We proceeded back to the shoe area and ran into Connor. He was so knowledgeable about shoes and very friendly and helpful. He really elevated our experience! We walked out with two pairs of shoes. Also, the young gal working the counter was very sweet. I always have loved Big 5 because they typically have knowledge people in their shoe department.

Purchase process was fast and easy without endless standing in line. Prices are very competitive - and if you need ammo, there is no better selection anywhere.

Comedy, employee's could care less, been eyeing a Glock for a couple of weeks at this place,…read moredecided today i was gonna "pull the trigger" went AJI stood in front of the counter for like ten minutes and no one said a word to me, less than a foot away and if the guy would have looked up from his laptop he would have sold a Glock, lol, east valley tactical had one, ha ! I would expect nothing less than a smart ass condescending remark, any thing but customer service and you think you got 124 visits, thats the best

I have been into this Shoppers Supply many, many times over the years. I love that it is a family…read moreowned business. "In 1966, a Mr. George Schmidt opened a small business called Shoppers Supply. Starting out as a fleet and farm operation in the rural town of Spencer, Iowa, over the years it has blossomed into a multi-store retailing business. Even today, Shoppers Supply continues to be a family-owned and operated retailer, run by three consecutive generations of the Schmidt family." They are involved in the community and also support local animal rescues and local businesses by allowing them to set up in front of the store/in the parking lot. The service has always been satisfactory and typically quick. They also offer complementary fresh popped popcorn which I think is such a nice touch. I personally come here to buy food for my flock (chickens and ducks) and the peach rings.. lol! I always forget to snag pictures but they have lots of items within their inventory. Within the store, they have tools, clothing/shoes, livestock feed/items, guns, fishing items (including bait/live worms), dog items, uhaul services, and so much more. They have live chicks (seasonally) as well which I have to shield my eyes from looking at.... :). Lately they have typically been priced at $5.99 a chick (or more depending on breed). They have had some really awesome breeds in the past. I do feel the value is comparable to other feed stores within the area throughout the years. The prices have raised in the last year so I haven't done a comparison price for price recently. For poultry feed specifically, they offer Country Companion (CC), Nutrena, Purina, Kruse's Perfection and organic brands (this list is not inclusive of all items just the ones I remember). The typical items I purchase are below which I had the price available for as of February 2024: 50# CC scratch is $17.49 a bag 50# CC 16% layer pellets $19.99 a bag 40# Kruse's Perfection super 9 superior scratch $22.99 Peach rings $2.99 per 7 Oz bag

I had to stand in line for FORTY FREAKING MINUTES while those guys at the counter jabberred and jabberred like best buddies having a beer about the merits of this weapon or that one. I have SERIOUS back issues and it was shear freaking misery for me to do this. I told the guy who finally waited on me, "Hey, man. I know you don't run this place, but my wait to buy these primers was just NOT ACCEPTABLE. Perhaps you ought to have two lines? One for lookie lous and one for people who actually want to BUY SOMETHING?" I made a point of being calm and nice, even though my back was afire. I told him politely that they would NEVER see my face again at that counter. I'd rather pay the UPS hazard fee than stand in line for 45 minutes. That's a NO BRAINER. The guys who run that place HAVE NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS' EXPERIENCES. Not. Ever. That's why they s**k.

Ben's Sporting Goods was a great shopping experience. I was looking for my first big bore pistol…read moreand I found it here. I purchased a S&W M&P .45 Police trade in and I couldn't be happier. Ben gave me a great price and answered all my questions in a timely and informative manner. The shipping was lightening fast. When I received the gun from my FFL dealer, they were surprised by how good the condition it was in. It was everything as advertised, it was very clean, had all the paperwork, all the magazines, night sights, all the grips and it came in the S&W blue hard case. I haven't gotten the chance to take it to the range yet but I'm confident it will function fine. It's a nice experience to deal with a small but attentive shop to purchase fire arms. I will come back once my credit card cools off.

You'll probably end up buying more than what you plan on, so be ready. This location boasts 2 floors, with everything from kayaks to baseball bats and shoes for every sport to clothing for the kiddos. They carry major brand names such as Yeti, Hydroflask, Nike, Puma, etc. I was pleasantly surprised to also find ratchet tie downs for pick up trucks in the kayak/SUP section. They had a great sale going on before the 4th. I was able to snag my life vest for just $20! I won't be using it too much, but you gotta be safe no matter what! I was browsing around and trying on different brands when an employee asked if I needed any help. I politely declined. I did drop a star due to the fact that when I checked out, there was only one register open. There were about 3 of us behind the person who was paying. Eventually, another register opened up so I was out and about in a few minutes. I would have also liked to see scanners throughout the store to check prices. There is an abundance of parking in the lot outside. Employees are friendly and they offer a military discount when you show your valid I.D. I would recommend coming in for all of your sporting good needs!

Swimmers... if you are "serious" about your craft, then East Valley Sports may have what you need…read more I'm not gonna lie, prices are higher than most major retailers, but they offer some of those specific/unique swim-related items that big brand stores typically don't carry. They do have Grab Bag bins around the store with gear that is 40-50% off the MSRP (which means you know it's high already), so that can help. As a swim coach for a high school team, they did a great job with our order, and communication about our orders was clear. It is located in the "far" east valley, but easily accessible.
