The shop is small and carries a variety of stationery items. I'm a huge stationery fan and probably…read moreown enough supplies to open my own shop, so I originally stopped in just to browse. I was excited to see they carried Everyday Explorers stickers and stamps. They also carry greeting cards, stickers, Travelers Notebook products, stamps, a few fountain pens, and inks, washi tape, Field Notes notebooks, and many other items. If you're a stationery fan and local to the area, I'd recommend giving this shop a visit.

Along Georgetown's commercial Wisconsin Avenue NW is the city's go-to local paper goods shop. After…read moreworking in media, the owner achieved his lifelong dream of opening a stationary store. Here's why you should visit: 1) Goods: Unlike other stores that have a paper section but expand into other home products, Duly Noted doesn't stray far from their mission. They sell journals, planners, greetings cards, stickers and more. They have a few goods outside of paper products like mugs and a few local food items, but the majority of the store focuses on paper products. A few standouts: Letterpress cards. The owner sources it from local and regional companies. Appointed journals. This D.C.-based, woman-owned company uses Duly Noted as a drop location for their custom journals and planners. 2) Price: Compared to other shops, the prices aren't bad. A quality, local greeting card is around $5. 3) Location: It's next to a large Compass Coffee and many other shops are nearby along Wisconsin Avenue and M Street NW. 4) Space: It's in an inviting space and the products are organized well. It's a full shop but doesn't feel cluttered or overwhelming. 5) Passion: The owner is passionate about paper goods, attentive and answers any questions you may have. 6) Safety: Masks are required and a small table greets you when you walk in with hand sanitizer and extra masks.

So I sat out by the front door and watched the parade. Women by the dozens, dragging husbands,…read morekids, and the occasional lost-looking boyfriend, all sprinting toward the big box store like it was the last chopper out of Saigon. Inside was Christmas in all its plastic glory -- pillows shaped like gingerbread men, lights bright enough to land airplanes, fake wreaths, garland that could survive a hurricane, and candy canes made of Styrofoam thick enough to stop a bullet. They had art supplies, hobby stuff, and furniture no one needed but everyone suddenly had to have. And when they came back out, bags in hand, faces lit up like the manger scene at the courthouse, you could tell -- for a moment at least -- they'd found joy, or a close enough imitation to get them through December.

Locking up zip ties????? Seriously????? That's commonly used with hardware. That's not bad enough…read morebut I rang the 'i need help' button twice, waited 10 minutes for absolutely not a soul to come 'help' me. If you're going to lock something up, at least have the decency to have an employee in that location readily available to 'help'! I can't stress enough how poorly managed and staffed Walmart is - every.single.location. Their 'rollback' pricing is a joke and so false - I've purchased enough items over the years to know exactly how much something is and when they claim 'rollback' they're just plain out lying. Unfortunately in order to stretch my food budget, I'm stuck with them. No other place is affordable for this family.

There needs to be better security in the parking lot. Twice now I have gone here and both times I…read moream being hassled by a black man wearing a hoodie asking for money or a ride. The first time he told me he was trying to get home to Baltimore and was short $35.00 . He then told me a minute later that if I gave him a ride somewhere he would pay me $40.00. He also asked if I could go in the store and get money from the ATM. I was already in my car and drove off. Yesterday night February 4, between 9:00 - 10:00 pm, I had pulled into a spot by the entrance by the Dunkin Donuts. I was sitting there not even a minute and he shows up again and taps on my window. I waved him off and he walked away towards the store entrance. By the time I got there and went inside he was talking to someone else. So if Walmart looks at the video they will see him standing right inside wearing a dark hoodie talking to another but taller man. Going to be spending more time shopping at another location for now on

After leaving a negative review, the owner reached out to me and was extremely apologetic and went the extra mile to address my concerns. Not only did she issue a refund, she also made it store policy to post their return policy at the register so that there are no future misunderstandings. I was very impressed with the owner and her responsiveness.
