Cougar Stone Yard #1

In contrast to other Yelp reviewers, I have been having great experiences with Cougar Stone. I first emailed Matt, the owner, sending him pictures of stones i was looking to find for my patio. He very kindly wrote back telling me he had what I was looking for. He even tried to call me to let me know this but I mistakenly put the wrong phone number in my email to him.We later spoke on the phone and the conversation yielded more helpful information. I decided to drive out to look at his inventory of stone myself. Frankly, I was a bit apprehensive after reading the negative reviews of how some customers have been treated. That turned out not my experience. Matt could not have been more helpful during my visit, directing me to various pallets of stone that he had in his extensive inventory. He even provided pictures of projects his customers had completed that were similar to what I wanted to do. I also appreciated his patience with my numerous questions. Cougar Stone has an amazing variety of stone types in their well-laid out yard and they even deliver to far away places like Palos Verdes, where I live. I give my experience with Matt and his company 5 well-deserved stars.

I came to Cougar stone and Keith has aways been friendly and helpful. We decorated our whole backyard with their flagstone and used their stacked stone for columns on our wall. I would say we have to come back 15 times to purchase more as we grew our protect. The staff in the yard are also helpful and friendly. Thanks for helping with our project and for the military discount.

Ask the Community - Cougar Stone

Is there a minimum number of pieces of stone you must purchase? Flagstone?

Thanks for reaching out. There is a couple options to purchase flagstone, we have a by the piece section where you can purchase by the piece, a stepping stone special which covers about 20 sq ft and by the pallet.

I reached out on Yelp asking multiple jewelers about medium thick chains for memorial necklaces…read moresince we want something durable. Guy from Jeweler's Touch stood out in his quick responses and helpfulness. When we arrived that evening to speak to someone, Brandon was amazing. He was friendly, super patient, and explained everything. He understood how difficult it was to look for rose gold chains, especially when thicker too. I was super indecisive and he gave me all the time in the world to look through their gold book which had all kinds of designs and thickness scaled to life size so I could place my pendant on it to imagine how it would look. He also brought out samples of chain types as I picked out ones to see if I'd like the look in person. He ended up finding an estate gold chain that looked absolutely perfect for my husband's pendant in shine and style. We tried it for a few days (they give you 30 days hassle-free) and my husband knew it wasn't the right length of style for his personal preference and our tuggy toddlers within one day. It was gorgeous and I wished it worked out, but maybe not for us. We came back a few days later after Christmas Eve and Brandon helped me out again with the return and gave me suggestions for the length of my husband's necklace based on preference. I saw people coming in and out during the two times I went and I see why. These people are amazing, patient, knowledgeable, super friendly and not pushy at all. They want to help make happy customers who are looking for that perfect jewelry. Although we are still on the search for the "perfect" chain for each of us (we are not major jewelry people but need this to be just right for us in every way), I appreciate the help that Jeweler's Touch gave and would recommend them for anyone looking for a custom piece or specific jewelry services.

Additionally, I wanted to also look into getting a better whisk, but I think I will make the wood what I have. And I knew I was gonna need a digital scale to help me through my sourdough journey now that I was gifted two sourdough starters--one from Italy and one from France (one of my clients was very giving & thoughtful). The price is range from $40-$85., whoa! Amazon has them for about $30. I will have to think about this.. Met Gonzo, yes, that's how he spelled it, a delightful & enlightened staff member who was very helpful with recommending which would be best. We could've had a whole conversation for a half a day! LoL. In the end, I decided to think about it before purchasing one (turns out later, best decision I made all day) My glass measuring cup is in storage & I find it cumbersome so I bought a lighter version (2 cup). Happy with my purchase. Hubby bought his item separately & let me roam the aisles. Highly recommend this store. Gonzo was instrumental in making me feel welcomed & appreciated to be shopping here, hence the 5 star. As I mentioned many times in the past, I greatly value customer service. It's what keeps me as a return customer

This is surprising since I'd never used a sewing machine before. At a class this week, I met another lady who got a REALLY great deal on a refurbished high end sewing/embroidery machine and after sleeping on it, decided to go back the next day to see if they could find another deal like that for me. Well, George happened to be there and he and Karen found me a near-new machine with less than 10k stitches on it!!! Needless to say, I came home with a MAJOR upgrade at a GREAT price. These folks really know their machines and supplies, and make themselves available to help their clients and answer every question one could have...and as a super-newbie, I have an overwhelming amount. :) I look forward to spending many more happy hours there learning to use my new power tool with thread and mastering my new hobby.

I understand that things have gotten very expensive, although Mr. Camarena should cool his jets a bit when dealing with customers. We purchased the machine from them a few years back and my wife is a light user. I made the critical mistake of questioning their repair price and lack of any explanation as to what is included. Mr Adolf became very arrogant and testy with me. You would think that they could have a better attitude with a repeat customer and be a little more customer friendly. Find a better repair option than these clowns!

I would still say that Trader Joe's is my TOP CHOICE when it comes to buying FLOWERS - they always have a great selection and variety of flowers at a good price! It allows me to build my own bouquet which is something I enjoy. Most groceries here are on the pricey side and more unique grocery items . Only downside to Trader Joe's is that it's more catered towards prepping meals for small families or just a single person otherwise, everything adds up quickly and a small grocery run comes out to $70. So I usually just come here for snacks, desserts, small treats, and flowers. I appreciate that they usually offer STICKERS & LOLLIPOPS for free for the kids at checkout!

Unlike some Trader Joe's where you feel like you're playing musical chairs with your car, this one is a breeze. I went on a weekday morning, and maybe that's why it wasn't a total zoo! fewer crowds, more space. The vibe when you walk in is just calm, unlike those other locations where you feel like you're dodging traffic inside. And let me tell you, the flowers! oh, the flowers! They have this amazing selection, always from women-owned sources, and they're just so fresh. I can't resist them. they're worth every penny. Of course, I stocked up on fresh produce too. A classic Trader Joe's goodness. Apples, berries, all top-notch. Now, a little comedy for you; when I got to the cashier, it was like a live rehearsal for a Trader Joe's sitcom. The cashier was brand new under training and bless their heart, they went step-by-step, checking off each little friendly prompt. " how's my day, am I finding everything okay" and I almost burst out laughing because it was so scripted, but also kind of sweet. The staff here are just lovely, friendly, ready to answer your random grocery questions like, "Do you have any ice cream that's also a magical unicorn in disguise?" (Okay, maybe not, but they'd try!) The only tiny suggestion I have for improvement is a shade for the outdoor flowers. On hot days, they get sunburnt and sad. But hey, it's a classic Trader Joe's, clean, fresh, and just a joy to shop at. I'm a happy customer for sure!

Let's be real with ourselves--most of us are not part of the 1%. That interlude matters because I was at the register with my mom when her card declined. She was trying to make a payment and then, immediately after, use her card to buy our merch. Let me just say--it was a timely transaction and very public. However, our cashier was the opposite of judgmental. She was kind. Honestly, truly kind. [Amy, are you a Christian?] My mom was shaking, embarrassed, and trying to just get out of there. I stayed calm, coaching her through it and explaining that it was fine. Amy kept apologizing, saying sorry, and going above and beyond to smooth out the chaos. This is that part of humanity you hardly get to see. Forget customer service awards--Amy, you deserve a big blessing. Nordstrom Rack should be so appreciative to have you. I hope they see your value and give you more. Thank you for being a kind human!
