SHINY, CLEAN SOUTH RENO DOLLAR STORES FEATURE BARGAINS ON SCHOOL SUPPLIES AND MORE

Posted on 15:34 by Unknown

Recently heard at a fitness class in Reno’s South Meadows area: “That new dollar store is really nice!  It’s a dollar store where I don’t have to fear for my life!”



I don’t think I’ve ever feared for my life while visiting a dollar store, yet I concur that J & J Dollar Store, which just opened in the Village at Double Diamond, 750 S. Meadows Pkwy., Suites 108-109 (next to Smith’s Food and Drugs) is more attractive than most.

Remember that scene in the movie “Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion,” when down-on-her-luck Michele (Lisa Kudrow) got a job at a dismally dumpy dollar store in L.A.?

J & J Dollar isn’t a dump!  It’s bright, clean and well-organized.  And while no dollar store is going to qualify as a place to “see and be seen,” if you’re looking for bargains on school supplies, craft supplies or common household items, J & J could be a smart stop.





Note:  On my first trip to J & J, a sign on the door stated that debit and credit cards were not being accepted.  The cashier told me that this was a temporary situation.  She wasn’t sure when their card approval system would be functional, so until you know that the issue has been resolved, bring cash.

If that’s a problem — or if J & J doesn’t have what’s on your shopping list — another nice, clean dollar store is located just a few blocks away in South Reno: 

Dollar Tree at 9760 S. Virginia St., next to WinCo.



Happy hunting for dollar deals!
