Located right on East 2nd, Discount Plus is a liquidation store that sells close out items,…read morereturned items from other chains, food products close to expiration, and items whose packaging is slightly damaged but the product is just fine. Clothing is brand new, never worn, and ranges from t-shirts to jackets to sweatpants to sweaters and accessories. You never know what you will find as product is always moving. Same with food items. Pasta, cookies, cereal, canned veggies and fruit, candy, bread, coffee, seasonings, soda, bottle water, lots of snacks and more. They are close to expiration but most have a shelf life far past that date. Items are arranged neatly and easy to see and find. Lots of cleaning products, too. Many are the Awesome brand found at the Dollar stores but they also have the main brands like Clorox, Windex, Snuggle, etc. What brought me in was the rakes, shovels and yard tools. They had a large assortment and at much better prices than big box or local chains. Even some planters in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors for far less money than elsewhere. Like $5-10. You need to wander around as the store has aisles going both vertical and horizontal and pathways that lead to areas which I guess could be considered a "department" like the garden supplies. Those working here are always unpacking items, arranging product and keeping the store organized and clean. They are super friendly and helpful, too.

Had several questions in prices while strolling the aisles and assistance was always close by and offered with a smile. Like all if these stores, the fun is walking down every aisle to see what is there, never knowing what to expect. While many items are close to expiration, there were lots of fresh items as well. The produce looked fantastic, always a good sign! If in The Dalles, definitely worth a visit. Plenty of parking right out front and located in a strip mall with Rite Aid, a Dollar Tree, JoAnn Fabrics and The Goodwill. Even a drive through Starbucks in the lot.

Their prices here are the lowest when comparing to The Goodwill and St. Vinnie's, also in The Dalles. Plenty of parking. Friendly service.

Just to start with the most pressing issue, I can't possibly be the only one wondering if there's a…read moredead body hiding in one of the cars or trunks on the Super 8 side of the store. It smells SO AWFUL. If the stench is not coming from one of the cars parked along that side of the building, then it has to be coming from the building, itself. If there is not a dead body on the side of the Fred Meyer store, then they have some kind of seriously disgusting issue with rot or mold that literally smells like a dead body. There is NO WAY the employees haven't noticed. The checker assistants have to go over there to collect carts. I'm not exaggerating when I say it smells like something is dead over there. Someone needs to figure out where that smell is coming from. It's a health hazard on the basis of how bad it smells alone, but nothing smells that bad without there being a biological cause. It smells bad enough to merit three paragraphs. If it is an employee's car, this is one of those cases where they need to be written up for disgustingly unacceptable hygiene. There is no acceptable excuse for any area of a grocery store to smell like that. My second most pressing issue with this store would be the weights and measures. Is Weights and Measures like, not even a thing in Oregon? Because the sale tags at this Fred Meyer are wrong *more often than not*. They do a great job of putting tags up, but it doesn't seem to be anyone's job to take them down. I've been to this Fred Meyer a few dozen times, and it feels like I've caught at least one price error on every single visit. It's so bad that it almost feels intentional. You think you're getting low prices, and if you don't pay very close attention at the register, you might not even notice that such an incredibly high percentage of the sales tags are expired. I'm not saying this as someone who is angry with Fred Meyer. I still shop here. I've just stopped believing the sales tags. For example, a few days ago I was going to buy a bag of Nature's Path Peanut Butter granola, because it was marked down to $2.99. I even checked the tag to make sure it wasn't expired, and it wasn't. I actually like the chocolate flavor better, but it was $4 more. I specifically chose the peanut butter flavor because it was on sale. But even after I hit 'total,' the price was still $6.99. It's like the sales tag was just completely made up. Weights and Measures would have such a field day in this Fred Meyer store. I bet they could raise enough money from bin label error fines to pay for all kinds of community necessities. Third, the handicapped restroom in the women's room has a door that is impossible to lock, and it has been this way for at least sixteen weeks. I'm kind of hoping they get sued by someone in a wheelchair, at this point. That's so messed up to let sixteen weeks go by without fixing that. In case management reads this and decides to address the issue, they need to make sure the door can be locked by someone without much physical strength. If the door needs to be lifted up to lock, then it is absolutely not accessible. How would a person in a wheelchair lift the whole entire door up to get the latch to fit? I wasn't even able to do it with all my strength, and I tried pretty hard. I haven't had any issues with product quality or employee attitudes, as a lot of other reviews mention. The employees I've come across have been friendly, if it can be considered friendly to not care that most of your customers are being deceived and overcharged. So, like I said, I would still shop here, but carefully. Keep in mind that most of the sales tags are mythological. And don't park on the Super 8 side of the store unless you're able to hold your breath on your way to/from your car.

When I did get a chance to ask about transferring, she replied she wasn't sure and to go to the Pick Up counter. By then, there were 2 more customers waiting in line at the pick-up window. I'm really disappointed in the staff there and will be transferring my prescriptions to another pharmacy as the Dalles location is unhelpful.

This cozy little bookstore is right on E 2nd in The Dalles and is a throwback to the friendly, neighborhood shops of yesteryear.

Books of all categories (fiction, mystery, cookbooks map, gardening, thrillers, travel, brewing, baking, sci-fi, classics, children's) with new releases and even some out of print items represented. So fun to peruse through the various titles as time disappears and I get lost in the magic of printed words and stories. In addition to the varied book collection, the shop has some beautiful puzzles, gorgeous journals, pens, unique stationary, lovely cards, gifts and some toys for children. The staff is passionate about books and it's evident. The gentleman working there the day that I stopped in was so friendly and helpful, offering suggestions on books after I told him my preferences for a summer read on a lazy day.
