H&M

After much speculation and announcement… H&M is HERE Augusta! I have frequented this store in Atlanta and made my first stop into the one at Augusta Mall the week before Labor Day. Store layout: Primarily, the ladies r upstairs and men downstairs. There is an elevator in the back. I do like the escalator at the store in Atlanta but… you can’t have everything! LOL
However, I was able to find some great shirts for my nephew (the main purpose for the mall shop that day). I also wanted to get him the camo joggers but they were sold out. The shirts are really fun and different than you find at some of the other shops. I picked up a henley, LosYorkNewAngeles, a couple other Ts and even a classic RUN-​DMC T. Finally, I passed thru upstairs and the ladies were lookin right! Nice lil tops and stylish accessories. Check them out!

One of my favorite places to shop in any city. I just love the options they have. They have good stuff for all members of the family. I see this being a great place to shop for gifts. Great place for classic inexpensive pieces. This location is two floors. Lots of jewelry and accessories for the ladies. I especially like the collection of scarves they have. A new store, so the staff is on top of it for now. The fitting rooms are always crowded. No surprise or complaint there. I must try on everything I intend to buy! The store has an elevator, so the Moms can ride up with strollers to check out the Women and Mens section. Great addition to the Augusta Mall. Finally on par several other cities.

Of course I would be at the Grand Opening of one of my favorite stores when it hit Augusta. I tried to make it when the opened at noon but got tied up, but I did make it eventually in the evening when I thought the crowd would have died down. I was wrong, it was still very busy and customers were still crowding in. There was a dj spinning good tunes in the front when you walked in. This store has 2 levels with the women’s and girl’s merchandise on the upper level and the men’s and boy’s merchandise on the lower level. There is also a small plus size section here too. I asked one employee where the section was and he showed me to it and informed me that they will eventually get more plus size clothing in later shipments. This is the only reason that I didn’t give this store 5 stars. I browsed the jewelry section and found several pieces I liked and actually purchased. The price was very inexpensive for what you were actually getting. The checkout process was a little hectic, but there were 5 lines open and all the lines were full. I did find a line that was shorter and was checkout quickly. The staff was very pleasant and were easy to find with them wearing the same black H&M employee t-​shirts. I did receive a postcard in the mail from them because I am an online customer of theirs. It was informing me that they would be opening in Augusta and it came with a small discount but I didn’t actually get the postcard till after I got home because I didn’t check the mail till after my trek to the mall. But it’s still cool though, I’m not mad at all. I’m so glad that we finally got one here because I really do like their merchandise and this is one more reason I will be coming to the mall!!!
