  I have been going to this location for a few years now & have found decent products every so often. I have noticed though over the last couple years the quality of product being offered has dropped a good bit. On Fridays, which is the first day after restock there has really been nothing worth purchasing at that days rate. For those that have never been here it is just like any other bin store where they price on a sliding scale, Friday $7 each, Saturday $5 each and so on. Recently the only day that really seemed worth it would be Tuesday where items are priced at $1 each in the bins but not for great products, just to buy supplies. I would come and buy rolls of new wrapping paper to use for shipping items, or different supplies to use in my business or around the house but now that has even changed recently. This past week I stopped in late on Monday which is $3 dollar day and there were around maybe 12-14 tables that had a decent amount of product in them but for my use they weren't worth paying $3 each on. I decided to swing back in on Tuesday morning to try to grab some of those items that I use for shipping or business supply and was extremely disappointed. Everything had been condensed down to maybe 6 tables and then 2 tables filled with phone cases that are always there. The 6 tables that were out barely had anything in them. You honestly could have put everything in one table bin and there would still be empty space & the products that were offered were basically junk. It's not that the items were junk in my opinion but the fact that they obviously removed a ton of stuff that they felt was worth more than a $1 to be moved to the new stock to be released on Friday. And I am not complaining about the cost at all, I spend several hundreds to thousands per week buying from bin stores all through Florida and Government auctions, its not the cost but the fact that they removed anything of value leaving product that for the most part should have been sent straight to the trash can. I've been told by 2 different employees over the years that they do remove items to add to the new stock, I have seen it with my own eyes before. I have even seen items there that had writing on them or what not and they vanished from the bins only to be found the next week with the new stock. It's your product, you sell it if you want or price it how you want but now it just seems they are recycling more and more product to where even the decent days to go there are no longer worth the effort. I use to visit at least twice a week when I first started going years ago, recently went down to maybe once every 2 weeks. After these last couple visits though, if they keep doing it this way there won't be a reason to stop there at all. Being in the space of auctions, warehouse buys, overstock, etc. the supplier they use needs to be replaced, a lot of this stuff now is what we call filler. There might be 3 or 4 good items in the pallet with 200-300 filler items that really aren't worth that much at all. I really wish they would start bringing in better product and stop pulling every little item that you think has more value to it and recycling it week after week, it's not selling because it is not worth what you think it is, hence the having to recycle product daily. Hopefully they will start turning it around and bring it back to what it once was or unfortunately this place is just going to be a dumping ground for Dollar General returns.
