Hobby Lobby — Local services in Quincy

Updating my orgional review: sadly I've now seen first hand one of my friends designs ripped off by hobby lobby. And they stole another cross stitch designers pattern as well. Shameful + unethical.

They have a better selection of jewelry making supplies + cross stitch/embroidery supplies then Joanns however the coupons aren't as great. I come here because it is the only store in Quincy that carries DMC 1-35 and DMC varigated. I do like the storage options + candles but my biggest issue with HL is that anything that has an employee placed price tag has varying prices on the same items. Here is an example picture I took today in the store. All the same yarn, all the same color, all from the same bin. Each of the 3 skeins has a different price. Fyi the 2 I bought both rang up $6.49 (one was priced $5.99) And aside from that I had to remind the cashier to apply the stated discount in the ad/store didplays to the jewelry making supplies today.

Summary more selection than Joanns but less coupons, pricing issues and cashiers must be reminded to honor posted sales.

• I also once around Feb 2018 had a custom framing denied to me because the subject manner of my item did not align with the companies values, however one of the nice employees from the framing department later caught up to me in the store and helped teach me what to buy to frame it myself with their supplies because that employee felt bad I was turned away. That employee showing ne that kindness helped retain me as a customer after being rudely turned away by a higher up in the framing department. I did buy the supplies I was shown by that employee there and no longer try to get anything framed at Hobby Lobby because I don't want the embarrassment of being turned away again/to give money to a department that treats long time customers...

This is a corporate decision and NOT the fault of the Quincy Illinois store. I went there yesterday to purchase custom mats from the framing department. When I asked for the price using a 40% off coupon, I was told this item is now excluded. So it was going to cost $48.00 for a double mat. Needless to say, I walked out of the store without purchasing. I found a wonderful custom framing shop in Canton, MO. The owner is delightful, has many years experience, and the price for the exact same mats that are $48.00 at Hobby Lobby are $22.80 at her shop. Even with 40% off, the price is less expensive. I will support a local business. I hope corporate decision to try to make more money comes back to bite them in the rear end. I hope many more people will walk out of the store. Do not let corporate America...
