Looking for some good stocking stuffers? Michael’s is a great place to go. They have bins of cute items that are inexpensive. They have a ton of crafts I can do with my child on cold or rainy days. Teachers receive a very good discount. I recall15%. I purchased many items for my wedding here — lot of DIY stuff. They have craft classes and birthday parties for kids. Even if you don’t knit or aren’t particularly crafty, I still think Michael’s is a good place to check out for some unique items to give as gifts.

Michaels is a great option for non-specialized hobby supplies. They also carry a whole line of Martha Stewart scrapbooking supplies which is awesome. This location in particular is always well-stocked and is constantly running sales on various items. They have a relatively small clearance section(it’s located at the back, near the knitting supplies). The custom framing is affordable and cheaper than Hobby Lobby… but you have less frames to pick from than Hobby Lobby offers. Also, if you visit, be sure to download the Michaels app(it’s definitely available for iPhone… not sure about Droids) because there are coupons available on there that can be scanned at the register. During holiday seasons they usually toss in a few gems like 50% off one item(instead of the normal 40%) or 20% off your entire purchase(a rare coupon to get at Michaels!).

It’s a chain craft store, so there’s really nothing special about what it has or its pricing. I usually go to Michael’s for baking items(pastry bag tips, cute cupcake liners, etc.), knitting stuff(yarn, needles, accessories, etc.), and the occasional impulse buy($ 1 notepads, higher-end felt-tip pens, etc.). What I appreciate about this Michael’s store is that they recently changed the layout of their registers. Originally it was pretty chaotic, but now they have a proper queue as well as an electronic announcement that sounds when a specific register is open. They still kind of shove all the clearance items in your face as you walk to the registers, but I like that it’s much more organized. I would like for them to also make it not necessary to walk through the aforementioned queue if you just want to exit the place(without buying anything). Slightly annoying.
