One star for candy that is it. Worst customer service EVER experienced in my life. I have worked…read morein retail for over 2 years, I have been a server and currently a nanny. I understand the value of greeting and treating your customers with respect and I will tell you that every single employee that works here has none of that. My mother has been taking me to this store since I was a baby. I am an adult now and every single time I go in there I still have to brace myself for what lies ahead. I would only come in for the sour belts because they many flavors to choose from. The same people have worked there all my life and have only seen a new fave once. Which leads me to believe it's family owned. But I usually get a scoffimg remark, or a bad look, I've even gotten laughed at in my face. Twice. The incident that just blew my mind that made me FOR SURE to NEVER come back: I was with my sister who only had $10 and wanted to get some candy. Her total came out to be $6 and asked if there was anything she could do make it cheaper. The older woman (at least 50) laughed in her face. I asked her if that was necessary. The she laughed in my face again. I was beyond furious at this point but kept quiet. Then the Cashier, with a horrible tone made a remark that if we don't pay for it then they trow it away. There was a stack of candy bags that no one bought that was laying on the counter and one was open like they eating from it already. I told my sister if she didn't want to pay for it then she didn't have to. That's when both of them got furious and the Cashier asked if "Are you going to be able to afford yours?" in such a snarky way. I responded with "Yes I am. And I've been coming here for yours and you have constsntly been disrespecting your customers and I'm not going to sit here and have my sister be disrespected" keep in mind there were other KIDS with their Families behind us so I kept my tone very quiet and collected. Then I was responded with the older lady in the back with her yelling (yes yelling, a full-on-open mouthed yelling with her finger pointing at me) that she wasn't going to get disrespected in her own store and that I needed to leave. Needless to say, never coming back.
