I shopped inside this particular Ollie's store in Washington, PA. This store was a large size and carried a wide variety of merchandise. As I walked around, I saw foods, beverages, pet supplies, hygiene products, beauty products, cleaning products, bedding, rugs, vinyl flooring, vacuum cleaners, fans, kitchenware, books, soil, grass seed, and much more. The prices were OK. I bought one item. The cashier promptly and accurately rang it up.

I shopped in this particular Five Below one time. I saw a selection of merchandise that is similar to what other locations sell. Because of inflation, many products here now cost more than $5 each. Employees did not speak with me much.

Big Lots is a discount retail chain that has locations across the United States. I shopped at this…read moreparticular Big Lots in Washington, PA one time. During my visit, I saw a wide variety of merchandise. I saw couches, rugs, electric fireplaces, clothing, shoes, children's toys, bedding and other linens, cleaning supplies, foods and beverages, health and beauty products, pet supplies, small electronics, holiday decorations, etcetera. I specifically looked for kitchen towels and slippers, but I did not find any in either my preferred color or size. Instead, I ended up buying only a toothbrush, toothpaste, and wrapping paper. I felt surprised that the large roll of wrapping paper was on clearance for only $0.74! The cashier accurately rang up my merchandise, and she gave me change for my small purchase. I must admit that the couches here were comfortable and cost only a few hundred dollars. Perhaps I should buy another couch for my basement...

Big Lots has an impressive selection of everything under the sun that you might want…read more Unfortunately, their inventory management is so poor that if you are looking for something specific they claim to have, you will never find it. Came here with a simple goal: find Archway Molasses Cookies (the original regular kind, not the iced kind), an item their online portal claimed this location had plenty of. When I visited to try to find them, it was a pain to even find where the cookies were in general, let alone the Archway varieties. When I did locate them, the one I wanted was not to be found. I waited in line in the front of the store only to be told that they could not look up my item, and I had to go check with the employee in their furniture area. If that makes sense to you, you're a better man/woman than I. The furniture section employee was kind enough to check to see if there were any in the back, though after ten minutes he returned to say that there weren't any and their numbers must be wrong. So, this begs the question: what is the point of even having an online, customer-facing inventory if the store makes no effort to keep it up to date? This is a problem that seems to be prevalent in many brick and mortar stores these days, which should tell you something about the future of such entities. Given my experience with this, I doubt I will return to a Big Lots any time soon. It shouldn't be this hard for a customer to hunt down a product. Overall: 3.0 stars --- Pros: - Good overall selection of goods, though it was mostly in disarray. - Plenty of parking in the lot outside. - Nice of the furniture section guy to check for us... Cons: - ...though I'm still unclear why the cashier couldn't check when we had waited a while to get up to them. - The Big Lots inventory management system is less than useless, and it takes a conscientious team to make it work.

Prices are moderate. This particular Kohl's store is located in the Strabane Square shopping center. I visited this store one time to shop with a merchandise-credit card that I had previously gotten for returned Christmas gifts. I looked mostly at the women's clothing, slippers, shower curtains, and kitchen towels. The store did not always have my preferred colors or sizes in stock, but I did find three tops and one gift bag to buy. The cashier performed her job OK. I appreciate that she applied a 15% coupon and used part of my merchandise-credit card. Please note that this Kohl's contains a Sephora cosmetics store and also accepts Amazon returns.

The business buys products that other stores cancel, that manufacturers make too much of, and that vendors close out to clear seasonal merchandise. This particular Gabe's store is located in Northgate Plaza shopping center. Examples of its merchandise are clothes, shoes, handbags, suitcases, bedding, pet supplies, children's toys, kitchenware, home decor, packaged foods, beverages, couches, etcetera. As I walked around the store, I noticed that the racks and shelves were full of miscellaneous products through which customers really had to sift. For example, clothing had varied styles and mixed sizes. I almost purchased a pair of Calvin Klein jeans for only $17, but then I noticed that the threads on the logo had several imperfections. I also saw some nice t-shirts that cost only a few dollars each, but the store had either torn or blacked out the brand names on the tags. In the end, I ended up buying nothing. Nonetheless, I will give this store a neutral rating. I think that people who are on a budget can find good bargains here.
