I have political differences with Hobby Lobby, so despite its convenient location to my house, I would normally never shop here. However, I was stressed out and did not want to drive to Appleton just to buy a coloring book and some pencils(see: stressed out), so I ventured in. The store is HUGE, and has an ugly warehouse feel. They have every kind of craft item you can imagine(and some you can’t), as well as a hefty dose of kitschy home décor stuff. The aisles didn’t have signs that I could find, so I had to peer down each one to figure out if I was in the right neighborhood. I did find what I was looking for, though I was alarmed to see children playing with merchandise in the next aisle and eventually heard their parents prompting them to «clean up.» I didn’t realize this was a toy store… The kicker was that, as I approached the register, a cashier was asking her manager if she could leave, despite the fact that she was open and I was standing there with two items. She chuckled to me not to take it personally, haha, etc., but it kind of turned me off. The card reader also didn’t work right, and I eventually had to slide my card the opposite way the arrows indicated. So I wouldn’t usually come here, and my experience did nothing to change that. So long, Hobby Lobby.

Hobby Lobby has quite a few craft and unique items to check out. The reason for the missing star(4 star experience) is because all sales are rang up based on the cashier remembering every single sale item… really? In this era of technology we can’t get a system at Hobby Lobby that has all sale prices enforced by someone ringing it up and the computer automatically applying it? I found myself, more than usual, making sure that I got the correct price. Even still some of the sales are confusing and I found some picture frames were on sale and other frames were not, for what reason I couldn’t really figure out. I like the fact that you can find some craft items that you can’t find other places but I won’t make a trip here often as I just don’t want to get confused too often when I want to shop. For the record though, I did pay the correct/sale price for everything so I guess I can’t walk away feeling cheated, just confused
