The store is filthy & unorganized But they are working on it. Prices r incredible. Be sure to check expiration dates.

I’m going to say it now-this place is fantastic for young children’s items. Sure, things are scattered, boxes are worn, some items may be missing from an open box and but hey-the prices cannot cannot cannot be beat. So many good finds, and if the kids break it-was only 5.00 so you’re not kicking yourself. The employees are very nice and helpful. Plenty of items and toys and shoes with the Target logo still on the box.

Definitely good prices. I think it can be sort of overwhelming because theres so much merchandise and the shopper must have a desire to treasure hunt. Theres got to be a way to organize this store better. Management should seek outside professional help in regard to organizing the store for a better experience for the consumer.

Dirt cheap was okay. It was seriously not as organized as in the past. Definitely can see a difference in things and how the store is ran. It is even difficult for the cashiers from what I saw, having to key each item instead of being able to key in a quantity when its the same price. I found some deals but it was alot of trash for sale, broken items being sold for 50.00 and up.

Edna is hands down the best employee this store has! I shop here very often and prior today I’ve never had a cashier even acknowledge my existence. Edna is so kind, personable and a huge asset to your company. The store overall isn’t clean or organized but that’s the thrill of the store. It’s a hunt for a deal!

Just wanted to say that Stacy at the Columbus store went way above an beyond for us. She helped us get the carts through the tricky door and then helped us get to the car with our carts during the break in rain. She is what customer service is all about! Cheers to her and the rest of the rest of the staff as they were also very nice and respectful, unlike other locations I have visited.

Today I went to the Milgen Road Dirt Cheap, as I do at least twice a week. Today business was not as usual but was very up beat ,warm and rewarding. Today the store manager Ms. Stacy was out on the floor. Spreading Holiday wishes among the customers, interacting with all. She and her floor staff was greeting and extending Holiday wishes to all that was shopping. It was military Monday but we all was included in the joy And cheers. I am a front line worker, that was tired and weary when I arrived however when I left I was praising God for a stress free moment of joy wrapped in small acts of kindness and words that lifted my spirit. All of us being a diverse group shared a much needed moment together ... without feeling the “us and them shadow”that the world has been feeling for a while. Again please pass this message on to this Store Manager for taking the time to share the joy.Thanks again and may God bless each one of them.Mrs. BeBe. A regular customer made to feel special.

Its just so dirty and gross. The bathrooms are absolutely horrendous. The womans restroom looks like it hasnt been cleaned in a couple years, its probably a hazard. Im glad I did not use the bathroom. The items are normal overpriced and already broken. And its insanely unorganized. Youll have better luck at the Auburn location.

Review №13

Found some stuff we could use. It was a bit messy to find stuff. Not really as much of a bargain as you would expect by seeing most of the merchandise. Could probably give a deeper discount. Example vitamins marked $16 so even at 40%-50% off you still pay the same price as in most stores. So not really a discount. If you need pieces to pieces of things this is your spot. Other than that it was good. Staff was very friendly. Checkout was ok. Their system does not allow you to ring up any additional items once cashier hots total. Found that out the hard way & had to ring up one item by its lonesome!!!

You can find something good yet the store is very disorganized, the lighting was very dim to where it felt dark, and store was very messy.

Review №20

A little cluttered and none of the clothes I looked at had prices on them. I only went in there cause I forgot my gym clothes and was hoping to find something quick and cheap. Cheap yes, but it wasnt quick. Only go in here if youre in the mood for picking thru clothes and have the time. They have other items too such as housewares. Remember the name, you get what you pay for.

Review №23

I dont understand the good reviews.Items are marked up (example medium sized stuffed animal 43.00) and then you have no clue what the price of the overpriced item is.Take it to the register to find the toy is still 17.99 after the amazing discount.The toy was worth 10.00 at most!I dont see how these salvage items are dirt cheap.The store looks like a dumping ground for junk.It is frustrating at most.If you want a frustrating experience while shopping, I highly recommend.I prefer a more organized experience with prices clearly marked without tripping hazards everywhere.Hated it.

Love, love,love, dirt cheap! Most people say its unorganized but it has gotten allot better. There is a cashier by the name of Brianna whim is absolutely amazing. She is one of the few whom is knowledgeable of her prices, letters, and codes, without looking at a paper or calling someone. As long as she is there I am shopping for hours.

Item condition could be in their worst ever. Also not customer focus since they reason on policies and not in customer satisfaction. Beware of what they sell you before buying for sure.

Review №29

This store sells things returned, unable to sell or discontinued items from other stores.If your into searching/hunting for deals this place is for you. Download the app itll help with prices if marked. Newly stocked or just came in store save your time most is basically retailer prices. There is those times when you find hidden treasures though.****Watch out not the best area of town. Saw men chasing after one another with guns. One took off and the other ran into Dirt Cheap. Be careful

The layout of the site is a hot mess, the pricing is confusing to figure out, and the stock is exceedingly variable. But, if they have what you want, or if you want what they have, youre going to get a great deal.

Review №36

When dirt cheap first opened, it was fun. The last couple of times have been a let down. It seems they increase the prices on many things before they discount them.They had a lot of home items I would like to have purchased, but you cant exactly test a chandelier, and paying over a few bucks for something in this store is a complete waste of money due to the no returns policy.Be super careful and test everything before you buy. While your at it, check with Google for the original price before you leave the store.Now, they often have incredible deals on cleaning supplies, brand name hair products, and laundry detergent.The store is quite dirty, unorganized, and just a hot mess in general. Be ready to take your time when you go. If you get overwhelmed in thrift stores, this might not be the place for you. If you enjoy digging through piles of junk and taking your time to find a deal, head to dirt cheap.I only have three stars because the prices have been laughable the last two times I was there, and its visibly dirty. The employees are as helpful as you can realistically expect.

I personally love this store because I enjoy great deals. The prices are awesome, but you do have to do a lot of digging if youre looking for underwear. Its not the most organized place, but youll love it if you enjoy bargain hunting. You know never know what you may find here.

Review №41

For the most part, this store is as the name eludes to. Many items are cheaper than department store prices. They make up for the low costs by limited staff and a no return policy. Shelves and bins are often disheveled. Many holiday items are 70%-90% off. Do not expect high quality but there are some fun/cute items. Expect to take some time to sort through the clothes to find the size/item you need. Some clothes are price as marked, others have large discounts; it can be difficult to tell the difference, until scanned at the register. If you are skilled at remembering average prices for individual items, you can score some great deals. Otherwise, you may pay more on some things, as there is an illusion on some of the sales. Its not very clean or well-organized, but if you have some time and patience- this may be the store for you.

Review №43

Great place...great stuff...and great prices...but what I love best is the app...it has a price scan option...genius...why dont all stores have this??? Other stores have scanners in a few places...you have to search the store to find one...and then you have to hope that the one you found works (usually they dont)...and if they dont you have to hunt down an employee or what for a price check at the register...but not Dirt Cheap...you scan yourself...from the app on your phone...wherever you are in the store...no hunting down a scanner only to find it doesnt work...you know right then what the price is...Dirt Cheap you have a customer for life!!!

Went for interview, great experience, went for urine test, background. Never heard back, went right to another job interview next day and got the job, so it wasnt my bkgrnd or urine, it was the unprofessional store manager who probably got someone cheaper. But thats fine, they dont pay well and the store is a mess.

After hearing good reviews from others, my experience at Dirt Cheap was disappointing to say the least. The store looked like a dumpster that you have to dig through to find whatever youre looking for. I found a slipper shoe I liked but I do have two feet. I dont think I will return. Ollies is so much more organized!

Review №47

There are some amazing prices to be found here if youre willing to put the time and effort in to find them. I understand its the nature of the store, but the disorganization can sometimes lead to a frustrating experience. Overall its a great place to find a deal as long as you dont mind burning time digging through racks and shelves.

This place has some good deals although it looks kinda like a good will but wears. You have to search through so much stuff just to find anything good. They have no return policy so if you dont check it before you leave you are out of luck. They also have buggies full of stuff for 10 bucks and you might find something good and you might not just have you take a chance.

Review №56

They sure have good prices but it seems to me that you have to go through all things one per one to find what you want or like..clothes is sorted and placed in no logical way... There are boards and tags marking zones like shirts/sport/sleepwear and also size areas... You just really dont find those things there... Not even the proper clothes size according to the tag on the hanger itself😒 have time and dig deep to get something. We did not even try to find something on shelves as all looked like total mess there.

They owe me gas money. I felt like I had walked in on them filming an episode of hoarders. To be fair, they did have a crew there doing their inventory but no store should be that unorganized. Lastly, ending on a positive note, after quickly browsing the store I did find what I needed after all...the exit. 😃

If yall had a group of stars well below the one star I gave them - that is where they should be. What a mess, been there twice - my wife and I thought we would give them one more chance. What a mistake that was; it was a bigger mess the second time. To make it worse, their competitors are right next door. Yep, Ollies is next door and they are always fully stocked, store is clean filled with great bargains and I have never seen any out of date food items at Ollies which seems to be the norm for Dirt Cheap.

Review №67

Good selection , Prices however store is messy making shopping a hard task at times. I feel like non return policy should be excluded from items that can not be tested in the store for example i was interested in a stackable washer and dryer however I could not test it in the store associates wasnt sure if it worked but was firm about there was no refunds or store credit if it didnt work once i bought it. I also recommend store hours should match other stores in shopping center which is 9pm

Waited and looked for someone to show up at the register so I could pay. One worker saw me and turned around and walked to the back. Left my stuff at the register that no one was at and left the store. How do they make sure people are not stealing if there is no one even near the front of the store?! Won’t waste my time to come back to this location.

This place is hit or miss with items. It is very unorganized. The prices are great, just have to check to make sure it’s not broken or used.

Very cluttered and messy, things were thrown all over the place. Most things I saw werent that nice. Kinda got the feeling Id get bed bugs if I even touched the clothes. They did have area rugs at great prices though, its just hit or miss if there will be any you like. Im sure you can find good things at great prices, you just need time and patience to sort through everything.

What a MESS!! But then again, thats kinda what you expect. Good deals, weird items, you just never know what you will find. Pretty good place for a scavenger hunt for sure or to kill time on a lazy saturday. They have pretty cool off brand shoes. They alsp have different types of over the counter medication but they always seem to be expired.!!!GREAT SCHOOL SUPPLIES CAN BE FOUND!!!I do believe that they have a no refund policy. I cant remember at this moment. I hope somebody can confirm that for me.

Unbelievable deals. Bought a four stroke weed eater for 35.00. Took a chance for parts I could use on one I already owned. The one from Dirt Cheap ran better than one I already owned. Make sure and test anything you buy there. These are store returns and damaged goods. Wish we had one closer to where we live.

Review №96

The store is a hot mess, even for a discount type store. Compare it Ollies right next store, which is neatly organized and clean. The deals werent that great and it was hard to find anything in the mess. Lots of items were broken and missing parts. You might find a great a deal here once in a while, but if youre a regular sale shopper, youll see a lot of the items here arent cheaper than you could find online with a decent discount code or sale - but theyre also banged up and all sales are final. Be prepared to hunt for items and double check everything before you buy.

Dirt Cheap is a good idea but its poorly executed. You have to ramble through bins to find certain items. The shelves are haphazardly stocked. You can find a couple good things if you have time to look through it all.

It is okay. I thought it would be a lot more savings on things but its the stop before the thift store. You have to take time to look through stuff for the good deals. But the store was clean and staff was visible.
