We stopped here to get some fireworks for New Years, but since we have a toddler and a newborn, we…read moreonly wanted to get some small stuff to show our toddler. We didn't want to scare her to death! We got some of the black cat super snappers and then some sparklers. She absolutely loved both of them, and I have to give a HUGE shoutout to the staff here. They did not even charge us for any of the fireworks that we got - they just wanted our little girl to have a fun, memorable experience, and we are so very thankful for that. We will definitely be coming back here to get fireworks from them next time.

Love that the staff is taking precautions and wearing masks. Face masks is required to enter and…read morethere is a limited capacity. If you're looking for face masks and hand sanitizer without spending a arm and leg, your best bet is to come here. There's plenty of face masks and hand sanitizer to choose from and they even let me try on one to make sure it fits. They have more to offer which new merchandise is constantly being stocked. The employees are very friendly and I'll be coming back to purchase more masks since you can't never have too many lol.

I love to shop at one of the 5 or 6 Ollies as selections can change often and bargains can be…read moregreat. Owning Air BnBs, Ollies provides great shampoos and soaps like Dead Sea brand from Israel, or Pantene or even Head and Shoulders. Their towels, sheets and blankets are often great quality for a steal. Coffee pods and a large can of ground coffee are almost 30 to 50%?off normal price. Just check dates. This store in Trussville was not as big or quite as nice as the Galleria one but it was fine. You don't get Macy's or Nordstrum atmosphere at these prices! Join their army for free and get great discounts and special sale hours. We had one tonight from 4 to 7 pm with 25% off holiday & toys plus 15% off everything. Turns good deals into fabulous!

The products I mainly buy are chips, candy and washing detergent. What I also like is the fact that Ollie's always gets new products so it's never the same experience when shopping. Customer service is always great and I never had no issues with any of the products I bought. If you have to return anything, just make sure you have your receipt and don't open the item.

I needed some q- tips; this location is often extremely crowded for no reason. Maybe it's the…read moreconvenience factor. I think this store needs an update - all FD seem to be outdated inside and out . Nevertheless, it sure beats a trip to Walmart!

I have mixed feelings about this particular Family Dollar and that why I try to avoid coming here…read more A few times I've been here, I tend to get what I need and go since this isn't the most pleasant area to be lingering around at especially during the school year since high schoolers see this as a place to hang around at before and after school. Most of the workers are young adults and it just depend on the individual if they feel like provide you with customers service. I can say the one time I came here looking for shower rods, it was an older employee that actually took the time to walk me to the area they were located at, but that one customer service doesn't change anything on how I feel about the store.

I was last here 2 years ago. Unfortunately, not much has changed. The inventory is lacking. Just…read moreappears to just be a bunch of "stuff. On a positive note, the staff is really nice! I was looking for some vintage Alabama gear which is what prompted this visit. I didn't see anything. I still looked around but nothing caught my eye. Pricing seems comparable to other thrift stores in the area.

Had such high hopes for this thrift store. We go to thrift stores all the time, we love them, and…read morewe have heard good things about this one so decided to stop in and check out what all the buzz was about. I never like to write a bad review, but i always am a honest yelper. So for starters, the store has no atmosphere, all of the merchandise was, to say the least, not organized at all. And the merchandise they had was junk. Like i said we only buy most things from the thrift, so for us to say this one is bad, that's saying something. I would say maybe stop in and look around if your near it, but don't drive far to come to it for sure.

I have only one problem with this thrift store: They put they're pricing stickers inside the books…read moreand it drives me nuts! I love to find board books for my toddler and they put them inside, right in the middle of the page and several books have been destroyed because of them. I would just leave the sticker on if they would put the sticker on the back of the book, on the outside... Even when I successfully get a sticker off without damaging the book the stickers they use are very tacky and leave a large amount of residue behind. Something has got to give here, I would go with better sticker placement. Or like other thrift stores mark the book with a crayon on a slick surface and it'll wipe off later. Otherwise this is the best thrift store I have ever been to... a few years ago I wouldn't go in it. It was dirty, smelly and everything looked like it was plucked from the dump. They've really cleaned the place up and they quality of the items is so much better. Definitely would advise anyone to go and check it out, plenty of treasures to be found!

I researched America's Thrift Store recently. They are a for-profit organization and only 3.5% of…read moretheir online and in store profits go to non profit. So when you see those signs, they are falsely presenting that they support non profits but 96.% earned off of your donations goes to paychecks for executives. In addition they run an eBay page on YOUR donated items. Not only are their price markups outrageous in the store, they are based on current marketability from eBay. Don't donate to thrift store causes unless you like directly funding corporate organizations rather than non profit activities. Always check that organization to ensure they are a non profit.

No items that I wanted had prices listed on the shelves or on the items. The line was extremely long with no line being opened to remedy the situation.

I asked about that when purchasing so I wasn't surprised. The clerk was complimentary so thanks to her the transaction went well. The place is well organized and has a lot of as seen on tv items. Be sure you want something there before buying it because you can not get your money back and you may have to get something just to get your money's worth on the transaction. Also I was told before the purchase that I could not try the product to make sure it worked. That would have prevented a return.

If you're ever wondering how you can purchase those As Seen On TV items without having to pay the…read moreextra cost for shipping and handling? Your best bet is to come here and hopefully, they might have the item you're looking for that you saw on tv. They also have a good amount of tools for the tools lover for your family and friends, but I didn't bother to check the prices on them. I would suggest doing some research on the items you want and who knows, you could be saving money by doing it like that. The reason for the two star is the employee that behind the counter didn't not once acknowledge us or ask if we needed any help and the funny thing is that the place isn't even that big which mean you don't have a choice but to interact with your customers.
