I like to think of myself as a creative guy, an artist. There are 2 stores that I have to watch myself at. One of them is definitely Michael's. Good friendly staff, and more than a person could want. I usually do my shopping online so I don't impulse buy. I have a tendency of having squirrel moments. Things are just so shiny damn it! Any store where I can use my imagination and create things that are a reflection of me I'm going to enjoy. Michael's is there to help someone become who they always saw, a creative individual with hidden talents waiting to be able to become free. Art, crafts and just the little things they have makes that store special to me. To have classes and do custom framing or the tools to create something that wasn't there before are some of the reasons I return there. I worry about the future of stores like that. Because the first thing you'll see go in a moment of crisis is the arts. As technology has been overtaking the hands on crafts and arts we have begun also losing our great separation of animal and man. The abstract influences that aren't automatically seen from arts are the reasons for a non-indiviualizatiin of our current society that continues to hold down the people who are creating a great influencer of a dreadful future. Without art we digress back to an animalistic society. We must create! We must mold our surroundings! We must become art! We must...

I was walking up to the registers, and I asked if it mattered who I go to since two employees were behind two registers. The younger one was respectful and said that her light was on so she’d help me. The older lady who’s name is Susan, said “duh!” After the other lady pointed out her light was on. I was taken back by that and it completely ruined my mood. I checked out, got to my car and noticed that my 40% off coupon didn’t take. I went back in to the same employee who checked me out and explained why I brought my purchase back in. As she was looking into it, Susan decided to put her two cents in again and with a bad attitude said, “well it doesn’t work on books.” So I decided to just return the book and find it cheaper online. The employee who helped me, I believe her name was Teresa, she was great. But that Susan lady needs to be more respectful to customers. I probably won’t return because of how...
Read moreAbsolutely love this location. I spent a lot of time in the store since I haven't been in a Micheals in many years. I was pleased with all they have to offer, from the kind greetings, items, and the check out. When I checked out the cashier was so pleasant. She called someone to get an item I couldn't locate and while we waited she asked how I was doing. I said I'm tired. She responded by say yes me too. Then we talked about the on line rewards. I decided to sign up. In the meantime the associate She called about the item I wanted came over. He even brought multiple options. I was definitely impressed with their commitment to kindness and their jobs. I will definitely...
