Big Lots

I can buy Christmas shit, cleaning supplies AND a big ass bag of cereal (cinnamon toast crunch) for less than $ 30 buckaroonies? Say whaaaaat!
Ok, I shouldn’t be so surprised as all Big Lots are pretty much the same. They carry the same stuff, most if not all are cluttered as fuck, which is ok, because if I wanted an uncluttered store i’d take my ass to Nordstrom’s pay a crapload of money for some random ass item, and I ain’t having that.
Service is great. The guys on the floor were pretty helpful and the tattooed cashier was not only a hot milf, but nice as well. Big ups to Big Lots Lomita, i’ll be back.

Big Shout Out to Monque grate customer service. Thank you. People like you are what a customer is looking for …

I went to this Big Lots in Lomita, CA on 4÷10÷2015. It was my 1^st time there. It’s store #4136. I bought 20 of their 6qt clear white plastic boxes (shoebox size). At $ 1.00 each, that $ 20.00. You can’t beat that price. Plus, they have an ample shared parking lot.

They need more training in customer service. I waited for almost 30 mins to get help in the furniture department, every time I asked for help they looked at me like I was from a foreign country then they turned around an starting speaking Spanish to each other. Will never shop there again.

This is an update from a previous review i left below. Please read! Recent negative experience, but that does not reflect on the two exemplary employees in my previous review.
Update on 10÷4÷14:
Fyi: if you go in thinking you can get an extra 20% off, like the ad says on the site, don’t be misled by the prices because they are already marked down on the furniture, but not everything else, and it says in the tiniest print ever at the bottom of the tag that is part of the friends and family event.
So how did employees treat customers who were mislead by this? Terribly. We are going to be calling the corporate office on Diego and Elvis. They were really jerks. My husband had to leave the store because Diego the manager made him so angry by smarting off to him. Respect, people. Seriously. So frustrating. It is entirely possible to deal with unhappy customers with out being rude or disrespectful. I wish Tim had been here tonight!
Previous Review:
I have to give big props to Tim and Beverly, and also one of the clerks that helped us. They gave us really good customer service today. We went in to buy a mattress this evening and were really excited about it. Unfortunately, we waited for 45 minutes for help. My husband even asked one lady who worked there, and was lounging on one of the couches, for help, and she refused, saying she was on her break and he could go see someone at customer service. Also, the store manager was not accomodating to his employees and was ignoring calls from his staff. He wouldn’t answer the phone from the staff, but he did answer the assistant manager’s call. With that kind of management, I’m surprised we got any help. What a terrible way to manage a store. Phew. Geez. Anyway, Tim wasn’t aware that no one had helped us, and made sure we were taken care of, he’s a really great guy and was very kind, even though it was obvious he was very busy unloading a shipment! Thank you for your excellent service, we will definitely come back to this store because of you. And Beverly. She was able to complete the sale and gave us a discount for the time we had to wait and to maintain customer satisfaction.
We are now enjoying our new mattress!:) Thank you:)

Last minute stop to replace a broken water gun. The store was closed & checking out the last of the customers; a really nice gentleman let us in to quickly check their stock. :-) We didn’t find what we were looking for, but I thought he was very gracious to stay open a couple extra minutes.

Neater and brighter than most others.
Big Lots is Big Lots. They’re all pretty much the same… I love coming here, though for great deals & finds. Treasure hunting I call it — you never know what you’ll find. But when you do find that one thing (or two) that tickle your fancy grab it because it may not be there the next time you come.
The Hubs & I are true bargain hunters and love to save a few bucks EVERYTIME we shop. so Big Lots is on the itinerary for all our shopping excursions. The household items are big savers most of the time. like dish & laundry detergent, cleaning equipment (mops/​swiffers, sponges, etc) and fabreeze. You know how expensive those things can get. even at ah-hem.WalMart.
I recommend Big Lots to EVERYONE. I have friends who will NEVER step foot in a Big Lots. some have OCD issues, so we’ll lay off of them for now, but the others that say «its just too ghetto, I can’t believe you shop there.» (they have lots of money and will spend whatever wherever because they can) Hey, I do not care where I get the same item you got and paid 3−5x more for. Its the same things. just may have damaged packaging or the company changed the packaging .its the same item on the inside.
Try it once, then form an opinion and save some cash while you’re at it.

OK… I wanna know why EVERYTIME I drive down PCH close to this place, my truck wants to veer in towards the parking lot???
Oh… That would be because I love junk and this place (and the other Big Lots I’ve patronized) have lots of cool junk and usually at ridiculously low prices. Some name brand stuff but mostly «knock-​offs» but I really don’t give a $hit…
Why? Because I love junk!!!
P. S. The bathrooms leave little to be desired. Respect my authorita and prepare yourself for a much needed tetanus shot afterward. Or just hover skillfully.

Me and my mom love big lots we have been coming here for years. My mom and I used to work at Camelot drug before it became a 99 cent store. I shop here for my make up shampoo body wash a such things party things. This store rocks.

Decent prices, ITs always so unorganized here! Always clutter, clutter, clutter!
On a good Note!
I have gotten most of my kitchen utensils here. From pots, coffe maker and vaccum. Defintely great prices for brand name products. Five dollar movies are definately my favorite here. Storage containers are so cheap compare to other stores. Just messy compared to every other Big lots this is probably one of the messiest.
Just watch your step here, there is always something on the way or on the floor!
