99 Cent Only Stores

Used to love shopping here (until I no longer had transportation). Most things are so much cheaper than grocery stores, I could get a large package of toilet paper for under $ 3. I also got some cute decorative stuff for my apartment.

THIS STORE IS OFFENSIVE TO SENIORS. I thought I’d try a bottle of wine and the cashier refused to sell it to me without first showing her my ID. I’m 70 years old. When I asked for the manager, a very rude manager named Mustafa approached and told me that was the store policy, I asked him for the corporate phone number and he refused to give it to me. I told him I would never come back and he said he didn’t want me to ever come back. Then as I was leaving, he took out a paper and pen and started to follow me into the parking lot. I told him not to follow me and then he said he was going to call the police!!! WHAT A JERK. If this company wants to expand into other items such as wines beyond .99 cents they are getting off on the wrong foot. And if the cashier’s can’t make a reasonable decision that there is no question that I’m old enough to buy wine then that’s another area of opportunity that needs improvement.
I WILL NEVER COME BACK.

This is one of the larger 99 cent stores and there was quite a bit of staff available for stocking items and running the cash registers I rated the store low because I was shocked at looking at the Nutella chocolate on the way out the door take a look at my attached picture they were actually selling these and the lids to the containers were open yikes

I can always find things I need here. Once we had a fun event where everyone spent a dollar on food items at this store. We made a pot luck out of our purchases. It was fun.

Let me start by saying that I LOVE to save money. From groceries to oil changes I am always searching for deals/​coupons. My weekly routine is to visit the dollar store to search for some great cheap finds and then stop at Fry’s on my way home. At this 99 cent store location a few of my favorites are asparagus, avocados, red potatoes, lettuce, big packs of frozen sausage links, green tea, pistachios, snickers fun packs, yoo-​hoo, the list goes on. There is also a Fresh and Easy (now open 24 hours) next to this location that I stop by for their red pepper hummus.

This is my favorite dollar store in AZ. Many people think that dollar stores don’t have any brand items, but they do. I just bought Zico coconut water that I saw in Target for $ 5 (I stocked up on this!). I also often buy my favorite yogurt here which is called Mountain High and often costs $ 3.50 in stores. They don’t always have a ton of brand stuff; when it is out, it’s random on what you will find.
These are the items I buy from this Dollar Store (when they are available):
Coconut water
Yogurt (yoplait, chobani, mountain high)
Softsoap hand soap
Totino’s Pizza Rolls
Halloween Costume Items
Candy
Crystal Geyser water
Roman Wheat Bread
Tortillas
Hair Accessories
Paper Plates
Foam Cups
Jello’s Pudding Cups

Good place to make some purchases when it comes to glassware, plates, etc. but I’m not the type to personally say I’d buy my fresh groceries from. Convenient when I have to buy gift wrapping and other random things like gift bags, etc but that’s about it. I can appreciate its’ convenience and all around business model though.

I love the 99 Cent store. Not only is it super cheap but they have a good selection of things and fresh produce! This place is a broke college kid’s haven; it has like 5 packs of ramen for 99 cents and energy drinks, and water. It’s always a stop when I have to do some shopping. Oh, tip for getting yummy produce before it’s all out — go at opening when they’re stocking their produce section. I get a lot of salad ingredients and a lot of my fruit from here.

One of the most cleanest, organized 99 Cent stores I’ve ever seen!
They sell those Jamba Juice juices that are normally $ 2 – 3 at the regular stores. I stocked up with a case of those!
Tazo Tea, two for 99 cents! Also stocked up on a case of those!
Six-​pack of 12oz Crystal Geyser waters, spent $ 4 on four six-​packs!
This store practically saved me from dehydration in this 109 degree AZ weather for the next two weeks! I love this store :)

Hands down… the BEST 99 cent store I have ever been to.
They sell Plantains! What??? Where they do that at? LOL… Right there in snotty Scottsdale! I love it.
This 99cent spot has everything… literally…clothing too.
I would come back again and again.
They even have organic food! I love it!!!

The best 99 cents store I’ve ever been to — in life. Any 99 cents store that sells platanos (plantains) gets an A+ in my book. Some of the things that they have here amaze me: organic produce, fine chocolates, electric tea lights, sea salt, sugar in the raw… I could go on and on. AND they stay open late! *thumbs up*

i find so many cool things at this store. i like to go here and know i can afford anything i see. i feel very rich when i am here!
