This is a great Michaels location. I know they have to follow pretty strict corporate guidelines so…read morethere isn't a lot of difference from store to store when it comes to selection and such. However, the thing this location really excels in is customer service. The staff here are great at identifying the difference between browsing and hopelessly lost. Today I was looking for supplies for a craft that took me all over the store and I had not one, not two, but three different staff members help me find what I needed. Seriously impressed. The same goes for checkout: the staff are always helpful with coupons and suggestions. I've never had anything but great service here. The reason for 4 stars rather than 5? Mostly corporate issues that I understand this location can't change. Michaels is terrible for making you feel ripped off with their constant coupons. Obviously everything is incredibly marked up. NEVER go there without a coupon. They almost always have one for at least 40% off a single item. Sometimes they even have ones that cover your whole transaction.

Everytime I go into this store I'm let down, it's like opening a fridge for the fifth time in an…read morehour just hoping something will show up but it's always empty. Unless you are a crocheter or an office worker there is nothing good. Not only do the products suck but whenever I go to check out there is no one at the till and there always seems to be a problem with the self checkout. I'm a huge crafter so it sucks that this store is terrible.

Cassey, the manager, of Micahel's is amazing. My grandson was taking his helium balloon home for…read morehis birthday and it had not been tied on properly by the store clerk, so the balloon flew into the air before my grandson could get it in the house. He immediately burst into tears. So I returned to the store with only the clip that the balloon had been tied onto, explaining what had happened. The original store clerk who had tied the balloon onto the clip said I would need to buy another balloon. I asked to speak to the manager. When Cassey came out, she said "Pick three balloons to replace the one that got away." She then proceed to fill them all with helium, tie them tight together, and when I took them home to my grandson, he was more than delighted. A very big thank to Cassey who has made a little boy very happy. Great customer service. Will definitely recommend to all.
