And my husband asked him what he was going to do with them and he said he had to send them back to HQ. So not only did you lose a sale tonight I will never darken your door again.

This store started like thirty years ago, trying to bring mountain culture to Iowa. I'd say…read morethey've succeeded and are definitely the go-to for any outdoor retail needs in the area. They've got the big brands like: Patagonia, Marmot, North Face, Columbia, etc. When it comes to apparel that will withstand a trip to the Alps (or who are we kidding, a January in Iowa City :D) they've got you covered! Five floors of retail ranging from -- apparel, footwear and equipment. Items for boating, fishing, cycling, skiing, running, golfing, hunting, climbing-- almost anything you could do outdoors, they have something for. For as much as they have in the store, you'd expect it to the be cluttered. But it is very easy to get around and find what you're looking for. They did a great job organizing items and utilizing each floor of space. (*There are a lot of stairs! You've been warned.*) I can't say I frequent here often, but when I do-- I leave with what I came for. Pricing is fair but I honestly go straight to the sale rack when I'm here. (I've always been a fan of the sidewalk sales during the summer. Always finding a new pair of shoes at a great price!) Staff is VERY knowledgeable and welcoming. The location is stellar, with the ramp right across the street.

For example - last winter I spilled battery acid all over my NorthFace winter jacket - the kind that goes down to your ankles. BUT it happened just late enough in the winter that Active Endeavors was gearing up for one of their annual sales, and guess what? I got a replacement jacket for nearly 50 percent off. Huzzah! It was a win for me because I got a new coat, and I had the opportunity to support a local business, which I love doing. Active Endeavors also has a killer shoe selection - I'm not sure if people know this, but it's worth checking out!

How have I never reviewed Scheels?…read more I am grateful to have this location. With two kiddos that are active in a lot of sports, Scheels has come to the rescue a time or two. (Specifically, when I realized my son didn't have an adequate batting helmet for baseball mere hours before his first game of the season. I was able to order online and pickup no problem. He is insanely proud of his golden helmet, might I add.) This location expanded during the pandemic and has a ton! Hunting, biking, fishing, skiing,... a robust Iowa Hawkeye apparel section... shoes, apparel-- you name it! Honestly, my favorite spot to shop Scheels is online. I got some amazing Fornia clothes on clearance. My blazer I got is legit one of my favorite things and I spent less than $10-- what a steal! I also got some great Mud Pie Christmas decor super cheap online. It's open daily, parking is a non-issue. Staff is always so friendly and knowledgable. As I mentioned above, don't forget to order online easily for pickup.

My kids grow like weeds. They always seem to need new stuff. And I'm thrifty, so I shop at…read moreKohl's. Because I can get quality, name brand, trendy stuff on a budget. Honestly, with so many coupons available -- I make a point to not buy things unless they're 75% off or more. Which may seem crazy-coupon-lady-esque, but it's very doable. You may wonder how I shop so cheap, well Kohl's clearance is my bread and butter. Savings start at 60% and go up from there. But best yet, you can use additional coupons (like 30%) for more money saved! $20 earrings, were $2 on clearance-- bought for a whopping $1.40. I avoid buying shoes or electronics at Kohls. Coupons are typically harder to use on brands like Nike or Adidas. With that being said, my kids rock Converses with the best of them... they have amazing deals on this brand even if they're not eligible for other promotions. 5 Reasons Kohls is Rad 1. Get cash back up to 12 months after purchase and in-store credit beyond that. 2. I always lose receipts. If you use a credit card to make your purchase, your shopping history is stored in the computer for a full year. Full-purchase price back, no matter the card. 3. The Kohl's credit card is instant savings. Exclusive coupon codes are sent often to cardholders-- again-- these can be used with other coupons. 12 times a year this coupons are sent. 4. You can use up to four promo codes at a time. FOUR. One sitewide+two department specific+Kohl's Cash. Or, one sitewide+three Kohl's Cash. You can't use more than four codes total. 5. Forgot to use a coupon on your last Kohls.com purchase? Just email customer service with your order number and promo code. You can be credited in the form of the original payment. I've always had good customer service online. Not as ideal interactions have been had in the store. Parking is a non-issue. This particular location is easy to navigate but often disorganized. It typically has some cool Iowa Hawkeye stuff and literally all the essentials my growing family needs.

Kohls hired a company called the retail equation. This company has convinced Kohls to deny returns…read morethat FOLLOW THEIR POLICY. I personally have never returned anything without a receipt and on time. Suddenly they said I couldn't return a DEFECTIVE purse, ordered online, with receipt. I DID NOT get a verbal warning. In the past couple of years I shopped for my elderly grandmother, my two kids, myself, my husband so maybe use some critical thinking skills when you look at a list of returns......maybe they are for multiple people in a family. I admit, I did things like purchase 10 pairs of shoes so my 95 year old grandma could find a pair that were comfortable. I did the same for clothes. I told the cashiers exactly what I was doing. I also admit I returned 9 pairs of shoes and multiple items of clothing and explained to the cashier why. My grandma can't go to the store like so many others that are home bound, so congratulations you have made it harder for the elderly to get things they need from your company!! Shameful! I also did the same for my mom who had Alzheimers. Some of my returns were because I received dirty and /or defective stuff from orders online. Lack of packaging is why for most. Delicate items like bras came snagged and dirty thrown in a box. I received sizes I did not order. Do you expect me to keep wrong sizes? I did order some things on accident because the items were in my cart. My bad! I pointed all of this out when I returned the items. How exactly are we to shop online without having returns when the store doesn't have it to try on or to look at colors and styles? I am now stuck with a DEFECTIVE purse. How is this even a business tactic? Who would think it is a good idea to not allow valid returns abiding by the company policy? Customers won't go back concerned it will happen because no guidelines are provided. Kohls refuses to tell customers how many VALID returns are allowed which is extremely unethical. I did the dispute process which is a joke. Kohls confirmed I had too many returns. How many is too many.....no one will ever know. Are you forcing customers to keep merchandise to increase revenue? That is sure what it seems like because I am not a criminal or committing fraud.
