“Founded in Philadelphia, PA by Tom Vellios and David Schlessinger, Five Below is a chain of specialty discount stores that sells products geared towards tweens & teens for $5 or less. However, you'll find some items for younger kids and adults too. They also have a $5 and above section with nothing over $25.I've been to the Glendale location and this one is more spacious in comparison. The employees were friendly and helpful. I was there at around 3 p.m. and the shelves were neatly stocked and organized. The store carries just about everything - party supplies, art supplies, books, clothing, funny Tees, beauty, fitness, electronics, snacks, and more. It's a great resource for when I need small gifts and a good place to purchase items that you don't want to spend too much on. Plus, you might also fund a great $5 bargain. *Self-checkout available. Bags are 10 cents each or bring your own.*Located in a shopping plaza so parking is convenient.”

“I've always loved daiso for their cheap and random stuff. There's usually assorted cool stuff that you can get here like Christmas ornaments or picture frames for cheap. Common necessities comes at a reasonable price here as well. Arcadia Daiso is no different and can be found in the upstairs parking lot of Burlington coat factory.”

“Daiso is a franchise of 100-yen shops, similar to the Dollar Store in the U.S. They carry a wide range of products at an affordable price. The company started as a street vending shop in Japan and was called Yano Shoten before morphing into Daiso in 1977. Daiso now has locations in 25 countries.Apparently, everyone knows about Daiso except for me, so I decided to check it out. The store was well organized and stocked. Shelves were lined with cute merchandise & knick knacks from Japan. Of course there were some Sanrio & Disney characters. While browsing around I noticed everything from stationary, kitchenware, beauty items, clothing, and Japanese snacks. I can see why people like to shop here - most items are $1.75 and nothing is over $15.25. The prices are displayed in Yen but there are conversion charts throughout the store to help you figure out what things cost.The day of my visit I ran into fellow Yelper Aprille C. She told me how much she loves Daiso and frequents the store to pick up her favorite mango drink. I did find a few useful items. This location is in a large shopping plaza, so parking is plentiful.”

“You can find pretty much all kinds of things, I go there for electronics and a few candies. May not be the top of the line items but they sure can help you out of a situation. So needs a charging cable over 20+ dollars when you can get one for less than 10????”

“Just left this store, mind you it was a bit chaotic with everyone scrambling for Christmas gifts and so many great deals. I felt compelled to acknowledge a very helpful young associate named Emmanuel. It was amazing how calm, friendly and courteous he was to every single customer that was ready to checkout. Everyone. Whoever hired him made a great decision because he is exceptional in his role. I also wanted to acknowledge the other associates although I don't know their names BUT one of them said a friendly "welcome" when I first walked in. Overall even though the store was Christmas shopping chaos, it was a very nice experience. Thank you Emmanuel and the team!!! Keep up the great work!! It is very much noticed and appreciated!”

“It was good to see the various products that were discounted for $1.75, or if not then still a relatively affordable price. If you're ever shopping for kitchenware or stationery, Daiso is a good place to shop at.”

“Imagine you find two versions of the same album you like on vinyl. One of them is a bare picture disc in a disposable plastic sleeve and the other is a mystery disc inside a traditional cardboard sleeve. Surprisingly enough, the fancy bare picture disc is a few dollars cheaper than the properly sleeved album. Does that mean the sleeved album also has a picture disc inside?Well, I didn't have to imagine any of this. It actually happened to me! There I was: flummoxed, baffled, almost discombobulated. Well, not really. It was something of a head scratcher though so I asked one of the employees there if she knew what was inside the sleeve and she didn't but she googled it! I mean I guess I could have done that too and maybe I should have but still, it was an excellent display of customer service that moved me enough to write this review. For what it's worth, the album was The Black Parade by MCR. Those who know, know lol. I ended up getting something else, though. Not only that, I ended up returning it some time later because I never even opened it because streaming lol. 5 stars out of 5!”
