I love the great feel of a clean store. I bought a new Shop light that is usually $30.00 but at…read moreOcean State Job Lot it was only $14.00 a great deal especially since it was an industrial size and type light. I also get some supplies and shelving there that was cheaper than retail price and it was good quality as well as strong enough for the items I am storing in it. I love this store and hope to come back soon as it is my favorite store to go to and closest.

We know Job Lot stores don't seem to get a lot of love. It's a bottom-line centered discount…read more"department" store and we doubt they expect affection from customers. But we think they deserve a little extra credit. Sure, they have some good products at discounted (sometimes VERY discounted) prices, and every now and then there's a stumble. But the store's employees (at this location, anyway) seem well trained, pleasant and helpful when we're around. Further -- and importantly -- the store has a sense of community responsibility, which is probably part of a larger management philosophy that we heartily approve of. One example: if you buy a winter coat for the store to donate to the needy, you get a $40 store certificate in return. It seems a good deal for those in need; we know one of the recipients, and we think this is a genuinely caring project. So yeah, there's an occasional complaint, but overall we're very happy to shop here and expect to continue doing so.

Think of everything sold in a big shopping mall, thin those products down so they fit inside a big…read morebut manageably sized store, toss in (for the most part) pretty reasonable prices, and you have Big Lots. Food, clothing, household goods, toys, furniture, small appliances, health and beauty aids -Big Lots has them all. The store was squeaky clean, free of clutter in the aisles, the shelves were stocked with easy to read pricing, and the staff was super polite, friendly and very helpful. As you walk through the store, you'll find markdown sections, where the pricing gets even better. For example. We picked up two packets of sunflower butter for a quarter each. We also got a super nice 4 Quart covered pan for $20, nicely priced Zip Lock bags, aluminum foil, shampoo, Lever soap bars, laundry detergent, some soup, and beef jerky rounded out our eclectically random order. To make things even better, if you previously shop at Big Lots (like we have), you'll occasionally get a $10 off of $20 coupon and random offers for free stuff, like yesterday's two-pack of Kleenex tissues. So, with our discounts, we paid just $37 before tax for all of that random stuff, including the $20 frying pan. Good pricing, a pleasant staff, and a neatly stocked store combined to provide us with a very enjoyable shopping experience.

They have fresh food, cheese, ham, everything you expect to find in a market. Like it implies in it's name. It is a smaller market then a Stop and Shop, but could get you through a quiet week. It's pretty well stocked and very clean. There was one very strange shopper who seemed to take offense someone asked me for help because I'm taller then both other people involved and insisted on reaching for a product with the tips of her fingers instead.

Walking inside, the high ceilings and the balloons everywhere were the first things I saw. Luckily, the balloons are contained to the front but there's a lot of them. The first aisles have seasonal (at the time, Easter) and the rest do have what you need for day to day living. Also, perhaps things you don't ... I don't really need a cup holder trash can, but it's adorable and now it's mine. It was only a few bucks too, the cost value is what you've come to expect. This works better on some products then others - the baby blankets were very cost effective, also very thin. The aisles are pretty well faced, and there's nothing blocking the floor. The cashiers seemed very friendly, but were so efficient you didn't spend much time with them.

The People who do work here are friendly and always willing to help. The only issue is not enough counter space to put your items up to be scanned, them bagging and then trying to hand you the items while you're trying to get the rest up. There is usually a line trying to check out again because the company doesn't want to hire enough people.

You can see it from across the dark parking lot! Speaking of which, parking is plentiful since we're dealing with a big plaza. Inside you have a little bit of everything. They have coolers for cold food, regular groceries, greeting cards, seasonal, paper products, etc. Aisles are okay size, and the store is big enough where you can avoid other shoppers. There are some places admittedly better faced than others - picture frames are discombobulated, but seasonal Halloween looked picture perfect. The cashier was really friendly with the best register "bell" to summon him I've ever seen.
