Best candy store in Manalapan, New Jersey (NJ) 2024

Store was clean and the employees greet you when you walk in. So why the 3 stars? Well I brought in my own shopping bag to obviously hold all the items I purchased. When I got to the cash register the employee offered to take my bag so he could scan my items then put it back in. I obviously said sure. Next thing I know he is asking if I am purchasing the reuseable bag. His tone is insinuating that I am trying to walk away with the bag without paying for it. It is clear that they do not sell this bag because it is from the Los Angeles Anime Expo. It is clearly labeled...date and everything. There is not even a five bellow tag on it or a bar code! I told him no I brought the bag in. I have brought my Traders Joe reuseable bags into the actual Traders Joe store before the NJ bag ban started and not once have I been questioned. Employees at TJs have been trained properly and I suggest Five Below do the same. ~Mamaloveee
