bealls — Local services in Panama City

Moments after I walked into the store I voice came over the loudspeaker stating that a woman wearing all pink had stuck something in her black purse and that the cops were being dispatched. I just so happen to be wearing all pink with a black purse. I go to the front very angry because I'm alternative and people accuse me of things a lot that I don't do. They said it wasn't me, but it didn't stop the entire store for from staring at me. They said it again and everyone looked at me in disgust. So I just left the store without buying anything. Wish I could have shopped around but that embarrassment was too much. I'm in tears now and do not plan on returning now that everyone thinks I am a shoplifter. Bealls needs to find a better way to deal with its issues. Like actually having a manager that has the balls to walk up to somebody and confront them? The manager didn't even have the balls to come up and apologize to me. It's a shame, because I really needed some new work clothes and I was prepared to drop a couple hundred. By the way the lady that was the shoplifter was an old, disabled, blonde/ Grey haired lady... and she walked right past people and no one gave her the look that they were giving me. I'm just as disgusted with the customers as I am this sorry excuse...

The stores are a weekly stop for us as retired outgoing patrons. Good selection as better than average prices. Mondays are our day of choice due to the 10% discount . The men's shirts ( and I own many fishing shirts from there) Have changed.many times in the past few years I bought ready to wear, good looking shirts on impulse and wore them to go out the same night. NOT anymore,,,the shirts are delivered to the store wadded up in boxes and extremely wrinkled. Bealls is going through employment shortages just like most businesses are in our Panama City Beach area. Hard to get good help and it shows...

Some good deals can be had. But, cross reference prices as some cost more than online retailers. If buying name brand fragrances, i.e. Versace, Dior, Guerlain, Givenchy, etc. Check carefully. Counterfeit items sometimes end up at discount retailers. The glass will weigh wrong, the cap will have imperfections, labels will be carelessly placed, box will have smudges and other imperfections. The perfume will be weak or off smelling. Courteous staff, clean store, organized nicely. Very...
