10/10 Experience - We did the candle making class for Valentines Day. For each candle making…read moresession you're guided throughout the entire process. After you check in at the register, they offer a complementary glass of Rosé or Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Juice. (You also have the option the bring your own bottle of wine) Afterwards, they show you the wall of vessels you'll make your candle in and a quick backstory about them and their multi-functional purpose. Then, they show you to the fragrance wall to smell and choose your scent. Then, they bring you back to the table to guide you through making your candle step by step. Once you start it goes by very quickly and next thing you know you're done! Takes about 3hrs for the candle to set and they let us know when your candle is finished. You can come back and they'll refill it for $10 with the same scent or a different scent. The class itself is $40 per person but a detailed guided experience, multiple vessel options, multiple fragrance options, and a pretty quick turnaround is well worth it!

They have a small amount of jewelry, some clothes and the rest is gifts that I would say lean towards lake-life-preppy. Lot's of choices for dog and cat lovers too. This time of year there is also plenty of Christmas themed items and most of it is cute and not run of the mill like you may find at a Target. I was able to pick up a few things for my wife that I know she'll like and again, no hassles!

I went in to shop for my mother-in-law's birthday and ended up buying stuff for me too! They have…read moresuch great gifts and all of the beach/lake essentials you need. Cute bright colors that are perfect for summer. I purchased a lovely necklace and a candle for a gift and then found myself some flipflops and a swimsuit cover up! If I could have afforded it, I would have bought all of the amazing art that they had hanging up. Such a cute store!

I love Bath & Body Works and since covid, I have moved to online shopping the most but there is…read morenothing like going into the store and smelling the scents. So I went out with the intent to shop for my home and get travel items for an upcoming trip. I found a scent I liked and got the full size for home and struggled to find the travel size for TSA. I asked a clerk who looked on the floor and in back. A senior rep shared they did not have it but they get trucks 3 times a week and they dont know what's on it as they have no control over ordering. I said can you please call the closest store and see if they have it as I dont mind traveling. I was told NO but YOU can call as they are quite busy. I said we'll if they are too busy for a peer surely they would be too busy for a customer. She looked at me blinked and went about putting away stock. I thanked her dropped my full cart at the door and left. Sadly shopping online has become the new normal as customer service is a thing of the past. I just wished she would've tried instead of the immediate no. When I used to come to them in the past, they would gladly call and if you a 10 percent off coupon for going out of your way.

I went to the bath and body works at concord mills to get some wallflower refills. I asked for the…read moretwo pack refills and the sales associate who assisted me told me they only had a few left because someone had returned them and she showed me where they were. I purchased the remaining packs and when I got home and opened them I saw that some were opened and in one box there was a whole different fragrance than what was supposed to be in the box. I called bath and body works and spoke with Courtney who told me to come back and return the items. I asked if they could offer something else for the inconvenience because not only will I have to return the items and but I will also have to go through the hassle of buying them online or picking through singles inside the store to replace the purchase. The rep I spoke with Courtney told me that was all she could do and gave me the customer service phone number. I called customer service and spoke with a rep who at first only wanted to offer me a return of the items in store as was offered by Courtney. When I told her I felt they should do more as I technically have to return these items and go home with nothing since they were out of the two-pack wallflowers in store she told me she would offer a free shipping on 50.00 coupon which would require me to spend significantly more than I spent initially. I shop with BBW all the time and was surprised at this level of service but sadly it was not my first bad experience with them. I also had a bad experience during Christmas where the Cotswold location gave me a gift card for a return with no balance on it so when I turned around and tried to use it immediately after getting it, the card wouldn't work. The store associate then told me they couldn't help me and asked me to stand to the side and call customer service myself because they couldn't override their own mistake! Needless to say it's time to stop giving BBW money!

There are tons of things you can do such as painting, oil making, and candle making. The challenge was we paid in advance for what we thought was the full experience. When we arrived it was just to enter the building. We still had to pay for the experience. We decided on candle making. I have done this with another group so this was a different experience. The young lady gave us a book to read and the supplies. No one walked us through the process. She did bring the wax and labels at the end. It was a quick session. I like having an actual experience and engagement during the process. Like my candle but was hoping for a little more. Maybe if I had a large group it would be different. The staff person was really nice. It just the entrance cost and hands off was my biggest challenge.

The staff there is very friendly and the store is so well stocked. The prices are very fair compared to other boutique style stores, but I'd say the Village Store has the biggest selection of home and gift items in the Lake area.
