I usually have a good experience here, but that one visit will always get you. Not all the cashiers will remember to ask for your insider card which could make returns a problem. Just because some products/stores have unbeatable prices, it doesnt matter when you get to the register to try and use them crazy deals gift cards. All of a sudden the rules change when it comes time to pay. Why do I have to pay everything at full price (to use the crazy deals gift card balance) for when Im a regular customer looking to build/accumulate points? Doesnt make sense to me. With all the expenses in the world, if theyre going to just hand out deals often, then they should do what CVS does and combine coupons. People want to save as much money as they can these days. Theyd get more customers on a regular basis. Honestly, if it isnt for the occasional store-wide sale, most of Long Island throughout the year would forget that this store even exists. Like Big Lots.

A great store that my family and I always go to. Very well organized and a great place to shop outside of the big name stores. I wish they would open more stores near my family on Long Island so they can shop too. Love all the food and hardware products. The seasonal department is fantastic! The whole staff is great and I could recommend this store more.

Nice little store. Great deals. And I love crazy cards. Great employees. However every time I go in there this red-headed lady who sells batteries asks myself and my family if we need any. I wouldn’t mind if she asked once but to ask me, my wife and our kid, THREE times is too much. Haven’t been back since the last time she offered us batteries. Lady is just relentless in selling batteries on sale. But, great store and workers besides her.

Went for propane refills. There was supposed to be a $40 card if you spent over $50. I was told propane doesnt count but there we no signs on the advertisement made no mention of it. Spent $58.00 Next time I will go local.

This is my second job lot I’ve been to. I’m more at north port rather then the Centereach location. But the store looks amazing compared to north port. I went to go buy some seasonal items and just to walk the store the other day. And this worker with the name Maverick helped me in the hygiene part of the store. He knew his stuff about the products he was putting out. He was very knowledgeable about his craft and was also very kind, you don’t see that too often these days. You could tell he really enjoys what he does. I will definitely make the long trip back to Centereach just because of his outstanding service!!!!

I just love this store. They have so much of what I use on a daily basis. The prices are great. There is ample parking. The reason I gave 4 and not 5 stars is because their hours arent great. A couple times I went in the evening and they were already closed. Also. the staff isnt always very nice. Most of them are. Theres 1 or 2 that arent though. Overall, I recommend it.

Very clean well organized an eclectic mix of items. Most of the stuff is a really great deal. Some of the items are not much different in price than what you can get in regular stores. I do enjoy going up and down all the aisles and finding great deals

This place is a hit or miss shop for a specific item however I have never left empty handed. The store is great. Its a store that has just about everything at one point or another. They offer a wide variety of things but once its gone thats it. Make sure to stop by often. Items change constantly and new items sell fast. Worth stopping by and having a look. You wont be disappointed. Just remember its a bargain store so you may have to look around.

I can’t count how many times I’ve walked in here to get just about anything for half or less the price from Home Depot. I’ve gone through a variety of gardening tools too easily due to just poor design or materials, and then I come here to find the same type of products but at a higher quality. It seems to apply the same with almost anything you find here.

The best customer service there is in this store. When I dont see something that is advertised, I ask the staff and if they have it, they go out of their way to get it and put it on the floor. Staff member Crystal has assisted me more than once when I called upon her and the staff that I come in contact with has always been more than helpful and pleasant. Thanks so much for always assisting customers....I am one who appreciates it and keep up the good work.

Local to the store I walk in with 15 minutes left until they close for a snack while I’m working. Employee following me around the store like trying to shoo me out. Then someone asked her what she’s doing she said she’s looking for theft. Do I look like a criminal lol walked out I’ll never be back.

I like this place for bargains on food staples. There are a lot of things here that I have yet to fully explore the store. They have limited supply of clothing but plenty of socks. They also carry seasonal items, now is gardening time. I only come here when I need something and know they carry it.

I located some pretty nifty objects, that were not inferior quality, that cannot easily be found at very many places, at a reasonable price. Add to that, I stumbled upon some very nice potted outdoor garden border plants, less than it would cost at discounters, which i planted and took wrll and look marvelous.

This place is as if all of the items that go to more expensive stores fell off the back of a truck and ended up here. Prices are amazing. I love the rotating stock. I venture in once about every three months to see all the new stuff they have. Highly recommend this place, as its cheap but not cheap products.

Wish they were open later, but always exit their doors with great finds at a bargain.UPDATE: Its been a little over a year since the last time I visited and have added another star for being in the forefront of my mind mist on where to go survival shopping once that pandemic stimulus check comes around. Plus, I have some Job Lot bucks to add to the spending.

I love this store, even the companys philosophy is refreshing in this day and age. The employees are so helpful and courteous and they love their jobs! I found out this company gives back not only to their employees but to their local community too. Every time I visit this store it is very clean and organized - even here at Christmas time when people are shuffling through shelves like crazy.

Great, clean store with some pretty good deals. Theres a good assortment of items throughout the store from health and beauty, foods, hardwares, seasonal items, carpets and more. Employees are kind and have no problem helping you or answering questions. The most unique thing this store offers are the crazy deals. Basically you buy certain items and get back store credit, bigger items up to $100+ store credit or essentially a gift card to use in the future. This store is worth the visit.
