Re: I love Michaels, I hate Michaels

I've always been a shopper at Michaels, mainly because it's the closest place around with such a huge selection of crafts.

I don't rely on the staff for anything though...even when they're out of stock, I've placed orders through them, and they call me when they're ready. I go there and nothing - no one can find anything!

The month before my wedding, I was literally there 4-5 times per week! I got to know the staff very well! LOL I did notice that the older women working there were more helpful then the kids.

One of my BM's bought all of her favors and the stuff to make her centerpieces for her wedding at Michaels. They re having a major sale. She bought boxes (forgot how many are in each box) of votive candles in glass holders for her favors $3.99 a box, and pillar candes for er centerpieces $.99 each. The trunk of her car as packed!

An older woman was there today and she was the only one that would help us...their staff has no clue what customer service is.

Great deal on the baskets - but how did you know how many to get? We don't know how many people are using the hotel.

Are these baskets in Florida??? How are you getting them up here?
