It's fun to hunt for great finds…read more Another reviewer mentioned the exterior looking like a daycare and it made me laugh because we thought the outside looked... colorful... as well upon pulling up. The value at Ollie's is great. We didn't have a ton of time to shop but we nabbed an A&M garden flag for $6.99 and a big bag of Brownie Brittle for $5.99. (Now I will note that we have been "burned" by food at Ollie's in the past -not this particular location- when we bought some mint patties which were infested with bugs. So yes we are "nervous" buying food here but I think that if they are well packaged, that shouldn't normally be a problem.) Now for the service. Wow. Aimee was our cashier and was FABULOUS. She was so friendly and helpful. She got us signed up for Ollie's rewards and explained everything so thoroughly. I honestly don't know why we didn't sign up before. It's not like we shop here much but the points don't expire so we should have done it sooner. Thankfully this wonderful employee was able to get us signed up. Wasn't expecting such great service here. Outstanding.

This store has improved dramatically since management has read the reviews. Navasota TSC is another story. It is run by a bunch of young girls who know nothing about anything. It was hopeless trying to get my questions answered as they were too busy talking with one another and on their phones Any retail stores should ban phone use while working. It is ridiculous! I give the Navasota TSC store an F. College Station TSC, keep up your good work.

Their gift shop houses work from a handful of local artisans and is just the place to snag a meaningful gift that's anything but humdrum.

Here in the Gulf Coast, it's "NOW IMPERATIVE" that you plant ONLY IN THE FALL [OCT is ideal], and NOT IN THE SPRING. Reason is, that the past few years have had [and MAY continue to have] BRUTAL SPRINGS [meaning... July/August HEAT in April/May]. A tree planted in the Spring has absolutely no chance to develop a new root system capable to supporting that tree for the rest of a [potential] very HOT year. A tree planted in the FALL will have upwards to 5-6 months of cooler/cold weather to grow a root system. Yes!! Trees continue to grow their roots even if they've dropped all their leaves. Notice that that 1 star review was made in May of '22; that was not the fault of BVTree Farm. That was the 1st year of high heat in Spring. Who Knew!! Times [weather] have changed, and we need to change as well. By the way, this is just my opinion, and I do not represent, and/or am I compensated by BVTree farm. I'm 83 yrs old, and I try not to make the same "mistake" twice; I purchased an [on-line/delivered from out of state] tree in Spring of '21, and it failed due to the NEW heat issue. I plan on purchasing a new tree this week, and will get that sucker in ground by mid Oct. Good luck with your choices..

Anyway, glad this isn't our home location (was just shopping while dealing with A&M stuff), and I feel sorry for the locals who have to deal with it. Wow.

I ordered my new dryer and it will be delivered this weekend. I will definitely visit this location again.
