Big Lots

I may or may not be addicted to home décor, candles and pet stuff. Okay, totally addicted. First step is admitting right?!
So, this place is a total enabler but on the cheap! Candles are always a great deal here. Usually you can find some for under two dollars in the bathroom /​air freshener section. They are usually a season behind, but seriously vanilla is vanilla, even if the removable wrapper has snowflakes or cookies on it.
We have two kitties and the toys here are also a good cheap find. Let’s be real here, they’ll play with a cardboard box or toilet paper roll, but a catnip mouse is far more presentable when company comes over.
Cleaning supplies, home deco like frames and kitchen jazz, and seasonal items like garland or inflatable floaties can also be found at good deals.
Be ready for a slight way at the register as they usually operate on a skeleton staff, but hey, you can look at impulse items!
Overall: A
Enabler store with cheap deals.

If there is such a thing as a high-​end Big Lots store this is the one. It will remind you of a regular grocery store, combined with a department store. You can buy food items, electronics, decorations for the home, all kinds of stuff. Obviously stuff that you do not need.
I came in today looking for a new charger for my iPhone. I found one, it’s cable is 6 feet long.
Like other Unilocalers had mentioned in their reviews, it’s definitely worth the stop from time to time, and just have a look. You never know what you may find, that you don’t need.
Enjoy.

I’ve always been a fan of Big Lots. It’s fun to see what new food and snacks they have in stock. We’ve bought quite a bit of furniture there too. If you’re not picky about brands, this is the store for you.
**PROTIP** If you can, wait until 20% off events to buy furniture. It’s often included.

Near to my home I like to stop in here from time to to peruse. Good deals and close out types of prices. Sometimes the selection can be random and changes often. I find myself buying snacks a lot here because of the good prices. I love the bargain movie bin to beef up the horror movie collection (; They do carry some home goods and have an outdoor equipment area and even some furniture as well. They also have some coolers with random frozen and refrigerated goods. I stop in here to waste time but always leave with something!

Shopped here for the first time in a really long time. I have to say that I was really impressed with how organized and tidy the store is. If you are on a budget, this is a great place for just about everything you can think of with great price points. I was on a hunt for childrens toys especially arts and crafts items for donation to a childrens hospital. They had a huge display of $ 5 kits so I was able to buy more than I planned on. Score!
I browsed around most of the store while I was there. The food shelves are fully stocked and with a mix of name brand and off brand items. Great place to find that unique spice/​ingredients that you’ll probably only use once– for cheaper than Publix! I was impressed with their section of International foods. Nice selection and prices. One thing that was new is that they also have a refrigerated/​freezer aisle with some dairy products as well as frozen items.
Other sections to check out are health and beauty items, home and kitchen goods, outdoor items, pet items and even the furniture section towards the back.
The girl that rang up my items was super friendly and even looked up my rewards # from ages ago. She couldn’t find it with my cell phone but ended up finding it with my email address. So if you forget your card, remember that they can look it up so you don’t miss out on those rewards points. And the store also takes Snap/​EBT cards and have big banners throughout reminding customers. They do not take manufacturers coupons because of the already low prices.

I really like browsing in Big Lots stores. This location was very typically of what I expected to find. They carry a wide variety of articles (furniture, décor, cleaning supplies, snacks, toys, electronics, etc.) for very good prices. The store was clean and organized. The customer service was good.

My experience was good, we found a few greatly needed things at good prices. Being Big Lots, there is a great variety but it isn’t a consistent variety, if that makes sense.
After wandering around for about 40 minutes and picking up things we didn’t know we actually needed (as in «Oh wow, look! Lets get this!») and a few things we came for we were ready.
I hesitated between a 3 and 4 star review and it lost that one star due to a Cashier who was none too happy and complaining to ours about the busy day. Trust me, I have seen crazy stores — just go to the outlets in Orlando on a Saturday. This was NOTHING.

You can usually find some really good deals on things at this store. They have a large inventory of items here. We have gotten some nice deals on patio items here.

They always have great deals at Big Lots and the staff is very nice. There is always lots of parking available. Several other Big Lots that I have been to are messy and run down and this one is not! They now have dairy products and frozen items as well.

I love how much $ I save here

I love this Big lots!
I go into this store at least 3 times a month.
The prices are great and you can buy everything you need all in one store.
They have all kinds of things for iPads, iPods and such all at a great prices.
They even have wine!
If you get something on clearance be sure that they give you the clearance price sometimes it will scan on the regular price so always be sure to check.
It is also a great idea to sign up for their rewards card it is awesome when you reach your 10^th shopping time you can use your 20% off when they have everything at 20% of that’s a total of 40% off you can’t beat that deal!

Big Lots has an awesome selection of random things like jigsaw puzzles, so it’s a great place to walk around when you’re looking for a gift for the impossible-​person-​to-​buy-​for. The prices are so cheap, and although my recent trip here was the day before Christmas, the long line moved very quickly.
This is a great place to pick up anything from canned goods and cereal to dog toys and kitchen accessories.

This is by far my favorite Big Lots around Central Florida because they have more stuff and more furniture for sale, they also have a big selection and a clean store.
I cant say to much about the staff and never got asked even walking by a few employees that seemed kind of mad for being there.
The day I went (twice) the store was pretty busy but one of the days I went the lines were pretty long to pay for your stuff and they had at least three registers open.
Over all I like this store and its clean and well organized plus just like all the Big Lots they have some really good deals and you can find lots of good Christmas or birthday gifts for just about anyone.
Only thing about this location is maybe more registers open and friendlier employees. Four stars for this location of Big Lots in Orlando.

Whenever I come into town to visit my friend, we often hit Big Lots. Especially on the days when they have their friends and family sale. Great deals can be found on those days. And even when they’re crowded, the lines at the registers keep moving.

Since I’ve already come out of the closet about my love of the Dollar Tree, I may as well express my admiration for Big Lots on East Colonial.
I’ve been to other Big Lots, but this one excels. Today I bought a pretty big bag of quinoa for a surprisingly low price. And even though I rarely buy DVDs anymore, I couldn’t resist buying Milk with Sean Penn, on widescreen for three bucks.
Occasionally I find good bargains on canine treats too!

This Big Lots is better than any other branch. It is clean, has a lot of merch, and they have an expanded selection of international clearance sale food. It is still a Big Lots so it has the budget feel, but I have been to 3 other branches in Central Florida and this is what I would recommend for Big Lots shoppers.
The workers seem weird though, but I don’t mind. The other branches have weirder workers, nastier stores, and more of a ghetto vibe.

Lisa D pretty much wrote my review. Really isn’t busy at all and has tons of stuff from food, houseware, furniture, garden stuff. It’s the the dollar store of target. If that even makes sense. However, since this is a discount store, for some reason the customer service follows along with discounted customer service. The employees are not so helpful and just lack basic politeness. Sad, really.
I do go once a month tho just to grab some basics and cute décor for the house!

Imagine I used to make fun of someone for shopping here. But one day I walked in here and it changed my life!!!
I’m not sure if the prices really are any cheaper than average, but the fact that all of their price tags are red must mean it is right??? I think what I love most about this joint is they have a little bit of everything and it’s never busy. They have some bomb diggity decorations as well.
I’m a huge fan and I’m glad I took that first step in.

Big Lots is my JAM. I love it. Now, that being said… some locations can be kinda ghetto. As in messy, sketchy, and kinda borderline «dirty.» Well this location is not like that at all. It’s fairly new and is kept very clean and organized. You can find some excellent deals here. They basically get items from other stores that were «closeout» a.k.a. the original store was unable to sell.
I love to go here over the holidays because they have great stocking stuffer ideas.
Other highlights and good finds at Big Lots:
Hubby got 3 golf clubs there last night; popular brands — 80% off of retail.
I get my eyeliner and mascara here. Paid $ 1.50 for what I’d pay 8 bucks for at the drugstore.
Dingo Bones for my dogs — half of what I’d pay at other places.
Love me some Big Lots!

Big Lots is like a cross between the Dollar Store and Super Target. They have a wide variety of things to choose from at really good prices.
This particular store is brand new and very clean, well laid out, and a nice variety to pick from.
After another trip I will give you all a better update, but so far looking good.
