I came into Victoria's Secret at The Village (Meridian, ID) on Sunday 03/16 looking to get fitted…read morefor a new bra and get some help figuring out what styles would work best for me. I was immediately greeted by Sierra, who was so kind and helpful. She measured me and listened to what my concerns were and what I wanted in a bra. She got me a few recommendations and checked on me after each try-on to discuss what was and wasn't working, even getting me a new size after we decided the initial try-on was too big and brought several other styles for me to try. I came into VS after a terrible customer service experience at a different store, so Sierra's help had a huge positive effect on my experience and my day. Two other employees checked on me during my time in the store and they were so kind, I just didn't catch their names! I had a wonderful experience and am so happy I went home with a new comfortable bra that fits just right after 7 years of wearing only sports bras. Thank you!

I have been a faithful customer of VS, but I r ed recently bought two demi t-shirt bras and cut off…read morethe tag to wash them and wear them, since I have never had a problem with their bras before. Well, in the washer the wires that fasten the bra together totally got messed up after one wash. I came back to request an exchange and they said since I cut off the tag they couldn't help me. They also said they couldn't look up my transaction in the system, even though I have worked in retail for 6 years and I know you can always look up a transaction. Its Christmas time, and I thought asking kindly for an exchange since I am a loyal shopper and I simply cant use these bras would maybe cause some sympathy and kindness from the store. Wrong. I am not shopping with VS again.

This is specifically for the Photography side- Huge shout…read moreout to Kenny and Chanielle who were our photographers today. My 3-year old son was in a particular mood and really didn't want to take any pictures. No matter how hard we tried, he wouldn't stop crying. Kenny suggested that we take a break and come back later. We did...and stopped by the toy aisle on the way. Even though Buzz Lightyear ending up making an appearance in our pictures, my son came back happy and laughing at Chanielle's silly antics. We really appreciate their patience and understanding in a frustrating situation, it really makes all of the difference in an experience like this! thank you!

Not sure on other departments but the jewelry dept was not a good experience due to a young girl…read morethat from the beginning was not helpful at all. I didn't get her name but she was young and didnt seen to know what she was doing. I have to say the Jc Penny's jewelry dept in Boise was awesome.

Located next to Nike and Toys R Us (the Toys R Us is closing soon)…read more Ample parking in the paved lot out front. No free WiFi. No restrooms. Closest one is Toys R Us. Friendly, but not overly annoying friendly service which I personally appreciate. Lots of fitting rooms and when I went you could just go and try on your clothes without doing an item count and having to talk to anyone (again I personally appreciate, but some may not). I'm an independent shopper and don't like to be bothered. Selection/variety is good, not great for men. Could be better for women and children, I can't speak to that. They did offer to order online anything they have there not in your size with free shipping so that is good to know. Lots of stuff on sale as you would expect. P.S.I deducted one star because there is no free WiFi and also no public restrooms. These should be standard in 2018 at all business. No excuses there.

They have good quality clothes that is somewhat decently priced. You can sometimes find good steals on their clearance racks. Every so often they have a spend $50 today and get $25 off your $50 purchase at a future date. If you go plan to go back, it makes your purchase that much better! The Village at Meridian has been such a great addition - it's brought in so many great stores, including this one. The location is a big plus for me as it's not in the mall but a shopping center around the corner!

I always shop here for family photos, Christmas, just because or if I'm looking for baby gifts. Their baby clothes is always a win as a baby shower gift no matter if it's for a boy or girl. The staff here if always kind! They have some of the best retailers customer service around. They are in such a great shopping area. It's hard not to want to stop in when I'm shopping at the Village. I'm sure I'll be back sometime soon. Especially if they have new bags in.

Normally the last place you could get me to go is the Village in Meridian on a weekend, let alone…read morethe holiday season but my mom wanted to go here looking for a Christmas gift so I sucked it up, and boy did I feel like a sucker. Upon entering the store I was hit with a wave of pungent perfume. Once I regained my composure, I realized I was in a sea of white women; many of whom were radiating real "Karen" vibes as they say. We looked around for a while; none of the employees greeted us once, apparently, they'll only say hello if you're at the cash register. We even looked at items directly left to the registers and I looked over at them and they looked at me as if I was a vagrant. That's kinda funny considering I was wearing a very expensive jacket & had several hundred dollars in my wallet. In the end, they didn't have what my mom was looking for, so we left. I'm glad we did because throughout our shopping experience, I heard numerous customers make snide remarks about people in California and how they "need to go back where they came from" Bigotry has no place in Idaho!

We go to American Eagle every year to see what kind of dress we can grab my daughter for her birthday. We snag a few during the summer but we needed something fresh for her upcoming birthday dinner. I am always greeted by the nicest sales associates on the floor! One of them greeted us, asked what we were looking for and directed using to where some of the dresses were located. We checked out the new fall dresses and weren't really into anything so we headed to the sales racks. We found a couple potential pieces and wanted to try them on. We got a room by one of the sales associates. I appreciate that they grab the customer's name to make it more personal. He got my daughter's name all written down and told us to holler at him if we needed anything. My daughter tried on her dresses and we found a nice one to wear to one of her birthday dinners. We ended our shopping visit with a sweet gal checking us out. We were also thanked by a couple girls in the front on our way out. I have always enjoyed shopping here. The clothes are cute and the staff is hella nice. I am sure I'll be back soon!

The AE Mall location is a 1000x better than the store out at the Village in Meridian…read more With the fate of malls up in the air, because of online crap...I'm scared that we will lose the mall store. Oh, I kinda LOVE American Eagle. Great clothes for guys, amazing workout clothes...which is good for someone who lives in a gym....YUP! I totally just said that about myself, hahahahaha! Seriously tho, we know they have great stuff in AE. Reason why I say it's better than the village store is because... the Village store is tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiny! And OH DEAR GOD! it's always so damn busy in there! So you're like a bunch of cattle moving through a tiny store... It's kinda like how you're moved through one of them GOD AWFUL IKEA stores, hahahaha! IKEA ugh! I know their stores are 5 warehouses in one vs a small AE store, but I'm using thos comparison to describe how CRAMPED the village store is! Also, the mall store has more product, more clearance items....hahaha, who doesn't love them some discounted AE stuff? Hahahaha! I'm a cheap bitch LMAO! (I really wish Yelp would let us use emojis lol). The staff at the mall is super sweet and incredibly attentive. I had an issue recently...bought a pair of shorts that I ordered while at THE VILLAGE STORE....lol. Well, she ordered them and whatnot. I ordered the dark gray, medium. She ordered me the XL, with the light gray....this is where an emoji would help lol. So I was there for a dinner...went and returned them and reordered the other ones. She put the order in, took my $$$ and two weeks later....STILL. NO. SHORTS. She never ordered them, hahaha! Whatever, right? Finally REORDERED them...AGAIN...from a SUPER bubbly manager at the mall..wish I could remember her name. She was fantastic. She ordered them and then gave me 15% off for the inconvenience. A discount is a discount, no matter the amount, right? Was just really nice of her to do that for me. Moral of this long story....GO TO THE MALL LOCATION! it's just better in every aspect. Also, American Eagle....DO NOT EVER CLOSE THE MALL STORE!!!!!! ya know, unless the mall shuts totally down...which Boise mall does pretty good. Always crowded. So maybe there's hope for that place! Thanks again for reading, Yelper peeps! Cheers!

My husband and I went into Coach to grab a MATCHING passport holder to commemorate our upcoming…read moreinternational trip together. We were greeted by someone who just started working there and we let her know that we are here for some passport covers. She immediately told us that they don't have such things. I understand she's new but they need to train their staff better to let people know they're new and will check before completely telling us a flat out no. However, someone corrected her and showed us the actual passport holders. Everything went down hill from here. Katie the store manager made our whole shopping experience terrible. We bought two brown passport cases and she ended up hot stamping both of them the same initial by accident. She told us we'd had to wait a few days for a new one. Already disappointed, she then calls us to come pick up the new one couple days later and to our surprise she ordered a complete different passport holder. At this point we were frustrated with the whole experience and she told us she'd order another one that is going to be identical to the one we previously purchased before she made a mistake on the hot stamping. So the new one arrived and again it wasn't the same leather as the one we purchased. One says natural full grain leather and the other one says genuine full grain leather. She then tells me complete misinformation that the genuine grain leather will end up wearing like the natural full grain leather which is complete misinformation. After going through the hot stamping process three times, we just ended up returning them. Not only we were completely dissatisfied with the way she handled the whole situation but completely felt insulted when she started to tell me the sanded leather will end up like the natural full grain leather.
