This used to be a great place to get produce for a good price, but the last few times I have visited the fruits and vegetables look like they were the ones HEB culled from their displays. Lots of mold and spoilage. Perhaps they should leave the produce to HEB and focus on their other lines of nonperishable goods. I do like the store for cleaning products and buckets. They also have a good spice section so you can replace your old ones affordably. Please be aware a lot of items are no longer 99 cents due to the current inflation we are suffering from. read more

99 Cents Only Stores - Over ripe bananas - Discount Store Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Here's a special review of this store that currently beats the prices of Dollar Tree, Dolar General, Family Dollar, etc. They truly have many items that go for $.9999. Many items have increased in price since the first time we visited this store, but there are still quite a few items at $.9999. The food and vegetables are reasonably priced and the selction is varied and pretty much covers the basic necessities. The people are eager to assist in any way they can. Also, if you download the App, the rewards are typically $3 off a $25 purchase. On a cople of occasion our totla was going to be around $22, so we added items to reach the $25 threshhold. It's like those last items are free! read more

This is a great place. I have all of my favorites here. The produce section is well stocked. I appreciate the unique items that show up in the aisles. Shay the manager is wonderful and very knowledgeable about the inventory of the store. I am always happy when she is around. I leave here with just what I need for a great price every time. read more

I always like going to the local 99 Cent Store and Dollar Stores around my area. After moving to San Antonio, I needed a few things for the move and didn't feel like going to other more expensive stores for a few cleaning supplies and mats. I found this location on Yelp and decided that it was around the area I would be running my errands. The location is fairly easy to find and they have decent parking. The inside is like other 99 Cent Stores that I've been to and was stocked with a lot of different items. The store was pretty organized and there wasn't any merchandise just laying around on the floor (unlike other stores I've visited). I will say that I was able to go around and find different things, and like most have pointed out, at different price points. I like going to the 99 Cent Store sometimes, as opposed to the Dollar Store, because they sometimes have better items. Yes, you'll find things that are more expensive than the 99 cent price tag, but some of their items are still cheaper than going to your normal grocery or department type stores. Some of those items are also a bit better than the things that you find at the Dollar Store. When I did go to this location I found that there were a couple of employees at the checkout lines and the lady that helped me was friendly. I did walk away from my shopping trip with more than I was expecting to buy and spent more time here than expected. I will be back at a different time to see what other items they have to offer. read more

False advertisement in my opinion...I mean if you're going to name a store, 'The 99 Cents Only Store,' shouldn't the products only cost $0.99. What a disappointment when I found products for $1.00-$20.00. Most of the products are cheaper than Dollar General's products and don't last. I'll stick to Target and get my money's worth and not be mislead. read more

99 Cents Only Stores - Discount Store Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

They call it the 99¢ Cents Only Store but they really charge 99.99¢. Anyway 99 Cents Only had their grand re-opening this past weekend. A year after they shut down in the same location. (What difference a year makes) It pretty much looks the same, but I did notice more brand names around in the different areas. I purchased some Items I usually get from a dollar store, toothpaste, candy, brake fluid, and Spam. There's a produce, and bread section which gives the 99 Cents Only Store more of a supermarket feel. The place reminds me of an old school Safeway my grandparents use to take me in BCS; that sold tee shirts and shoes. You know before the days of Mega Markets! I think the 99 Cents Only Store would work for me; If I could pick up a loaf of bread, and Spam faster than I could at My HEB across the street. I will have to wait and see 3 Stars for 99 Cents Only Stores. read more

I will stick with Dollar Tree where EVERYTHING is really a dollar. One good thing about this place is that you can get some fresh produce for 99 cents a pound. read more

This is my favorite location. It's not the closest one to me but I have no problem making the drive. It's very organized and they put items on clearance often. The prices are great but what keeps me coming to this location specifically is Jeff, the cashier. He is the absolute sweetest. He always has a smile and checks everyone out quickly. In all the years I have been shopping here I have never seen him in a bad mood, not once. I have seen him deal with the most frustrating of customers and remain completely calm, professional and courteous. I've even seen him step out to chase off possible car robbers. He is the definition of great customer service. They just don't make them like Jeff anymore! As long as he is there to wish me a good day, this location will have my business. read more

What in the world happened to this store? Seemingly overnight it went from a bright, clean store to a dark and dirty one. I love shopping here because I can get fresh bread items and pretty good looking produce, as well as frozen treats for the kids at half off or more what HEB or even Walmart charge. Suddenly they have put in new higher shelves and rearranged the produce section. Fine, except that they left marks on the floor from where the old shelves were, making the floors look nasty. I mean, really, is it so hard to get the cleaning crew to do a little extra scrubbing? They seem to have done something with the lighting or taped the windows as well, because it isn't as bright as it used to be, either. It really looks like the ghetto 99 cent store on Walzem that is so nasty my daughter calls it the "cockroach 99 cent store". I still shop here, but I look over things I buy a little closer because the whole place just seems gross now. What a shame! read more

Can't say enough horrible things about this location.... I've noticed a change in management recently and the way the store looks. Boxes in isles, flying things actually coming out of the produce section, rotten produce expired goods on shelves. The management is horrible, most of them are extremely rude. If you hate your job get a new one!! Also see a lot of new faces often which means it's probably not a good place to work either. Really sad, I've been a regular customer but since the management change it's done down hill. read more

Clean for a 99 cents store , only one cashier most days .a couple of stockers are less than pleasant though the ladies room is always in disarray with stalls out of service no hook to hang ur purse and no toilet seat or paper , just like an outhouse ! Other wise a great store . the produce is hit or miss though , some days great others bad read more

I've visited 3/5 99-cent only stores and this one is probably my favorite! I love the location it's in and how clean it is. I usually love going for the fruit and any brand name stuff that I can find but I feel this one is hit or miss. The other two stores seem to get more of the "good" stuff. For example, the Walzem store is always getting loads of brand name juices or cereal where as the Thousand Oaks store gets only a limited supply. I don't go to the other stores because of how disorganized they are but will occasionally go when I'm on the hunt for something specific. I love these stores and the fact you can get organic fruit for a low price or brand name snacks and chips or even eggs and milk for a great price. The only reason I don't give them 5 star is because some of the employees are not very friendly, I hate going to a store and being the one to say hello, how are you first. To the ones that are always friendly, Thank you for always offering a cart or reusable bags! You are awesome! read more

This store is weird. I moved here from out of state and missed my discount grocer, so I saw this place. It reminds me of a more organized dollar general. I go here occasionally however all of the food requires you to look at expiration dates. I go here for cheap snacks but other than that most of the other stuff is soso read more

I was in here (with my kids - ugh!) a couple of weeks before Halloween and found great costume accessories and party supplies. They also have name brand foods - a big plus for me because I desperately try to minimize stops when shopping with the kids! I honestly didn't realize the actual price other reviewers posted at 99.99cent but it was still a good deal for me. I walked out of there with 2 bags full of stuff for under $20! I'll definitely be back! read more

It's a very unorganized store. Has great cards, so I go for them. They need to clean up the isles, have some kind of organization.

I go here for disposable, seasonal, baby, and kitchen items. I work with kids so this is a decent place to purchase things like children's rewards stickers. read more

I may be a tightwad but I am not a cheapskate and, yes, there is a difference. I had been wanting to check out this 99 Cents Only Store since I saw it open a few months ago. I found some good deals on things like Fish Oil Capsules, large cans of Spaghettios (for my kiddos), cold medicine, and some other stuff. I finished up with 18 items. Sub total should have been $17.82. Most of the items I bought were either food, vitamins, or medicines, which are not taxable. I had 4 taxable items, which when I calculate it, comes to 33 cents tax bringing my supposed total to $18.15. Oh, but wait, one of the items was actually $1.59 (so much for "Only" part) and taxable. Add 60 cents to my previous subtotal & the added tax and what do you get? $18.79. Oh, but wait again! Since the register actually rings each item up at 99.99 cents (or $1). So much again for the 99 cents only. Recalculating! Now subtotal comes to $18.60 and the grand total to $18.97. I paid 82 cents more than it should have been. Now, I repeat, I am not a cheapskate. I just think that if it's advertised as 99 Cents Only, then they should charge only 99 cents. I still got the items that I bought for less than I would've paid at another store but lack of truth in advertising rather gawls me. read more
