I looked at some of the tables and some of the my Favorite sense we're only $2.95 each yes on sale!! I love to save money on my favorite perfume bath foams. I love it. So when I entered I could have the fragrance of the finest perfume style bath foamy Of all my favorites. I indulged greatly very happy to get the sales that I wanted and encountered a very friendly sales lady that rang me up since they were about to close of course I'm going to make another stop hopefully this week so I can buy more. They didn't kick me out of the store yet so I was very happy to have purchased what I did at a very low price. It's all very organized you can always find everything you're looking for the place is immaculate very clean everything is arranged perfectly the candles are to die for if you have it bought those they have a long-lasting perfume type of fragrance and fill up your room smelling divine. So today I'm giving a 5 star review I highly recommend this location yes and they're very kind and they will help you all staff are amazing.

None of them interacted on the chat or answered my questions. I tried two more times and was disconnected both times. I also called the Customer Service and get this. The gentleman that barely spoke English wanted me to just pay for the broken candle and offered to exchange it for a different scent because didn't have this one in stock (and it happened to me before) and charge me for the new candle. How does that make any sense? I don't think I'll ever purchase from Bath and body Works again.

I saw so many wonderful gift choices for the next time I'm in need of a hostess or birthday gift. My daughter also loved the cute knickknacks and devoured her unicorn fart cotton candy in minutes. Also the ladies that work there are the sweetest.

    I'd like to start by saying that it is an honor to be the first man leaving a review for Oh Yeah!…read more The ladies who have left reviews before me already know how great this place is, but today I'm directing my focus towards the guys. We all know how tough it can be to find a gift for our wives every now and then. I find myself trying to get too creative with a gift instead of just getting something I know she likes. Well, gents, Oh Yeah! has it all. The best part is that all you have to do is ask one of the ladies in the store to help you put together some things that your wife would like and you end up with something way better than what you would have gotten on your own. Women know what women want and these women helped me big time. In addition to this, you are supporting a locally owned and operated business! Do yourself a favor and stop at Oh Yeah! next time you need to surprise your bride/girlfriend/fiancé/baby mama with something nice. These ladies will not let you fail!

    You need any votive candles, tall candles for ofrendas (altars), Mexican blankets to keep you warm…read moreor lay down at Blues on the Green, or looking for Virgen de Guadalupe statues/rose spray/candles/all the things? You need to come here. I do not know another shop like this in Austin where Cantu's has been my go-to for the 21 years of me living here. This is a rare gem of a store in South Austin that you have to know about if you don't already. This is a very unique, quiet, and calm place to come in to whether you want to browse or you are curious about a consultation at Lee's Healing Center (located inside the shop in the back). When I need red mal de ojo bracelets (what are ojo bracelets, you ask? They are for protection! Look it up!) for myself, friends, or even for my baby nephew Cantu's has got them. Yup! She carries baby bracelets too to give to a newborn baby or any one who has small wrists to be honest. You will want to really take your time here when you arrive as there are so many things to see. Books, candles, prayer booklets, trinkets, statues, and tarot cards (also in Spanish!) can be found here. There should be no rush when you are here so take your time and gather all the things that call to you. Parking is located in the back of the small yellow building. Entrance is in the front off of S. 1st street. Be sure not to park in the convenience store next door where the sandwich shop is at. You will be towed! Be sure to say hello to Virgen de Guadalupe on the side of the building. The mural is beautiful (and old) but worth the stop to check out and maybe get a selfie with her. She really shines off of S. 1st Street!

I went into the store today to buy some candles and Mr. Cantu also told me that they did cleanses which interested, he told me he did an oil cleaning so I waited for him to be available after my purchase. We went into the back room and he explained that the oil cleaning consisted on oils and herbals sprays that have to be applied on the body and that he also used an egg and a lime. He also said that I needed to take my clothes off and only leave my underwear, which raised some concerns and made me feel really uncomfortable. I think that if he is going to be Performing this kind of ritual on a woman, there needs to be a woman practitioner in the room while this is being done And he should also offer some sort of gown or a sheet for the Client to cover themselves with. The whole thing felt very unprofessional. Has this happened to anyone else??

The flowers she brought were nothing like what had been discussed for over a year. You would think meeting with a vendor multiple times and providing the exact colors, type of bouquets, etc with pictures would be enough. Jean was so excited about the dark moody theme. It would be a first for her. Well - her actions, reactions and flowers came across as a "first" ever wedding. The price charged and the flowers received were way off. The excuse of I wanted to try something different is ridiculous. Who does that to a bride? Jean does. Pictures to prove it. Mind you red was not one of the colors... Left is what my daughter asked for and right are what JFK provided. You decide. Oh-we had a contract too. Beware.

I stopped for a free consultation at her office, which was located at our venue- which made visualizing and having everything on location quite convenient. It also eliminated an extra transport fee most florist tack onto the bill. She worked well with our budget, and made our arrangements work for what we were looking for in our price range. She truly listened to what I wanted and executed my vision beyond what I actually expected. Jeannie is personable and easy to talk to throughout the process. Not only is she sweet and kind hearted, but she was always responsive to all my communications. She took in my ideas, vision board, and pinterest images, gave her suggestions and insight for what works from her experience and brought my vision to life. I would recommend her to any Antebellum Oaks(AO) and non-AO brides. Jeannie, thank you so much for making our wedding look magical, and giving us the winter wedding aesthetic we wanted.
