I arrived just after opening to pick up some things for my daughter…read more Staff were attentive and helpful. I was looking for Native Shampoo in the Body Wash section. A kind team associate directed me to the center just before groceries for shampoo, lotion, etc. I then needed some paper goods where "Charles" was so kind and helpful while stocking items. The store set up has changed in the back but a team member was always within sight for assistance. Many things are of great value. But 4 dish towels for $10 and $20 batteries were not in the budget. Oh, you may want to take your cart for a spin before loading items because my cart grew a personality of its own. I was moving my cart like the Red Bull Sales Rep. Turning the corner like a wide load because the wheels did not have coffee. "I was struggling with the cart along with 3 other customers I encountered. Ms Annette at checkout is a gem as always! Productively good shopping run minus the dysfunctional cart.

That being said, I've come in here a few times now, to find some board games and puzzles, another time to find some towels, and another time for some gift exchange gifts, and haven't had too much issue getting in and out with what I need. I go through self-checkout and don't really engage with staff to find what I need-- tends to be self-explanatory when you follow the signs around and they have the kiosks where you can search in-store now too. For immediate purchases, probably the best place at the best price point to look for things in the city. But if you have some time and the means, best to head to NJ for somewhere that's more pleasant to shop at.

I'll forever call it The Gallery, but it's not The Gallery. I don't think it knows what it is…read more There's a Pandora store, Kate Spade Outlet, and a Nike store for fancier shopping. There's Sephora, Ulta, H&M for run-of- the- mill mall shopping. There are food court kiosks but they are spread out instead of collected in a good court. There are "print your own tee shirt" spots, some local biz, and a dollar store. A movie theater. A co- working space. City Winery. All under one very large roof. That doesn't make for good browsing, imo. I stop in if there's something I need at one store, then leave. I've never stopped for moisturizer at Ulta and decided to visit Burlington or watch a movie. The Gallery was a place to hang out in its heyday, but Fashion District restricts unaccompanied minors. So it often feels empty and lifeless. But if you need a brick-and-mortar store so you can try on before you buy, they might help.

I checked out the mall downtown before seeing a show at City Winery. We had parked in one of the…read morenearby decks surrounding the mall, so we cut through Fashion District on our way to the venue. It's huge. There's even a skyway that connects two building structures that make-up the mall. You have you're mall standards inside like H&M, but also an Apple store. Despite being an urban mall, it's pretty spacious and - in the winter - good place to duck inside for a break from the cold weather.

Today's checkout experience at Walmart was extremely frustrating…read more I walked to the store, shopped for my groceries, and went through checkout. My total was $46.99, and Walmart offered a 1,000-point reward that reduced my total to $36.99. I accepted it, inserted my debit card, and the terminal processed the payment and told me to remove my card. Then I was told the transaction did not go through. I immediately checked my bank account, and it showed a pending $36.99 charge from Walmart Supercenter. I explained that my account was showing the transaction, but I was told I needed to run my card again. The problem was that my available funds were already tied up by the pending charge. I could not simply "try again" when that money was no longer available to me. The situation was not handled with understanding or a clear explanation. The manager eventually canceled the transaction, but that does not instantly return the money to my account. I left Walmart with no groceries after walking there, shopping, and having my items bagged. Customers need better communication and support when payment issues happen. A pending transaction is confusing enough -- being left without your purchase and without access to your funds makes an already difficult situation even worse.

Walmart membership program is a waste of money and time. We bought into their membership program…read moreand every delivery was a headache ending in two air conditioners delivered on the wrong day, left outside in a deluge rainstorm with little to no assistance from Walmart. We were asked to physically tote these beasts to FedEx for a return and were not able to get replaced without paying another 160.00 for the upsurge in prices, probably due to the heat uptick. I try not to use Amazon but we ordered the same air conditioners from them at the original price and it arrived as promised, on time and in good condition. Avoid this Walmart membership at all costs...They are not ready for prime time.

It made my evening to see this Dollar Variety location as I headed towards Broad Street to catch…read morethe SEPTA rail train. I stopped in not only to see what was offered but to also pick-up some well needed essentials like toothpaste, body wash, and fabric conditioner to get me through the weekend while in the city of Philadelphia. Inside, there were items stocked six shelves high that were very organized ranging from many useful items -- body support products, house fans, barbecue grills, air fresheners, cleaning, party, kitchen and school supplies, socks, colorful undergarments, etc. I must say that I did feel a tad overwhelmed while walking the aisles looking for needed essentials because there were so many items. There was a variation of body wash and soap bars shelved! When traveling, it has become my preference to purchase body soap or body wash because I do not know if the hotel I am staying at will have it. Hotels nowadays have the built-in body soap dispenser in their bathrooms along with conditioner, and lotion. In the past, I have stayed at some hotels that have been low on body soap in the dispenser, so because of that I make it a priority to purchase either body wash or soap in case. I was grateful to find an oral care travel kit, which came with a toothbrush and toothpaste inside of a resealable travel bag because we all know with travel, TSA does not allow full tubes of toothpaste through screening. With a travel tube, I not only can use it during my weekend stay but also take it back with me on flight and use it for future travels, which I will likely do. And along with my oral care travel kit, I found and purchased a small container of mouthwash which lasted during my short stay. Another item I found and purchased was Suavitel Complete Fabric Conditioner Hygiene Fresh laundry detergent which always comes in-hand when I am traveling because of its size. I am one that despises traveling with dirty t-shirts, socks, panties, and running shorts inside of my travel bag that also has clean garments inside. So, I try to hand wash those garments inside of the hotel rooms sink which works out well for me. As one who wears stocking wave caps to lay my hair flat, I feel that I can never fail with having more than one, especially being physically active as I am. When out whether it be out-and-about or working out, if I am wearing a baseball cap best believe that I am wearing a stocking wave cap underneath. I found and ended up purchasing a pack which has two stocking wave caps inside. And Dollar Variety had several stocking wave cap styles and colors available, even du-rags! I was pleasantly shocked at the number of hair oils that were shelved near the register. When traveling, keeping my hair oiled is a must! And while waiting to be rung up at the register, I found and purchased a tube of Biotin premium hair oil which due to its size is also on the safe side of not being flagged while going through TSA. Being that my needs were met, I would indeed return to Dollar Variety if visiting downtown Philadelphia and in need of essentials as I mentioned. Happy shopping, and blessings to all that have stumbled upon and read this review. ~ Be obsessively grateful. ~ Thomas G

This particular Joyce Leslie store has succeeded in irritating me every single time I visit. Why,…read moreyou ask? Because they force you to sign the back of your credit card in pencil before they'll swipe it. This, to me, makes absolutely no sense at all. If I stole someone's credit card and it said "SEE ID" on the back of it and I went to use it at Joyce Leslie, they would *not* ask for ID, they would simply have me - the thief - sign the back of the card. "That's our policy" the cashier said at my last visit. In addition to that nonsense, you're pretty much guaranteed to see the the butt crack of at least half of the staff people, and be ignored on at least one occasion. But hey, they've got lots of cheap crap and a terrible return policy, so why not shop til you drop!
