99 Cents Only Store

There manager need to check there cashier from this stores cause I saw something that was stealing, middle Easter woman had a full shopping cart of stuff and the girl did not even check them or even count them at all and her total was $ 30 yeah right she had at list $ 80-​$ 100 or more, check your cashier manager cause there doing dirty things in there.

I love this store. Always a good deal
and lets emphasize good deals. If you come early morning the store is nicely organized
and shelves are well stocked
Great finds for birthday parties or craft projects
Lines do get a painfully along at peak hours when people get out of work

There are always interesting stuff here. The service is actually good! I stop here once in a while and find tons of great stuff.

Maybe it was because it was early, maybe the sun was shining a little brighter, maybe we were just out of the normal hood… whatever it was it made the experience at a regular old 99 cents store pretty freaking awesome!
The girl and I wanted to kill a little time before watching the boy play soccer. We grabbed a coffee and saw this little gem on our way back to the field. I needed to pop in for a big gift bag. Yeah just a gift bag, 40 dollars later we had to drag ourselves out or we would have missed the boys game.
The aisles were clean and organized, color coordinated items made the store very pleasing to the eye. I ended up finding so much more than a large gift bag, toys, kitchen items, candy and my personal favorite santa pants that hold wine bottles.
I’m pretty sure 99 cent stores in the hood don’t hold a candle to this spot. If you’re in the area at 8am go here!

Basic 99¢ store, where everything is 99¢. I give a 3 star review only because the customer service there was terrible. After making my purchase I asked kindly for change and I was refused and told «We don’t give change.» Other then that, the store was a mess. Most would say «What do you expect, it’s a 99¢ store». My only reply would be,” I have never seen a Dollar Tree in this condition”. :)

This store has an AMAZING and very different selection than all the other 99 cent only stores. They also have a fresh produce and food selection. My only complaint is. why do the cashiers not know the return/​exchange policy? They looked at me like I was speaking a foreign language when I asked them. They literally said «What does that mean?» when I asked them what the policy was for returning or exchanging an item. Seriously? If it weren’t for that, I would give this location 5 stars without hesitation. Train your employees with complete store knowledge!

I really like this store! It’s a bit dirty, and messy, some of the shopping carts are really Eh. But I can see past that when im getting a good deal! Name brands all over, lots of different things for home, I can definitely tell this store gets a ton of business. I’ll be here more often.

This is a great store… nsme brand items well within the date codes. some have complained about the store being dirty, well at days end its been used and abused… sure it’s going to look bad.
I shop when they open at 8am and its perfect, clean and well stocked, the employees do a great job overnight making it presentable.
I can purchase Hunt’s catsup 24 oz for 99 cents with long lasting date cides, a real bargain for a catsup eater!!!
The store has weekly name brand items. Don’t expect to find the same items the next day on popular items, they sell quick… buy enough. It really is a hit and miss but that’s the fun of it. The thrill of the HUNT!
They have a very hugh candy section the entire length of the store… popular name brand candy bar’s. This candy section is always stocked with every brand of candy you want all the time!
It really go’s to show you how much candy is overpriced at ⁷⁄₁₁ and grocery stores when all candy at the 99 cent store can be purchased for 99.9 cents, yes look at your receipt. LoL
NAMED BRAND CANDY, ALL BRANDS!
TAKE TIME AND LOOK AROUND.!!
SAVE SOME HARD EARNED CASH!“
Just a word of caution, the parking lot is on a slope in some areas and runaway shopping carts will pick up speed and damage your car. DON’T PARK ON THE SLOPES OR AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SLOPES.
This is a true story, in 2009 I parked well away from other vehicles towards the bottom of the slope towards main street. I was concerned about door dings… I never once considered runaway carts.
Seriously when I returned a high speed cart had struck my right rear quarter panel, and skidded down the right side of my new car, I guess some careless customer hadn’t returned the empty cart to the cart corral and it must of started rolling at the top of the parking lot and struck my car at what ever speed a empty cart can travel… I’m not kidding the cost of the repair was $ 890.00, I had several estimates and that was the cheapest out of three. The cart dented and scratched my car more then anybody including myself could image, I found the cart on it’s side turned over next to the car, Grrrrrrrrrr… that 890 bucks would of purchased a lot of ketchup and candy.
Boy was I mad… I learned my lesson!
Hell, I still shop there, I’m over it now, I have a different car now anyway…
THAT’S IT! !!!

Some people are scared of 99 cent stores… I’m totally not one of those people. For those who aren’t familiar with this brick and mortar heaven of goodies, it’s a place where you can purchase 99% of their items for just 99 cents. What’s not to love about that? Need a apple corer/slicer…no problem. Need a last minute costume for Halloween… no problem. Need some cheap ice for the bonfire… no problem. I try to stop here for last minute things before I go to the mall and spend 10x more. This place usually has what I’m looking for.

What can I say? It’s a 99cents store… there ARE some fantastic deals (especially on wrapping paper & printed boxes, stocking stuffers, etc., at Christmas)… but frankly I call it the «$ 100 Store.» That’s about what I end up spending every time I go («oh, this looks neat, do I need it? No. But what the heck it’s only .99 cents…» My bad).
It doesn’t have the great produce at this location like the one in Encinitas (with a parking lot filled with Mercedes & Lexus cars, haha)… but it is clean, the staff is friendly and helpful and there are ALWAYS great deals on name brands. Just leave your credit or debit card at home and take only as much cash as you are willing to spend. :) Fun & helpful store…
P. S.: and I LIKE the fact that they are CLOSED on Thanksgiving and Christmas, and close early on Christmas Eve. Listen up Walmart, Target, etc…

Visited this location on 6−12−14
Store was well stocked, clean and inviting.
Great prices and much to offer including frozen foods and produce.
Friendly cashiers and good customer service.

Do not buy milk here!!! They probably do not store it properly! So far I have had three gallons go bad on me well before the expiration date. Something is either wrong with the fridge unit or it’s not properly transported. You guys need to fix that before people get sick! Also this store has gone down in the past few years it used to be the 99 cents ONLY store what happened? Now they sell things more than 99 cents. Plus they recently installed larger shelving units but it’s disorganized chips across from the shampoo? That’s random it’s almost like they stopped caring and just slapped it together and called it a day.

Can you really just come to the dollar store and only spend a dollar? I think not! I always seem to have 10 items give or take. This one is big and they have a pretty good selection of items. I got 3 nice brown placemats, cute wrapping paper, strawberries (yes they even have some great looking produce), I got household products, etc. I didn’t see much in the way of cosmetics/​beauty products which I was disappointed since I always like to look at that section the most. All in all my mom and I had a fun time, it was hot that day and of course no AC since they need to keep costs down, but we had a blast.

I attend seminary here, and when I first started going to this particular 99 cent store it was very good, clean, and service was ok. Today I went and the back of the store smelled like urine. Here’s the catch the back of the store is where the store the produce. I don’t know what’s going on, but as long as I am out here I am going to another 99 cent store and not the one on main. The smell was sickening.

WORST! WORST!!! WORST!!! customer service I have ever encountered!!! I went in there to purchase three 2 liters of soda and one pack of gum for my five year old son who happened to be with me. There were two registers open and literally 8 – 9 people in each line. So after waiting in line for approximately 15 minutes (no exaggeration) I get to the front of the line and the nice Chaldean girl rings me up. Mind you the Chaldean gentleman in front of me paid with half his EBT card (really???) and the rest a fifty dollar bill had no problems at all. I get to the front and proceed to pay with a $ 100.00 bill. The girl looks at me and asked If I had anything smaller. I said no I don’t use credit cards and I don’t have an EBT card. Disgusted with me, she goes and gets the manager and brings her over. The manager doesn’t even look at me just talks to the cashier in Arabic and the manager proceeds to tell her I need to purchase 5 more items and then she can break the $ 100.00 bill. I said NO, I don’t need to purchase anything and I’ll take my business elsewhere. So unprofessional and I will never shop at this store again. And by the way I went to a mini mart down the street and had no problem breaking a hundred dollar bill.

They have a clean store that’s well stocked. These guys were open during the Black out that was very nice I them.

Good deals but absolutely disgusting bathroom. I can’t believe they would even send a customer to use a restroom that is that disgusting. It was so dirty the health department should visit there. There was feces on the toilet all over and trash was all over the floor. It looked like the walls had not been cleaned ever! There is no way I would ever as a store manager want a customer to see that bathroom. It would of been better if they said they had no bathroom for customers. Totally unacceptable.

They sell huge boxes of condoms and du rags for 99 cents.
Enough said.

With the oncoming recession we all need to seek ways to keep living our continuing comfortable lifestyles– the 99 cent store is already starting to see the effects of the economy. Its always packed when I go there. If I need holiday decorations or last minute gifts this is the place. If your creative you can even make great dinners with the ingredients you find there (hell I’ve made crab cakes with the stuff I’ve found there). So don’t worry, the 99 cent store will save your pocket!

Bring me old fond memories… the first time I went to any 99cents only store were back in year 2000. Then the second and the third trip were in July 2005 and October 2005 respectively. Hence this past summer of July 2008 I made yet another stop. Each 99 cents store have different variety of stuffs you can purchase at a bargain. Cant help it if its only 99 cents per item.
Since we were staying in El Cajon for the family visit this past summer, this 99 cents store indeed have the stuffs I need for snacks, certain things I forgot to pack for the trip etc etc.
If only they can have 99 cents stores in Colorado…
