It is run by the Girl Scouts of the USA (which is not affiliated with any local council). My wife and I didn't realize that we were staying right next door, and stopped in for a visit. The two young ladies attending to the store pleasantly engaged my wife about her prior experiences in being a troop leader, and explained a bit about the purpose of the store. It was a nice visit, and my wife ended up buying a couple of badges as souvenirs for our visit, being given later to her two nieces who are currently girl scouts. There was a bulletin board where youth visitors can trade pins with other visitors. There are currently 111 Individual regional group (councils) across the U.S., each covering a specific geographic area. The largest is Girl Scout's Nation's Capital, with 46,000 youth members. Girl Scout's of Greater Los Angeles has 33,000 youth members. As for residents of the city of New York (where this store is located), they are served by the Girl Scouts of Greater New York, which has about 25,000 youth members. The national organization is funded via official merchandising sales and commercial licensing agreements of the Girl Scout brand.

Well these days I see they have established some very lucrative partnerships with the Trendy Companies. I'm going to give you a recommendation for Think Protein Bars that are delicious Thin Mint Flavor. They come in a box of five. I love the slight crunch inside when you take a bite. I learned not to mix it with other foods. Just eat the bar as is and you get the Girl Scout Thin Mint flavor. I'm recommending you check out other Girl Scout collaborations. I'm sure if it's got their name on the product it's good. They are very selective when it comes to a seal of approval using their name!! I know first hand.

Girls who sell enough cookies to qualify for cookie credits can use it towards camp or in this store, credits generally come out late May early June and the girl has until September to use them. Every employee I've encountered in my 10+ years of being a volunteer troop leader has been friendly & helpful, the epitome of Girl Scouts motto. The store is on the first floor of the Girl Scout building, and the hours vary from fall to summer they are posted online at www.gsofct.org The store is organized by troop level which is super helpful.

As a visitor to the city, finding parking on a weekday afternoon was near impossible, until it became possible after what felt like 25 minutes of searching for a spot. The park is truly sprawling and there are many places to explore, including pavilions, bridges, falls, a pond, a creek, and endless paved trails. We also couldn't help but notice that the park overall may not have been maintained consistently, based on the extensive weeds in fountains, for instance. We saw at least two cafes that had pastries, sandwiches, and beverages on their menu that looked good enough to make us think we'd definitely go there if we lived locally. All in all, I'm grateful for this space being available for locals and visitors to enjoy, and hope it is maintained and stays open for many more years.

Came here for Halloween which was a lot of fun. They had costumes for all people who came, a live band, some drink specials and whatnot. You can bet that you'll get your regular bar fare here in terms of drinks, bartenders don't make anything too crazy or fancy. If you want food there is a Portugese restaurant down the street that everybody frequents and brings into the bar to eat. Also, piece of Long Island lore, Katies is notoriously known to be Haunted! Many crews have been here to investigate finding creepy evidence of paranormal activity Could have swore I felt something tug on my cape when I was close to the wall.

Although I received an email, stating that the order was delivered to the store for pickup, the order was not available for at least four days. Despite this hiccup, the staff was friendly, professional, and worked with their customer service department to guarantee that my order was available in a few days. I agree with other Yelpers that the in-store staff is hardworking, friendly, and reliable. I do have several suggestions to improve Family Dollar's In-Store pickup process: 1. Have someone from the Family Dollar store call the customer when their pickup order is actually at the store and ready for pickup. 2. The e-mail system that notifies customers that their items are ready for pickup sends the emails prematurely. Have the emails sent to the client when the order is actually confirmed to be at the store and a representative has actually called the customer, as it did today, when my order was ready. This saves the staff time and clients wasted trips to the store. 3. To improve the in-store shopping experience, I would recommend that management have more than one representative available to check out customers. This will help move customers through the store faster. I will definitely shop here again, and I recommend this Family Dollar Store to anyone living or passing through the area. Thanks to Shanita and Teresa at the central Family Dollar store for getting things squared away for me! Thank you!

For twenty years, I've watched Roosevelt Field Mall evolve from a standard retail hub into a…read moremassive, modern monument to leisure. It is one of those rare, sprawling ecosystem-level malls where you can easily lose an entire day to the pavement and never once feel the itch of boredom. The structural face-lifts have been a massive win, transforming the space into a genuinely premium destination. They have a powerhouse gauntlet of anchor stores--Macy's, Bloomingdale's, Nordstrom, and Neiman Marcus--flanked by a relentless selection of clothing boutiques and a Lego store that remains a pure, nostalgic trip. The food court is the gold standard in variety, standing as one of the best executions of the concept you'll find anywhere. But the real evolution hits in the summer, when the al fresco dining areas open up, offering an outdoor oasis amid the retail hustle. It gets crowded--of course it does--but with plenty of parking to absorb the madness, it remains an absolute favorite. Selection & Shopping (5/5): An elite tier of retail which runs seamlessly from accessible mid-range staples to high-end luxury. The movie theater upgrade is spectacular, a complete night-and-day transformation from what it used to be. Food & Dining for a mall (4.5/5): A massive cut above standard mall fare. The sheer volume of food options is impressive, and the outdoor al fresco spaces give it a vibrant, lively energy during the warmer months. Layout & Convenience (4.25/5): The modern renovations have aged beautifully, keeping the massive footprint easy on the eyes. Despite the heavy crowds, the abundance of parking means you aren't fighting a losing battle before you even get through the doors.
