True story. Walked into the upstairs sale area a week ago on a Friday around 1pm with my wife and…read moreanother couple. Spent maybe 10-15 minutes in the store. Everything was 25%-50% off and it was also a "tax free" weekend, I guess because of return to school. I brought 2 hats to the register where the store employee (lady) was at, intending to buy one or the other. After discussing prices on both hats, I selected the $60 hat, which was $30 after the 50% off. The lady then told me she didn't know how to ring it up. I was puzzled, but whatever. I said, "it's $30 after the discount". She says she needs to calculate the discount on the register and she doesn't know how to. She tries calling the store owner for instructions, but he doesn't answer the call. I very nicely and patiently say "OK. Here's my name and number. When you figure how to ring this up, call me, I won't be far away", and then I leave. 30 minutes later my phone rings and it's the owner. I'm on vacation, I'm all happy, I say "Hey, what's up?" This guy says "WHAT'S UP??? LET ME TELL YOU WHAT'S UP. I OWN THE HAT STORE. MY 80yr OLD EMPLOYEE JUST WENT HOME CRYING. WHAT THE HELL DID YOU SAY TO HER???" Needless to say this moron had his facts all wrong. He rants on me for a few minutes, not letting me get a word in. Finally he shuts up for a second, I ask if he has video cameras. He says yes. I ask if he watched them yet, he says no. I tell him to go watch the video, then call me back and apologize. I was as nice as could be to his employee, who apparently didn't know how to ring up a hat. Perhaps he never trained her? I tell this guy why would I leave my name and number if I just abused your elderly employee? This moron store owner has yet to call me back to apologize.

I been shopping locally for a hat to protect myself from the relentless Florida sun while metal detecting and today I settled for one that somewhat checked all the boxes - for $20 it will do until I find exactly what I'm looking for which will probably be online for more than twice the price. The staff here was friendly, accommodating and very professional - it's nice to engage with employees that take an interest in their business. I'll definitely return when in the area...

Finally a store for MEN! Oak & Adze is a diversified lodge of masculine products for refined…read moregentlemen, rugged lumberjacks, rough and tumble woodsmen, or soulful artisans. Perusing this new shop on St. George Street was a delight for me but I wished I had my husband in tow so he could pick out what he likes. They have the most fascinating products including hand carved sling shots from California Beech, hunting knives, pipes, and beard and grooming products. They are also plenty of axes because Oak & Adze philosophy is, "Every man needs to own at least one ax." The all-natural beard and grooming products are also locally made here in St. Augustine! One thing I had my eye on was their colorful "Seed Bombs" to use with their Sling Shots. The Seed bombs are in the Slingshot ammo area and have a seed mix containing 10 different wildflowers inside them. Their website states, "To activate the Seed Bombs soak them in water until they become soft and squishy. Then take your slingshot and shoot them in any direction you would like. Once the seed is shot watch the seed bomb blow up on impact causing a cloud of color. Have fun shooting and gardening!" It's wonderful to have a store that's a celebration of masculinity and a haven for "Gentlemanly Men" but women can still have a great time there too!

When I asked if it was appointment only that we were just looking around. She said that I could look but I wouldn't find anything She was very condescending and rude. Yet, when we offered to leave she began to tell us how she needed to make money to pay the bills yet continued to complain that we couldn't find anything because she was the only one who knew where things were. For some reason she felt the need to tell us about her various job experiences. It was the strangest experience and for someone who's store was empty of customers, she sure did a good job of running us out. Needless to say we left without purchasing anything. We did go to another fabulous Consignment Store named Christie Blue.
