Stopped in the other day and the store has gone downhill. Lots of empty space, regular products out…read moreof stock, For what it is, a $1.25 item store, my expectations are compatible, I'm not expecting Nordstrom level customer service or quality, but do expect products on the shelf. Large parking right in front of store makes it convenient if you are on this part of SE Powell. It is a sketchy neighborhood so that could be the reason why store is not as kept up.

It was Wednesday night, and I must say, the cashier I spoke to was phenomenal. I was having a terrible day. This may be tmi but the visit was spurred on by my grandmothers death, and I was in a very bad mood on Wednesday night. I came in just to buy an energy drink. And just the energy that cashier gave. She was incredibly respectful, a little jokey. It just brought some light to my night that was goin so terribly. I went to a couple dollar trees and similar stores on my trip, but that was suprisingly the highlight. I didn't catch her name but it appeared she was the only cashier working. Please hire more employees like her, because even the smallest thing can make someone's night. 10/10, will come to the same location again next time I visit my family

Service- morning time there's usually 1 cashier. If it picks up and gets busy you might get a…read moresecond cashier but due to staffing issues, they're pretty short staffed. Selection- there would probably be more selection if the store could get organized and cleaned up. There's lots of items strung along the store, out of place, some garbage in aisles and on the shelf. Value- it's a $1.25 I mean you can't get much cheaper than that. Bathrooms- I don't recommend using. One bathroom has a missing toilet seat. It's not cleaned or kept up unfortunately.

A little patience and you'll get through the line. They called for help once the lines built up and got people through in no time. Guess it depends on the time and day. Store was kept up and well stocked. This is the closest $1.25 store in the area. They offer cash back for a fee for your convenience. You can expect to spend more than what you originally planned to spend here, just like Costo. Browse around you'll find some treasures. Tip- bring your own bag if you don't want to pay for a bag.

Wandered in thinking this was a fruit and veggie market and was immediately hit with the visual…read moredisarray, I realized it was grocery liquidation store. Since I was already there, I ventured through. Huge bags of shredded carrots, prepackaged bags of chopped salads and other produce nearing expiration date for just a $1. I grabbed two. Containers of cut up watermelon, cantaloupe as well as whole bananas and other produce very cheap. Picked up an onion to use for that night's dinner. Didn't want to buy anything I couldn't use immediately as these veggies are a day or two away from going bad. Shelves and carts filled with canned pantry items, cereals, breakfast bars all nearing expiration - good for families that go through these items weekly. By the checkout there were some Chocolove and Theo chocolate bars. These are high end chocolate bars that usually sell for $3.99 a bar and here they were just a $1 with an expiration of Dec 2021 so I picked up two. That alone was worth the stop! Items move fast which is why the store is in a constant stage of unpacking. Huge outdoor area with produce located close to street - don't forget to check it out. In addition to produce they had 6 packs of bottled water, huge containers of pretzels, bags of dog food and other items.. Very random, no rhyme or reason, seems like items are placed where there is room. Friendly owner and staff, everyone chatting with everyone; clearly there are lots of regulars. They take credit cards. Parking out front. I missed the turn into the lot so parked around the corner by the Goodwill and walked over. This store is exactly what it is. A market that takes in items close to expiration and liquidates on the cheap. It's not New Seasons! So as long as you set your expectations and you have a need for these type of items, it's all good. For me, this was a one and done.

It starts off bad with pallets and other trash in the parking lot. Inside, stuff is close to or past the sell-by date and it shows. I like the idea of reducing waste and helping people with grocery costs in this day and age, but I just can't justify the savings for the experience here.

Many items now at retail price or only slightly below, yet past manufacture best by dates. This place used to have some killer deals and bargains. But for the same price, it's a better deal for you just to buy the fresher product at Fred's or another grocer. Gone are the days of liquidation prices that made this place worth a visit. Now it's just disappointing.

GrossOut is a good place to shop, but not for everything. All kinds of bargains, sometimes really…read moregreat (e.g., several pounds of Danish butter cookies for only $5 in a large tin, about 75% off, maybe more), sometimes brands you've never heard of from far away so you're taking a chance, but that can really pay off too. Their fruits and veggies are not so hot, and the egg prices are low but the large eggs are surely the smallest they can legally label as large. We skip the fresh stuff; your best bets are in factory-packaged foods, in cans and jars and boxes and frozen stuff. And we shop differently there: at Fred's we go find what's on our list, pay up and go home, but at GrossOut we go up and down the aisles to see what temptations they have today. Sometimes very good deals on cheese, candy and snacks too. They used to have some fabulous high-end German milk chocolate at about a third of what it was elsewhere, but that was years ago and we stopped buying that stuff a long time and now we don't even look in the snacks and candy aisle. That's another thing: if you see something you want, buy it because you may never see it again. Can't recommend the meat or fish; I've been tempted a few times into buying attractive-looking meat and fish in a bubble-pack in the front of the store and been disappointed each time. (Stick with frozen.) Also, all the people working in every GrossOut I've been in have been very nice, without exception, another reason we like to go there. In summary: for your weekly grocery shopping, not so hot, but for bargain-hunting often rewarding, so it gets an enthusiastic 4 stars.
