Pier 1 Imports

I’ve been here a few times throughout the past year and a half simply ’cause this location is closer to me since it is easier to drive to since I live on Marine Drive. I have been coming here to get some sale home décor items for a few of my friends who recently got married and some whom have finally moved and took the plunge of trying to own a home and mortgage. I will be honest in saying that I wouldn’t spend regular price on the stuff but I am okay with discount. The store is well organized and the staff, when you can find them, are helpful to an extend. The last time I WAS in there they kinda followed me ’cause I guess I looked kinda shady to them.

This one is great for parking, own lot.
Good to visit when the traffic slows down at Costco.
The usual quality home décor furniture and ornaments. How dare people set up gift registries LOL.
20% spring sale going on.
bedroom stuff in back, right side.

When you work out in the middle of nowhere, places like these seem God-​sent. I loved how it smelled, how it looked and the fact that everything is on SALE!
Summer Clearance, I believe is the event at the moment. My colleague and I came to kill the lunch hour. We browsed the sale items and poked fun at the funny little things you find here.
When I got to the candles and oils section, I sniffed everything and when I found «First Rain», I froze. I had to buy them all. It smelled like the perfect bedroom. Too bad it wasn’t on sale. Did I mind? It’s sitting in my bedroom as we speak.
While I was there, I found some neat household items on clearance and bought a few things. I think this is the best time to come for anything at this place. They really put the prices down!
The staff members were very friendly. I had a few questions about sale items and inventory, and the girls were just happy to help. My colleague and I even had some fun with the poor cashier who was a really good sport.
I don’t hate this place. As a matter of fact, I quite like it. I wouldn’t buy furniture here, but it’s certainly entertaining to visit during a short lunch hour.

I hate going there! The staff, allllll the staff, will keep asking you if they can either help you or if you are finding everything you need! That’s too much «service»! Just assign one person to ask customers and the rest can be available to answer questions.
It’s not rocket science, it’s shopping!
A lot of the stuff at Pier One is «fancier dollar store crap», they have nice pieces of furniture, rugs, wall ornament and dishes but can be very pricy for the actual quality. I had to return a double layered dish, twice, because parts to assemble it were missing, broken and poorly designed.
