I bought a 4X6 carpet that was obvious used and returned and resold to me. They refusedd to give me my money back when I showed them proof of the dirty carpet. I paid cash and the lady that helped me did not give me a receipt. Stay away from this dump.

Service is terrible
December 5, 2024

Caleb is a really rude employee at the Warrenton five below. He will make rude comments if you buy a lot. I suggest not buying anything at all in the warrenton five below, unless they change his service attitude towards customers. I even watched other customers say the very same thing about him. I will put everything back, I'll drop everything and leave. You won't have my support at all.

Worst treatment by staff I've ever experienced. If you want to be very blatantly stalked like you're trying to steal something by completely rude staff members while by all means shop here. Otherwise I'd take my business elsewhere. I've been a loyal customer for years but I will not be back.Completely ridiculous.

No Words
November 14, 2023

What is the point of having self check out machines if they will not be used? I had to leave my purchases at the register and walk out or be late for work, all because the one cashier was incredibly slow. And waited till she had 3 people waiting in line to call for help. My suggestion, either reopen the self check outs and have someone nearby to make sure people pay for their purchases before leaving. Or; training your cashiers to not take 10 minutes to check one person out.

This location is far the best I have been to, I actually return it to often. Not only they have most merchandise but the staff rating is 5 stars, the guy at the front who might be the manager he has been there for long because always see him has the best attitude, always willing to help, no matter what he makes sure you leave pleased and happy and with what you were looking for. Honestly all the staff there is a pleasure to talk to. I wish all the other stores in the are had this type of customer service, it does make a a difference. Will definitely continue to go shop there!

Not good
May 9, 2024

They never have what they show online. Today I asked the girl why was a different price then online.
She said because it's an online deal. So in store I would have to pay the full 5 dollars while online
They would pay 2 dollars and fifty cents. Also why must they stock the shelves when I am trying to
Shop so now they are in my way. Also brought a journal today that said it glows in the dark so not true. Also they always short change you so count your money before you leave the store.

Zero stars
January 23, 2024

I placed a curbside pickup on 1/20. Itcsays that they will have it ready within 6 hours. I called and they didn't have anything ready. I contacted customer service several times. Today, customer service, not the store, told me it was ready. They didn't have my order ready and the staff were rude. Customer service person was worse. I will never purchase from them again. This is the one in Lincoln, Nebraska.

The reason Five below sells cheaper Tootsie rolls candy is because they are the tiniest Tootsie rolls. Walmart has Midgees but not as small as five below. I feel like, I got taken. Walmarts Midgees Tootsie rolls are twice as big. Walmart would of been a better deal.

I ordered three bags online. My pickup order was filled fast.

How sad... you open up a new store and there isn't one REAL PERSON register to allow people to ask any questions to to possibly get thanked for stopping in the new store and most importantly... i had to wait for help with no one in the store to have a worker not be able to scan an item that she said never scans and I ended up putting it back. You guys lose I'm never coming back. Pathetic customer experience... sadly businesses forget a business is all about the customer.

Bad service
October 16, 2023

I was disgusted by how I was treated at checkout. All the self checkouts were "closed". We had to check out with a very unfriendly disgruntled young ginger girl with freckles who rolled her eyes right after I paid and left

Saw a scope for bird watching. Good price, look nice. However, the box does not specify minimum viewing distance.

Ask the sales associate, he has no idea nor even bother to search info from the box. Store manager inform me that product can not return either.

So I ask the manager, if I buy it, I may stuck with it? She said: yes!

This is a joke!

Self-checkout
December 2, 2022

I used to shop at five below frequently; school shopping, holidays, for work. I will not return unless they get rid of the self- checkout only option. I understand the need to tighten up but customer service is not the answer! I feel that is disrespectful to the customers, who can just as easily spend their money elsewhere. AND I WILL!

While shopping, in the Columbia, SC location, I noticed an elder employee constantly following me while I shopped. At first I didn't think anything of it, but then she constantly showed up around every corner that I was. She was also very rude as I checked out. It was an embarrassing experience for me. I will definitely shop online from now on.

Ridiculous
July 7, 2022

From the minute I walked into the Cicero, NY store I was being watched and followed. Every corner I turned same girl watching. I even called her on it. Kudos for training staff on stealing. Total turn off to us who are honest and in our mid 50s. Might wanna train better. Absolutely ridiculous and a bit too much.

Customer Service
June 14, 2023

I have left 5 messages for customer service. They have yet to reach back out to me. I will call every day until someone returns my calls.
The Rockwall Texas store has horrible unprofessional employees. I was told if shirts did not fit that I could exchange or return. Now I am told No by multiple very young employees.

Horrible customer service!
September 20, 2023

Better pray that you never have a problem. They make it not very easy to get a hold of customer service probably cuz they don't want to hear the nastiness coming out of people's mouths about the crap they have to put up with when shopping with this company. All they do is email you back and blow you off like you don't matter. Unfortunately that's how it goes when you deal with low value companies such as this. The customers always right or so I've always been told but not when it comes to these guys. According to them you're always wrong and there's not a damn thing they can do to help you. Unfortunately I had to give them at least one star cuz you can't give them less than that.
