Great prices but not worth it on a Saturday with 2 cashiers, long lines, bathroom out of order.

I have been a loyal Gabe's shopper since before the Florence, KY store was opened. During the past few months, my mind has changed a great deal here of late. It was mid November,my Husband and I went to Gabe's hoping to score some nice Christmas gifts. Find we did! Our cart was literally piled full of merchandise we were going to buy. We went to check out and the line went way into the store itself. There were 25-30 people ready to checkout! What a joke! There was ONE CASHIER for all these people. The cashier wasn't in any hurry at all! She was taking her sweet time checking people out. When it was clear we would be in line for at least an hour we just left our cart and left the store! Fast forward a couple months and once again we went to Gabe's for some good deals. NOT a good idea! Once again we went to checkout and we encountered the same damned thing! I don't know if I'll ever shop there again! It's a shame bc I spent a lot of money there! read more

Went there for the first time. Great selection and prices! Good deals on brand names like North Face & Carhart.. etc. long lines for checkout tho. Not impatient so doesn't affect my rating. 10/10 read more

Gabes on Plank Rd in Spotsylvania. Overall Gabes is a good place to shop if you have the time to pick through everything since items are put on the wrong racks more often than not. It is generally hit or miss on finding what I want though. My only complaint is the woman who works in the dressing rooms. Or should I say doesn't work. I rang the bell and waited, and waited. I tried the doors closest to the front but they were all locked. After 5 minutes she showed up, counted my clothes and pointed to the dressings further away. "Go ahead" says she. I tried a few and they were locked. I asked her to open one for me. "There should be one opened somewhere " says she. I did finally find one. This is the same lady who has been there on my last three visits, she never smiles and always acts like you are bothering her. I would give another star if it wasn't for her. read more

Gabe's has been around since 1961 and is a discount store that offers women's/men's/kid's clothing, footwear, toys, accessories, and house decor items. There are some limited name brand items you can find, but most of the sales racks and the various racks that are placed throughout the store are more of a hodgepodge of items. I was able to find a simple blazer for work, so I was pretty happy about that! It is a bit difficult to maneuver throughout the racks, as they are placed pretty close in proximity with each other. The shoes section was not much of a variety, and the toys section was extremely disorganized with products all over the floor. Checkout moved along in a timely fashion, and the cashiers were really friendly. Plenty of parking available in the shared plaza lot. +discount store in clothing, accessories, shoes, and toys +located in the Kmart plaza read more

So this store is a mixture of Roses, Scotsman's (remember that store from back in the day) to a Ross. The clothes here can look like something the store found back in the warehouse from years ago and was like "Hey let's put it out on the floor and see if it will sale!" Some clothes look so old, I had to keep checking if I wasn't in a thrift store. But they do have store brand names like Express, Rue 21, New and Company but again styles from years ago, so it wasn't that impressive. The clothes that are irregular they do mark it on the tag. And clothes that are updated styles were reasonably priced. I did find workout clothes for good prices and few flip flops. read more

After going back a few times, I realize that Gabe's is terribly unorganized now! I have no idea who's in charge of organizing each department, but they are not on their job. Different sizes mixed throughout, juniors mixed in with the women's. A good deal of their items are damaged so you'd have to examine each item carefully before buying. Some of their shoes are unusually larger (a size 6 does not fit like a true size 6). So try them on before buying.....same with the clothes. They have a HUGE selection of items, if you're a shop-a-holic like me, you can easily spend 2+ hours in this store! They have a really good rewards program- you build up points as you shop. Receive 1 point for every $1 spent. Receive a $5 reward coupon for every $50* spent. Reward coupons now expire 30 days from date of issuance (giving you more time to come back for great deals!) Reward points accumulate over a three-month calendar quarter giving you more time to earn rewards. Of course I'm going back! read more

Very bad customer service, extremely rude and unhelpful very unorganized staff, service and clothing!! Would not recommend

I love going here! Usually find tons of good deals because their stuff is fairly cheap. They always have cute house decor! Although they could straighten up the store a little better and clean the bathrooms more often. read more

I stood in line for 20 minutes to pick up my layaway. The card reader on their machine was broken the manager had poor customer service. I was unable to obtain my purchase with out additional wait was very annoyed today. Usually I love the cheap prices even though the store is unorganized but today I almost stopped being. Customer read more

I understand these kind of stores do not pay employees too, much but there must be some level of human civility. The customer services are absolutely horrible. The fitting room employees was so unfriendly. They were. acting like I was bothering them with attitude and mean responses. This is not the first time their employees are acting rude like this. Do not spend your money at places that do not respect customers. read more

They have 10 registers most they always have open is 2 regardless of how long the line is if you go in for something quick be prepared to wait an hour in line read more

Gabe's has inexpensive merchandise, but you've really got to search to find the GOOD stuff. This particular Gabe's gets shipment regularly, so you can usually find something if you search long enough. However, standard for this chain, their stores are notorious for being disorganized. (I will say that this is one of the most organized Gabes I've seen, but that's not saying much.) I've been able to find Express, Betsey Johnson, Anthropologie, Mizuno running shoes, nurse mates shoes, WVU Nike football jerseys and other great name brands from this location. When finding items at Gabes-- always look it over before purchasing! Make sure it's all in one piece, zippers work, etc before purchasing as they are known to carry defective pieces. They have everything from clothing for all ages, shoes, home goods, electronics, books, toys and snacks. I guess you get what you pay for at Gabes, but I've always been a fan! read more

This store is a fun place to look at! It's similar to Ross, but they have more variety on their clothes and shoes. You can also find many varieties of items like homeware, purses, makeup/beauty products, and etc. with great bargain prices! I personally like this store for buying new shoes because they have a nice wide selection full of them and they are super affordable! The clothes are very cute and nice, but it can be a pain to look through everything due to their lack of organization. Overall, I do recommend this store for anyone who is on a tight budget and want to find nice items for less. read more

They have some cool home decor where but have to be careful once bough a area rug that was wrapped all nice until I opened it up and it had a huge chunk missing. For a department store they have some really brands here wide selection of baby clothes. read more

Great store with low prices and friendly staff. The store is usually kept clean but occasionally there a things thrown about the floor and disorganized. read more

Finally a decent selection of men's shoes. I think this is the best of this type of store in Fredericksburg. I expect to dig at these places, this is no exception. I always find nice clothes and decent electronics at very good prices. read more

Great place if you're on a budget but still want a chance at finding name brand items. I've even got some decorations and cleaning supplies from gabes. Prices are decent. Store is very well organized. read more

Very disappointed, they have terrible customer service. A store should not sell large items if they won't hold them for a day so a bigger vehicle can be found to transport. A Day..... read more
