    Apparently they can't "adjust" glasses for you lol... So you have to go somewhere else if they're too loose or too tight they don't care

    Whenever I go there I'm surprised at how accurate the recommendations of the staff are! I usually…read moreget very picky and stick to the same styles and the staff at this location show me something new. Paul is friendly and very helpful. I usually tell my friends to seek him out if they're looking for something new.

    First I'd like to say the ladies at Mebane Outlet were great when I visited last week and thank…read moreyou. Now, the guy in Four Seasons Mall was obnoxious and condescending. I walked in and waited awhile because he was taking care of a couple, while waiting the customer asked his wife, how do I look in these and the employee commented, "The glasses look nice but not sure about the pose you just did." So on to me, he then asks are you trying to exchange glasses and I replied, refund, he then replies in a low voice people buy more than can handle. He then ask did you buy them here and I stated no at the outlets and he said of course you did, I then said I didn't know there was a Sunglass Hut at the mall and he replied, until you had to return them. Then he ask me if I only wore them for the weekend and now returning them and I stated to him that I never wore them after trying them on once. First of all, I don't have to explain how and where I spend my money to him. I make over $100,000/yr take home, and I'm not saying that to be snobbish because that's not me but he really pissed me off and knowing my temper I never really responded because they would've had to call security in there. I will not return to that location or maybe even another Sunglass Hut if they employee people that attempt to belittle their customers. And for the record, I returned them because after a conversation with Lens-crafters I wasn't confident they were able to add the prescription and Ray-Ban was able to do it, so I ordered them online directly from them. Recap: So a Sunglass Hut representative contacted me and I explained what occurred in detail. Let's just say that I hung up the phone feeling like they were buddies and nothing would happen. The representative offered me 30% off if used in the next couple of weeks and than stated he would see what the employee had to say about the situation, because there's two sides, yes I agree there are two sides but #1 he will not admit he was rude to a customer, #2 I never asked for or used the offered discount. This was or is not about money, I have previously worked CS and know that my customers are to be treated with dignity, respect and professionalism at which no time did he display any of those qualities. All I wanted was an apology but they decided to throw me a discount, have a nice day and never heard from again. Customer service means nothing to some of these big corporations like it use to when I was growing up.

    As soon as I knew I was moving to Greensboro, I looked for some of my favorite national chains and…read morefound them right here. The first place worth mentioning is REI. I usually park nearby, peruse the garage sale items, then go on a stroll around the whole shopping center. While I do like Whole Foods and will go there for certain specialty items, I tend to spend a little less at the gigantic Harris Teeter. There's a huge selection of clothing stores, you can get a legit (if pricey) massage at Hand and Stone, get your haircut, see a movie, and grab a great dinner from a wide range of restaurant options. This might be the most upscale shopping center in town.

    In the 80s and 90s, the mall we went to the most in Greensboro was Four Seasons Mall (now Four…read moreSeasons Town Centre). It went downhill and beginning in the 2000s, we went to Friendly Center instead. This has been a general trend in America where people have shifted from going to traditional indoor malls to outdoor malls, some integrated with mixed-use developments and/or repurposed sites. Funny thing is Friendly Center has been around since 1957 and Four Seasons 1974. Both have changed over the years, for better or for worse. I came here multiple times with friends and family in 2008 and 2009. With my friends, we'd go to stores like REI, Great Outdoor Provision Co, and Barnes & Noble. It was around these years that I picked up a MacBook for my mom from the Apple Store. She returned several times for One to One trainings on how to use various Apple devices. Since 2018, I've been going to Friendly Center for Schiffman's Jewelers, for the most part. That's because I got my wife's engagement ring and wedding band from Schiffman's and have returned for inspections and cleanings. We returned just a few weeks ago to see Frances, who just celebrated 45 years at Schiffman's. Last month, I accompanied my wife and sister to Sephora and Anthropologie. Other brands that were or still are of interest to me at Friendly Center include Brooks Brothers and lululemon. There are also a Whole Foods Market and Williams-Sonoma. Friendly Center was sort of patchworked together over the years, so the design and routing aren't ideal and getting around can be confusing. It would be nice if there were maps of the property on-site, but we didn't see any during our recent visit. Also, at the time of writing this review, the map on their website is down. "Couldn't fetch map data." https://friendlycenter.com/directory Depending on what section of Friendly Center you're in, it's sometimes better to get back in your car and drive to another store than it is to walk. This is because of the awkward, inefficient layout and lack of sidewalks. Again, not ideal. The brands are the draw. Check out Friendly Center on Facebook and Instagram at the links below. The mall is currently active on these platforms. FB: https://www.facebook.com/FriendlyCenter IG: https://www.instagram.com/shopfriendlycenter/
