Kmart

Always smells like cheap plastic. Every time I come in, which is rare, they never have what I am looking for. Prices on things like toys are much higher than target. Not to mention everything seems to be disheveled through the store.
Go to target.

I have mixed feelings about Kmart. I don’t understand why they can’t clean and organize this store? Aren’t there specialists in retail design that can help pretty the displays and make the store more attractive? Some thrift stores look better.
I feel bad because we have gone in here several times looking for various things and they never seem to have what we want. I really don’t want to see them go out of business. That would be sad. I actually feel sorry for them so it’s kind of like mercy shopping.
I don’t understand why Auburn opts for this than for Costco?
As another reviewer mentioned, it’s a blast from the past and makes me think of the old «five and dime» stores (which younger people won’t even know what they are). However. I don’t remember those stores having as much cheap crap, plastic parts, pleather, nylon clothing, and made in China everywhere.
Come on Kmart, shape up or ship out.

The customer service here is the worst. Without fail, every single time I shop here there is some issue at the register and the transaction has somee problem. From the cashier not being properly trained to the cash register computer forzenup and somehow charged my card twice, yet the balance showed that I had not paid at all. A couple times a year I swear that I will never shop here again… but then some «shop your way» reward bonus draws me back in and T check out I am quickly reminded why I swore it off last time. PS I have been shopping at this same exact Kmart store since I was a child back in the 1980’s except back then it was «the» one big depatment store in the whole area unless we talked our Mom into driving all the way down to Citrus Heights. :) so I do have decades of experience shopping here and even after all the poor customer service experiences I have had over the past 5 years, I do have many memories here and would be sad ifnit were to close.

Not sure why people are giving bad reviews. Been here a ton of times and everyone is nice and I generally find things cheaper than Target and Home Depot across the street.

LOUSY assistance when the store was otherwise unoccupied.
I blew a tire while riding my bike and needed a 700×28 size tire + inner tube. After searching for my items, I found the tube but not a tire. Walking around I found a clerk and ask she call an associate to that area; she did and no-​one showed after 15 mins. I saw another clerk and again requested an associate. AGAIN, no-​one showed after 10 minutes. Had it not been for the fact that both tire and tube were blown, I’d have left after looking for myself.
As I was leaving the first clerk asked if I got the assistance I needed. Said NO… and will not bother buying it there if someone were to bring it to the register for me.

I’m reading the reviews for this location after visiting it and I’m kinda surprised. I received great customer service today. The lady who rung me up saw on my receipt that I had five bucks in rewards that would expire today. So I went up to customer service and I received a price adjustment. I found the store well stocked but I wasn’t tripping over things in the aisles. I was treated nicely by both employees who helped me, I will definitely be shopping here again.

I walked in going to pay a bill and I went to customer service and there were 2 girls standing there and not a single one greeted or bothered to help me. I went to a regular line hoping to pay it there, instead I wasted my time waiting in line to be sent back to customer service.

OK… Remember that crazy Great Aunt who got you those sweet Scooby sheets that so rocked your bunkbed? The one who would like let you ride a dirt bike around her farm and not tell your Mother? Yes, that amazing woman who smelled of moth balls and Tussy shopped here. And when she got really old, you didn’t go see her because her house was 90 degrees and her mangy poodle kept giving your leg the love sponge. Now she’s gone and you feel like a real jackass, eh?
Well, that crazy housedress wearing auntie is basically this store: Visit your youth before it’s GONE forever! (and you will miss this place; trust me)
This is the last of the old school KMarts. And it is, simply: The Grand Dame.
And know what else makes this crazy old bitch so lovely: She ain’t Wal-​Mart.
WAY too much class.
Seriously, I LOVE this store. First, you can actually park — get this — near the store. Secondly, you can actually shop without having to deal with the Great Hoards of Unwashed and their Fetal-​Alcohol Syndrome Screaming Larve. The prices are good, shelves are stocked and the sales often decent. Plus it’s never crowded. Which is EXACTLY why you MUST shop here. Because soon it may be gone and you’ll feel really really bad.
Cashiers are friendly! Service is great and I loves me the reward points program. And it’s all wrapped up in a vintage box that isn’t 14 football fields long. Did I mention no screaming out of control redneck larve?
Please folks: SAVE THE K!
Lost one star as a result of things not always being clearly priced. But again, this is K-Mart…you can afford anything. Even that Jacquiline Smith duvet cover. I promise.

For a K-​Mart, it was pretty clean and decent. Any Redneck would love this place. Purchased some items for our son who just started in the CCC. Good service from everyone.

Very happy with the customer service here as the cashiers seem good natured and friendly. I like this store, sure it’s a throwback to the 70s or 80s, but hey, I got news for you, the 70s and 80s were better decades than this one! I am not shoulder-​to-​shoulder with some other shopper when I come here, and I am able to have a pleasant and quiet shopping experience. I think you can find a lot of the things you need here, and I opt to go here as opposed to Wal Mart or Target. Prices seem about right, not high. Some good deals on men’s clothing. Pretty good stock of merchandise in most all departments, and lots of goodies to be found. I like this Kmart and when I am in Auburn, I try to visit this store.

K-​mart in Auburn, California is another example of poor hiring. It is really a hit and a miss as far as customer service goes. K-​mart hires teen-​agers who are so rude. The managers aren’t much better.
Tear down this store and fire everyone in it… then build something that people would like to shop in and hire friendly people. I would give them a minus star if you had it Unilocal!!!

WOW, what a sad and depressing/​gloomy place. Walking into this store, you promptly get thrown back to the 70’s.
What on earth is Kmart doing? Bottom of the barrel products shipped right from China.
The best thing Kmart can do is close this store, tear down the building and put in a Sam’s Club or Costco

I decided to give K-​Mart an extra star, because they sell a TV signal amplifier (a common electronics accessory) for ¹⁄₃ the cost of the same product at Best Buy!
My original comments still apply, but this latest purchase confirms that K-​Mart will always fill a need for inexpensive consumer goods in a recessionary economy.

All I have to say is that the Auburn K-​mart is what gives Auburn a bad name. This place is white trash central! I won’t even go into this store anymore. It is so out-​dated and I don’t think I really need to say anything about the quality of employees. Half the stuff in this store is already broken!
