was ready to pay I asked if theres a minimum amount to purchase with a credit card I was told $5 (was said very aggressively like I suppose to know) which isnt stated on the register... Anyways... I gladly &quickly continued to add a couple of things I needed anyways to achieve the amount. As I paid i noticed I didnt received a bag so I asked and I was told you didnt say at any point you need one!!! It costs $0.10(again aggressively and like I supposed to know, at no point I was offered a bag) responded with no problem I can pay, and paid with a dollar bill...In summary - very aggressive unpleasant cashier no customer service oriented.First and last time at this place.**Be Aware of EXTREMELY Short Expiration Dates**
Cheap stuff but good for any where from food to house wear and small toys ect..
Seems like this is where all of new Yorks junkies hang out. Security do nothing for anyones safety and very rude checkout staff
Good service full cashiers excellent selection on a lot they carry besides groceries large place different floors odds and ends. Been shopping for years now. Quality tops! 👍
A nice variety of items that are inexpensive, but for the food items check the expiration date. Long lines, but it moves fast. Bring your own bag, or pay for theirs. Enjoy!
They dont have bags big enough for some of the things they sell. But the prices are still lowish.
I have been coming here for so long I cant remember. Even through the pandemic they have stayed open. The staff here have always been so nice. They have consolidated the space over the last few years, but go visit them and find things you didnt think you needed plus a bunch of stuff you do need. Their refrigerated food section has some crazy deals, but it has never been sketchy, nothing I have bought was ever spoilt, etc.
Lol the names of the soaps. Love this place. So many cheap things to get here including food.
All shopping can be done here for 99¢ more or less
I found some great deals for Christmas. From gorgeous mugs with lids, umbrellas, bath sets and sweaters. The sweaters were a great deal at $6.99. Great quality. Check your merchandise before leaving. One of my male automatic umbrellas was busted. It was 5.99 & I dont feel like the hassle of taking it back.
NOTHING.....But I found some things at decent price but 99 cent No Mo
There has been a lot of improvements done to this store and they did do a good cleaning up job in the store, but they resale old good
This use to be a great store, not anymore!almost every item in the store cost over $1.They should change their name to $1 to $10store.Some bargains almost everything is now overpriced.Some items higher than the supermarkets!Serley, nasty, unfriendly cashiers!The store should run a class in goodcustomer service for their cashiers!!!!
Most favorite one stop shop for everything. Employees and security details is always in hand to assist customers
If you see, and like it, grab it! It might not be there tomorrow!They no longer have the upper floor,So everything was brought down to the main floor.
I love this place! Its always full of people and full of different things each time I go. The prices are super low and everything is very worth it.
Good store, cheap prices and always clean.
There are 2 floors stocked with everything you need at a discount price. Always crowded but check out is fast. Great place for every day items
Great prices on everything in the store. Wished I could have driven there cause I would have liked to purchase more than I did
New York hidden treasure. Always worth dropping in if youre in the nabe. Youll find a bargain somewhere. Upper floors closed. Cant wait for those bargains to come back, Jack.
This store used to be really good with three floors and the second floor used to extend to the back now it hardly has anything and they close the third floor and the back of the second floor they closed it. The store use to have a lot souvenirs. Now they have nothing. Store has gone downhill.
A great place to shop for all the illmatic selection ...word up jack aint no joke.
Love going to Jacks, great selection friendly staff. Always check Jacks when Im in the area
I liked this store for great buys near expiry date for cheap, but now they are scaling down possibly for closure, not sure, though still worth for it time.
Most everything can be found here at low prices, but I usually come here for the 99 cent cards.When I lived in the neighborhood, I would buy home goods and gift wrapping products.
Love Jacks. Got 3 prs of 2$ subglasses, 1. 00 cotton t shirts,Espresso coffee to hair accessories, they have everything.
It was a pleasure being in this store again. As a child my mother would take us here to shop. But they took them out of Jersey, well Newark anyway. But when I was in New York an looked up an seen the store I had to go in. The prices are still low,, but I see they also sell food now. So whenever Im in the area of this store I will always come in an look around for one of there great low price deals.
I always walk out with more than I go in for lol. They carry some really good items and good quality also. Seems they have downsized again but its totally understandable in this climate. I always make sure to stop in whenever Im in midtown. It would be nice if they could bring one to Brooklyn. Empire Blvd and Flatbush could use them.
There are a good prices most of the items in the center of Manhattan.
Jacks is a great place to go in NYC for anything you need. They have a little bit of everything. Any tourists who walks in will walk out with bags. I have been going to JACKS for years. There is not one time I can walk in and leave empty handed. Clean store and friendly staff.
I appreciate Jacks for the variety and quality of stock, as well as their prices. I noticed part of the 2nd floor was closed and a while ago the 3rd floor was no longer open. I hope this is not indicative of the future of Jacks remaining open. People from all over need and rely on Jacks. I can always find what Im looking for and more.
You get what you pay for, extreme discounts, tellers are accurate and fair with pricing items. Store can be difficult to navigate - but given prices its to be as expected, its like holiday pricing every day, most items are 50-90% other stores. If you can handle a store like lot for less youll be fine.
Great deals definitely a wide variety of products so pocket friendly snacks household items some clothes and much more fast and easy service
Jacks is a one in a million Store, One stop 🛑 shopping center at the lowest prices, very convenient, very spacious, and you can get everything under one roof........ Thank you Jacks for making it Convenient and Affordable to all.......I 🛑 there almost every morning on my way to work.....The cashiers are very quiet and polite.
Love the items they have in there and the food too
Cheapest store in Manhattan. For odds and ends its perfect. If you looking for high end shopping dont go there but for cheap everyday items it is perfect. Spacious layout too. Also difficult to find a cheap store like this in Manhattan so its very convenient!!
Great place to shop for quick items
The location on 32St has changed since my last time over a year ago. They have much more clothing items and food stuff on the main floor than ever. Upstairs the housing goods & small electronic, phone accessories & more food dominate. The hair, skincare & make-up area which was my main attraction, shrunk! And, which should be expected, prices increased by $.50-1.25. Still a good bargain store in midtown.
Nice items, enjoyed shopping there.
Jacks dept store is a great place. You can find almost anything you need from homegoods to low cost foods and everything in between. The main floor is mostly food items frozen, fridgerated and boxed, wrapped and canned foods. There are also a few bulk clothes bins of varying types at different times also there are usually seasonally based items on the main floor.The second floor is mostly cookware, there are also some appliances and things for your electronics and phone needs.
Quick easy finds for household cleaning supplies, home decor, small clothing items and more
Still a good discount store in Manhattan with lots of steals to be found. Not really for finding specific things but great for the bargain hunter!
They take EBT now. Go here to shop for things you dont need. The clothes are what you can find in bins. I bought several my size designer jeans for three dollars each here. The next time I went they were gone. They had sweat shirts here in the 1980s styles that were selling madly. Just three bucks. I bought on the racks upstairs several my size chiffon blouses in every color and they made me look good. Just five bucks each. They have all sorts of NY emblemed tourist gifts here for way less than the ones on the avenues. They usually have large size mens leather belts for five bucks each. Go here for things like socks and gloves. They have food here that are not too bad but think about buying them if you go home an hour on the train. I go here whenever I am in the area. Go here with a shopping cart and find bargains. The luggage is good and inexpensive. Ive found leather briefcases for ten bucks. They have things like tablet and computer covers very good priced. Anything you find here is comparable to other neighborhoods or just damn cheaper. Go here.
Jacks has some good deals. But be careful. You may still find better deals at Dollar Tree and Target, even Kmart (if its still around).I love Little Debbie Banana Twins, and often visit Jacks to purchase a box or two.The variety is wide from food to household products, including electronics and accessories for your cellphone.Again, carefully shop here. You may find better prices elsewhere. Sometimes you dont care, and shop for convenience.
Always a find in Jacks been going here for years. One stop shopping for sure. Something for the home something for your stomach 😋 something for beauty needs toys for tots party essentials and so much more
I was in and out within minutes staff was nice.
Excellent store. I have been shopping at Jacks since it opened. Clean, well stocked, great prices. A lot of cashiers that speeds check out.
Great variety and very reasonable prices
This is my store live it always a good place to shop reasonable prices
Once in a while, one might catch a break and get items that are hard to find. Other times one can still find great deals.
This store was a life saver while we were staying at the The Hope Lodge NYC. My husband was able to get things to eat, drink and even toiletries while I was in the hospital. The cost of the items were very inexpensive so it helps when budgeting long term care.
Its a store you find so many things in good price. I wish they open more space like before.
Good and decent shop. You can buy cheap party stuffs and some condiments. However not all the items are low costs or as it says dollar store. Look for items which are about dollar and see the quantity too. Most of them are of same rate as in other stores. Jack store reduces the price and quantity for few items. It is worth the visit if you are looking for party items n stationery. You get all kinds under one roof.
It is still a great store but theres nothing for a dollar... Im sure its hard to compete with Dollar General and the amazing rent this location must demand...Its a miracle its still here... many of us will remember this great Street used to have Jacks.. odd job training and Webers... and Conway stores with the pink bags... all gone except for Jacks...an era gone but never forgotten...
Jacks is like a magnet, it draws you in because its there. Browsing the store, wed pretty much guarantee that youll find something to buy. On our last visit we came in just to get something to drink which inevitable led to something to eat and then just a few more items including a nice $1.99 shirt!Two issues with this store however. (Is the manager reading this?) First, not all the drinks are priced in the fridge or on the list on the fridge. And secondly and this is a big annoying one.You need to change your like setup. Its like the wild West. In case you havent been in to Jacks, this is the setup. They have many registers open but there is no line so you just go she stand anywhere going to get to a register before someone else.Change this setup to a single line where the next register open calls the next person in line like so many other major retailers have switched to. This avoids the arguments between customers over whos next and make sure that nobody gets stuck behind a slow customer or cashier.Problem solved and watch your reviews go up even higher.
I just discovered this supermarket. Super cheap! Everything or almost everything is just $2.00. They have all groceries that you need with excellent prices. They have Dove shampoo and gel for $3, usually you pay double in CVS or similar markets. I will come back there for sure!
Read the whole thing please *Jacks Team Members*The store is an awesome place to spend your money on and spending time over there is definitely worth it, yeah sometimes the price tags are wrong and some items are found expired but overall the bargain is good, I love shopping there. One other thing that I would like to mention is that the manager lady *a old lady* is not really polite as she should be or a manager should be. She got a bad attitude towards the customers and as well as the employees. You ask her something and she just goes off on anyone she wants, she doesn’t care if it’s a customer or am employee. Some of my friends complained about the same thing too but again jacks is really welcoming place for those who like bargain.
Many bargains and good quality items.
Love this store, a 99 cent store on steroids. Have everything from soda and food to clothes, phone chargers, kitchen items and all types of specials.Sometimes it gets pretty crowded, but I use the cashier on the 2nd floor and it usually goes faster.
Great bargain store in the city for most everyday things you need
Ive been coming to this place since they opened. I used to double-check the price LOL!! At the time, everything was truly 99cents..That was so many years ago. They started off with one floor then expanded to have a 2nd and 3rd floor, which they later reduced to 2 floors. Times have changed but Jacks popularity has remained. Every manager/supervisor at my different workplaces would come into the city early just to take a trip to Jacks. This place is a fun part of NY. I know that times are tougher now, but, we can still afford to get a few things from Jacks.
I like Jacks. They have so many things there to look at. Its a wonderful variety store.
I really like Jacks place theyre quality of stuff is good especially for your pets thats why I go there for my pets
Awesome discount store. Tons of great bargains. Always something new to discover.
This place is huge one cant just walk in with anything specific in mind without curiously browsing about in amazement of the items that can be purchased here. Lots of options for just about anything. So glad this space is still holding up in the heart of NYC while so many have resorted to shutting down. Its pretty spacious but be aware lunch hours and afterwork Friday crowd will make you want to run right out as it is a favorable spot for budget minded new yorkers.
Good deals peaceful shopping
Great store for food, appliances, housewares, clothes, health and beauty products. Very well stocked and the prices are, awesome! Open 7 days a week! Locations in Midtown Manhattan, near Macys and Times Square!
The Jacks is great store. It used to be even greater few years back when the prices were so low. Now, they are more pricey but still its a good deal.
This Jack been here for years price from 99 cents up there are several floors and much to shop build goes from one side of street comes out next block so enjoy many things all year round special every day
Lots of great values if you shop carefully. Some items, especially certain staple food items may not be good value at all.12/20 Update I downgrade to 3 stars because they make you sign for a credit card purchase which should be touchless, especially given the coronavirus. They did not have hand sanitizer at the checkout, but at least they did at the front door, but you have to ask for it.Also, they do not offer paper bags for $.05 each. They only offer a more permanent bag at (as I remember) $.50 each. This is ridiculous not to offer cheap paper bags.
They ALWAYS HAVE the best grocery items at great prices. Got great butter, goat cheese, heart healthy cereals. Staff was very kind and helpful. Shopping here WAS a very pleasant delight.
I love seeing the shelves fully stocked, and theres always a wide range of items to suit ones interest.
Jacks shopping was good but when I got home I discovered one item I purchased wasnt in my bag. I called the number on my receipt, no one answered. I left my phone number and Im waiting for a response. I find it hard to believe Jack doesnt have anyone answering there phones. Check your bag before leaving the store.
Good store to find great deals. A friend took me here and I really liked what was in there. I got really good deal on bathroom accessories for my mom and just some very almost hard to find things youll be surprised to find here. Come to Jacks you will be happy you shopped here!
Got some amazing deals, i.e. Stoke Cold Brew bottled coffee wFor $1.29. And the store was nearly empty. Definitely go midday on a weekday.
USE CAUTION if shopping here. I was in Jacks and brought three Fiber One boxes to the register. Each of the boxes had a Jacks green price sticker on it of $1.99. The cashier held up a box and asked another employee Are these $1.99 or $2.99? She then looked at me and said they were each $2.99 and did I still want them? I said they were $1.99 and pointed to the sticker. She then said ok. If I hadnt been paying attention, I think I would have been ripped off by this game they play here. Watch the prices here - some items are overpriced and you can get a much better price at walmart.com. See how much you are paying per ounce compared to how much you are paying per ounce elsewhere. You might be paying MORE PER OUNCE of whatever you are buying at Jacks.
So... If you dont know Jacks you dont know NYC.
I love Jacks!!! This is my go to store for everything. Price wise this store cant be beat on a lot of things especially the food items. You can get everything here, clothes, food, electronics, stuff for cleaning the house, dishes, things for personal hygiene. They have a wonderful selection for everything which I absolutely love. I highly recommend this place def one of my faves!
It is full off crazy stuff and the price is crazy and they dont have much american made good s an the staff is not knowledgeable about anything at all an the merchandise is scattered all over the place and employee s ar to busy taking in stead of assist the coustmers
Great stuff and cheap. Get your Souvenir here!
Jacks may be the best remainders / leftovers / discount store in New York. Prices are outstanding. You find a wide variety of kitchen goods, refrigerated and packaged food, cleaning supplies, greeting cards, clothing, school and office supplies, and even electronics. This is a bargain experience. The downside is slow checkout lines.
The prices are just right. If youre visiting from other parts of the country or world, its the best place to buy souvenirs and other little things you might need during your stay in NYC.My niece makes me go to Jacks, all the way from Florida, just to get her some shower curtains -- theyre great! -- and various expensive spices -- really cheap, but good for baking.
The majority of employees were courteous & polite. However, I was very disappointed when I finally got to the cashier after waiting on the long line. I had a shopping cart full of items & groceries & before I preceded to put them on the counter, I asked if they take EBT & was told by the cashier NO.This is very frustrating in times like this during the pandemic. Since loosing jobs many people have had no choice but to apply for Public Assistance. Your cooperation should consider accepting EBT again.
Love this.store, wonderful items sold. at good prices
I bought set of plates & silverwares as part of my collection which are hard to find items due to quality! Furthermore, used to buy here my chocolates made from Europe but no stocked for now! Its Pandemic season but I my brands & products here are in affordable prices knowing its in Manhattan!This branch near Penn Station has more sections of products than the one near New York Times & Port Authority.
Its nothing like it used to be..99cents and up. Only 2 floors, dis punts on food is good ..but not much of a selection upstairs for curtains towels etc.
Its crowded, 2 floors of miscellaneous stuff, mostly at very good discount prices. I head there for cleaning products, paper party goods, toiletries/cosmetics and the occasional astounding find. Check the sell-by dates if you are shopping for refrigerated or frozen food. Best buy ever: Levenger legal pads for 99 cents each, a few years ago.
They still have good prices but a lot of the food items have gone up just as much as a supermarket. The good thing they are excepting EBT You can actually get some better deals at some supermarket but there are some things that are good 👍,
First time there definitely had great prices they do not accept snap/ebt so I ended up buying the food with cash, the cashiers worked quickly and the store wasnt to crowded which I loved ♥️
They have great deals here, and they literally have everything. You can also get rare finds here like work shirts for 4.99 and fancy imported candy for 1.29. During holidays, is also a good place to get decorations. If you ever need anything, cone here first to get it for less.
Jacks is like a box of chocolates - off brand, waxy, foreign chocolates. You never know what you will find in this souk-like discount/closeout/overstock emporium. Well-known name brands turn up alongside generic goods labeled in Turkish. Frozen foods, canned goods, kitchenware, electronics, tools, cosmetics, and just about anything you can think of are on offer for cheap. One star off for bovine meandering crowds and extremely disorganized queues at checkout. Dont try to shop here unless your time and patience meters are maxed.
Love the easy store layout. Terrific spot to find home, snacks and seasonal gifts
I love Jacks you never know what you will find. Sometimes they have Essie polish and other great products. I always buy tea here too because they have a great selection much more affordable than grocery stores. Always crowded so plan for the time.
One of the last true NY bargains. Their prices have gone up lately, but still great plus youll always find stuff youd been meaning to buy but forgetting.
Okay priced items. Every week different items. The only 99 cent store close to 34th street
Plenty of things are sold cheap here, though there is a good chance that the desired item you seek may not be there. Definitely a lot of good sales going about here and there. If youre not worried about owning the BRAND items, these place may have something to offer to you.
Nt bad as well ..try it gonna love it
One of the biggest 99cent stores around. Nice selection of items, new stuff can be in stock anytime and they can be out for a while as well. Prices are great just remember it is a 99cent store, and you get what you pay for!
While for a long time it was one of the best kept secrets of midtown, the quality of the alimentary products have suffered and the staff has gotten bloated and full of itself. Beside they have gotten so expensive that one is a better off stopping at any supermarket. They have become inebriated by their success and the rarities one used to find have have become rarer. Still recommend it but be ready to be disappointed or surprised, depending on your luck that day.
I.love to go shopping there. I can find most of all I need for my apartment living.
When broke or in doubt, Jacks the spot. They have anything from coaching products to food to gifts and wrapping needs to school supplies to household decoration items. In the dead of NYC winter, its a great spot to replace a lost glove or need scarf or hat!
Jacks on 34th Street is great for one stop shopping. You can basically find anything you need at an affordable price. The ails provide sufficient space for social distancing but not enough for a wheelchair as long as you follow the visual guides on the ground and listen to the security Guards posted throughout the store. This location does feature an escilator but no elevator. On the second floor youll find home Decor appliances and the like. On the first floor youll find appetizers scholastics and 99 cent flip flops as well as hygiene products. Last week I found chocolate covered pretzels for 99 cents and discovered a very cool alternative to plastic Bags for the Jacks reusable 25 cent bag. Really not a plastic bag I promise.
Prices of slowly been creeping up. But you can still get some great deals on things. Wide selection.
It has decent items for good prices. I came here looking for some cheap snacks since I am visiting on vacation and didnt want to spend regular price on larger items that I couldnt take back with me. It accomplished what I was there for.
Company been around over a half century. Prices have crept up ever so slightly. Three level Dollar Store Target theme. Worth frequent trips because of the constantly changing plethora of bargains, quite a few brand names.2-3 different locations.
Jacks 99 cent store has always been a favorite for me in mid town Manhattan...the variety of household items, crockery, cosmetics, food at an unbeatable price is just amazing!...I call it a discount department store....full of surprises from wedding decorations, gourmet food, exotic foreign foods, good quality crockery, household items, clothing, electronics, gadgets, tools, cosmetics...you could decorate a new home on a budget with the help of Jacks 99 cent store !!!
Can find anything u want food households items decorations
Love the place.great prices.afordable and they have everything.only that they do not accept EBT.
Theyve started jacking up all the prices, and nearly everything above the first floor is either overpriced or extremely shoddily made, but this place is STILL the most reliable stop for overstock-type deals on everything from cereal to juice to chopped meat to pasta to spices to snacks. Always worth a visit if youre in the neighborhood.
LOVE, Love their selections and prices!Not NYC prices but more like a bargain outlet 🤗
Has a variety of items to choose from and the prices are decent however there is major need for improvement with customer service. During my last visit, the cashier allowed lotto players to skip the line and be served before regular shoppers. My encounter with another cashier during a separate visit was rude and snappy because of questioning of a price.
This is my favorite store i love to shop at Jacks. They have great things and awesome prices you can fine anything ever nice gifts for a loved one. Thank you Jacks
The food was not worth all that..Id rather eat at 5 Guys or McDonalds..Had to send burger back twice because they forgot to put the avocados on it and bacon..They had the nerve to put my bacon and send it to me in a bag for me to put on it..The only reason they got a 2 is because the manager gave me a refund because of the inconvenience
A wonderful place to buy simple items like cookies, grocery, perfumes, cooking pots, decoration items, snacks. It is a huge store where we can find variety of products. I found brown shoe Polish for just a dollar here which I could not find anywhere. So it is a place where everyone has to check out. Hopefully you will find almost anything you are looking for. Go peep into the store and one more good news, its right close to the Penn Station. So easily accessible. I love this place❤
What a great store! incredible variety & great quality.. from food to clothing, pots and pans & more.. I cant pass Jacks and not go in.. theres always something there that youll remember you needed.. and the women at the registers are always Pleasant..
This place is a gem, great selection, awesome, friendly staff, excellent prices!
Great service and bargain items!
Well, I just moved here. I didnt really shop shop. I just was looking for a specific floor polish that I needed. I couldnt find it at Target. But I found it here.😃 Maybe next time.
Have a plan or budget because a person just cant walk in here without anything specific in mind, curiously will be your downfall due to the browsing about in amazement of the items that can be purchased here. Lots of options for just about anything. It is a favorable spot for thus budget minded New Yorker.
You can find good deals and bargains but be careful with the quality.
Selection was few in the items that I was looking for. I traveled from new Jersey just to shop there. Disappointed this time but still one of my favorite stores
The motto of this store should be - Characters welcome. If you are willing to brave the few oddballs, there are many deals to be found here. They have a wide array of product including household goods, food [check expiration date], furniture, office supplies and beauty products. Every time I visit this discount haven I always walk out with a bag of goodies. Do be warned, dont expect top grade quality on some of the stuff -- as the saying goes, you get what you pay for.
Second time there and also last time. I was waiting to checkout at the counter. People from nowhere cut the line all the time. Even the cashier said, next on the line, then looked at me, asked me to go to her, then one old lady cut the line and put all merchandises in front of that cashier. And that cashier did nothing. I left immediately and went to Target ( I found that Jacks because of the Target store on 34th st). Im glad I left, because the products I wanted at Target were cheaper.
So far workers are pretty good and the store has good merchandise with decent prices
Most Security are friendly and professional. Most of employees are knowledgeable about products and prices. Very good variety of foods and drinks. Special items and good deals every week.
Not as crowded as before Covid-19 hit but still busy. Theyve closed off half of the second floor. Their Loss Prevention is very noticeable.
Very low priced items , love their selections
I will always love a detailed discount store. Been shopping here since 1992.
I could spend hours in here . the prices are great . I got food , a cheap umbrella (because it started raining )and candles for my home .they had a security at the line to keep order and assist with quicker check out .
This place used to be one of my favorite spots in Manhattan. It is no longer since prices have drastically gone up. No longer a discount place

2022-04-16Its not easy to find affordable prices for lots of consumer goods when in Manhattan, and for over a decade now Jacks has made shopping a much better experience for me. It really helps me get the most bang for the buck. This place would be a blessing wherever it was, with their great deals. The fact that it is in NYC makes it an even bigger blessing for hardworking senior citizens like myself, and I am sure many others.

2021-09-04It’s a matter of going to 34th Street and stopping there to see what you can find. They sell just about everything: clothing, household goods and cleaning supplies, food, candy, beverages, make up and so much more. I like to go there to buy chocolates. There’s so much going on. The customer service reps are kind and helpful.

2022-02-07Very helpful courteous and even let me put my bike in there while I search for products that were very helpful to me and my personal products for personal use at a affordable price workers are also very courteous and welcoming I am respectful and as long as you come in a respectful manner you will be treated with respect. in this Jack store affordable prices although over the years they have maybe come up maybe a dollar up on certain products but anything that Ive needed to find I am fine. which is products for domestic use shampoos conditioner soap also they also accept if you have a helpful card they accept thats okay thank you and I have had a lovely experience within this Jack store within a block away from 34th Street thank you

2022-02-14Clean and organized. Prices are certain items like food was a bit high. I have a suggestion that Jacks remove the 99 cent from their sign. It was easy to navigate through the store. I shopped downstairs, but they do have another floor upstairs. I think 2. If you need something you will probably find it at Jacks.

2022-05-19Alot of frozen food to pick from to beauty products and 99 cents greeting cards. They have cheap priced clothing and a bit pricey Backpacks 30 to 60 dollars range. You cant go upstairs the elevator was blocked off.

2021-04-22Jax is a discount store they have and midtown Manhattan its nice but everything they have is like food toiletries very cheap prices also two floors were upstairs has home items anything you need for the house also clothing and I have escalators going up and down I didnt notice any at elevators for people with wheelchairs then when youre downstairs they have freezer compartments for frozen food and they have dry food they have Toys birthday things many different items dog stuff cat food it has a lot of things its a very overwhelming at first but once you go there a couple times then you get used to how theyre set up is they are very long lines inside and they have the plexiglass again when you get up to the cashiers so you dont touch the no touching with the cashier and then the only thing I dont like is how they close the upstairs at a certain time but the employee certain ones are very rude so other than that the place is a good place to go because midtown Manhattan doesnt have any really discount stores that I know of that is as cheap as Jacks

2022-01-10A long time favorite store in midtown. They always have good prices and unique finds. I didnt know the store hours so I went online for that information. Shortly after arriving in the store they announced the store was closing in the next 10 minutes. I was shocked. I told them the information online said something different. However, I dont think the online information will be updated.Call the store for accurate store hours before you go there.

2022-01-06Jacks was unexpectedly nice. The most reasonable prices I have seen on things. You can get Anything from socks & underwear, hair & cleaning prices, bread to microwave -able meals. I will definitely be going back before leaving New York City.
