There is an overwhelming amount of merchandise to select from. I needed hours in the store but only dropped in quickly out of curiosity. Great items here. The store could use some cleaning and more organization. Overall, great staff and I found a few items. I've visited twice and Kathy was there both times. Smiling and pleasant to customers. She even remembered me.

This location carries a lot of appliances and tools along with many other things. It's a little cluttered so you can do a lot of digging around to see what's there. Stock is always changing so if you see it today it may be gone tomorrow. On their Facebook page they post many items and you can ask them to hold it for the day giving you a chance to get it. You can also pay by phone.

It does go up and down depending on management. I asked a store employee why so many things unmarked. He said that Ollies does that. They can not put a price on everything. It is so buyers have to take it up to the register to get price. This is just stupid! The employees were great. The manager was right at me when I told the cashier about things not being priced. Nothing. Get a new manager! Not unless he has come in to this store and trying to get straight. I would have bought more items if they were marked!

Slightly unorganized, not the cleanest, they were having a 15% off everything sale, so I'm sure that didn't help with the order of the store?

Ollie's is a place that buys close-out items and sells them cheaply. I like to go here to find…read morebooks for a steal. But I cannot resist walking around and seeing what they have in the store. There's always something I really really really need. Of course, I don't, but I tell myself I do because it's so fun to discover stuff. The store is packed with items and the aisles are very small because of it. But that's not a bad thing; it's a good thing. I have to admit; this is the only place like this that I enjoy shopping at. The last time I was here, I found some spray paint for a fraction of what it would cast in Home Depot or Lowes. Who knew I needed spray paint? Even I didn't know until I saw the bargain prices and "had" to have it! My wife doesn't like when I go here because I roam around and look at everything. Why yes, we did need a sushi roller, honey. Who doesn't need one? And guess what? Now we have one! It's a fun place. Go check it out.

Very disappointed with my experience. I purchased a rug in-store and was told I had seven days to…read morepick it up. Three days later, I called the store about 45 minutes before arriving to let them know I was on my way. When I arrived, I immediately saw the rug I had already purchased sitting in a basket. I mentioned that they had already brought my rug up, but an associate insisted it wasn't mine and called the manager to look for it in the back. While they searched, I showed them a photo of the rug and my receipt. They confirmed my purchase was in the system but still couldn't find it. I even walked to the back of the store to show the manager where the rug had been. By the time I returned to the front, the associate had sold my rug to another customer. The rug had been sold twice--even though I had already paid for it days earlier. The manager told me there was nothing they could do except issue a refund. While I got my money back, that did not make up for the wasted trip, the time I spent, or the frustration of having an item I had already purchased sold to someone else. This situation should never have happened. Better communication and inventory control are clearly needed. I expected much better customer service and would not recommend this store based on my experience.

I had been hoping to find some linens on sale for President's Day, but found much better bargains here at Ollie's. The store may look more like a warehouse than a shop, but don't let that put you off. Those shelves are stuffed with amazing bargains. Linens, clothes, housewares, cookware, grocery items (found a gallon-sized can of cashew nuts for $14.99!!!!), books - all at incredible deals. The selection of books was impressive, and so were the hiusewares. We found flats of canning jars for $6 less than at the local hardware store. Groceries are also clearance, but was pleased to find them well away from expiration dates, which is often not the case at discounts stores like Big Lots. The bath sheets are buttery soft, thick and cost less than a regular-sized towel from a department store. The brand (Fieldcrest) was of good quality as well. We found the drapery rods that were our original quest, by Better Homes & Gardens for $8 each. By contrast, Wal-Mart stocks the same brand of rods for $36 and upwards each. Customer Service was fast and easy. The checker told me I could get a discount if I signed up for their online club, which was MUCH appreciated since we spent $495! (THANK YOU!) Ollie's is GREAT, and we're already making lists for our next shop.

This is one of the the best discount stores I have ever seen, and I've been to a lot all over the world. Ollie's is a genuine, bonafide, real OUTLET, not a dollar store type place or one with "fake" items that are manufactured to sell wholesale. No, this is the real deal, a store that's packed with buyouts, overstocks, and closeouts and prices that are (almost always) fantastic steals. Think of it as a legit version of Big Lots. What sort of stuff did I find here? Espresso machines, household goods (cleaning products, appliances, cooking gadgets), food (ketchup, soup, sugar free candy), nice rugs, toys, luggage, electronics, garden hammocks, electric razors, basketballs, car jumper cables, dog beds...the list goes on and on. If you're looking for something, you may find it here -- and you'll get it for 70% or more off the retail price! This particular location has a phenomenal selection of books. Ollie's is a great place to stock up on gifts for literally anyone on your list. I wish I had an Ollie's near me in the Southwest, I'd probably go once a week. Heck, it may even be worth a plane ticket back to North Carolina just to shop here.
