I just have to say I always find such great stuff at Ollie's! I frequent the one in Griffin, GA…read morebut I also go to the one in Hoover, AL when I am in town there. The book section: if you have never been to an Ollie's their book section, selection, and prices are phenomenal. I find great kids books, I find great sticker books, they have a great choice of superhero books which I've bought several times for birthday and Christmas presents. They have a great variety of adult coloring books, a decent craft book variety and if you're a cookbook aficionado, Ollie's is your place for variety and great prices. Let's talk about office supplies now. Ollie is got a great selection of scissors, stapler, pens, erasers, etc. Also in and around the office supplies are all the craft supplies they're getting from stores going out of business like Joann's. I can always find namebrand quality items from scissors to journals to non-acidic glue sticks to Cricut metal rulers. The toy section in Ollie is hit and miss. It is usually more misses than hits, but if you go down the aisles with all the hanging toys, you can usually find one or two bangers at a great price. My only complaint about toys at Ollie's. Is that their prices tend to be higher than one would expect. For your kitchen, they always have great prices on acrylic storage containers for your pantry or your fridge . They have a phenomenal knife, spatula gadget selection. I just picked up some phenomenal chef knives for $3.98 that cut as good as many German knives as I already own. If I'm close to an Ollie's, I never miss a chance to stroll through the kitchen section for specialty and closeout items that are usually even cheaper than Marshalls or TJ Maxx. If you need a rug, a lot of them have a great variety. But the pricing on the rugs is not any better than Walmart or any of your big box stores like Lowe's or Home Depot. The biggest advantage to Ollie's and rugs is its variety of patterns and sizes. Lastly, I want to talk about seasonal decorations and sunglasses. Seasonal decorations for Christmas and Halloween are usually very pretty and cute and priced at a great price point. Sunglasses: you can get name brand sunglasses like Panama Jack, foster Grant and many other great brands for $2.99 to $3.99. All sunglass brands in the United States are all owned and made by the same company which is Luxotica. It is based in Italy and it's bought up all the namebrand American sunglasses like Ray-Ban and foster Grant. The variety styles vary from store to store and visit to visit. But you will never find a better pair of sunglasses for a better price than Ollie's. The stores are always well organized, clean and fairly well staffed. The bathrooms that I have been in and the different Ollies have always been clean. The employees at Ollie's on the floor have always been helpful and the employees at the registers are just nice. They probably need more cashiers at certain times, but often for me these bargain prices come at only one price to me. That is the extra time you wait in line to pay for your bargains. And we all know this is true from other bargain stores like Ross, TJ Maxx, etc.. The price of your bargain is a time investment. Be sure and not sleep on signing up for Ollie's discount card. When you shop your points and periodically your app will give you 10 to 15% off a whole order that you buy. Sign up for Ollie's discount program. It is worth a little bit of time. It takes to do it. PS I do go to the Automotive section and buy all my bungee cords from Ollie's. Great price with a good variety of sizes. Happy shopping peeps!!
