The cashier quickly told me with a disrespectful tone and attitude that "They do not have a buy one, get one free offer nor have they ever had a buy one, get one free offer." This was a young girl/woman, and I guess I should have expected something like that from today's younger generation that have no personalities or respect for anyone or anything. I would have thought that Hobby Lobby being a Christian based business would train their associates to treat customers with respect. My wife frequents Hobby Lobby, but this experience has may her reconsider if she will ever patronize the store again.

It has most of my needs…read morefrom paint, to sewing stuff, to woodwork, metal work, Leather work, home decor, and is great for homeschooling families for school supplies and science stuff. The home decor is usually very cute. The prices are meh. They hike them up because of all their sales that go on. So, the sale items usually end up being regular sale prices especially the 40% sales. The only time in home decor it's an actual sale price is 60% off. All of this in my opinion. The staff is usually nice. The place is usually clean. I enjoy coming here.

The owner and his wife were very nice and friendly as was some of the older staff, but some of his younger workers needed some serious remedial training in how to deal with customers. Last time I was in there this black kid with short dreadlocks, just kept staring at me from behind the counter and not once did he say "can I help you?" A short time later, I saw him jacking his jaws with another employee and by this time I had enough. I walked out the door, went to my vehicle in the parking lot and ordered right then and there what I needed from Amazon.com. Two days later I got it and Amazon and Ebay is where I pretty much buy all my hobby supplies now.

Went for the first time today! Was really glad to find a local hobby shop still in business. There…read morewas a mask rule in place, and it was adhered to, which was really nice and a little unexpected considering how small of a business it is. The place is awesome, has tons of any kind of model you might want; they have planes, helicopters, tanks/armor, ships and submarines, cars, and sci-fi fantasy type things. There's also a wide variety of different paints, including Humbrol, Vallejo, and Model Master, lots of tools, and diorama supplies. The model kits range from vintage to present-day, and the sheer variety is really incredible. All different kinds of scales, from 1:144 to 1:24. John was a very nice guy and very helpful, he greeted us upon entering the store and asked if there was anything we needed, also made sure to make us aware of where everything was, and the sales on paints. He took a few minutes after we paid to tell us about the different groups that meet at the store, and wrote down some information for us on a business card. We will definitely be returning frequently.

I returned on 2/20/15 and he told me he wasn't going to allow me to exchange or refund the product Cause it's a known fact that no hobby store has a return policy. I asked him where is it posted in his store and he said it's not. I asked for a written receipt of what was purchased and he said my credit card receipt is my receipt. The credit card receipt doesn't help me if I want to resell whatever it is that he sold me. During this conversation he acknowledged the contents of the package were undisturbed and appeared unopened. He accused me of being a liar and he called me crazy when I became angry that he told my boyfriend that It was known about his return policy. He is very disrespectful, arrogant and dishonest. I WOULD SPEND THE EXTRA $5 AND GO TO ANOTHER HOBBY SHOP IN MOBILE OR GULFPORT. show less

My first visit was for some Dungeon's and Dragons materials (dice, figurines, etc) and I found their options great. With plenty to browse and decide from. A hard-to-find thing in person/offline. Since then, I've picked up several Magic the Gathering card packs. They have a very good selection, with multiple options to browse/purchase from to include full box sets. I saw other card games options, but I apologize I do not know what they were as I wasn't shopping for those specifically. The employees were great, in quick help finding what I was looking for and even giving ideas based on what I wanted. They also had several solo cards for purchase if you're trying to find something specific or build something... as long as you're okay browsing for it. BONUS: they give a military discount too! Would definitely recommend this location for your tabletop/card gaming needs.

I called beforehand to ask if they carried them and after two unanswered calls, someone finally picked up and confirmed that they do. When we got there, it was a super weird energy. Men at tables around the store staring at us like we had three heads (possibly because my sister and I were the only two women in the entire store?) and following our every move. Everyone working there was dismissive and rude. It took asking two different people to show us to the Pokemon cards, which are stacked haphazardly in white boxes in what appears to be a disused hallway. When we inquired about how they were priced, we got a curt, "It depends." No further extrapolation and the guy walked away after so we couldn't even follow up. My sister went back up to the counter to ask and the guy said he was going to "look up their individual prices on the app." Some sort of collecting app, I guess? I don't know about you, but I'm not going to stand at a counter for an hour while some guy google image searches every Pokemon card in my stack of 100+ cards. After looking through half of one box, we gave up. The unwelcoming energy, unmarked prices, and open-mouth staring patrons are enough to put me off ever coming back to Panda's Pair O Dice.

The loud out of tune and spastic music selection, loud TV with football, and 4 wheeler with his own music which was not only annoying but even caused the artists headaches. Good advice to planners of these types of events, alittle quiet please so those sincere appreciators can enjoy and shop. People with dogs should understand it's not a dog show, your dog loves you but not the heat of blacktop, crowds and noise. To those people who's parents never teaching the art of etiquette, using interrupting behavior makes you appear classless. It doesn't help in sales or elsewise.

Y'all....go. Just go. The Jubilee Festival is awesome!…read more I try to go every year and I always find the cutest stuff. Some of my finds included a Corian trivet shaped like a turtle, and I got our niece one that's shaped like a mermaid. I also bought a spoon made from Corian with a notch on it so it can rest on the side of the pot. I bought a print of the Middle Bay lighthouse painted by a retired fireman. I bought two prints of sea turtles painted by an up and coming artist named Gary Pope, Jr. My friend Bev kept telling him he should increase his prices before I paid for mine. She's totally right, but wait until after I buy mine. My favorite local photographer/candle maker was there selling her candles and wax melts and I loaded up. That's Lynn Jordan/Bon Secour Candle Company, in case you're wondering. I bought Jasmine a tutu from a booth that had everything you could possibly want for your pet. Of course I bought some pottery. I got the most fabulous and practical utensil holder with crabs on it for only $36! I wanted so much more and the prices were great. In addition to what we bought, we saw wood bowls, gorgeous and well-made handcrafted jewelry, paintings, clothing, address plaques and so much more. There were several food stands as well and some live music. This festival is not huge. We walked in in a matter of a couple of hours and saw everything. It's really a can't miss annual event. There's no admission and parking is free.
