“The only place on a budget to spend and buy bags cheaper than any store on and still be under a budget thank God for nerds that can help you with change of technology customers and included when you no longer have your best friend to help you when you need the new wire or new cord so you can get things done and complete a project or test”

873 Loudon Rd, Latham“I like Five Below. They have reasonable pricing and tons of interesting stock in the store. There is a huge selection of various products (in a relatively medium size store) including clothing, womans beauty products, odd electronics, pet supplies, candy, party supplies, and most important to me, toys.
I collect toys and also use them in creating my own art and swing by once a month to see whats new. I always find something I want. Right now 1980's toys and miniatures are popular, and Five Below has lots of both! I was so happy to find mini plastic lockers (with a little doll) that I bought four because I have an artistic concept they are perfect for.
I'm giving a four star review because of the greeting, staffing and overall state of the store. Every time I go in the store it is in complete dissaray with merchandise. Frieght boxes to be put on the shelves are on the floor everywhere (but I may just be consistantly arriving on days they get a shipment?) The shelves and pegs are absolutely packed to the point you can't easily shop and there is actually too much to look at. I know that sounds weird but it really is overwhelming. I'm pretty sure that inorder to see everything there I would have to stay overnight.
As far as the greeting, please stop making the staff scream "Welcome to Five Below" from wherever they are in the store every time someone enters. It's not neccessary because:
A: I know what door I walked through
B: it is completely not genuine and everyone knows it. There is no way it will ever increase my spending.
C: I cringe hearing it because I imagine the employees vocal cords are raw. Im sure there are lots of worker comp cases for that.
In conclusion, please hire more staff at a livible wage so they can stock and more genuinely greet me as I browse. I will still encourage everyone to go to Five Below because of their neat cheap items, but be prepared to stay a while or visit multiple times. They also have the biggest selection of candy and snacks so you won't starve :).
Enjoy your Five Below shopping adventure!”
“After going to the Apex Bumper cars I went to five Below and we saw Isabelle Jerome and Savannah Jerome we Brought Pink cup with baby cutie blanket is that nice from Savannah Jerome.”
“Got all the stuff I needed. All the self checkouts were closed except one. The employee there would scan and use the self checkout as if it were a regular checkout.”

120 Washington Ave, Albany“Went there for the first time ever today, and I am super happy. They sell manga, posters, graphic tshirt, toys, and candy at low prices. I bought the Death Note manga today :) Definitely coming again”
“Fun, clean, good flow, many products are $5 and $4 dollars. Really have to watch the prices. Products never stick around long. When they're in the front seasonal section on the right and only a few are left, they either get moved to the back or on a table in the front, on the left at a discount price. They also have separate standing racks that are separate vendors. Not affiliated as a five below product. They are a vendor product. Will vary per store. Be careful on the purchase.”
“A smaller fye that doesn't have the amazing selection of music and movies that I associate with it. Very friendly employees. They had my favorite Pocky flavor so I'm satisfied.”
