Ocean State Job Lot

Great place to run in and out to get what you want. Great snow brooms for reasonable prices!! We all know in New England, the weather changes every 10 minutes!!! They offer many seasonal items for fair prices!!! Something for everyone.Staff always good natured and very helpful.

I like the place and can find lots of stuff I need but you often have to go when the item you need is in season, otherwise it's not the place to go to. For example if you need patio furniture, only in the summer, if you need salt or something for the snow you need to go late winter, you need stuff to close your pool, only at the end of the summer. Basically if you need something in season, great place to go to. If you need it when it's not on season, look elsewhere.nnAlso I'm annoyed that they often try to trick you into buying stuff that aren't crazy deals because they are in the crazy deals section with other items that are similar. And always the item that's not part of the crazy deal is very expensive and the only way they could sell it is to trick you into taking it to the register only to tell you, oh the crazy deal is for all the other ones, not this expensive one. So some people will just say, doesn't matter, I'll get it anyway. This hasn't happened once to think this is random or a coincidence or anything else. It happens a lot.. I've seen it dozens of times. Basically anytime they have an item that is good and a good deal and they also have a similar overpriced item in stock at the same time that they want to sell.nnThis trick they do would get them a one star rating, but I do go there often for stuff I need in season and do often find good deals.. So 3 stars.

They sometimes have what I am looking for, but always have something I did not know I was looking for.

Great store. It has an extremely wide variety of interesting things. You never know what you might find.

This store has everything. It's like a department store that also sells food goods. They have good deals on bulk coffee k-cups too.
