I had never been to a Hobby Lobby before and was surprised how many lovely decor choices this one…read morehad. I thought it was more of a craft store but it actually has tons of home decor in themed categories like USA, Beach House, Princess, Glam, etc. The store was clean and well organized and the employees were super friendly and went out of their way to help us find things. The cashier who checked me out was very friendly. One annoying thing happened though - they did not offer any bags (unless I bought a $1.50 "reusable" bag that was ugly and too big and I'd never use again) at all. Our state recently has an enviro-friendly bag mandate where you have to buy re-usable plastic bags for 8 cents. No biggie. I had JUST been to Target and Walmart and both of those places had plenty of 8 cent bag options to wrap my merchandise (I'd spent $400 at Target and $300ish at Walmart). Hobby Lobby didn't have a single bag available to wrap a canvas art "painting" in so I could get it to my car in the rainstorm without the paint getting wet. So, I had to put the item aside and not buy it since the cashier had no idea how she would wrap it so I could get it to the car without being ruined. While I wish I had thought to bring reusable bags with me in the car, I hadn't known I was shopping that day so I hadn't planned ahead. It seems a little ridiculous that Target and Walmart can figure out how to protect purchases and Hobby Lobby hasn't figured it out yet. So, if I go there again, I'll have to plan ahead and bring my own bags or not buy big things that don't fit in bags.

I am local to the area and for years have chosen to buy at Krampus to support local businesses. I…read morerecently called about a board game and was informed they could order it for me. I have had them do this in the past and gave them my info. They called me back later the same day to say that they had a 'like new' used version of the game in stock, and said I could pick it up today. I said sure and dropped in later the same dayw. The used game as 90% of the price of the new - and I found it new online for the same price - but again, I want to support local, so I went ahead and purchased it. When I got home and opened the used game was not the same as a new game. It was an older version of it, without the updated ruleset, without changes to the board and pieces. It was significantly different and less refined. We recently visited some friends and played the newer version of the game, the version that inspired us to purchase the game, the version I thought I was buying. IT was so much better than the version I was sold. I was a local, loyal customer. I could have bought the game online for the same price. I chose them, and they let me down.

Theres nothing more frustrating than not being able to play because I have to wait a week or two for a $5.00 part and pay almost as much for shipping. Tip: He will also order online for you. It might seem odd ordering online from a traditional retail store but I get the same price and I don't have to pay shipping. Further, if there's a problem he deals with it! How much is that worth? ;-)

If you don't know, us local nerds call this Gus's Place, and for good reason; it's Gus's store!…read more You've got comics, board games, movies, Warhammer models, D&D books and minis (a LOT of minis), posters, books, and trading card games. There's a huge selection of Magic the Gathering sets to choose from, not just the most recent couple of releases. The prices are right, and Gus is always willing to help you find what you're looking for. My only gripe with the place is the hours. They usually open at 12 (1pm on Sundays), and that's so late. This is a problem with all the hobby shops in town (and elsewhere, I'm sure), so I won't mark him down for it.

When Pokémon and Baseball cards became a thing again! This shop is located in the back of Northtown coffee just passed the main dining room on the left. They have a great selection of baseball, basketball and football cards. They've also got a big selection of Pokémon cards. They have single cards for sale, boxes of almost anything you can think of, wall art, as well as plenty of hard cases, protective sleeves, and storage boxes. The guys who work here are very knowledgeable about what they sell and aren't trying to upsell you on anything. If anything, they recommend the less expensive options if it means better stuff for you. It's a great place to go with your kids if they're starting to get interested in sports, and also a fun spot to stop by and just talk sports with other like-minded individuals. There's been more than one occasion that I found myself watching a baseball game for 15 or 20 minutes and here it just talking about in the season in general. It's a great trip down nostalgia road and a fun way to connect with other guys. Once a month, they host a card show in the main lobby. It has been and and continues to be a really fun event that my boys and I look forward to. They've also started doing Pokémon nights as well the focus on kids wanting to either learn the game and trade in a supervised environment. Its a fun evening and great for the kids! This is a wonderful addition to the community and a spot you should consider checking out!
