Hobby Lobby

Okay, like who doesn’t love Hobby Lobby? Always great deals, good customer service, and amazing items. My only complaint is that once I get in there, I can’t make myself leave.

This is a great store for all kinds of crafty stuff. If you want to create something, you can get the goods to do it here. It is much bigger than the other similar stores you may have shopped at, almost warehouse like. You can spend quite a bit of time here browsing.

One of my favorite things to do in the summer is to drive up here and spend an afternoon in the papercrafting section (particularly during a 50% off sale!). The store is conveniently located and easy to find from I-​40. The parking lot is never crowded, at least not when I go on weekday afternoons. The employees have been unfailingly pleasant to me.
If you’re buying a lot of little things like stamps and stickers and whatnot, do check your receipt carefully. Since the cashiers have to type everything you buy into the computer instead of scanning barcodes, it’s easy for them to forget a discount or to type the wrong price in accidentally when they have a lot to ring up all at once. I’ve experienced this situation multiple times in the past few months. Fortunately, I’ve always discovered the error (s) before leaving the parking lot, so I’ve been able to go back into the store within minutes of exiting and explain what’s happened. It can take a bit of time to get everything figured out, but Customer Service has always been reasonable in acknowledging and correcting mistakes once I’ve demonstrated the issue.
Plus, for Triangle scrapbookers like me, Hobby Lobby has possibly the best selection of stamps, stickers, and specialty papers available north of Raleigh. If you watch the sales carefully, their prices are hands-​down better than Michael’s, too – I rarely pay full price for anything.

I love shopping at Hobby Lobby. The store is clean, well stocked and the quality of the products have always been top notch. As for their stance on the health care policy I agree with them 100%. The great thing about this country is that we as individuals are allowed to make choices without having the government force their ideology down our throats. I think it’s wonderful seeing a privately owned company standing by their values rather than allowing big government to control them. If you don’t like their health care benefits, then find another place to work.

Creepy store with creepy anti-​womens’ health policies inflicted on its employees. Not a happy place, I shop elsewhere.

My first experience here, admittedly wasn’t a good one.
I came in specifically looking to buy watercolors, and when I got to the «painting» section I came to the realization that this isn’t really meant to be an art supply store. Im not sure why it had never occurred too me before, but for some reason I went in expecting an artists paradise, hence my bad experience.
I couldn’t exactly hold my misconceptions against Hobby Lobby, so when it finally came down to the review I had to table it for awhile… Coming back to it now, this store is really GREAT!
When you walk in, you’re greeted by a large variety of home décor items, both seasonal and… Well, just everyday home accents. I love to browse here, especially during Halloween and Christmas! They get some really unique seasonal items!
