Opal's Hallmark Shop — Local services in Saint Clair Shores

I continued shopping at Opal's after my mother died a few years ago because I have dear memories of all the laughs we had trying to out do each other finding the funniest cards. My mother loved this store & for many years bought all her greeting cards, holiday cards & gifts for her grandchildren, & even found cute clothing there. At times I found the store to be a bit poorly stocked in some basic card store items such as Guest books & note books for memorable events and even small selections of wrapping paper & ribbons. Today was my last trip to Opal's because of one sales clerk. I asked a polite young saleslady if they had a restroom & she said yes but someone was trying on clothing. I am older & it goes with the territory that some of us have unexpected need of comfort. It was obvious that I was struggling. As I stood @ the back of the store an impetuous clerk almost barked about what I needed. Was I too close to the stock room for her comfort. She emphatically said I was not permitted to use the restroom. I would not have been upset - furious if she hadn't smirked amusingly. It is increasingly evident that many young people have little respect for generations other than their own. I wonder how long it will take them to understand why they aren't given respect or more...

Opals Hallmark in St.Clair Shores WAS my favorite store. I could spend hours in there shopping. Unfortunately I couldn’t stay another minute in that store last night. My daughter and I came in the store (Not realizing it was near closing time 7:50pm) one of the workers walked towards us without greeting us(obviously she was upset we came in late) the cashier yelled out “can u take a count how many people are still in here!!”) she yells back 2! At that point I took the hint and left!...

The note on the door says: Now Hiring!!! Friendly, Outgoing, etc etc....I hope you're successful in hiring some employees with these qualities because the ones that you have (I encountered 3) were not. Although I was the only customer in the store, I was never acknowledged with a hi or can I help you. I just walked around the store aimlessly looking for my category for about 10 minutes. Will not...
