    This place is the new interesting shopping place to go to. Bargain Bins is an overstock of Target…read moreand Amazon. Starting on Saturday the line is around the corner of the building with people waiting to get a deal. The warehouse is lined with wooden crates that are full of everything you can imagine from toys to blankets to household items. There are a couple of rules but they're pretty straight forward. Shopping: Adults 16 and older are given a large blue IKEA bag. Whatever you can fit in it you can buy for only $7! That's every single item in the store. Once the bag is full you have to pay but you can come back in as many times as you want. If there is a box you want opened to see inside just ask a store employee and they will be happy to help you. Opening it on your own will get you kicked out. Only a certain amount of people are allowed in at a time so you may have to wait. No large bags or purses are allowed inside so just bring your wallet. They take cash or card. Don't drag the blue bags because they will rip. Saturday's everything is $7, Sunday it's $5. Parking: parking is limited on busy days. The Goose Creek police are there on weekends to help with traffic control and making sure everyone behaves. Don't park in the local business parking spots or you'll get towed. You can line the roadway against the grass closer to the train tracks. Food: Yes! Food trucks are here on the weekend serving out delicious food for hungry shoppers. The staff is really friendly and helpful. You never know what you'll find hidden under the piles so have fun!

    My first time checking this place out. I was not too impressed, but I did come at 2pm. I assume…read moreif you are there at opening you might be able to find better products. Staff was pretty mellow with not a lot of interaction. I may come back one day at opening time.

    I love this store! I cannot think of one time that an employee was rude to me. Granted, some are…read moremore friendly than others but overall no problem at all. You can find curt/rude employees anywhere. If you do not like to dig through the junk to find the treasures then don't go there. And NO! Everything is NOT broken. That's crazy. I'd say most is new and how it got there I don't care. I've bought guy/car things my son has sold. I have been finding great deals for the 1 1/2-2 years I've been going. I've sold many items - especially clothing on Ebay. Found numerous house hold items at fab prices. On Fridays when they restock all new items you need to know prices of things so you don't overpay but that comes from being a educated shopper. I've learned a lot over the years of thrifting and selling. I've gotten some very great deals there and I will keep on shopping! BTW I liked the girl with the curly hair and tattoos. She was super friendly.

    I am still in absolute disbelief about what happened at Where Ya Bin Charleston today. I have never…read morein my entire life been spoken to or treated the way I was by one of their employees. For context, Where Ya Bin is a BIN STORE. Which means the entire point of the store is for customers to dig, sift, and inspect overstock, returned, and damaged items. You go there to look, touch, and decide if something is worth buying. Sort of like a treasure hunt. Handling merchandise is not just allowed, it is expected. This context is what makes what happened today even more ridiculous. While shopping, I briefly pulled an item out of an already ripped-open, destroyed bag to get a better look at a visible crack. Before I could even put it back, a woman stormed up to me and immediately told me to "check out and leave." She did not identify herself as an employee or manager. In that moment she was just some stranger barking at me. When I said, "I'm sorry?" out of complete disbelief, she accused me of taking the item out of the bag. I calmly showed her the torn packaging and explained the item was literally falling out. Her response was, "It doesn't matter." At which point she laughed and says "See you just ripped it more." THE PLASTIC BAG WAS ALREADY RIPPED OPEN IN MULTIPLE PLACES. She then tried to justify her behavior by referencing an announcement that was supposedly playing in the store, that no one could hear, and that was in SPANISH. I don't speak Spanish. Neither did anyone around me. Expecting customers to comply with inaudible announcements in another language, with zero guidance or explanation, is absurd. Given her tone, I told her I was trying to be very kind and I just did not understand why I was being asked to leave. She responded, "I'm being kind too." At that point, I said, "Actually no, you're not. Your tone is incredibly disrespectful." Because she was. It almost felt like she was actively looking for a reason to remove my friends and I from the store. For context, this individual is about 5'2", has short black hair, and many visible tattoos and piercings. I mention this because her behavior made her unmistakably identifiable. Her approach was confrontational, accusatory, and entirely inappropriate. Based on the NUMEROUS Google reviews about the same individual with the exact same situation, this isn't a one off. It's a pattern. My friends and I immediately abandoned our very full cart and left. Between us, we would have easily spent $100-$300 each, nearly a $2,000+ sale lost all because of her actions. Believe it or not, it escalated further. While we were near our cars in the parking lot privately discussing the interaction, this same individual FOLLOWED US OUTSIDE. She stood against the wall smoking, staring directly at us, and clearly listening to our conversation. This was intimidating, unnecessary, and made me feel extremely uncomfortable as the one that had been singled out in a group of seven. Once we noticed her presence, we walked to the consignment store next door. Only after a couple of my friends returned to the store and asked to speak with a manager did this individual finally identify herself as one. Instead of providing any clarification, she forcefully told them to leave, claimed she "felt threatened," and stated that all of us were now banned. Claiming to feel threatened by customers who had already left and were then followed outside is WILD. Absolutely unbelievable. This was not a simple misunderstanding. This was a power trip, a misuse of authority, and a complete failure of basic professionalism. If this is how management reacts over a customer inspecting damaged merchandise, it says a lot about this store's culture. Charleston has plenty of bargain places to shop. This is not one I will be returning to until something changes with management. Anyone considering this store should think carefully before stepping inside.

    Located somewhat by Culvers on Ladson Rd in a very safe section of town, this Dollar General isn't…read moreas bad as I anticipated. Walking in they have a lot more up to date items than most discount stores I've been too. Moreover, the employees are pretty good about giving a greeting which means a lot to me. The floors are clean and I didn't see a lot of products needing to be stocked. As for the inventory, the shelves were nicely organized while not being cluttered. As for a discount store, they had a really good selection, also having a lot of things even grocery stores didn't have such as Dirty Dew, regular and zero in bottles. I've only seen normal cans every where else. Next up the isles are easy to navigate and the coolers had a few products I actually considered like Ben & Jerrys' Chubby Hubby and wontons. Granted the prices weren't exactly undercutting anyone else but they have a selection. The employees were very nice and smiling and if I see a smile I assume they're being treated well and that does make a difference. The employee I interacted with even held my items while I went back b/c I forgot to get milk. Moreover, the people shopping here were nice as well so the atmosphere is pleasant. This was an unexpected shopping experience and I'm glad to report they have my vote and future business. The store is clean, there isn't much clutter, they're up on the latest trends and the people are nice in a safe environment. While I can't say their price is much better than anyone else the experience wasn't bad. Stop on by if you need something quickly or it might not be out at a grocery store yet.

    This is a newer location for Dollar General, so that's a plus…read more HOWEVER, I have stopped here a few times and they were closed for random things. When I have been able to shop, the staff seemed friendly enough & they have a large variety of random things you may or may not need, but purchase anyway. It can get messy sometimes, but I can't blame the store for that. Customers/shoppers are often rude & make a mess without the courtesy of cleaning up after themselves.

    larger Family Dollar Tree General type of place to shop. Walking in I will give credit for being…read moreclean and safe but it has a soul sucking vibe to it, like walking into a department store from Napoleon Dynamite (I hope you get the reference). I would say they don't utilize floor space well. I browsed around for an item I was trying to locate - a light bulb changer extender. Still I don't mind as I was able to wonder around a bit. What caught my eye is some of the harder to find items that many don't carry such as Frosties blue cream soda! Mt Dew and Cream Soda are my favorite soft drinks, the one time I drink them a week, anyways Frosties is hands down the best. Next they had another product, some new pop tarts that were just released. This indicates they are up to date with new product releases. I will say this though I couldn't find hairspray! I quickly browsed some clothes and furniture. I'm going to abstain from commenting b/c that sort of stuff is extremely subjective. However please note it's there and they do have a section that's not huge but there are gems to be found. Better than Walmart or a thrift shop but less than the better known furniture exclusive products like Maxwood Furniture (selfless shout out to a local company). The employees were nice and the line moved relatively quick. I watched their interactions with customers and both were cordial thus reinforcing my claims it's a safe place to shop. I only noticed the once cashier so I'm not sure how things get during a busy time. As for prices it's comparable to a grocery store but a smidge higher than a discount store or Walmart. They aren't bad but to be honest if I have to buy food I wouldn't come there to shop. Moreover the selection is limited. Same with hardware and things of that nature but they do have an interesting collection of outside festive decorations such as 4th of July. Overall, I think I'm not the target audience at Big Lots and that's ok. I've heard some swear by it and that's fine. The place is clean, the employees are pleasant and they have a wide selection of items but within those items they don't have a good selection. Moreover, I don't see the realized cost savings but it's not like I was inspecting everything. Overall, drop by and they might have what you need but that might be hit or miss.

    This is a place that I shop at regularly. Their merchandise is well made for an excellent price…read more Especially at Christmas time, they offer such unique gifts for your family and friends that's hard to find anywhere else. They also sell some of the best known brands of furniture. So check them out for all of their bargains and lower prices.
