“A paradise for noncommittal fashionistas on a budget”, this “teen hot spot” chain peddles “cheap” “party clothes” and accessories that may be “poor quality”, but then they’ll “only be trendy for a few weeks” anyway; young things willing to “plow through the mess” and endure “rude salespeople” are rewarded with “astoundingly low prices” and the occasional “interesting” “impulse item.”

In between “the rudest salespeople” and the “messy aisles”, this “circus”-like chain has “all the charms of a bus station”, but pricewise you “can’t beat it for staples” “for your bedroom, bathroom, living room, dining room” and kitchen; at select locations, the “new gourmet food department is worth checking out”, and since ‘dirt’ is the operative word at this dirt-cheap discounter, “wash anything you buy here before using” it.

“Darling clothes from France for baby” and kids that “really hold up” are the focus of these “lovely” chain links with a Parisian pedigree, where you can find everything from “chic”, “one-of-a-kind” dresses and coats to “beautiful” bedding for the nursery; still, a miffed few mutter that service can be “apathetic” and are put off by “laugh-out-loud prices”, suggesting “catch them at seasonal sales” instead.

“Bensonhurst babes [and dudes] know how to work it with style” and now that this Brooklyn staple has expanded, so do Boerum Hill and Park Slope trendseekers hot for premium denim from True Religion and Citizens for Humanity and “great” pieces from labels like Ben Sherman, The North Face and Triple Five Soul; add in “cool” Adidas and Puma “sneaks” and Frye boots and you’ve got a shopping experience that’s, like, wow, something else.

Browsers love that “you can play” with the “large inventory” at these “mass-market” “electronics supermarkets”, “one-stop shops” for “any device that plugs into a wall socket – from refrigerators to computers” and “all kinds of gadgets” in between; still, critics complain the “name is a misnomer” (“wait for a sale”) and say “good luck finding help” since the “hit-or-miss staff” is often “nowhere to be found.”
