99 Cent Only Stores

I normally don’t leave reviews at all good or bad
But Jesus lord!
I went in on a Monday night at 7:30. The cashier was beyond rude. She had a snotty ass attitude and was constantly rolling her eyes at people. Throwing my items in the bag and throwing it on the counter. She over heard me say I was planning to leave a Unilocal review and was covering her name tag. Little did she know her name is printed on the receipt. Her name was Elizabeth. I deal with customers on a daily basic. I understand if you are having a bad day. But still have basic manners. BASIC CUSTOMER SERVICE SKILLS!
(Hi did you find everything ok/​thank you etc)
I get its the 99cent store, this is no high end grocery store. Please save people the trouble of having to take time out of their day to write a review.
If you don’t like your job quit!
Find a new one. One that your Going to enjoy
One that your going to be nice to customers

I just left the store… Everything was ok, except for my cashier Rosalba… She was very rude to an older lady that was ahead of me. The old lady asked her if they accepted the card she had and the cashier responded with an «I don’t know, swipe it so you can find out» then the lady did but didn’t know what to do next. She asked the cashier what button to press and Rosalba said «I don’t know I can’t see because I’m on this side» she would response with a bad attitude. After a while the cashier went around but only to press the cancel button and returned to the cashier, The poor lady ended up paying cash because she didn’t get any help from the cashier… Rosalba was about to leave because she turned off her number on the cashier so I guess she was being so rude because she wanted to leave already… None of that justifies her attitude towards that elder lady… Today is 1−08÷16 time on my receipt says 1:43pm. And the name on the receipt says Rosalba. Please teach your employees how to treat their customers, especially the older people!

I like coming here when I want something cheap to eat, especially for salad — $ 1 for a bag of lettuce is such a good deal! I give this location 3 stars mainly because I’m comparing it to the other 99 cent only stores. This one isn’t as big as the others, and this one shares a parking lot with the Smart & Final, so sometimes parking lot can be pretty crowded and is a little bit of a hazard.
Overall this is a good location.

I love this place good bargain the other day i just had a question about buying something as a wholesale wich my friend had done so before and she had no problem and there was only 2 cashiers open (just like walmart has lots of cashiers and only one or two open) and i asked both of them and they both just told me «IDK» cant they call a manager and ask!!!

Gotta strike a couple of stars of this place’s rating. Still a zoo. Plenty of unattended children opening and playing with the toys. The store is messy and definitely in need of some organizing.

They should have more workers working. I went at like 8:45 they were still open but there were really long lines. They have a variety of seasonal stuff there. But over all my experience was exceptional:)

I freaking love this store. I’ve been coming here for years… Over a decade? It’s pretty big and has SO many things, from pet food (I come once a week or every two weeks for Avoderm and cat treats that are like triple priced at Petco) to fresh produce and frozen foods. They always have things like bagged organic spinach which I’ve seen at target for $ 3.99 to fancy coconut water that is $ 4 at Fresh N’ Easy. I also found some awesome cheer shorts, shirts, underwear, movies, hair accessories, plants, pots, kitchen stuff, a nice puffy bath math, GOD! endless awesome things. They constantly have merchandise from Target too. Only a few crappy things: the very ghetto customers that are rude and have their offspring running wild, and the occasional useless, angry looking employee (yeah… I can’t really blame them). I never really had an issue with parking, I park on the side of the store, not in the front.

This is not the only location I go visit as I always like to get cheap deals to fit my budget. I get food boxes, picture frames, gift wrappers and food for use. I really think the price helps a lot families out there!

Always something interesting to buy just for a buck. Too bad fruits are now by the lb price rather than 99 cent a bag.

finally a 99cent store near home. i dont have to go to montebello anymore. can they bring back the p-​nuttles? =(so yea they have coconut water there that’s what i go there for.

How can you go wrong at a .99 cent store? I always come here for those car/​travel tissue dispenser and refills (that thing that fits on the car visor), and silly holiday décor (Halloween, Thanksgiving, etc.)
The parking situation, though… ugh! They share a lot with Smart and Final, Sally’s Beauty Supply and AutoZone… driving around trying to find a parking is «every man/​woman for themselves»! Proceed with caution!

I wished that this particular store would move closer to my house, but I’m around the area often anyway, so maybe I snag good stuff due to frequent visits to this store. I found wall vinyl decals here last week. Large poster board side, with two sheets of designs. I bought one to try out and I loved how it spruced up my room. I came back today and they were all gone. =(. So, you see, you find some occasional very random stuff here (I guess it goes for the same at other locations, but I love this store and every once in a while there’s really good stuff, like the frozen Sambazon acai berry smoothie packs that were tucked at the very bottom of the freezer. Sad that no one seemed to buy them (except me) until they expired and eventually taken off the shelf. I think it’s the easiest place to shop, and in fact, I think this store got me into cooking new and different things. Store is very spacious and plenty of parking.

This place is convenient near Mom’s. Only irritation is the parking situation. Park far becuz it’s tight! Y’all share 2 – 3 other major stores.

Being a teacher (both my wife and I) this is a place we hit when we need to get things on the cheap. It’s been said that the 99 is a teachers best friend. There have been times when you get something here, and you could have gotten it somewhere else for cheaper, but come on. it’s 99 cents!
This particular location has the same general setup as the others I’ve been to, but this one is definitely the best one I’ve been to. Much of it has to do with the fact that its the closest one to home.
Parking here can sometimes get tricky, and getting in or out can be a challenge depending on which way you’re trying to go when you leave the parking lot. So some advice, exit on the Valley side of the lot by Autozone… that way you can go East or West on Valley, and turn to go North or South (maybe East/​West) on Romona.
