99 Cents Only Store

It’s a discount store. don’t expect service like you’re shopping at Nordstrom or some other place. For the price and selection this place is really nice. Know your prices for goods though, not everything you can buy here is worth it. Also be sure to check the EXP DATES on any food items you are buying! The store itself is always packed with goodies and is nice and clean.

Seriously amazing. I mainly come here for the incredibly cheap produce, but I always leave with all kinds of stuff including home goods and small toys. I can’t believe the deals. Every time I leave, I feel like I robbed the place. ;p People complain about the parking and long lines. It’s a very small price to pay… just like the price for all the goods you take home.

Unprofessional Folks !!!
2 weeks back we asked a store representative if they fill helium air for balloons bought from other store, and the person replied yes stating different pricing models. We called today to confirm the same, and we were told same information. However, when we took our balloons the person there replied that they don’t do external balloons, and this has been 5 year policy. Moreover, the response was in rude and unprofessional manner. So we have 2 issues with this store:
1. Rude staff
2. Inconsistent information amongst different employees of same store
We will never buy anything from this store again :(

There were a some things that I thought was inconvenient and if you’re planning to go here, you should be aware.
1. The road. There’s a median along the main road the is only accessible by one way. Although, if you are going eastbound from Stevens Creek, there’s a left turn you could use but if you’re planning to go eastbound coming out of the store, you have to make a U-​turn.
2. Small parking lot. You have to circle around a couple times or wait for someone to pull out to park. Another option is to street park somewhere nearby and walk there.
3. Long lines. When I went here, there were only two open registers when there were over 8 people waiting and these people buy in bulk so you could see everyone’s frustration.
What I like about this is that you get what you pay for. You can honestly save money here especially if you’re looking for cleaning supplies, snacks, and groceries.

Good selection of goods, but that’s where it stops! The employees could careless about the long lines at the check out. Often one register is open and the line runs back to the frozen foods! Poor management! Need a cart runner. Employees need to stop talking about what they did last night and focus on the task ahead.

I enjoy coming to this store. I love there products like there lime bags, candy selection, produce and so on. They have the actual name brand chips and drinks and not select like other stores. Which ever holiday thats near they always have items. Covers and chargers for your iPhones. You name it they have it.
Parking maybe be a hassle sometimes. Not everything is .99 anymore. Make sure you ask the cashier at the register if your not sure.

I love this store! I never stepped into one or a dollar store until recently. I love the produce, spices, cat food, 2 for .99, yogurt, Jiff cups, frozen produce & fresh in the frig. Cases. Bleach, comet, soap, canned goods are great too. Watch carefully what you get. Some yogurt is close to expiration dates, but you can’t beat Yoplait Greek yogurt, 6 oz for .25 per cup.

This place is not only a life saver, but like a hidden gem of San Jose. I first want to start off by saying that the produce is like straight from the farm. Its fresh & healthy looking. When you sometimes are living from pay check to pay check you need all the breaks that you can get. You can feel like going to a 99 cent store that you’re compromising quality for low prices. Not at all the case here. My new motto is; «Why pay more than $ 1.00.!» if you don’t have to. I have gotten the most beautiful artichokes, mangos, avocados, mushrooms, salad stuff, wonderful unique yogurts, frozen fruit for smoothies, pet food, beautiful decorations for all seasons/​holidays, reading glasses, house & car cleaners etc. when you only have twenty bucks to your name & you need food/​supplies then, that’s 20 new items for you. I even bought some of those really soft, soft, furry socks there and they were fine after I washed them. I saw last time they had some pretty cute undies. I have gotten car cleaner/​polish, crazy glue, candy. They have nice baskets, candy & great decorations to create gifts for your friends & family. Now when I need some fresh farm like veggies or fruits I will go there. I give this life saver store Five Stars * * * * *
THANK YOU 99 CENT STORE FOR HELPING OUT WITH ALL MY SAVINGS. Don’t get me wrong I do also like Safeway & Whole foods when I got a lot of money to spend, but now I would actually prefer to save as much money as I can. SO THANK YOU AGAIN 99 CENT STORE. I LOVE YOU MERCHANDISE A LOT!

No. No. No. A thousand times no. The lines are way too long here, and it takes forever to check out — not on what would presumably be peak hours like the weekend. I went at 2:00 PM on a Wednesday, and the wait time was ridiculous. The small, cramped parking lot cannot accommodate all the customers. I witnessed two people getting into it over a parking space. The selection is comparable to Dollar Tree, but I’d say Dollar Tree is slightly better. Do yourself a favor and go there.

Came here for the 99 cent Christmas Tree. Waited in line for 2 ½ hours in the cold. There were about 40 – 45 people in front of me-​including children. The advertisement said one tree per household. The employees were giving wristbands to all of the children in the family to get their own tree. Myself and the many people behind me were told there were no wristbands and trees left after hours of waiting. The paper said it was for the first 99 customers-​there were no more than 50 in line. The lady who came out and yelled at everyone to leave if they didn’t have a wristband was extremely rude as well. Very disappointed. Will not be returning.

Not the greatest dollar store but just okay. They oddly sell food and candy here and they definitely look old or unappetizing. The products they have are okay but you can’t find much. They have party, beauty, car accessories, and all that here but I leave empty handed.

What can you say about stuff for a dollar? Good deal even though they do stuff now like milk, produce and oil etc… That’s more than $ 1!
Lots of stuff to choose from but they don’t restock, organize or clean Well.
The thing that I knotice most is people hate that there are always lines! they never have enough people working, it’s No wonder things get stolen from there all the time (you see the open packages all over every day).

I like this place a lil better than dollar tree at least food wise! cooped two boxes of non expired dark chocolate cheerios and some pilsbury 4^th of july ready to bake cookies for $ 1! a box of 4 crescent roll cans for $ 1 nearing expiration but just popped in the freezer till its ready to use. good deals, fresh produce, and real brand items!

Great store. You can find so many different things here. all for $ 0.99 or under! I stocked up on cleaning supplies, office supplies, and even found some great food things to take home and make a salad with. Seriously, they have soooo much stuff this place is great.
I would give them a 5 star but some of the produce was… questionable. I am not sure if they have the proper cooling system and it seemed like some of the veggies that were supposed to be crisp were limp and soft.
This is definitely a place where you have to keep your eyes peeled. There is so much to look at, it is worth it going down each isle, you never know what great deal you will find! I will be back!

A hidden gem!!!
So I always come to use the bathroom while shopping down the street at Crossroads Trading Co. and had a craving for some gum. While the bathroom is quite nasty, it works.
I ventured into the store in search of some chicle (gum) and holy smokes!
Not only did this place have one of the most extensive candy aisles I have ever seen, but also party planning supplies, air fresheners, toilet items, and even a substantial array of groceries including fruits, veggies, and get this… Chobani yogurt!
Also, the people at the counter are actually surprisingly friendly. The woman was quite entertained by my yammering about my fascination with the one cent tax on gum (apparently it is considered a food… ummmm yah I will have to talk to the gov. about that one).
While I don’t think I would shop here on a regular basis, it is dirt cheap and perfect for planning a party. Plus, it’s just fun to scour the aisles to see what you can get!
In summary, come here for party planning, if you need a few cheap random groceries, or for funsies!

This place is great. Groceries, toiletries, school supplies, kitchen tools, car tools, cleaning supplies, party supplies, etc etc. They have it all! And all for 99 cents? What?!
I like to prep for when SHTF (shit hits the fan)… So I like to stock up on TP, paper towels, bar soap, dish soap, canned foods, trash bags, pain pills, etc. BUT, I like to do so in a cheap manner LOL… because when shit DOESN’T hit the fan, I didn’t shell out too much $… and when it does, I plan to survive it with my stock pile and AR15 (harhar)

This place is right down the street from my house and I love coming here to get some of the basics.
It is ALWAYS packed and has super long lines, but it is very convenient for me.
I come here for two Liter Sodas, spices, bar soap, dish soap, and some canned goods.
I price check a lot of the things that I buy in large quantities and this place is a definite bargain.
Their spices are only a $ 1 and taste exactly the same as the ones your pay $ 5 plus for at Safeway, and are bigger too. Their bar soap beats Target and Walmart prices if you buy a them in packs, or even individually (they are the big sized ones not travel size). The dish soap beats everyone’s prices by a dollar, and so do their canned food items.
The have refrigerated items, milk, and eggs too. They also have the Pillsbury rolls and biscuits there, but they are half the size of the normal ones that you would find in Safeway. This is great because I only cook for two, and most of the time a lot of it gets wasted because you have to cook them all, or they will go bad. Their cases of water and milk are not a dollar, but are convenient to have there since so many people ask for them.
Overall a great place for a bargain.

I love the 99 Cent store. I can not give them 5 stars for a few reasons.
The produce is great sometimes and is wilting other times.
They have 2 checkers no matter when you go in so the lines are long. That didn’t use to be the case. They use to have all check stands open when the first opened.
Some stuff they have is crap. Others are top quality. YOU HAVE TO LOOK!
However. Everything is 99 cents except a gallon of milk. They sometimes have insane deals. I once got Banana Boat sunscreen for .99. I get Organic Romaine Lettuce for .99… when they have it in stock.
So yes, If you want a good deal and don’t care about service then the 99 Cent Only is for you.

Savings Galore! This store has more selections than the Dollar Store and mom and pop .99 cent stores combined! It’s relatively well kept for how many rampant kids are running through the aisles tearing ish up. If you never been to a 99 cent only store before, be prepared to be mind blown for what can be yours for only 99 cents. I even got power extension cords and micro usb to usb cables for 99 Cents!

My boyfriend’s mom actually showed me this 99 Cent store and I’m in love with it! I just wish it wasn’t so far from my house.
It literally has everything! However, take note of their shipment days because sometimes everything’s almost gone.
