Spencer's is always a fun place to shop with its unique and quirky selection of shirts, mugs,…read morejewelry, decor, and adult novelties. I recently stopped by to pick up a gift and found an Art the Clown Molded Coffee Mug (20 oz.) from Terrifier for my niece, who's in her early twenties. She's a fan, so it was a great find! I also tried to grab an ICP shirt for her, but all the sizes I saw were really large. Not sure if that's typical or if they were just running low because it was late December when I visited.
The checkout experience was...awkward. The cashier mentioned they didn't have boxes (which I wasn't expecting), but then she just dropped the mug into a plastic bag with no wrapping or protection at all, and said, "be careful." Come on, even Walmart does better than that. I asked if I could have another small bag to cushion the mug, and she hesitated, stared at me, and said, "It won't help." I kind of laughed, and told her I'd still like to try. She eventually gave me one, but it was a weird interaction. The store wasn't busy, and there was no line behind me, so I thought it was a pretty reasonable request.
I get that Spencer's is a bit unconventional, and maybe they have rules about bag use, but they really need to offer some tissue paper or something for fragile items. Despite the odd experience, the store's fun vibe and unique products make me want to return--because, well, it's Spencer's, and that's just part of the charm!
