I love this HomeGoods in Saginaw. I am in there 2-3 times a month for sure. I was in yesterday, found several items and went to check out. I had purchased a terracotta sheep about 16” x 12”. It was heavy and I didn’t want to get any smudges on it before I got it home. It is an item that can be placed outside. As I was checking out, I asked the cashier if she could wrap it a bit to protect it. I did not think that it was an unreasonable request. She was at that time wrapping 5 small frames that I was purchasing. She then looks at me and said, “You really want me to wrap this? It’s cement, that won’t protect it from breaking.” Mind you it wasn’t so much what she said, it was the tone and crabbiness she delivered it with.

Will I go back, of course. Perhaps the cashier was having a bad day, I don’t know but I hope that in the future she is more pleasant and just wraps an item when the...
Read moreMost generally speaking, I've always had a good experience here. They have slit of stuff in an efficiently sized store. Note: if it matters to you, I opened one of their credit accounts for future discounts, and when I asked, they said they do not run a Hard Check on your credit. Unfortunately, they were mistaken and they Do run a Hard Check. I have excellent credit, and many people are not aware that if you have more than two Hard Checks on your credit in one year it can knock 12 to 20 points off of your score. It takes two years for a Hard Check to go off your credit, and they stack up. Just FYI if you're trying to improve/maintain your...

Also their public restroom is clean (which is a big bonus!) I'm a big fan of candles and recently purchased a few from their store and I love them. Also majority of our purchases were pet based, and I always seem to find something that has a good deal. You should come check...
