I hear many of the Ann Taylor and Loft stores are closing or have closed this year. Perhaps the remaining ones have to take up the slack.

I touched a lot of sweaters, slacks, and blouses but did not try on any after seeing price tags.

I occasionally shop at Old Navy, mostly for women's casual shirts. The quality of the clothing is OK, and the prices are low to moderate. During my most recent visit, this store had a full selection of clothing for all genders and ages. I saw sale signs advertising 30-50% off that made most merchandise reasonably priced. One recommendation for improvement is to organize the clothing racks. When I was looking at racks of women's clothing, I was in my section for size small, but sizes of medium and large were mixed in. Otherwise, the employees did their jobs.

Although some booths were empty, many other booths contained merchandise, and I had lots to browse over a long time. I saw dozens of locally owned shops that sell merchandise such as clothing, accessories, soaps, candles, greeting cards, holiday decorations, throw pillows, quilts, picture frames, lamps, fudges, and much more. Some of the products were locally made, while other products were made in countries such as China, Vietnam, India, and Korea. I chose to buy a magnet from one shop and fudge from another shop. When I approached the checkout counter, two employees were ready to ring up my purchase. Unfortunately, they could not get their computer and printer to print a receipt, and they made me wait several minutes. I never got a receipt, but I do not plan to return the items anyway.

There are hand baskets at the front of the store to collect all your goodies and cashiers at the front for when you are done. Varieties of merchandise include clothing, jewelry, soap, art, fudge, candles. I found myself skipping past the usual things that one can get anywhere but paused at eye-catching displays and, surprisingly, found myself stopping, touching, and admiring plenty of the clothes that were stylish and unique. I like the concept of individual sellers having a sectioned off space.

Karen, the…read morestore manager, makes shopping at that location extremely uncomfortable with both her unfriendly disposition and ad hoc credit card policies. My wife and I both feel like she follows us around the store after we politely decline an offer of help. When we check out using the card reader that faces the customer(which is designed specifically so my card doesn't leave my possession), she always asks to see our credit card, even after we present our PLATINUM MEMBERSHIP card(which she coincidentally forgets to scan so we lose our points, so we've called customer service with our past two receipts to have them manually credit the points to our account). She then asks for ID, which I understand once in awhile is ok, but every time I shop there, it's the same story(and I've watched her ring other customers up without checking signatures on credit cards or ID'ing, so why me? Is it because of my accent?). MY WIFE AND I SHOP THERE ABOUT TWICE A MONTH AND EVERY OTHER EMPLOYEE OTHER THAN KAREN IS FRIENDLY AND RINGS ME UP WITHOUT A HASSLE. After my wife complained to me about how uncomfortable Karen made us feel last time, I got Robin, the regional manager, on the phone and asked for clarification on store policy and an apology. Karen called today and gave the most insincere apology I've ever heard(it was more a slap in the face than a conversation to clear things up) and cited her level of discomfort calling me since no customer has ever complained about her before. Her ID and card policy is something she only does because someone stole her credit card, not a store or company policy she said. I ended the conversation after it was apparent she didn't empathize with my position as she saw my issue as a mark on her perfect record

When I said, "No," there was no apology. Although she had spent 10 min chatting up the previous customer, I received none of the niceties that customer had received, not that they're really important. No tissue paper wrapped around my clothes, no asking if I wanted the hangers although she had handed a bunch to previous customer, no asking if I wanted the receipt to hold or in the bag. I am clean, neatly dressed, and actually fit the profile of a typical Ann Taylors customer so I can't see why she acted so nonprofessionally. If you want personal treatment, try J. Jill across the way.
