But every time I stop in to make a purchase the owner is so cranky and rude. She is not cheerful, does not particularly seem eager or happy to have your patronage and not at all personable. When in conversation with another customer, I mentioned that I recently retired after many years as a professional seamstress in the theater community and at The Minnesota Opera. The owner said loudly that she hated opera! Was that necessary? To hate what I did for ten years? She was extremely dismissive and went on to correct me in front of this other customer, which came off to me as highly arrogant, pretty hostile and demeaning.

She is super negative. Complains about her staff, her competitors, other customers, and is often quite rude. I stoped shopping there when they were near Como... because of how rude she was to a friend I was with. Years later I found, and loved the new place. But the last 3 times I've gone in she's just been a cranky complainer. It's really unprofessional and quite unpleasant. So sad.

This is a great source for students, dabblers and costumers. It is an even greater resource for those with lots of experience. Come often. The inventory changes every day. If you are into reuse-recycle-reinvent, then your purchase is so much the better for the world.

This is definitely a one off location. It's connected to the mall but the mall is pretty dead now…read more I feel like it's smaller than the most locations in which I feel like they generally don't have some of things other stores offer. I especially look for the seasonal diamond art and sometimes jewelry making items. They seem to have 2 checkout counters but i've only seen the closer to the parking lot open vs the mall door register. Line can definitely build up quick. Prices have went up a bit as well and while they offer a rewards program, they offer less/not as good coupons now.

It could be this location but overall, I have not had any luck or good experience with Michaels…read more"Curb Side". Why Michaels offer Curb side is beyond me; they never have enough staff scheduled to actually bring out your orders. The first time I sat in my car for 15 minutes, no one came. Then I went in and push the button for service, waited 5-10 minutes no one came. Eventually I just looked for my order and went about my day. It's really frustrating because no one offers to help even though the walk past you, and there's no clear instructions on how to go about picking up your curb side order. The main reason I do curb side is for convenience otherwise I would have just picked it up in the store myself. Anyways, my latest experience was terrible. I never received a confirmation that my order was ready, I had to track my order and found out it was ready for pick up. When I got to the store, I continuously looked for my item. Again, there are no clear instructions, the items are all over and anyone can take anything and go about their day. After looking and looking, there was no one that came by to help. I finally found my name on a carboard, and a piece of paper by it stating "Behind the counter". So now I'm in line, mind you Michaels has switched to mostly self-checkouts which I'm not complaining about, but they should still have registers available to assist customers who cannot or do not prefer to use the self-checkout. There was one person in front of me that has already been with the cashier for about 5 minutes or so. I was the only one in line, it eventually became very busy. I'd say there were about 15 people that bypass me to use the self-checkout, and now there were about 3 other people behind me waiting for the cashier. While I'm waiting, one of the customers needed help with the self-checkout, there was another employee aside from the one cashier who walkie for help. The Cashier said she'll be right there, which made ZERO sense to me. Why couldn't the employee who walkie help the customer, and how does it make sense that I have been waiting and now the cashier is going to help someone knew who came well after me. Luckily another employee clocked in early (I knew this because their conversation was loud enough for me to hear). The employee that clocked in early then switched the current cashier, and the cashier then just went to stand behind the counter to wait to assist anyone that may need help with the self-checkout, even though there was a line of customer waiting to be help. So now you have an employee just waiting while all these customers are also just waiting to be helped. I spent 30 minutes in Michaels trying to do a curb side pick up, how ridiculous does that sound? Granted the extra five minutes was because we needed to wait for the manage to approve a return. I got the wrong color and needed to do an even exchange but the cashier said they could because it messes with the inventory count. I've worked in retail and an even exchange doesn't mess with the inventory count since they have their UPC, but maybe Michaels inventory system is a bit behind... or too advanced? I haven't been in retail for almost 15 years.

I decided to break the ice and asked her where they had alligator clips. She huffed and stomped over to the spot and told me, "We don't call them that here. They are hair clips." and she briskly turned around and walked away like I had just asked for the dildo dept. The male clerk was no better. But I do have shoulder length hair so I guess I deserved it.

I swear it felt like the aisles were never ending. Hobby Lobby is like Michael's and Home Goods had a huge baby. Like Costco size huge. Everything was marked 60% off which was amazing and some things actually rang up as 70% off at the check out? We love a good deal! (Everything was cheaper than the dollar store in the same strip mall) The checkout line was like twenty people deep before they opened another register. I was foolish and didn't grab a cart so my arms were literally shaking by the time it was my turn to pay lol. Checkout employee was nice enough and friendly. I could tell they were exhausted from it being so busy. On that note I will also say that I didn't see any employees while I was shopping... so it's a good thing I didn't need any help?
