Bickel's Surplus, Altoona PA

Great visit this time around, not really busy, great prices, very friendly staff and atmosphere

Not bad depending on what you're looking for. Some items priced higher than local retail stores. My fiance and daughter love it though.

I love this store, travel to the area to visit family and always stop hear.never leave without spending something.

Used to love this store location but I wish they'd stop switching up their prices and combining items with different prices. I'll go to other location mostly from now on.

Bickels used to be a great store to get stuff for a decent price. Now your better off just buying stuff from Walmart for 5 extra dollars and not have anything damaged. Bickels let money get to them because you don't get deals there anymore its all priced just as much as a big retail store very disappointing

I wish I can put negative stars! This place is absolutely ridiculous in prices! Double prices and really rude people working there! Never coming in here again

We went to get food items as we had been there in the past. Appears to be a smaller selection, but they did have some things we could use. You definitely need to check dates if you have an issue using food past the arbitrary best buy date. Friendly and helpful staff!

Price compared and a lot of stuff is over the price of buying it brand new and not damaged.seems like a greedy place now, was better years ago. Won't be back. Cashier woman answered her phone while we were standing there waiting to check out, took my payment while still on the phone and didn't speak to us once.

Nice place too look around.like every other place prices have gone up.still like to see what they got in.

Take some extra money when you visit this store, because you walk in with a few items in mind and leave with multiple items. I love a good deal for my hard earned money!

The deals are just not there. Prices aren't great, and its not very convenient. Sorry 2 starry

Price are high for this type of store. You can get the same items for less at Walmart. Alot if things aren't marked with a price, the workers seem uninterested in the customers.

Had a lot of cool cheap stuff and their tent sale was very useful to gather school supplies.
While I was there though I was looking for stuff to bring to my family reunion and shine of the food/drinks were expired. (One of the mtn. Dews were expired for almost 2 years)

Very good place to find things cheap, stock rotates frequently and you never know what you may find here. More popular items tend to fly off other shelf however.

Prices are the same as the stores. Most stuff I can get cheaper at Walmart. NOT why you go to a discount store.

Never know what you're going to find. A lot of things are great prices (like the food, and are either only a little outdated or not at all). Some things are a bit overpriced. Still, fun to see what they have.
