Just sad! I went in this morning to grab a pair of reading glasses, because I was desperate and needed them for work.First let me say that the cashier was super nice, but that is really the only positive thing I can say.I walked in to this store at 9am, about an hour after they had been opened. I should have figured there was something off when I pulled into the parking lot and there were NO other cars in the lot. But I went inside anyway. Completely empty of customers. There were boxes in every aisle, presumably from overnights. I went to the cooler to grab an energy drink. The selection was abysmal, barely anything there. I casually walked the rest of the store, out of curiosity, because this is supposed to be the combo store that combined Family Dollar and Dollar Tree. I found a half empty bottle of juice on the shelf, a half empty bottle of water in the cooler, and a half empty cup of soda from McDonalds on another shelf. All on shelves next to merchandise. Disgusting! Its almost as if overnights just left in the middle of their shift, and never came back.

This store is disgusting!!! I would be ashamed to work there. They never have anything. Shelves are always empty. Seems nobody takes pride in working there and I cant blame them. That store should be shut down. Im glad there is a new one in the old hy-vee drug store.

The shelves are never stocked up so, you walk down mostly empty isles.. The Sale items in the ad and items that you clip coupons for are seldom available. I have had so many clipped coupons not work properly and I always have to bring things to their attention.

This is the worst store Ive ever been to. There were piles of clothing on the floor that had fallen off the rack or never had been hung up. Could not walk through the aisles due to boxes and merchandise all over. This is not only messy but dangerous!

Review №25

This store used to be clean and nice. As of today I went in and it was disgusting. Dirty and boxes everywhere. I for one will never go there again!

Review №26

The staff are very helpful, friendly, positive and welcoming. The store has a variety of products at much lower prices than most or stores offering the same quality items. Great place to shop and save money especially if you use the mobile coupons!

I clean houses for a living and usually they have supplies at good prices. Today I came in, I couldnt find Swiffer dusters or anything comparable. Almost every isle has boxes in it, either empty or waiting to be stocked. I looked on the floor to see if I could find a box of the dusters...no luck there either. I dont know whats going on with this poor store....maybe they are under staffed. Its sad. What they do have out is nice, priced well, but hard to get to. The employees I saw were all very kind.

I was recently at the council Bluffs store and it was disgusting!!! I couldnt believe how dark and unwelcoming it was. It looked like they were having a going out of business sale. The shelves were pretty much bare, stuff was thrown all over the place, and not one associate greeted me or asked if I needed anything. I couldnt even purchase anything.

I needed a cart. They said they have 3 and they are being used. Never did get a cart. Store was dirty and piles of clothes on the floor in front of shelves. Shelves were bare. I waited for quite awhile and never got a cart so I just put everything down and left. They seemed very under staffed and need carts.

Review №34

The store is extremely dirty. Items on the floor that is filthy. Carts and boxes on the floor making it impossible to pass. I went to get a gallon of milk when I opened the cooler door it smelled. It is more than obvious the store has zero management 🚫🐀💩

For items that you go through all the time the family Dollar is better then spending twice at other places, when you cant event tell the difference

I walked into the dollar store the other day, OMG what a mess of a store, It used to be a popular store, you walk into this one, and want to turn around, whoever owns it or manages it, is not doing their jobWhat a joke and a mess, their not what it used to be,

It has come a long way in the last few months on being cleaner and more organized

Review №48

I was immediately greeted with a CASH ONLY voice booming in my ear, not very pleasant.I finished my shopping and attempted to pay for my goods. The only denomination I had was a 100 dollar bill which they wouldnt accept. Im fairly certain they had change because they have been CASH ONLY for maybe a week? The person working the counter said they didnt.So I went into a store that basically wouldnt accept any form of payment because Im sure a 100 dollar bill is cash.I am very upset to have wasted my gasoline as well as my time trying to obtain items from this store. Which is quite dirty and unorganized as well.I will no longer be shopping here, and I now have a poor opinion of the entire Family Dollar franchise, and I will tell others.
