This past week, Jeremy and I visited because he wanted to get a knife bag. He received some new knives for Christmas - this year and years passed - and he wants to bring them with him when we go to our friends' house to make dinners. We do this quite frequently. We celebrate all the birthdays, and all the holidays - even stuff like Cinco de Mayo, and Chinese New Year. We'll take any excuse to gather together, smoke some pot, eat some good food, and enjoy our fellowship with these wonderful people. People we just met, oddly enough, less than two years ago and who I cannot imagine my life without. Weird how the Universe works. This was our second time visiting this store, and it's all set up to sell you everything you might need for Superb Owl. I don't care about sportsball, but we still managed to spend close to $100 on knives and peppers. I can't explain it. But it needed to be done and I'm happy that I could accomplish the task. I swear next Christmas I am buying all my friends brisket knives. This store is SO fun. You should visit it just to have an adventure. But I bet you buy something because the prices are super reasonable.

I've been in the restaurant business before and this was by far the largest I've seen. And of course it was brimming with equipment on multiple floors - so selection is fantastic. Ours was a relatively small order, but I the service I received from Arya was over the top. Exceedingly patient, friendly and attentive as I kept changing my mind. Not only did he personally deliver the sink to the business, I accidentally left my phone at the store and he immediately drove it across town to our company! And we're not even a restaurant and therefore not likely a returning customer. Amazing! The only possible negative was that the table arrived with plastic still on it which will require some effort to get it all off. However judging from the how to questions on the net, this seems like a common problem, and therefore likely a common practice - so I won't dock a star for it. Did I mention they gave me a better deal than I could find on the net?

They carry a multitude of event decor for my table settings which keeps my budget-tight brides and those hosting parties within their limits. For the crafter in me, the pricing of stemware, place settings, or other table decor allows me to monogram family logos, initials or add a personal touch to my events and raises the level of elegance at or below budget. Helpful staff is always on the ready and I have never had more than a 5 minute wait to checkout and be on my way. The store has ample parking, is well stocked, bright, and always clean...and did I mention they're in my neighborhood?!?!?! A++ rating from me.

I had a very disappointing experience at Home Surplus today. My husband and I arrived around 3:10…read morePM, ready to place an order, but the customer service was completely unacceptable. There were several associates sitting at the desk engaged in personal conversations, some of which even included profanity--something that is highly unprofessional on a sales floor. We spent about 25 minutes walking around the store, clearly visible and ready to make a purchase, yet not a single employee greeted us or offered assistance. Even standing near them did not prompt any acknowledgment. It felt as though helping customers was the last thing on their minds. What made the situation worse was overhearing an inappropriate conversation between an associate and a male customer, which was not suitable for a professional retail environment. At that point, I became frustrated and decided to leave around 3:35 PM without making a purchase. No matter if a customer is spending a dollar or thousands, everyone deserves to feel valued and respected. Unfortunately, that was not the case here. I will be taking my business elsewhere and will not recommend this store based on this experience.
