Big Daddy hits a sweet spot among fireworks stores. I've been to many fireworks stores, including…read moreothers in the area, across the state, and in several other states. I think Bigg Daddy has the best shopping experience for my purposes, and I'd imagine many other people's purposes, of any of them. They're big enough to have not just something for everyone but an above average selection in most product categories. The people there are great: they greet you when you enter and offer help, and are willing to give you a full tour of everything they have, to spare you the tour and help you quickly find exactly what you want, even if you don't know what that is, or to leave you alone and let you browse. They have tv screens around the store linked to scanners. You can scan the barcodes on many of the products (including the vast majority of the multishot boxes) to see video of those fireworks in action. It's great! So much better than shopping blind and hoping that an expensive show in a box is decent. I didn't do any direct price comparisons with other shops, but their prices seemed pretty reasonable compared to my expectations from the times I've bought fireworks in the past. Whenever I next get fireworks in the area, this will be my first choice of places to get them.

I really don't think this place is reputable, or at least not competent. I bought a big-ticket…read moreitem here and was told that since it was a medical device there would be no sales tax. Only after the delivery people left did I scrutinize the receipt and discover I had been charged $200 in sales tax. I called a different local medical supply place to make sure I hadn't been dreaming when thinking there would no tax on this device. They assured me there would not be. So I had to get back to Penn-York to have them refund the sales tax. "Gee, I can't imagine how you ended up being charged sales tax," my sales person eventually told me. I would guess either incompetence, or a hope that I would not question the sales tax, thinking I had misheard this, and everyone there could go out to dinner with that $200. He blamed it all on a computer glitch. I'd almost be willing to pay $200 just for the courtesy of not being yelled at when I called to point out that mistake. "I bill is wrong. I got charged more than I was supposed to..." I began. "I told you! If you paid with a credit card it would be an additional 3.5%!" my salesman yelled before I could explain the situation. "No, I was charged tax. I'm almost certain you told me that there would not be any tax because it was medical device." "There is no way you were charged tax!" "Well, I'm looking at my receipt, and there is a box labeled 'sales tax' and that box has $200 in it.'" Then there was some run around where first I'd get a refund check, then I was told they couldn't do that--the money would be refunded back to my credit card--and then it went back to sending me a check. At one point in the conversation I said something like, "Well, before you erroneously added $200 to my bill for tax..." and the lady I was talking to said, "How dare you say we did that erroneously! It was a simple error!" I had to say, "Lady, the word 'erroneously' means 'in error'." Gee, get an SAT review book and start studying some vocabulary words. Take my advice.

Unfortunately, it's the principle thistime and I feel some issues like mine should have been handled better when I brought this to attention. I have gone to the battery world in vestal 3 times to get a battery and all times left satisfied and trusted I got good service, but NOT this time and I am disappointed in the service, disappointed in the response from the owner.  I brought my truck in for abattery replacement and 3 weeks later my truck was not starting up right with the NEW battery. I checked under the hood to find out the issue was they replaced my original battery set-up parts with a different side post terminal that was too short, wrong size and left the cable nut barely holding the cable on-to the battery. Any good experienced auto service technician would have known this seen this and correctly fix it and would have known leaving it the my cable mount this way would not work well in a moving vehicle later and in time. I really dislike when any auto shop like battery world would leave doing a bad job like this and choking-it-up to the customer will never know what we did. this is the fact of what it is.  I called and brought this matter to the manager's attention. He remembered me coming in to purchase a battery, remembers the installation and blaming ware and tear and NOT the real issue of a incorect part was used in place megshift the job. His reply has left me NOT convincing. It Cost me 10 bucks to get the RIGHT part at the auto store, something they could have gone to get and to do a good job from the start. Personally my original part was in good shape and I feel the technician lost the part, dropped it in the motor compartment and? because I have done that and you need to look for it.  Businesses have to be put on account, ifyou find you don't carry the right parts for every installation, to do theright job, the right thing and let the customer know and try to make it RIGHTthen tell me instead and make it RIGHT and NOT do the shabby work.As far as I am concerned, the customerservice they used to offer has eroded. It is unfortunate because I prefer toshop and go to small businesses to give my business to them, but my experiencethis last time with battery world has given me a different perspectivewhether to do business with them again or having to recheck their workbefore leaving.

"Mike Slavic is about as helpful as a Blind Bank teller" I…read moreseriously don't know how this place got 5 stars because their Customer Service is horrible! And the Manager is a moron. This has to be the most incompetent business in Vestal NY. I have a registered LLC as a Film Studio and am a Film maker right here in Binghamton. 2 years ago I had 2 Camcorders that are 4K Ultra. Unfortunately they only came with 2 batteries and no charger. I decided to go to Battery World to to buy 2 backup batteries and a Recharger. The Clerk took my information and placed my order. It took nearly a month (3.5 weeks) to get a call saying my order arrived. I went back to the store, paid for my 2 extra batteries and Recharger and left. About 2 years later last week I went into Battery world to see if they still had my order on file because I wanted to buy additional batteries for the same cameras, as I misplaced them. As I was walking into the store a Customer was cursing out what looked like the Store Manager and the customer was furious. I walked pass them straight to the Clerk and this was about the dumbest idiot I ever met in my life. I told him the situation and I was quite professional about it, more than the customer cursing out the Manager. The Clerk then asked for my name which I provided. He then told me that he has the charger that I ordered on file but no recollection of the batteries that his store ordered for me? And to be honest he looked like a frustrated drug addict waiting for me to leave so he can take his medicine. He looked special. I asked him to check his system again and he got frustrated like it was calculus equations or something. I left the store with a business card. I then called the store later that week and asked to speak to the Manager, Mike Slavic, another dumbass. This dude is about as bright as a box of blown lightbulbs. Mike Slavic is about as helpful as a Blind Bank teller. Mike Slavik takes my last name and pulls up my file from 2 years ago. I explain the situation and he also finds the Battery recharger, but again, does not seem to find the battery # anywhere in his system that his store found and ordered. He then tells me the dumbest sh*t I ever heard in my life. He tells me that each Battery recharger is NOT UNIVERSAL and the battery charger is only for that specific battery. I repeat the same thing that he said to me back to him and then asked him to find the battery for that specific charger that they have on file? DUH! Mike then flat out tells me that if I don't have the battery, then there's nothing that he can do! So in other words he said " I love my paycheck but I hate working for it. So don't expect me to do anything that even remotely looks like work, because you're SOL (sh*t out of luck). DON'T EVER GO TO THIS PLACE, EVER. THEY ARE SUPER IDIOTS.

I brought in a brand new wedding gown with tags still on it in a secure garment bag. Before I could even finish telling her what I brought in, I was told they don't consign wedding dresses anymore. I asked if she knew of anyplace that would as I was surprised by this. She said no and sorry. Again, there was no fault in the conversation but it wasn't a place I would really go into again for certain. The reviews are accurate in the items there-I have seen the same at other thrift stores around; nothing stood out in the experience. I have only a problem in that this website does not specify not accepting wedding dresses. This dress is brand new; 3 months special order from David's in a plus size and gorgeous. Perfect condition; I wanted only for someone in my area to benefit from it for a low cost without it running the risk of being handled in a thrift store. I am not certain how it could have been a deficit to the store as the dress is full lace and vintage looking as it gets. However, I couldn't even show it to her before cut off definitively. I agree with the last review when placing consignment up there in everything stated. It seems to be problems only with people coming to consign and it might very well be my appearance as well that made her more reserved although this is only an impression I got and by no means an absolute.

The clothing is all pretty well organized by size. I appreciate that Thrifty Shopper does two Color-of-the-Day tags, one for 50% off an one for 75% off. I did find several garments tagged in those favorable colors, and used the pretty clean and handy changing rooms to try things on. Unfortunately nothing clothing-wise went home with me, but I did find a couple glassware items and a few books that I purchased. The books section is a small room in the back of the store, but if you dig around we found a few nice titles of interest to us and for our kids. The housewares area was pretty limited, I remember there being more selection. I still use our king-sized full bedroom set that I purchased from here years ago (it's a vintage NBA set!), and recall there being more of a linen variety too. But there was still plenty to poke around for the hour in this thrifting paradise while my husband was in his video game store paradise, haha. If you too like to shop second-hand, this Thrifty Shopper is a quality stop to see what treasures you can find. :-)
