Best discount store in West Lafayette, Ohio (OH) 2024

This place is a death trap, a lawsuit waiting to happen and I'd imagine a thorn in the side of corporate. I have learned the art of body contortionist having to flex and force my way in between heavy, product laden carts pressed back to back and piled nearly to the ceiling. I almost crushed a small kid between two of these "carts" while trying to get a curtain rod and wrapping paper. I cannot believe that OSHA isn't all over this place and frankly, that no patrons have been crushed while looking for cereal. Unfortunately, it's been like this for quite awhile now and I'm amazed if the store has maintained any level of profit to continue operations. You could go daily for something common, they will still not have it stocked weeks later. This is not an exaggeration. Im told it's due to lack of employees, yet I'm suprised to see three employees "hanging out" in the break room. EVERY TIME, NO MATTER HOW BUSY OR UNDERSTOCKED THE STORE IS. This is not covid shortage, I mean things like milk, cereal, bread... The employees you do see are rude and irritated by your asking for help or noticing that items are consistently charged for more than the advertised prices. As if their inability to do their job correctly is somehow my fault. I've managed several small family businesses, nonprofits and worked with Fortune 500's; I've NEVER seen anything like this. TLDR If you go for a box of cheerios wear something that provides a good level of flexibility to start your parkour training in; Bring a box cutter to open boxes to find un-stocked items you're in need of. Or just remember to stop somewhere else before coming home to the area. Try to survive! ~Ashley
