Very nice store…
Excellent
Lots of stock helpful staff. Located in a quiet place.
Good
Well this one looked alittle dingy. Just needs some paint and strip the doors or new tile maybe . Just didn’t look as bright as most the other ones I’ve been to. But don’t misunder stand it was clean . not spells or dirt or trash in the floor.
WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE
SHELF ALWAYS OUT OF STOCKS
NOT ORGANIZED
MESSY !! MESSY !!
THE OLD WHITE LADY WITH GRAY HAIR IS WORST !! I DO SHOP WITH COUPON FOR MY PERSONAL USE TO SAVE AND SHE HAVE NO ASHAME BAD MOUTH COUPONERS LIKE ME TO THE CUSTOMER SHE CASHING OUT (AND GUESS WHAT! JUST INFRONT OF ME !!)
SHE WATCH ME ALL THE WAY TILL I COME OUT TO THE STORE LIKE I STOLE !! IT MADE ME UNCOMFORTABLE!!! NEVER COMING BACK IN THIS BRANCH !! I DONT MIND DRIVING EXTRA MILE IF I CAN GET BETTER SERVICE TO THE OTHER BRANCH!!
When we rode bikes to the store and it was still daylight outside and we shopped for maybe about an hour, so by this time it was dark out. We were outside the store putting batteries(which we had just purchased) in our lights on our bikes. A lady from the store came out and said that the had complaints from several customers and asked us to move to the side of the store. So by the time we put all the items we just purchased from this store on our bicycle trailer and secured it we moved to the parking lot next door just to look back and realize this lady called the police on us. The only thing we did wrong was shop at this store! But never again, and I will be calling Dollar General’s Corporate Office about this.
Nice store. Big, clean and well staffed.
Lessons are given on the second floor which keeps the noise down on the sales floor.
Always great thanks Dave
Great guys- helpful

Staff was helpful well stocked and knowledgeable
My ex wife rented my sons french horn from here they were helpful. Then the ex quit paying on it. After trying to take over the account they sent a collectir to my sons school to harrass him then stalked my home till he came home and harrassed him while he was alone till he gave it back. Then i call to find out why any good business would talk and harrass children without an adult present they got rude with me told me i should apologize to them for being behind on account thats not mine after i offered to the manager gary to take on the debt. They claimed an adult was present however i have the video of the person talking to my son. Not good business people. Lost a potential customer ove a french horn they claim was worth thousands i have pictures of the beat up thing and i had to have it serviced by a reputable music company. I dont recomend people who would threaten and scare children. If you chose to do business here i would run checks on the people i would let around kids. Its really sad they came highly recommended.
My church dropped off an electric drum set to be refurbished and now they say they can’t find it. All that can be found is a pedal. How does a music store lose a whole drum set? BEWARE!!!!!!!!!
Just called the store on December 14, 2022 @1120am to learn from their products and service. Who ever picked the phone had no customer service training and his ways were to be totally rude. He treated me like if I was dumb ( does not seem to want new customers), I could not believe he was mad for asking questions. Ok, it seems I will have to spend my $4060 budget somewhere else. I had to write this review and tell everyone to be aware. I am so glad I saw the true colors of this place before spending a dime. Have a nice day guys!

Primera y La Última vez que visito la tienda !! No la recomiendo !! Luego de observar los artículos le pregunte a la empleada cuánto costaban 2 carritos hot wheels que estaban fuera de su empaque y encima del counteer y ella llamo a alguien y este le indico que eran a $2 dólares cada uno lo cual le dije que si !! Luego que le doy el dinero y hacemos la compra venta nos quedamos hablando de los carritos y en eso entra un muchacho ( el dueño) y le pregunta a ella que de quién eran esos carritos y ella le dice son de el que los acaba de comprar y el me dice y agarra los carritos y me los quita NO estos carritos NO!! YA ESTAN vendidos y yo le dije pero ella te pregunto a ti por el precio y ya yo los pague y el me dice son de un muchacho q los compro y está afuera y afuera no había nadie !! Siento que es una falta de respeto por qué me quito la mercancía de las manos!!
If I could give zero stars I would, so I have to settle for one.
Went to the store to buy an item listed on Facebook Marketplace that was priced for $10. Arrived early before the store opened, when I asked about the item the response was “oh no that’s not $10!”. After showing him the listing stating $10 he responded, “oh Facebook wouldn’t allow us to put the real price, so it’s just a blast message”.
Even if this item was $100, Facebook would have allowed whatever price you want to list it as. Even if this was the case the description should have stated otherwise
This is bad business practice and is considered “hawking” just to get customers in the store, which is illegal.
Employee stated they have other listings with inaccurate pricing because Facebook “won’t allow them to put the actual selling price”. I’ve never had a problem listing items on marketplace before from $1-10,000.
I will not be coming back to this store again and the sad part is, I was wanting to buy other items in store but they lost that business as well.
Post was reported to Facebook Marketplace as “inaccurate pricing and description”
Word of mouth goes a long way especially when they don’t realize their “could have been customer” is a frequent thrift and antique store shopper and is part of the consignment community.
Wow what a mess! It’s like paying to dumpster dive. Nothing is organized in any fashion. Prices are really high IF it’s even priced. Everything is dirty. No air conditioning and musty smell.
A tinny, too loud stereo was blaring and the owner was using packing tape over and over and over. Is he a tape tester for Scotch or something?!? The noise was so annoying that after fifteen minutes my husband was asking to leave. Shame the customer experience is nowhere on their radar.
It’s a very small space and you have to be so careful not to knock over an entire shelf of items just to look at one little thing – it’s really stressful. There are two isles in the store one was open and the other was being blocked by the owner, another pile of junk, and the packing tape … guess it was an Ebay order? If you want the public to shop at your store at least make it where they can walk around. At the very least.
Lots of Disney things priced extremely high. An ombre colored votive, glass, candle holder was $2.50. I can pay that for a new one at Target. A tool belt marked $30. There is no way anyone could resell anything they bought here at the high prices. Poor choice of store name if you ask me.
I’m pretty sure the fantastic reviews are shills.
Very disappointed, no plans to return.

Imagine my surprise when my husband was the one to point out this wonderful little gem!?! I actually didn’t have much time because they were nearing closing time, yet I was able to find some awesome stuff and everything was 50% off! I can’t wait to head back and finish shopping, I would highly recommend.
Love this place. The new owners are so helpful and amazing. Everything is at a great price also.
Great prices friendly staff
Horrible place.NOT A THRIFT STORE. They make up prices. Don’t go!!!
Drove 30 minutes out of the way on a Sunday intending to have a nice day doing a little thrift shopping, only to show up and find signs on the door that it’s closed on Sundays. Online hours need to be corrected before others also continue to waste gas money on this store like we did.
This is not a thrift store this is a bunch of con artists stay away
Came to this store from West Palm Beach to buy a collection of trains he had on Marketplace or she. Long story short he didn’t give me everything that was on Marketplace for the price we agreed and I left the store before noticing. Went down the road to get some gas to make my travel back to West Palm started looking at the trains to notice that he didn’t give me everything. Came back to the shop cuz he would not answer the phone and said the right thing to do is give me my money back and I give you your items back. You cheated me . At that point he proceeded to threaten me. I recommend not to buy anything from this store. I had to call the police. They put a no trespassing against me which I will never go back there again so it does not matter. But I will let everyone know that I can I can do not go to the store.
8. Jimmy’s Vintage Music
Address: 108 Main St, Auburndale, FL 33823 , Lake Alfred , Florida , United States
Jimmy’s is my all-time favorite place to shop for gear. I have a half-dozen key pieces of really great, true vintage equipment, that I treasure and are critical pieces of my gigging rig. When I call Jimmy about a piece of gear that catches my eye, he gives me straight, honest info about the quality, value, and playability of it. And his price is always fair and generally far better than similar gear on the broader internet market. Fair, honest, knowledgeable, and friendly.
Such a cool store, vintage guitars amps and I want stuff now
This is truly an awesome store. Jim and Chuck are helpful and polite and no one has a better selection of vintage guitars! Go JVM!
Great selection of guitars. Some stuff you will never see at guitar center.
Selection look ok but the owner is not very friendly and seemed in a rush to get either a sale or us out of there.
As far a I know, buying a new guitar takes time and testing how each one sounds before the purchase. The owner did not offer to test any guitar and when asked he was very reluctant. So, out we were to never go back.
Sorry….I was next door making a donation to the “Going to the Dogs” thrift store…the owner had two dogs from Cross Pass Pet Rescue…..Very nice shop with lots of quality 2nd hand boutique items.
I have done many transactions with Jimmy’s vintage music. I recently traded him a brand new Eric Johnson Stratocaster for a 1965 Gibson es 125. The Gibson had high action and needed to have the neck reset at a cost of $400, so he said.
I took the guitar from Florida to Nashville Tennessee to a luthier who says not only is the neck joint destroyed but the neck has a crack in it from over tightening the truss rod and the guitar has been in a fire. I am out $2,000 because of this.
I will not be going back to Jimmy’s vintage music at any cost.
I’m always up front with anything and everything that I sell and I let people know what the issues are.
I feel I’ve been completely screwed over in this transaction and I am not happy. When I texted Jimmy he called me screaming obscenities as if I had done something wrong.
There are a lot of other places to buy instruments other than someone lack of integrity.
I used to like this place but none of the employees or customers are wearing masks. Pretty messed up to wilfully endanger the community but that’s Auburndale for you.
Called in about a violin and the guy who answered the phone gave some wrong information. He was certain he was giving me the correct information but he was wrong. Do not recommend for any questions regarding an old violin.

Got to see a long time class mate while passing through on my way home from the library one night.
A well lite public place that is open 24/7
Great place to check up on laundry ☺
Love this place. Feels like home.
New washers!!! Dryers were great! Good location. Liked the music and the wall painting!!!
I lost my lighter on the roof here. My clothes are clean though!
It was fine
Sorry to see this old place like that.everthing is broken down
Decent place but the machines don’t get serviced. All the big machines flash an E7 error code which is a slow fill meaning the machine is not getting enough water so it’s not washing the clothes!
Necesita una renovación desde la limpieza hasta las lavadoras nuevas, necesita nuevos equipos, las maquinas de cambio de monedas lucen con mas de 20 años y solo funciona con billetes nuevos, quizás con una buena reestructuración y buena promoción el negoció puede crecer mas.

Benji installed a slim profile sub under my driver’s seat today and I couldn’t be happier. Benji really took the time and was meticulous with the wiring so my car looks just as good as it did before he started.
They are the best in town… Price on products and labor are excellent. they do mobile installs and tuning. See ben he knows his stuff. He is my go to at that store. ask for him!!! Ben. Please stop by and check them out. i will say you won’t be dissatisfied!!!! Ben installed all of this and more. all i did is call up the store and he planned the soonest he could. great!!!!
Benji is so helpful when it come to what I needed for my radio. He wasn’t going to stop until he made sure everything was done right. Definitely recommend him and this place for any car audio work and accessories..
Not there..out of business?

Parking is always plentiful. Will be nice once the construction is done and the new publix entrance to the store is complete. They have transitioned it nicely though.
14. Lavender ‘n Lace Tearoom
Address: 430 N Lake Shore Way, Lake Alfred, FL 33850 , Lake Alfred , Florida , United States
Beautiful property, the gardens are gorgeous. This family have built an amazing gem in Polk County. We took afternoon tea last week. Delicious pastries and sandwiches. Service was good, our server Chase was a delight.
Very nice restaurant and the food was delicious
The food is always amazing and the service is spot on.
The wait is long despite having a reservation and the space is a tight squeeze. And I did not enjoy having my back to another table with just glass separating us. One of our pots was in the process of steeping so the first few cups were lacking in flavor. The cake was fine. The place looks more traditional than most tea houses open nowadays. For the relatively cheap price I think it’s worth it.
it wasnt a typical tea room experience. dont go expecting finger sandwhiches and scones, you wont find them.
the food we did have was very good, and they did have a nice selection of teas that were tasty.
the dining area was very cramped, maybe trying to have 1 or 2 tables too many, squeezed together.
The grounds were lovely, pretty plants, koi pond.
Wheelchair accessibility: extreme angle ramp in and out of the restaurant, rough terrain parking lot.
I had a delicious lunch and a yummy dessert. There is a good selection of food choices and yes can you say dessert? Wow they all look so good it’s hard to chose one! I’ll go anytime!
So I am prepared for this post to be unpopular, but I really genuinely want to know what the appeal of Lavender and Lace is. In my opinion, the food was mediocre, very expensive, and the service was unbelievably slow. We had reservations at 11:15 and it was after 12 before we were served food. It was after 1:30 before we were able to pay. The tab for me and my daughter (who had a kids meal) was $61 before tip. I had the chicken salad croissant. It was way too sweet for my liking, but regardless $18 with a side of 3 thin slices of fruit for a chicken salad sandwich is absurd. I had iced tea my daughter split a pot tea with her friend, we were only given 1 refill on the iced tea despite our glasses being empty, our server did not offer another refill and we did not ask because the service was so incredibly slow. My daughter got kids nuggets, there were 5 nuggets which looked like frozen nuggets (pressed meat not chunk meat) along with a few bits of fruit for $12. The desserts were just ok. Mine was described as a cheesecake, but I would have considered it more of a cream pie. I understand when going to a place like this, the atmosphere is what you are paying for, however it was so loud and crowded there was absolutely no atmosphere to be had. Our server was kind, that’s about the only positive I can say. Crowded, loud, slow service, and mediocre, overpriced food. But it is so busy! Why? How is it so busy and so popular? I had really hoped for a better experience. I am sad we didn’t get it. When paying the bill we did mention to management the extremely long wait to which they said all of their food is homemade so sometimes it takes long.
Nice atmosphere, but that’s the really the only good thing I can say about this restaurant. Very poor planning for a large birthday party with reservation and 200$ deposit made way in advance. Understaffed on a Saturday for the amount of tables the place has. Took 1 hour from our reservation time to put in any order and another hour until we received just the table bread. Extremely small portion and virtually tasteless, especially for the price. Chocolate pie tasted like the frozen ones from the supermarket. Would not recommend, especially for larger parties.
No place for a guy

Karla is amazing!!!! She did my piercing and I didn’t feel anything!!!!
Super clean, and didn’t feel pain getting my piercing. Love it!
Went in to get a nose piercing. Inital experience was wonderful. Quick and professional. No issues at first. I bought the H2O salt spray as directed by piercer and did the spray in the morning and warm salt rinse at bed. Noticed piercing sinking into nose yesterday and this morning was half way in. Pushed it out but won’t stay. I can feel it going back in and bleeding everytime it does. Going back to piercer to get larger stud. Will give an update.
Update: went back to shop. They are Soo nice and professional!! Had to have ring taken out and will go back in 3 weeks to replace. Not happy that I have to wait but love the service!
Came here concerning my piercing and left feeling better plus with a lot of helpful information thanks to Melanie ☺️ Will strongly recommend this place
I went to get my septum and tongue pierced and the septum was good but my tongue was far up where the thick part of my tongue definitely not where it supposed to be after a week I couldn’t feel my tongue so I immediately took it out. And it was also crooked where it was to close to my blood vessel which it could’ve made to worse if they got it! Definitely not going back
No lo recomiendo.Aqui mi historia….. Era un trabajo grande, todo el brazo, parte del pecho y parte de la espalpa. Mi segundo tatuaje despues de mas de 15 años. Al principio todo iba bien cuando Rafa que fue el tatuador que me habian recomendado y el cual seguia en las redes sociales desde hacia mucho tiempo empezo a trabajar en lo que iba a ser el diseño del tatuaje. Despues de reunirnos varias veces me dice Rafa junto a Jorge Moreira que el trabajo lo iba a hacer Javier Castro porque el estaba mas capacitado que Rafa y en ese momento esa accion la vi bien profesional al cual despues me entero cuando ya tomo la decision de parar lamentablemente despues de una cuarta seccion que Rafa nunca estuvo de acuerdo con esa decision y que el trabajo Jorge Moreira se lo habia quitado… Porque pare despues de la cuarta seccion y no en la primera??? Despues de cada seccion al otro dia se lo enseñaba a mi esposa y amistades que tampoco saben de tatuajes y les decia lo frustrado que estaba por como se veia pero siempre me decian ” espera, lo que pasa es que se ve asi lo mas seguro porque no esta terminado” … Despues de la cuarta seccion un amigo que tambien queria tatuarse me dice, tu quieres salir de la duda? Y me llevo a donde un tatuador el cual ya sabia de mi inquietud y le dijo que queria ver mi tatuaje y el me daba su opinion… Cuando vi la cara de ese hombre cuando me quite la camisa por poco y lloro… El tatuaje no tiene arreglo, el tatuaje esta fuera bien fuera de proporcion, el tatuaje es de un arbol y las raices ni si quiera parecen raices y los colores del tronco parecen de camuflaje … Ya tomada la decision de no seguir con el tatuaje le envie varios mensaje a Jorge Castro ya que nunca contestaba el telefono solo mensajes de textos dejandole saber lo que estaba pasando y que me iba a remover lo que ya el me habia hecho al cual nunca me contesto ningun mensaje entonces me comunico con Jorge Moreira que ya estaba al tanto de todo porque Jorge Castro le habia dicho y me contesto de manera agresiva que para que me tenian que responder los mensajes si ya yo habia tomado la decision de borrarmelo… En esa conversacion que tuve con Jorge Moreira me da la razon en que esta fuera de proporcion pero me dice que hasta que no termine el tatuaje el no podia hacer nada! En serio!!!???? Le pague $350 por seccion un total de $1400 y me cuesta unos $3000 borrarlo como esta ahora mismo que no esta ni la mitad terminado imaginense si lo termino….Juzguen ustedes y pienselo antes de tatuarse en lugares como este….
I called the shop to make an appointment, I was told a specific time to come in, I can in 5 minutes before they time I was told. I then waited over an hour before I could talk to anyone about the tattoo I wanted. I contacted the owner to ask how can I make an actual appointment where I don’t have to wait an hour, the owner claims I didn’t have an appointment and I was a walk-in which was not the case.

I’m new to music and they were very helpful. Their prices are good as well.
Good music store, with great instructors
We love this store. Always friendly and knowledgeable staff…
This place is packed with goodies for a musician.
They have very many wonderful instruments and how to books to go with them. And sometimes even others who will help you to learn
Good place for find some stuff about musica like guitar, violin, chelo, etc
Their sales associates have the worst customer service I’ve ever seen.
After buying a very expensive clarinet. They would not buy it back after was told they would when I bought it. And it was only used 4 months, so it was in the same shape as it was sold.
Went here to rent an instrument for my son…girl asked us to fill out application they want to know not just who you are and account info but employer name and number as well as spouse name number and a friend or nearest relative. I have never had to give the name of a friend or relative to buy a car or even a house….its an instrument…after giving them all that info the girl was rude I asked for manager he wasn’t any nicer and still question us about employment why I do not know both me and my husband are employed I just started pulling out my DL, bank card CWP….I mean what in the world…its a $1300 instrument!

What a great church! The cathedral ceiling makes acoustics sound awesome. The preacher is truly a blessing and an inspiration, with a family oriented personality
Last year, members of this congregation drove supplies to us at Trinity Lutheran Church in Panama City, FL after Hurricane Michael. We are extremely grateful and thankful for your generosity and support for our community. Our food bank is still open and helping those in need because of partners like you – Thank you very much!
Inviting!!
I go to a focus group there on Wednesday nights at 6:30. Clean church and a great nursery for my 5 month old.
Great venue . God bless you and the ministries here. Christian action, study and prayer ring theough each person here. THE HOLY SPIRIT is among those worshipping and serving.
