Michaels — Local services in Topeka

By far the most disrespectful establishment I've ever unfortunately had to endure shopping at!! I realize I may fit the visual description of someone who may likely shoplift but the thing is, I'M NOT!!!! I was profiled and watched under a scope as if I had just committed a heinous crime!!! I even spoke up after many very obvious signs were purposely blatantly made audible which was to intend to stop shoplifting that I wasn't even committing!! I'm very artistic and love all arts and crafts and usually go to Hobby Lobby but decided to give Michaels a shot and was very quickly shown why it was a decision I'll never ever make again!! I would recommend that anyone with tattoos, Young and male did not go here unless you want to be profiled to a point where it makes you so uncomfortable that you won't even put your hands in your own pockets!!!! Absolutely Ridiculous!!! Not to mention the fact a Michael's employee told me there was absolutely no adhesive stencils in the store and which I went myself and found dozens of them inside the same store!! she was so focused on watching me and what I was doing and she seemed disoriented when I ask her the question cause she couldn't think about...

The staff was an incredible help. They pointed me in the right direction for what it was i was looking for and when I couldnt find it because they didn't have it, they helped me with a different approach for the sane result. It was incredibly helpful and eliminated an hours worth of me walking aimlessly to find another option. The only thing that was a little disappointing was the candy making section. They have a lot of wonderful stuff, however I am making my own chocolate, not using the melting ones, for my own candies. There options for making chocolate candies did not expand that far into the craft. They had the melting chocolates but none of the options for a base thst I could have used to make my own from scratch.

I know they are a craft store and that sometimes for things like this you have to go to a specialty store and I plan to tomorrow when they open. It is really only disappointing because I used to go to Michael's as a kid with my stepmother and we were always able to find everything we needed. Even bases for making our own chocolates. Michael's is still an amazing store but it isn't quite what...

Will not honor price matching. They have a very large red sign where it States,We will match any price and beat it by 10 percent. I was wishing to buy some prismacolor Colored pencils the one hundred fifty pack. At Michaels they sell it for about 189.00 On the Walmart webpage it is sold average (not sale) price for 91.99 on Amazon it goes for about 97.00 This is the average price range on this Product across most websites. The one I ask for the price match on was Walmart. They flat refused to price match and said there computers wouldn't let them with that large of a price difference. They also would not price match amazon or any other site for that matter all this under the giant red sign that said we price match and will beat any price by ten percent 😒 If you want an honest company with good prices Michaels is...
