Ross Dress for Less

A friend in the golf business told me that I would be stunned at what I could find in the way of high quality major name brand shirts for low prices at these locations.
Well, he was right. What he failed to add was the crap I would have to deal with to actually make the purchase.
I was barely out of my car in the parking lot and a couple approached me asking if I knew of anyone hiring. Seriously, you’re in a mall parking lot. So why don’t you go into a store and ask a manager!
Upon entry to the store, I walked past not one, but two security guards very carefully watching the front door.
My friend instructed me exactly where to look for the golf shirts and I must say that I easily found a gem from the Nike family that ran ²⁄₃ less than original retail and about half what I would have paid on Ebay. Maybe I just got lucky, but the sizes on this rack were very well organized… unlike what others on Unilocal have said about this store.
Checking out was not nearly as efficient and I sense that is almost always the case based on how things are set up near the cashiers.
I’m happy to get the shirt, but was even happier to get the heck out of this place.

This was my second time shopping at this particular Ross and it will be my last. Now I remember why I never frequented that store. i don’t have nay issues with the store itself, but with the customer service, or should I say lack there of. Both times I have gone the cashiers couldn’t have been more rude. I should add that my bad experiences happened during checkout. This time, I purchased several fragile items and this woman told me that ill just have to carry it out of the store in the wooden tray I was buying because she didn’t have anything to put it in. I asked if there was any paper to wrap it in or if she could use a couple plastic bags, but she said no. I asked to see a manager after her never making eye contact and talking down to me as if I was the scum of the earth for asking to protect my glass purchases. While I waited for the manager, she said very sarcastically, «Oh look, I have paper in the trash. I’ll just use that for you.“Then she started stacking the poorly wrapped glass on top of each other. When the long, blonde hair manager came over, the customer was even worse. It’s crazy to think someone so rude is the manager of a store. Now I know why the bar is set so low.
Long story short, I won’t be going back to that Ross. I’ll continue to shop at other Ross stores, but definitely NOT that one.

The dressing room attendant Diane called me «uppity.» Does she realize I’m shopping at Ross?

The problems that this particular Ross has are in no way the fault of the store. In reality it’s the patrons. They must assume that because it’s in Citrus Park that’s it’s swanky or something, but it’s actually the same crap as any Ross store, except nicely organized, not dropped or damaged stuff. I was in this store when a fire broke out. We were orderly ushered to the doors while the kids who started the fire grabbed what they could and jumped into their getaway car outside. Too shocked that someone would actually steal from Ross with their already low prices I was unable to grab the greasy kids as they ran past me. I’ll always regret not having my boot in their path, but certainly hope they were punished to the full extent of the law. Security presence certainly helps, I mean how much more can they possibly spend protecting five dollar shirts and ten dollar dresses?

Not my usual place to shop for clothes but my daughter likes to find bargains. They do have a pretty large selection of clothes at decent prices but don’t like their shoes as they look cheaply made.
This Ross is directly across from Citrus Park Mall so that would be my first choice. But sometimes you just don’t feel like spending the time it takes to do the mall thing.
They do have senior discount on Tuesdays. Yikes! I’m still a kid at heart but will any discount I can get! Old age does that to you. You have to ask for it though.

I’m somewhat of a bargain shopper… so I frequent these stores for good finds. Sometimes I can find the Hawaiian Host Macadamia Chocolates that I grew up eating for a reasonable price or a nice gourmet coffee.
The areas of the store I frequent are gourmet foods, home, and beauty.
I don’t really like the clothes or shoes in Ross, so I rarely bother going through clothing there unless I’m looking for something specific and I’m on a hunt.
During Christmas I buy toys in Ross. It’s such a pain to get price tags off of the items… I almost think they don’t want you to buy gifts for anyone.
Not all Ross stores are created equal. There are a few that are open until 10:30 PM now and this is one of them. You’ll go to others (on the other side of town) and they can close as early as 8 PM during the regular shopping season. This one is not the most organized, but it’s not terrible.

I like shopping at Ross, but this Ross. I don’t even know what to say.
There was precious little in the way of organization of sizes, the store was an absolute mess. I know, it’s just after Christmas, so that might account for some of it, but LORDY! Spend some of your valuable time out on the floor getting it spruced up.
I did buy a dress and a shirt for $ 30, so I can’t truly complain, but really… this place was a disaster, especially in their check out area.

My go to Ross, super friend staff and the store is always clean which make shopping easy.

This particular location is much harder to find good household items in. The selection pales compared to other stores but once in a while you find a good item. The clothing is usually «disposable» so I normally go for household goods.

The only positive thing I can say about this place is you can get a few essentials for a great price; some items for the home in particular. My boyfriend made out well with some shorts and casual shirts; but overall it was crowded and dirty with awful customer service. It’s going to take some convincing to get me to ever take a trip back here to look for a bargain.

It’s cheap, that’s the only good thing. This store is always a wreck. It’s dirty. It’s disorganized. The checkout lines are always long when I go there. I’m glad I’m making more money now and can shop somewhere else.

It’s Ross. The Walmart of discount outlets. Snagged a $ 10 pair of slacks, so, it serves its purpose!

Simply two long lines and they didnt consider opening another register.
