Zieben-Mare

Nice store, wish I could say nice owners too.

The selection of clothing and home décor is amazing. It’s Anthropologie-​esque with a small-​town feel. I really love the merch in this store.
So why only 2 stars? I bought a Groupon that was $ 50 for $ 110 worth of merch. One of the employees, who may have been the owner, assumed I was trying to get cash back on the Groupon, and that was simply offensive.
A different employee offered to hold the items I was going to purchase while I continued to look around the store. She started a pile for me at the register desk. When I was done shopping, I came up to the register with one more item and handed a different woman that item along with the Groupon. She looked at me and said, «You can’t get cash back.» I responded, «What do you mean?» She explained that the Groupon covered $ 110 and since I was only buying a $ 50 ring, I could not get the $ 60 difference back in cash. I explained that I intended to purchase the pile of items sitting in front of her and without an apology she rang me up and said thanks. I can’t help but feel that woman looked at me and assumed I was trying to rip her off.
Given that I went waaaaay out of my way to shop at this cool store that I would’ve told all my stylish friends about, I was offended by this woman’s disregard for me and will never be back to Zieben-​Mare. If you go, be sure to wear your most expensive designer clothes in order to avoid being judged.

There are some interesting little things for the house here. They also were selling small bags of mixed nuts for $ 18! I kid you not. That’s when I left. The employees were nice so I wish them the best of luck

Update in response to owner’s reply: «t’s a shame sorry to see that you left empty handed».
Well I left empty handed when I saw a bag of nuts for $ 18. :-)
