It isn't a trip to LA without a stop at Daiso!…read more Okay, I'm exaggerating, but I did want to stop here, so we did. The sad thing is that it is no longer easy peasy to shop, where most everything is the same cheap price, with just a few rare outliers. On this trip it felt like the cheap price was the rarity and you had to figure out the price of the rest. Not the most leisurely activity. But I still came out with a few things to take up the crevices of my carry on.

I was a bit surprised to see this store still open, as it always looks fairly empty up front from…read morethe outside. I remember this location from back in the day was a movie theatre and then in the most recent years, a LA Fitness. I used to go to the gym here often and so it felt a little nostalgic walking in remembering when the gym got renovated. Now at Last Chance, it's been transformed into more of a giant warehouse of random things. Gone is the fresh paint and shiny gym mirrors and instead it's replaced with tables filled with random stuff. It is more like a giant garage sale and the whole place had a noticeable odor. The overall atmosphere also felt a bit uncomfortable for me personally due to the security presence. This spot wasn't the right fit for me, but for others they may have a different experience.

Review #877 2025-050…read more The Last Chance Store is a discount retailer that sells overstocked, returned, & discontinued merchandise from major retailers in bulk at deep discounts. If you enjoy spending time treasure-hunting to find bargains or the potential for designer/brand names, then this is the place to be. They acquire truckloads of goods from major retailers, including overstock, returns, & discontinued items, which may be opened, missing parts, &/or broken. You buy at your own risk because all sales are final, no exchanges or returns. Due to the ever changing inventory, each week is a unique opportunity to find deals with the best selections on Fridays... home goods, school supplies, electronics, clothing, books, etc. It's first-come, first-serve, & no holds bar in snagging that treasure. There's no rhyme or reason in the organization (it's severely lacking), so what you find one day in the bins may be totally different on the next (week) visit. Closed on Thursdays to restock, the items are supposedly all 1 price based on the shopping day with Friday being the most expensive, & Wednesday as the least expensive because it's the last day from the previous Thursday's inventory. Prices have gone up since opening 3 years ago except for Wednesday; starting at $10 (Saturday), $7, $5, $3, $2, $1 (Wednesday). 2025 Prices: Friday: $12 Saturday: $10 Sunday: $8 Monday: $6 Tuesday: $4 Wednesday: $1 I've been here a couple of times towards the end of the sales, & not everything is sold according to the sale day (e.g. Pokémon trading cards were stocked in the "VIP Section" were priced $10 instead of $1 on Wednesday). Items along the store's perimeter are also priced differently & usually higher than Friday's no matter the day of week. I've purchased some school supplies, hand soap, & other home essentials for $1 & $2. My husband has found name brand protein & granola bars, though I would be wary of edible items since it's unknown how they were stored. Luckily, my Wednesday visits weren't crazy crowded like the early days. Is the hype/hysteria over for bargain hunting? IDK ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ There's no customer service on the floor during my visits, other than a cashier by the exit. Can't say she was friendly, just rang up my items & handed me the receipt. I don't recall if there are shopping bags for purchase if you forgot to bring your own. It's not my thing. I may stop by every now & then, but I don't always leave with a purchase. Last Chance Store is aptly named for the treasure-hunting lovers... good luck!

I saw it driving one day, and decided to check them out…read more This place has EVERYTHING. It looks small from the outside, but it's big inside. They carry everything you need. Household goods, kitchenware, arts and crafts, school supplies, party supplies, hardware supplies, tools, food and snacks, cleaning products, etc. Although they have tons of items, there's a few things they need to correct here. Items that are not tagged can be tricky. The cashier can charge you at any price on the spot and you wouldn't know unless you ask. What looks like a dollar can be more. Inflation and tariffs are definitely hurting the pocket. You also can't go back inside once you've paid. If you bought something already and checked out, you can't go back inside unless you leave your items up front. Maybe they've had issues with theft before or miscommunications with items. The cashier was friendly however, she was nice about it. Just strange practices but I get it, it's a small business and people probably steal here. EDIT: Came back here again shortly after. Cashier Julie was not nice and needs to be more friendly. Different cashier than the first one. She's a F!l!p!no lady. Kind of snooty and arrogant. Didn't smile nor said hello. When I spoke to her in Tagalog, she acted like she didn't hear me and responded back in English. The other guys that stock here are nice however. We needed an empty box to put all our stuff in but he took it from us to bring it up to the front before we can use it. This small store is a bit strict.

I have been using the products more than three years now. They are strong & durable products. It will last for long time. I recommend that pet parents would like to shop at the Bargain Center. They have good quality, amazing price, durable products & looks nice too. I buy lots of pet supplies every week at this place because I can save money. Also I enjoy the staff who works at this store. They are so helpful to the customers & they are friendly people.

The good: I got some gorilla ties here for $4, cutting…read moreboards (3 pack of bamboo boards) for $9, and girl's socks for $6. The gorilla ties are cheaper than they are on Amazon. They had a lot of religious cross decorations and bedazzled things like sippers, wall art, and sculptures. Their kids section had fun toys and tons of slime options. The bad: Some of the aisles were narrow and just barely enough for the cart to fit. There were some cutting boards that were cracked. I feel like the clothes are out of style/cheaper quality. A lot of the shoes were stiff. The interesting: They had a lot of Mexican snacks in the check-out aisle area. Their kids clothes seem slightly smaller than average sizing.

The prices vary but start at a dollar. This place is big with 10 aisles or so. The shelves are packed neatly and organized. They even sell basmati rice, something I haven't seen. They sell plants, balloons, instant noodles, toilet paper, face masks, etc. The owners are really friends and will spark up a conversation the minute you enter. There is plenty of parking and is next to a couple of eateries. Shop local, support small businesses!
