Peebles offers some wonderful sales, small time shopping experience and great sales people without the hassle of the mall shopping. You can get many brand names that are known for quality without paying prices that are too high.
My personal favorite is their holiday section which boasts very reasonably priced items that are very different. The sales they run make it well worth the stop to see what they have.
My only bad experience is that I have had times when I've gone in just to look around and been disappointed with very few sales and therefore some overpriced items. Sometimes they have a bit of a slouch in products offered and aren't always up to date but other times their selection is awesome and they have the latest in trends. I think it just depends on the buyer and the time of year.
I've also found that if I'm looking for something in particular that everyone else seems to already have and can't find it anywhere.... Peebles still has them, simply because they're not up at the mall!!!!
I think the best part of this store is their great sales. Regular pricing isn't always the best but wait for the sale because they offer some great deals!

Ok, we all call it something different... for me it's VC Boutique. The reality is, it's one of those places that many refuse to admit they shop in (personally I love it and proud of it) but somehow always seem to find a bargain in.
My favorite department is the housewares. They have awesome deals on such things as pillows, curtains, towels, and my favorite candles. I am a candle freak and would often spend upwards of $10 on a candle without batting an eye but now that $10 gets me 2 or 3 candles that not only are nice sized but smell wonderful and burn wonderfully!
The only 'set back' of Value City is that it's very hit and miss. You may go in one day and find a ton of great deals with a bunch of great items to chose from in your size and style of clothing and then the next week go in to find nothing. They get close-outs and special buy outs so they rarely have the same stuff over and over. But that's also why you can buy an Anne Klein for 60% off the list price, Vans for 1/2 off the regular price and so on. They carry tons of name brands at drastically reduced prices.
You can walk out with an outfit of name brand items for a fraction of the cost of what you would pay at the mall or elsewhere. The tons of buses in the parking lot every weekend are there for a reason!!!! The tourists know about our great asset, you should too!!!! Shop the VC Boutique... ok, Value City!

While you're out there in the mall fighting the crowds for the specials they're running on Black Friday, don't forget to stop in at Bon Ton to grab some of their spectacular specials!!! One of my favorite places to shop for Christmas decorations and just walking into their holiday department will put you in the festive mood!
So if you're hunting for all the deals at the Mall on the biggest shopping day of the season.... take a moment to reap in the sweet scenes of Christmas at Bon Ton!
They run some awesome, unadvertised specials for Black Friday too! So don't put the store on hold because you haven't seen their big ad!

Value City often carries extra electronics items during the holiday season and now's the time to check them out!
They have some great brand name items for literally pennies on the dollar compared to the same thing purchased at other department stores.
What can you find?
Try a CD player with AM/FM Stereo for just $20!
Need a portable CD player to take along when you're hiking? They have at least 5 models to chose from listed in their recent sales flyer and range from $10 up to $50.
More and more electronics come in daily and while the holiday season is here they tend to stock tons more!
Right now they're having a great sale on 5 different styles/brands of televisions. Some include both the VHS and DVD players in the tv while others are simple smaller versions, great for the kids rooms!
Value City is a great place to find those discounted electronics any time of year, but the holiday season makes it even easier as they stock up to give you the best prices in town!

I love hitting the Dollar Tree for a variety of inexpensive and fun little gifts. Creating Valentine gift bags for classrooms is not only easy to do with one stop shopping but now affordable! Have a small group of nieces, nephews, little brothers & sisters or friends that you'd love to just give them a little something? Dollar Tree offers everything from light up toys to special Valentine erasers and pencils, knick knacks and more!
This particular Dollar Tree always seems to have a ton to choose from too! They're always getting new stuff in!

Most spices can be found at this Dollar Tree so why pay more for your spices for holiday baking!? Sprinkles, cinnamon, sugar, and so many more can be found for a dollar and sometimes 2 for $1 here at the dollar tree!
While they carry mainly the 'typical' spices, there are some very different ones tucked into the shelves also.
For this price it can't be beat! Why pay 3, 4 or even 5 times more for your spices at the grocer?

Don't get dragged down by high prices anymore! Big Lots has such a great array of items, everything from seasonal to household items to electronics and more you can find some of the best prices around on some of the best brand names!
This particular store is fairly well kept and while it's not ever going to be like shopping at an elite, classy mall type store it is completely acceptable and worth the trip in order to save some big bucks!
The part I love most about the Big Lots Stores is that they have some of the neatest items for seasonal, such as Halloween items, St. Patty's day stuff and of course Christmas items! Toys are somewhat limited but they will often get some great stuff in around the holidays that can be purchased really cheap!
The bad part of the Big Lots Stores is that they rarely 'always' carry an item. The store is truly based on their ability to get odd lots of items and special buys to present to their customers for low cost. Don't bargain on being able to get the same item over and over again unless it's simply by chance!

Ok, we all know that WalMart usually knocks the socks off of everyone else, better prices, blah, blah, blah. It's time now to discuss some customer service.
The Asbury Road/West 23rd Street Walmart has become known for 2 things; being more expensive than any other of the WalMarts in Erie and having the absolute rudest clerks and cashiers around.
It is rare that I've gone in that store and had a good experience. Why I continue to go there is beyond me, other than the simple fact that it's easier than driving all the way across town or dealing with Peach Street traffic.
The cashiers act as though they're doing you a favor, so much at times that I've actually gone over to the service desk to complain. Not that this seems to do much good because I've yet to even remotely even experience any remorse from anyone in the stores for the conduct, including the managers.
This store is definitely not worth it's weight in crap! Rude service, slow service, higher prices than any other store in their chain in the Erie area and basically only has the fact that they are a lot more easily accessible than the others for most west side customers.
It's time they woke up and saw what's really going on in their store. Either change their workers' attitudes or don't expect people to come there and spend their money.
