I thought the first room was it then I continued to two more large rooms. She went out if her way to show me the most adorable bath and body care items she ordered for the Christmas holiday. As of 9/19/2023 she was building a new shelving unit and unboxing items like bath bombs and lotions - perfect affordable stocking stuffers. I picked up a few items for my daughters' nana's birthday. She is going to love the earrings, lip gloss in the shape of a wine bottle, & the adorable little knick knack we got her. All for just a little over $32. Plus she gift wrapped it for me!

*** clothing for girls & women only ***…read more Cato Fashion serves as a reasonably-sized fashion store in a separate plaza west of Walmart Supercenter in Hobbs. My first ever visit there was 1.17.2025. There was an exceedingly small section for girls sizes 8-18. The plus women's sizes engulfed half of the store. There were women's petite sizes and "regular" sizes on the other half. No one assisted my daughter when she tried a top on nor were the employees welcoming or particularly friendly. The dressing rooms were open, though. They had cute jewelry, belts, purses, shoes, tumblers, and sunglasses too. I walked away with a pair of dangling beaded LOVE earrings for $10.65, Made in India. Organized, clean store. Just disappointed in lack of size availability for me and my daughters plus the absence of high caliber customer service.

Lockin Stitch Embroidery is the outfit my company uses for all of our apparel…read more They have other items for sale in their shop like rally necklaces, stickers, and tumblers, but embroidery is their forte! Our technicians and electricians tend to wear long-sleeve shirts year-round, but we have also bought short-sleeve collared shirts and jackets because New Mexico has some wacky weather... even during the dog days of summer. The employee that greeted me at the front was cordial and prompt with our snap-back hat order of over $1,000. They all looked amazing. This time my bosses decided to order two variations of camo and some black hats with our Zia logo. I just saw some pullover vests on their Facebook page that look sharp - I might have to inquire about them.

I popped into Heart's Desire Thrift Store last Friday, December 6, 2024…read more There were a few spaces for parking available on the side of the building. Heart's Desire is Christ-centered recovery center for individuals in need. Their website: https://www.heartsdesireinc.org While I'm an advocate for this program and those like it, this review is for the thrift store. The folks working that day were seemingly busy as I was never greeted or spoken to. Basically all they sold was clothes. If other items existed, I surely did not seem them or how to get to them. Their selection mainly catered to women. And everything was sorted by color which was a bit aggravating. There were children's clothes too. Some shoes. I didn't browse the men's section at all if there was one. Most items were in good condition. Priced reasonably.
