I usually love Ollie's, but unfortunately, this one trip kind of missed the mark. The store was an absolute wreck and looked like a bomb went off inside it. On one aisle, there were so many items shoved onto the shelves that you couldn't even tell what they were, and it would have been hopeless to try and sort through them to find one that you liked. In another area of the store, there were just ripped boxes placed on top of a shelf, and again, you couldn't even tell what the merchandise was, and it looked very disorganized. In the rug and carpet section, it was perhaps the most disorganized that I've ever seen a store be, and there was even a carpet sticking out into the aisle, making it impossible to pass through. I know that you don't really go to Ollie's for an organized and aesthetically pleasing shopping experience, but this one trip was a little too excessive. Luckily, this was the first time that this has happened to me at this Ollie's, so I'm hoping that it was just a one-time thing, and I'll still be back in the future. read more

5/31/24 my second visit here. Pretty good selection on discounted items. I noted great selection on rugs, coffee cups, and books. NOTE: When I checked out, I signed up for the rewards program to get 15% off my purchase.....but found out it was for my NEXT purchase, AFTER I go online and VERIFY that she nice lady checking me out entered my information correctly. Better stuff than a known competitor. Will be back! read more

I haven't visited this store in a few years so since I was free I decided to browse around. This store is kept nicely, nothing was in the aisles when I attended, customer service was very friendly and willing to offer any assistance I needed. I will say this store has great bargains. I enjoyed grabbing things I didn't need! Store is filled with affordable items that won't break your pockets. I will definitely shop there again soon! read more

Lot of stuff and a reasonable price and I get a lot for a bargain. That will last me. I buy a lot for friends who are looking for things they can't find read more

Been a loyal customer for years. However, I will be taking my business elsewhere. Went up there today. Time was 3:15pm. Doors are locked. However, there were customers in side. The older lady with glass was at the register and yelled they were closed. Sign on door says open until 5pm on Sundays. A gentleman pulled up asked if they were closed I stated apparently. He walked up to the door. Lady said the same thing again that they were closed. I got back in my truck and witnessed them opening the door to let the gentleman in because they know him. This is not the first time I have visited the store and the doors were locked WAY before closing hours. I will find another place todo business at. read more

I am a frequent shopper at Ollies and I just was at their store shopping in Orangeburg Sc. I brought Flintstones Toddler vitamins I checked the expiration date at the store and I didn't realize that the expiration date was 04/2022...I brought those vitamins on 09/28/2022! This is unacceptable!!! read more

My visit was uneventful. I visited with my mother who was returning something. The cashier had a colorful personality and I could see that she tries to connect with customers. For the most part the store was clean and organized. Love the low prices on the books. Would return. read more

I've heard that my father-in-law loves this place. Ollie's is a similar franchise to Cook Brothers Warehouse in Chicagoland, with a catchy slogan "good stuff cheap." Alright, let me see how "good" and how "cheap" their stuff would be. There were a few items that stood out that were inexpensive: - Keurig k-cups: I saw some 80-ct packages for less than $25. Although some brands were unknown or unseen before, the prices were quite tempting to give them a try. - travel-size toiletries: I spotted the Pantene shampoo and conditioner for thirty-three (33) cents. For some reason, there was a massive huge selection on heavy-duty carpets. Hubby and I just strolled through the section since that wasn't pertaining to us. By the way, do they sell their "Uncle Sam" promotional posters? My favorite the is "grande" bargains one. I thought most of them were very creative and whimsical. In terms of their travel-size shampoo and conditioner deals I discovered, the St. Andrews location had "ten (10) for $1" sale. That was way more fabulous than the $0.33/bottle I found at their Garners Ferry location. What? Coffee, cream, and sugar are complementary in the house!! That was a great way to show southern hospitality. read more

My friend and I stopped by an Ollie's to look for a study bible and we couldn't locate it in the other Ollie's so I looked this one up and stopped in here. Just like the other one, they had so much stuff in it and like the other, the Bible's were right up front so I went right to them. I found the Bible I wanted and I went to check out, where I picked up a few things and checked out. The cashier was sooo sweet but she looked tired. She had a great smile!! I asked how she was and she responded with a sigh...and said, "I'm ok...just ok"! I engaged in a conversation with her cause I fully understand those days! I signed up for the Ollie's savings card. She explained to me how the card worked and the coupons would come to me. This is a store that you will need time to be in to thoroughly look through. I think you could possibly find many things you are looking for but you will have to look!! read more

The people here are always SO NICE! Every time I walk in, they say hello and call me by name! I love it. Their book selection is great!

Got a mailer the other day and we decided to give this place a try. The mailer was a bit deceiving in that I honestly though this store was a place that just sold tools and outdoor equipment like ACE hardware etc. Nope! They have all kinds of stuff! My wife and I absolutely love it here and you can get some extremely good prices on a lot of items. They've got everything from kids toys to books, furniture, carpet and flooring, household cleaners, automotive items etc! It has a flee market feel and that's a great thing! Definitely will be regulars here. Oh and our cashier was amazing! read more

Great customer service. Alice and Brittany are great. Very helpful and positive attitudes. They have a variety of things to choose from at this store. A hodgepodge of things and can get some really great deals. read more

Kind of like Big Lots' weird cousin I would say. Very similar products. Ollie's does have TONS of books, especially kid's books, for REALLY cheap though. Worth a visit just for that. Behind McDonalds in the old Wal-mart/Sears building next to Southeastern Salvage. read more

Great for ASOTV (As Seen On TV) items and the clothes are great quality. Most anything electrical in this store is factory refurbished or a factory overrun when stores like Lowe's, Home Depot, Walmart or Target cancel factory orders. 1st rate merchandise at a little bit less cost. Store is always clean and stocked due to a worker shortage they haven't through no fault of their own been able to keep the sheleved as organized as Walmart or Target can. But that means there might sometimes be a forgotten gem of item you want. They don't have enough staff to keep you in hold to check if they have something so to find out if they have what you want you must visit that storeand look in person or send someone you trust not to lie to you to verify what they have. read more

Walked in this store and was woweed by how clean and super organized it was. Emplyees were friendly and helpful with my shopping experience. Overall, excellent. Just thought the manager could have had more personality. read more

I just left Ollie's with the Sale Paper that started today 29 August 2019 and it is 6:55PM . Not only did they not have any of the 5 items I had circled in the Flyer but the Stock Clerk acted like I had a virus or something because he didn't want to answer any questions or reveal where the items may have been. I am a long time Ollie's shopper and a Ollie's Army Card Holder. I expected better********* read more

Great place!!! Found a vacuum that I have been looking for and it was over $100.00 less than anywhere else. Was very pleased with the customer service. They were very polite and helpful with trying to help me get the vacuum. Will definitely come back. read more

My first trip was exciting, and I found what I needed. At the register I signed up for a customer card, one that I could use to collect loyalty points and track previous purchases. The heater I bought during that first visit almost caught my house on fire, as I woke up to it popping and glowing an eerie blue. I went to return the heater, and I provided my card to use for receipt purposes. Turns out, I was lied to - the card is only for rewards. I was offered $11 in store credit for a device that could have killed me. I'm never returning. read more

Fun little place to go check out. Lots of clearance and reconditioned items. Relatively large book selection for check. Often go there to check out recipe books for 1/4 the price. Since there are a lot of clearance and reconditioned items, pay attention to what you purchase. Items go on the shelf in the condition they were received in, that included sometime broken items. But it you pay attention you can find some pretty good deals. read more

Got a toilet plunger for cheap here. They have a lot of discounted items, probably not of the best quality, but I don't think that's why anyone comes here. A lot of interesting things you probably can't find anywhere else, it's fun to look around even if you're not buying anything. read more

I don't go often but the couple of times I went I found some random items at cheap prices. I found medicine balls for the weight room at literally half the price. I found yoga mats for $5. I purchased name brand hair products and medical supplies cheaper too. Band-aids & gauge for my office. read more

Worst CS!! I can not even find any worker on the floor to ask a question... It's Saturday... Everybody out for shopping, but this store has only 2 register open and line 15ft long on both... They need to hire some more help ASAP and make this store going...Love coming here, but don't have a time to stay in line this long! !! Can't find their msnager... No one knows who and where!! read more

Fun place to poke around, reminds me of the old Mr. Amazing back in the day- or maybe a bigger, less organized version of a big lots. I found particularly good deals on melamine plates and curtains. read more
