The store is huge, the selection is varied and extensive, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is convenient with plenty of parking.

Otherwise, a wonderful experience as always, with very reasonable prices.

When everything is $5 or below, what's not to love? While the GF and I were waiting in line to…read morepurchase our gift wrap, we heard a lady say that she spent a few hundred at this store. Most likely an exaggeration, I still wouldn't be surprised if that were the case. In addition to gift wrap, they have a bevy of options for gifts including toys, books, and more. It's the perfect way to pad the Xmas gifts during the holiday season - certainly in quantity, though in many ways, not in quality. Cashiers were friendly and the store was laid out in a way that clearly appeals to the mass consumer in all of us.

Going there gave me a panic attack. i was normally shopping, then went into the corner of the store…read moreto tie my shoe since i didn't want to get into anyone's way. Then a worker showed up, that's fine. normal, right? no. my shoelace kept getting messed up so i went in the corner every time. she was there-- every. time. literally every single time. i asked her if there was a problem after seeing her 6 time, and she said "nope, just cleaning up my store." odd. at this point i didn't wanna be in the store, so i went to go walk out and saw some other workers. i told them about my experience and what happened, and the 'worker' turned out to be their boss. they said they would talk to her. those workers at the front of the store are angels. and yes, i can see how going into the corner of a store 6 times as a teenager can be a little suspicious but her watching me made me anxious, which might've made me look more suspicious. just know, if your a teen wandering around this store, you might get watched. those 2 workers were angels though!! they valued my concern and i saw them talking to her after i walked out.

Unfortunately I didn't see the parking spot for curbside (it's by the entrance from Tittabawasee) so I went inside. Front and center there is hand sanitizer and stickers on the floor to recommend how far away to stand in line to check out. It was a little difficult to decipher where to pick up an order but the cashiers were happy to get it for me. They offered to take the frames out to the car for me as well but I didn't need help. Good customer service and I'm glad to see they are doing their best to enforce safe standards.

Word on the street is this is that place for Hippies and weirdo's that like swords. I've heard it…read moreall.. "oh, you mean that weird store, with the junk." It's not junk. It's called handicrafts, crafts made by hand. Most likely hands of skilled crafts people from distant lands. I'd guess most of it comes from South and Central Americas. But yes, they do carry some funky items like wacky looking candles, strange edged swords, knives and such. I dig handicraft items such as the bracelets, anklets and neck pieces. Here they keep many of these in large bowls with many pieces overlapping each other. Lots of this stuff can be purchased for as low as five to ten dollars per item. I've shopped here a few times and realized a few things. The counter staff are usually unaware as to what or where the stuff comes from. General knowledge only. Many of the pieces I've purchased in the past fell apart within a few uses. Very important that you test out the strength or elasticity of the pieces before buying. (Pull it, stretch it and twist it) I have a few that fell apart and since this place is located three hundred miles away, there's nothing I can do with them. I have one men's bracelet (purchased here) that I've had now for a couple years purchased for $5 dollars which is as good as some pieces I've picked up at festivals in Chicago which came overseas from Ghana. The last time I was in Saginaw the mall was looking bleak, so I hope this store stays around for some time. Often time's jewelry made from wood or other raw materials are hard to find with a decent price at American craft or beading stores. These pieces are usually exported from countries where they are made in mass quantities and the price will always be low.

The selection is a little smaller than the bay city location, but you will still be overwhelmed with options when you go in. The girls were helpful as usual. I also didn't know that they stay open late a few days a week which I thought was kind of cool. When you get there, you don't need to 'check in' with the desk. Find a piece that you like and start to scope out what colors you want to paint said item. Pro tip: the color example tiles are Velcro backed so you can move them around to compare with other tiles. They will also have you stick your name and date on the bottom of the piece. The workers will get you setup with 4 or 5 colors to start. They also have tape, smaller brushes and sponges up at the counter. Once you pick a spot, they come to you with your paint colors. You can refill on your own or have them help you. Your choice. If you run out of time, you can bring your project home with you and visit again another day. Once done, they will have you pay and get your contact info. It takes about a week to get them fired but they call when they are ready.

Hopefully that changes in their new place. Would like to try them again sometime with my soon to be daughter in law and her mom!! Would even bring out of towners with me too!!
