pOpshelf — Attraction in Gastonia

Extremely weird staff and announcement protocol. Stopped in ten minutes before closing to grab my favorite pen but they weren't where I'd remembered them, so I grabbed the paint and brushes I wanted too. I headed to the front to see if I had missed them somewhere or ask for help. As I got to the front an extremely loud loss prevention announcement came on and the Cashiers had to sound off that they were ok. I was the only customer in the store so I asked for my pens, bought my stuff and got out of the store. I was trying to find the next store I wanted to go to on the map, but the cashier seemed very uncomfortable with me just parked outside in a parking lot with other businesses and it was still 3 minutes before closing. The entire scenario was bizarre, and I won't go back into this store...

It was a clean & organized store. Most of the staff were friendly. Most items were reasonably priced, to date with current trends, & staple/standard/typical home items were also available for purchase such as cleaning supplies, kitchen utensils, etc. I did notice it appeared that some items were limited in quantity by comparison of displayed supply at other retailers but I'm not sure if that's more for store appearance & they restock often or only sell limited supplies by comparison. I definitely enjoyed the paper shopping bags & felt it gave a nice posh feel to the shopping experience....

Me and my family went in the store tonight excited to finally get to go in. we've seen so many commercials and ads for the store. unfortunately we had a unpleasant visit were watched the entire time and followed by the staff, peeking around the corner watching us and we felt very uncomfortable and profiled definitely won't be back sad to say. As the only African Americans in the store we were followed and watched the entire time. This shouldn't happen and this is unfair treatment hopefully things will get better for the store...
