I thrift quite a bit... but this ain't it. I've never seen a store thrift or otherwise as…read moredisorganized as this one. If you've ever watched A&E's Hoarders that is what this place is... it is a dumpster of of closed unknown merchandise, you have to get a worker to see what's in every box, that's a task in itself. On top of that the bigger furniture pieces like consoles, lawnmowers, lawn furniture... the owner is charging more than it would be at a Marshall's or TJ Maxx... $300 for a lawnmower, $350 for a console (just check out FB Marketplace). Why they aren't opening the boxes as they come in and categorizing which table they'd belong is beyond my understanding. I also don't understand why there isn't prices on the furniture, seems as if they are haggling, giving different prices to different ppl. Needless to say I won't be back. Don't make the hike to check this place out I'm sure you'll pass better stores.

Love this store. So many great treasures at super prices! The staff is great and super helpful!read more

I have to admit, I judged Ollie's before I ever walked through the front door…read more When I hear "closeout" or "bargain" store, my mind immediately goes to digging through disorganized mountains of who-knows-what, wondering if I'll find a bargain or just leave needing a tetanus booster. So I walked in expecting one thing...and left wondering why I hadn't shopped here years ago. The store was clean, organized, and packed with recognizable name brands at prices that honestly made me do a double take. Every aisle seemed to have another great find, and instead of feeling like I was on an episode of Storage Wars, I actually enjoyed browsing. The employees were genuinely friendly, smiled, and seemed happy to help. That alone sets Ollie's apart from a lot of retailers these days. And I have to give a shout-out to whoever curates the music. Instead of the usual elevator soundtrack that makes you wonder if time has stopped, it actually made shopping enjoyable. Then I found out they have a 30-day return policy. That completely caught me off guard. I honestly can't remember the last bargain or closeout store I visited that confidently said, "If it doesn't work out, bring it back." Great prices are one thing, but standing behind what you sell says a lot about a company. The biggest surprise wasn't how much money I saved--it was how much confidence I had shopping there. Ollie's doesn't feel like a place that's just trying to move leftover inventory. It feels like a company that genuinely wants customers to come back. Needless to say, they earned a new customer. I can already tell this won't be my last trip.

I scored a 3-pack Dial brand soap for $2, one (1) ladle for $1, two (2) travel-size Aquafresh brand toothpastes for $1, and one (1) Colgate brand toothbrush for $1. BIAB, to me, is more than a retail outlet. It's literally a retail "dumpster." You will find apparel from Cos*co or from a designer brand; you will find Rice Krispies that are going to expire in a couple of months; you will a varieties of everyday essentials, such as shampoo, conditioner, body wash, nail polish remover, and detergent.

Our cheap finds in Bargains in A Box, hallowed be your prices, your warehouse come, your savings be done, on the Windy City, as the 10.25% sales tax wouldn't matter, Give us incredible deals to out-compete other retailers, and forgive our government for being incompetent, And lead us not into over-spending, but free us from places that charge too much for the same items.

I walked in expecting nothing, and walked out with 4 beautiful earthenware plates and bowls, 4 boxes of gourmet crackers and multiple jars of manzanilla olives, roasted red peppers, and pepperoncini for a party I was having that weekend...and yes, every item I bought was $1. There may be some items that are slightly more expensive, but I didn't come across them. I was particularly blown away by the gourmet food selection. I'm definitely going back to stock up on antipasti-type items like marinated mushrooms, artichokes, etc...There was also an extensive frozen foods section. I guess this is a chain; someone reviewed a store in Hobart, IN, and I believe there is a store in Chicago on Western Avenue, as well. There were brand name drugstore items like Band-Aids, Tylenol, Aleve, etc...as well as decent drugstore shampoos, soaps, household cleaners, etc... There is an extensive toy selection, too. The store is clean, well-lit, and incredibly organized. The staff is also really nice...not typical in my previous dollar store experiences. I haven't been able to find a website for this company, but if you google them you can find directories of stores around the country.This is a great place to shop; come with an open mind and an empty trunk!

Aurora Discounts is a good place for cheap crap. It seriously has some pretty amazing deals…read more Quality of products can be questionable but still has plenty of good stuff. Household items for cleaning or anything else. The prices are cheap for most things. Hispanic and Latino owned business. It mostly caters to this population that lives around here. There's lots of items in Spanish but most are in English too. Find cheap liters of pop for a buck. There's also snacks like big bags of nuts for a dollar or more. Cleaning supplies and other household goods can be found. These are mostly for cooking and kitchens. Credit cards are mostly accepted. It has surprisingly good stuff even though it's cheap. There's a small parking lot but it's shared with a bank so be careful to be in the right spot or you could be towed.

OUTLET Low Cost Store Positive; super low cost on all items and they have some good finds. Negatives: long lines Let's be realistic, if you are paying $1 for shoes , $1 for shirts , you can't expect too much. It's almost like Goodwill except everything is New. The shelves are not completely stocked, but they don't need to be; the prices will get those people in and those lines will stay long. It's not free but it's definitely charitable prices. Well done

I went back and got more a few days later. They also had these little small snack size bags of a pretzel snack that had a barbecue mustard flavor to it and those were so good. They're only $.25 a bag. I went back and got more of those as well but they don't last long once the items are cleared out they're gone. It's a clearance store.
