Ocean State Job Lot Reviews

Great bargains! You can always find whatever you need. I never walk out empty handed!

Each store's layout is a bit different so you never know what you will find plus the products will change based on the inventory the corporate office has been able to obtain. This is a big store so there's a lot to see but it's usually in very good shape, not messy, and not that long of a wait to check out. You can get some very good deals but you need to look around to find them. Considering that most of the what they carry is discontinued, overstocked or former out of business items, you'll find some of these items even more expensive than you'll find at Wal-Mart or other retailers. Overall though, it's a great place to shop at to get good deals. Check it out regularly due to the changing of inventory and you'll be rewarded.

This is a nice Job Lot. Bright, clean and well stocked.

One would never know how much great stuff this store has. This place is now my regular pit stop for polar club soda, coffee, spices, pool supplies, toiletries and misc. make it your pit stop as well and you will save money!

A good place to shop and find things you can't find somewhere else

Most of the food was good one dish was not up to par and was taken off my bill.i will give them another try .

Was shoping today with a joblot employee from another store and we were followed around and made to feel very uneasy. Not friendly management, we spent $ , my friend was shocked.

I am on old Yankee, so my Job Lot is the entertainment equivalent of Disney.

Good prices but they don't always have what they advertise...like today.

Well stocked and friendly, knowledgeable employees.

I work here and it's the best place to be and a great employment opportunities

Asked employee (appeared to be a manger) a simple question, was answered with a cold stare and what does the sign say! . Extremely rude, shocking, and uncalled for. So sad and it s a shame this is how their employees respond to loyal customers who have shopped here for many years.

Great place to find all sorts of things at reasonable prices

Employees always helpful and nice. Great selection of goods.

I absolutely Love job lot. There are no problems finding these and all the associate are very helpful!!!

Always just wander up and down the aisles. Unexpected bargains often show up and several standbys that are always priced lower than anywhere else

Great prices, some stuff they sell are hard to find or on sale because of limited quantity

Good quality and the best prices. A RI institution.

Love the insider deals and crazy deals. Good prices on virtually everything.

First I am appreciative that people worked during Covid. However I don't understand how it falls on the consumer to add 2% to their purchase to subsidize wages for employees. Your employees do deserve more- but not from the consumer.

Second. Recently went in to purchase flex floor. Boxes labeled 37 dollars however once at the register I was informed that there were 2 units in each box, meaning that it was actually 71 dollars per box. The manager was unwilling to sell the box at the labeled price.

Third- buyer beware. If you buy certain products. A massager for example this could be considered a personal care product that you can not receive a refund for.

If an item is not eligeable for a refund, it seems practically that should be labeled or have signage somewhere.

In conclusion. I'm not sure what management is doing here, but for certain, I will no longer be a customer. The deals are barely deals and certainly not worth the hassel.

Prices used to be very good. Very few exceptional bargains anymore.

Great deals. Friendly people and they started in Ri so you feel good about supporting local business

Place is kept clean and easy to find things you need

OSJL solid store location. Check out people are on the ball!

Clean store, had some great deals on toys! I was able to grab a few adorable toys for my girls before flying back to Texas : )

Spending time with my son n shopping at OSJL my favorite store..n this place is huge

Best Job Lot in RI, hands down. Neatly organized, huge selection, as always great prices.

I went in for an item but unfortunately they didn't have it but like most of the places they do have a lot of other stuff to offer

I love Job Lot! Everyone's always so nice and they have the best stuff!

They have everything you need. Prices are great. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Great place to shop for house items, seasonal items, gardening, toiletries, beach chairs, boogie boards, auto, clothing, food items such as olive oil, teas, soups, spices. I just love to poke around Job Lot, you just never know what overstock lot you might come across! Gotta love those CRAZY DEALS. They pay you to shop there. Highly recommend you stop in. Everyone will find something they need, and the prices are great.

Awesome new building. So much more organized and very clean.

Worst in the state. I leave empty handed every single time. Way to go job lot.

I love this store, location, stocked mdse.store employees are the greatest

There was nice stuff but not a lot of it there was not so much to choose from

Good but not as many bargains anymore. Some prices are as high a normal stores. You have to be careful now that you are not overpaying.

Disappointed that they do not have any paper products for birthday parties.

Wonderful shoppers. Cashier needs to check his attitude! I have a very painful leg . i asked if he could have someone bring it to register. He said see if you can find someone. Other customers noticed also. With his red hat he wasn't very jolly.

One of the largest storesof the chain that I've seen. The store is very clean, employees are friendly, well stocked, great prices.

Social distancing done well.

Wicked huge store on French town. Big selection with some good home decor. They also still use cashiers

Looking for something specific, couldn't find it, asked for help, they went in the back, found some and brought them out, with a smile! This is a great company that hires great people. I really like shopping here.

Had a bad experience in the store at the cashier station. Waited in line at a cashier for 15 minutes. Then someone in the front got ahead of us. Moved to another line person front of us had an issue cashing out. Told to go back to cash out in the line were originally in.. Moved all item never talked to the cashier except that I just wanted to cash out. Cashier said no. Getting the manager she would not help. No other conversation between us. What is going on at that store? If this happens to me again I simply leaving the items on the counter and leaving the store never to return. At no time during this 30 minute nightmare was I more than two people back in line. Was I upset you bet, never uttered a word of complaint until the manager came and checked me out. He at least was quit nice. The reason I would return.

Great deals on everything. I love the crazy deals. Feels safe and clean during the pandemic. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Normally a decent store but after today I won't be going back. I was making a purchase and the power bars I was purchasing not only were expired but were a part of a crazy deal which I did not know. When I went to pay the cashier had to call someone else over to void out the power bars because of the crazy deal. Then a different cashier with purple and blue hair walks over and rudely tells me next time to separate them if I am using a separate crazy deal card to pay for items if there are items also a part of a separate crazy deal!..

She did not let me even say that I did not know there was a crazy deal on the power bars, and was very short with me. When she left I asked the original cashier to speak with a manager, she asks the woman with the colored hair to call the manager up. As I am waiting she has the nerve to ask me if everything is ok...

First off, I didn't appreciate that she didnt even let me say that I wasnt aware of the crazy deal then proceeded to talk to me like I am dumb. I work as a manager at a separate business so having known there was a crazy deal I would be courteous enough to separate items
Do not talk to your customers like that!! We aren't above you and you're not above us !

Store is well stocked, prices are low. It is clean and the employees are helpful and friendly

They have everything imaginable. Not necessarily the best quality but definitely the best prices

Lots of general items here. Prices are reasonable but not real bargins.

Job Lot is and will most likely continue to be a great resource for the great products they carry... Sure, not all their items are not available all the time... But, you can find some wonderful treasures there... At very affordable prices!!!!
