While I was waiting for my eldest daughter, I decided to drive to Victor Valley Town Center to see…read morewhat businesses they have. I drive by here most of the time, but have never drove into it until recently. It is quite a huge center. Just to name a handful of the businesses that are still here... see below. I say still here because some of the shops are permanently closed unfortunately. I didn't get a chance to offer my patronage and support to any of the businesses during my recent visit, but I would like to return to check out Tea Life and Tutti Frutti. I love boba drinks and ice cream! Vons Carl's Jr Ross Petco Taco Bell Wing Stop Waba Grill Chinese Food Sally Tea Life Great Clips Tutti Frutti

Swapmeet? Yikes, now I love me a good deal, love fleamarkets, swapmeets, vintage, kitsch, all that,…read morebut none of that can be found here. Very seedy, creepy even, from the smell to the people to the crap they offer. It seems like there is something else going on here. It's never full which is no wonder, I was in and out of there pretty fast, not inviting to casually browse at all.

I would rather go down the hill. The swapmeet's up here are like the malls. Prices are ridiculous…read more They don't have a great selection either.

Waited 10 minutes before opening (why are stores opening at 11 on weekends during the holidays?)…read more I'm assuming the "manager" was inside. One of the employees pulled up next to me, parked right in front, which should be for customers but whatever. Once the doors were opened I walked around and basically helped myself. Neither employee asked if I needed assistance. I was the only customer in the store. I gave it 2 stars because it was organized and clean. But I won't bother waisting my time there again. I'm tired of the amount of stores I try to patronize (instead of ordering online) and getting ZERO customer service.

Remember when you wanted and needed the latest fashion trends and you knew you could find it at…read moreFashion 21? So you and your girlfriends hopped on the city bus to take you to the mall or some street out in LA just to get there. Remember...and it was just a girl store. And, you were, like...under 21 years old? 'emember? Well Rue21 is that "new" spot. Now, upon walking in, I felt my aura of old age try to escape me as the trendy hip-hop music and the Twilight display easily made me feel less, well, hip. But, I thought this place was cute and definitely ready to dress the under-21 hipsters (or, I guess the under 25) crowd...not that age really has a type of look, but that's what I'm seeing. I think it brings a better environment to the groups of kids who like this sort of stuff. It reminds me of Fashion 21, but caters more to the more "hipster" type crowd. Majority for the girl crowd, guys can shop here too, as the other half of the store is for the trendy, skinny jeans, wearin' type of guy. Oh, and there were these funky sunglasses with plaid print on the lenses. How can a kid see out of those? *shrugs* So, I'm going to assume if you can't find it at Fashion 21, you'll find it...whatever "it" may be...at Rue21. At least I found a place I can bring my niece and nephew to shop and shut up.

We were there on a Friday night before closing. As we were trying to check out and purchase our…read moreitems, we had an issue with the debit card we were trying to use. The clerk named D*z became visibly irritated and short with us. Instead of trying to help us with our card, she began telling her coworker who had walked over, an African American middle aged woman with no name tag on, that "this always happens" (we presumed she was talking about issues with customers trying to check out right before closing) but the two of them engaged in a very passive aggressive conversation in front of my sister and me about us while we were standing there. Our items were already bagged in our cart, but since we couldn't use the debit card we tried to use, I told D*z that I would only be purchasing some of the items, and to cancel that initial transaction. She told her coworker that the stuff we had left in the cart were "go backs" and the woman huffed loudly while grabbing the 2 paper bags and flipping all of the contents out into the cart, ripping the bags and damaging the food products in the process. She and D*z became so aggressive in that moment. I told D*z I would still be buying the bag of items I put back on the conveyor belt. She took the first two items out of the bag and threw them (literally chucked them) at the end of the belt for bagging after scanning them, at which point my sister said, "Let's go." I have been in some shady Walmarts in my day but never have felt as unsafe with employees as I did that night. Management needs to focus on training staff to engage with the public. And if people don't have the patience to engage with others, then they should not be put on register. I will drive all the way over to the Walmart on Main in Hesperia instead of ever going back to the AV location, (which is a cluttered dump anyway, comparatively) and has questionable employees. Most of whom have their name tags on backward.

I had recently participated in a toy drive for underprivileged children and/or young adults in our…read morelocal communities. I sponsored 8 young adults between the ages of 17-20. Some of the gift ideas were mostly gift cards so here I am at Target to see what are available. Wall of gift cards has lots of options from sit down restaurants to fast food restaurants to shopping to movie theaters to Google Play to Play Station to Target and more. Please note there are NO Amazon gift cards available. Why would there be, right? That's okay. I ended up getting these gift cards... 4 $25 Target, 3 $25 AMC, 1 $25 Play Station, 9 $10 Subway, and 8 $10 Starbucks. Subway comes in 1 pack with 3 $10 so I got 3 packs. Starbucks come in 1 pack with 4 $10 so I got 2 packs. Total came out to be $370.00 which averages out to be $45 per young adult (I gave the extra $10 Subway to my daughter). Hope the shopping/movie and food/drink treat brings the young adults some good cheer this holiday season. Check-out was easy. Staff was friendly. Btw, Target no longer has the red gift envelopes for their gift cards. Thank you Target for your Gift Cards wall! Grateful for the massive options.

Me and my daughter are collectors of Pokemon and there's a couple other families that collect…read morePokemon. We know that there are scalpers among us, but we don't really care. We waited two nights and two different routes and the white heavy set manager at the target comes out and tells everybody oh we don't have no Pokemon Guys, even though they have it in the back and one of the workers told me that they have it so they're literally not wanting to sell us Pokemon when we're trying to collect, we rip everything to look on your kids face when the manager plays with them like that pretty sad. Hope she gets fired from her job. No the other manager in the morning she's an African-American lady very nice. Puts all the product out in the morning. Everybody gets in the orderly line fashion but the other heavyset white lady Manager. She's really mean and very disrespectful.

We finally have a Daiso in the High Desert. Yay! It's located in the Jess Ranch Marketplace in…read moreApple Valley. Very bright and clean store. Organized and well stocked shelves. Aisles could be wider. Variety of merchandises sold here from kitchen products to beauty supplies, essentials, stationery, storage, DIY supplies, snacks, drinks, noodles, miso, sauces, soups, etc. Every time I enter into a Daiso, it brings me joy because I know I'll have a fun shopping experience surrounded by unique and interesting products at an extraordinary value. Thank you Daiso! They do have lots of cute knick knacks. I couldn't help myself... I ended up picking up some goodies to-go. It never fails LOL. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Self check-out and counter check-out are both available. Come on by and support your neighborhood High Desert Daiso!

New location!!! I can't believe there's a DAISO in the High Desert! It's located in between…read moreKirkland's Home and Winco storefronts. It's in the same shopping center as PetSmart. Great location, lots of popular and familiar stores nearby. The cashier greeted us upon entry. The store just opened about a month ago. It's still very clean and the employees were working hard to keep the shelves stocked with new inventory. The aisles were overflowing with people as many peered at household items, to snacks. Kids looked at Japanese candy and talked about which one they wanted. It was a nice outing for a Saturday. I'm not sure if everyday is like this or if it was busier than usual because it's the weekend. The value of the products is so good that's definitely a reason for customers like myself to continue visiting. So glad to see lots of snacks, drinks, even udon noodles, miso, sauces, soups and more. Looking forward to our next visit.
