Surprise Bins - El Mirage, Arizona

The items are defective. I realize this is a risk you take with places like this But I feel ripped off.. and I remember asking the lady when I did see an item that was missing pieces in the pack and she wouldn't adjust the price at all or help me find the pieces which are probably at the bottom of the bin. And she said no
In addition to my frustrations with this rice cooker that's not working. My daughter bought a spa kit and it was supposed to have many pieces. At least 50% or more were missing none of the nail polish or other manicure items were there and that was the whole point of the item. And the box was sealed with additional packing tape so you know the owner knew and just decided to do that anyway to sell it knowing it's missing a bunch of the product. Pretty shady imo. Imagine buying one of those more pricey items at the side of the store like the espresso machines are expensive. Vacuums and then having it not work like this. RIP OFF/ SCAM ARTISTS

The lady working on Sunday was very rude. Sum stuff was not worth 5 bucks. The items outside were ready for trash. I went last year and the store was better organized. They had clothing for 1 dollar and items for 3 and 5. Disapointed.

Verify products before purchasing. They won't refund or exchange, regardless of if your purchased product is missing components or is faulty.

In my case, I have purchased a few products that were either missing pieces or just outright didn't work, including two diffusers and a portable bluetooth speaker, among other things.

Despite this, most products are functional, I'd say 50 to 1, and the amount of money you'll save shopping here will greatly outweigh any mishaps. This store is a hidden gem.

Honest review:
The place is cool.... you find returns from Amazon, Khols etc.... however check items as they can be damaged and or missing pcs
Some finds are great and depending on the day you go.
However the mexican older dark skinned lady who works on the weekends in the afternoons is not the greatest worker. She is dishonest and steals from her boss. I have caught her several of times taking items and hiding them behind the register or next to a big couch by the register and saying customers can't take those items and she later buys them at a cheaper price. She also hides and holds items for her friends and does the same for them. This is the 2nd time she charges me in cash and leaves items behind which I then go to tell her she left it behind and conveniently she doesn't recall and states u paid cash and we don't offer receipts for cash so... i will inform the owner and have her get back to you after she checks the cameras. I asked for the owners phone number and she refused. She insisted on telling her herself and didn't even want me buying the item and instead waiting because she wanted to take it. I insisted and paid the higher price due to her slip up.( her forgetting to put my item in the cart was her fault and leaving it by the couch) so even though i checked on Sunday she refused to have me pay the $5 & said $8 + tax and card fees because it was by her stash of items. She overall is very un trustworthy and ripped me off not once or twice but 3 times. Watch out ask for a recipe, count your items, check them, and just keep your ears and eye opened. It's unfortunate because I don't even think the owners know what she does. If not handled, accordingly I plan on reporting to the county for taxes fraud and not reporting everything.

The owner needs to value her store for example
The items if they’re broken, useless, throw it away be more organized I see nothing but junk also She prices the items like retail stores the other thing the older lady is there darker skin with make up she just stares like this nasty stare makes me uncomfortable I hardly even go and yes you have to watch but no these lady just stares very uncomfortable owner you need to let your staff know they are making the customers very uncomfortable by staring to hard not ok that’s why I hardly even go second if it’s trash throw it away don’t over price items the ones you have by the walls

This is a smaller store but it has a surprising amount packed within. You have to look items over carefully to make sure they don't have a handwritten price on them that's different than what you were expecting but I've saved a lot of money shopping here. I will definitely be back.

Place is really tiny. You can get luck with some items but it is true about the owner increasing the price when an item looks a bit valuable. They also do not clean the bins. Items from a week ago were still there and there were some adult toys and items and underwears so it was a bit disgusting tbh. I suggest wearing gloves.
