Dollar General – JFK Circle- Dubuque, Iowa

My only complaint is the mess throughout the store. Each isle is filled with someone that doesn’t belong. If you go by the shoes thru the toilet paper isle, good luck. BOX after box. The balloon and party favors isle is the worst. BUT Ms. Cathy is such a vibrant, wondering employee and the rest

J & J Consignment – Dubuque, Iowa

So so so beautiful inside. SO much beautiful stuff, SO organized and well loved. Nothing can beat this. If you want to compare the other consignment stores within the area, DON’T. Just go to J&J. No disappointment, ever. And you will always find something – in any color! 🙂 The ladies are always sweet and

Walgreens -JFK- Dubuque, Iowa

This is my go to Walgreens, only because it’s the closest to my house. I’ve become close to a few pharmacy employees, otherwise I’d never step a foot in the store. I’ll break it down: 1) Customer service is 0. Nobody is ever enthused enough to help you. 2) Photo department never has anyone present

Kennedy Mall – Dubuque, Iowa

This mall is a 0. I unfortunately had to make a trip to Hallmark in the mall today and while walking toward my location, I couldn’t help and take in all that is Kennedy Mall now. I couldn’t help but reminisce when I was younger and what the mall was then. Such a ghost town

Hallmark- Kennedy Mall- Dubuque, Iowa

The store is filled with a lot of beautiful items. You could spend hours just walking around taking in the beauty. The prices are a bit high though, I must admit. But sadly, that’s as far as it goes. I went in today in hopes of getting some ideas for a gift. When the older

Books-a-Million (BAM) -Dubuque, Iowa

I’m a book-obsessed bookworm. So, naturally this place is where I spend some of my time. Today, I walked in with intentions of signing up for the BAM club thing since I wanted to buy a few books. WRONG. Not only was NO ONE at either registers location, nobody was around to ask for some

Walmart – Dubuque, Iowa

Is it even worth to spend time writing a review here? I’ll just cut to the major points filled with 100 % honesty, as with all my reviews: 1) Emotionless, uninterested, rude employees. 2) Unclean shelves with people’s trash (coffee cups, probably stolen chocolate bars, eaten) 3) Self checkout is just as bad as the

St. Vincent de Paul – Dubuque, Iowa

I can only complain about the smell of the building, otherwise I’ve never had one issue. My favorite part about this location is the constantly new items on display. Amazing prices, very very fair. The employees are a little rough, except this “new girl” that just started: she’s very soft spoken and sweet and is

Half Priced Book Store -Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Every book lovers dream store. My fave store, literally! I cannot get enough. I don’t even care about the hour and half drive to get here! Always have the best stuff, the latest stuff. Excellent staff always around, always checking in to see if you need anything! I can’t get enough. THANK YOU!

Office Max – Cedar Rapids, Iowa

It’s so clear why they are ‘out of business’ in so many cities. Customer service is 0…walked around maybe twenty minutes and not one person approached me. Didn’t have anything in stock that I was searching for, well of course I couldn’t ask anyone about it either. Such a sad waste of time. The only
