SalePlace — Local services in Balch Springs

Upon walking in here I was taken aback at the obvious selection just from opening the door. But this place is soooo much more than what you see upon opening the door. This place not so simply put has every single kind of ribbon you can think of. Feom think to thick from sheer to solid from glitter to silk to printed and beyond. The trinket, mums, silk florals, cake decorating supplies, florist supplies, mum making supplies, to anniversary, baby shower, many different themed birthdays holidays and beyond. Weather you’re there to waste an entire afternoon lost down just a couple aisles or you’re running in there with tunnel vision determined to go in and get only the three items you need and nothing else you’re sure to find what you need. They have list of helpful staff and even if you go in and the check out line is snaked around the store up and down a few aisles and you’re now contemplating getting that ribbon and making a bee line out the door, don’t risk it, for one the secret security will snatch you up and send you to the ban island never to be seen again but more importantly the line moves fast. I was looking around and by the time I was ready to check out I was third from the next to pay. A half hour before they would have been maybe 45-60th in line. This is most definitely a hidden gem that I wish I had found sooner. I actually found you word Of mouth from a Sweet lady in a Joann’s fabrics store a couple days ago. I was looking at their empty ribbon shelves just needing some police themed ribbon and she told me about you all. I do wish you were a bit closer to the DFw more on the FW side but then again maybe it’s better I can’t make it to you on the daily as I may be even more broker then I am now. Except I am a full time crafter and your store at my disposal closer would make so much sense. How about opening a location this way? I actually don’t have enough going on in my life I’m happy to franchise from you? Have your people get ahold of my people that would really be just catching my name is Jessica Hawkins Joshua Tx and look me pm let’s do this. I look forward to hearing from you very...

Went on a Saturday. I looked online before going and realized(afterward) I should’ve ordered some items online since they showed sale prices with free shipping. The items in store weren’t on sale. 🙄 I went on a Saturday so it was crazy packed. Could barely walk down the aisles. But they were staffed accordingly. No one offered to help. But, there were plenty of supermoms willing to help each other. I heard some moms asking others for opinions and ideas. Very sweet customers. I didn’t experience any vicious moms - so that’s a relief. I was a little nervous going in because other reviews said the staff was very rude. But I never saw any staff member even speak to a customer except at the registers. I was there getting mum trinkets because they sell them in bulk. The ribbon prices are somewhat reasonable. But if hobby lobby has a sale then plain ribbons are cheaper there. They do have ribbons you can cut and a much wider variety than hobby lobby. They also offer more backings and bulk flowers. Overall, they have a lot more things for mums. So, everything I was looking for they had. They also have the Texas shaped mum backer 🙌🏻🙌🏻 and btw it’s cheaper than the one...

Be prepared. Prep EXTREMELY WELL in advance for homecoming season. Because this is THE PLACE for your needs. Know what to expect. Be patient with the other customers. We all have the same goals. 🤣

I wish it could be bigger because in the high season, it's really crowded when you want to cut your own ribbons for a single mum (or two). But I know to expect that this is a seasonal store. Yes, half is dedicated to just 3-4 months of the high school football season. The other half is for general part and cake decorating. Pricing is sooooooo much better than the "big box" stores and in my locals, it's like they've all stopped selling mum supplies. In Texas for goodness sake. And in Mega Mum territory no less.

Thankfully they've got the checkout process down to a T. Line is long, but goes quick. They have extra staff. Do they look over your head? Yes. Their pricing inventory is up behind the...
