Just came here tonight with a couple of friends, and we stayed for more than 2 hours because there…read morewas SO much to look at! We really loved this place and had a great experience! Upon walking in, you see tons off different boutiques sectioned off into different areas. There are handcrafted crafts and gifts from all different vendors, and no matter who you are, you're bound to find something you like, including candles, clothes, sports, food, jewelry, home decor, etc. Prices vary by product and vendor, so of course some vendors will be more expensive than others. Some even sell name-brands like Marc Jacobs. For the most part, I think prices were pretty fair! Not only were the products great, but so were the workers. One of the men who was stocking found out that I love penguins, so he was showing me penguin-themed items. He was nice, and we all kept laughing. Also, when we were checking out, both cashiers were extremely personable. One checked us out, and the other wrapped some of the more fragile items, which I appreciated. The cashier who checked us out absolutely loved us and had a great conversation with us about how we all had so much in common with her. When it comes to location, the building is within a strip mall, and they have tons of parking and other popular shops around. Overall, my friends and I all said we would for sure return to the store! Apparently, vendors normally update their booths every few weeks unless they're out of state, so we will definitely come back soon to see the new stock. Since it is Christmas time, the store was FULL of Christmas and holiday decor. I loved the atmosphere because of this! There were a few bare booths where no vendors were anymore, so it seems as though a couple of vendors left. *If you're an entrepreneur, I'd definitely look into a booth here!*

Shelley asked for a picture of the room and our goals/needs for the room. Her eye for colors and combining fabrics was perfect and she kept with what we liked. Shelley led us to a couch that would work with the chair. It was one of the best couches I'd sat on throughout this tour of furniture! Shelley informed us of all of the personal options to make the couch even better for our home. Thanks to Shelley's personality and designer knowledge, we left Toms-Price excited about our purchases and new look for our living room.

Yes, I whined (to myself and to my husband) about the cost of custom cabinets and granite at C&G Direct, but I'm super happy with the quality of the product that showed up at my doorstep a few weeks back. The rep we worked with, Anna, was on point from start to finish. She was quick to answer questions, helped us design a counter and cabinet structure that would work best for our daughters' bathroom and followed up with our contractor when one cabinet door arrived less than stellar. Their showroom is quite lovely and you can get a nice picture of what your potential kitchen/bath will look like when all is said and done. Yes, we paid extra for our white cabs, but the quality is there, it looks awesome with the new counters, and said cabinets were crafted just a few states over. #worthit

I've been thinking of remodeling my kitchen for at least 10 years. The process started by sitting…read moredown at Lowe's with one of their kitchen designers and getting a free layout and cabinet estimate. Over the next 10 years I took that Lowe's layout to no less than a dozen cabinet companies to get their pricing. The pricing always came in around $10,000+ (except for one importer who sold cheap, rather than good cabinets in a limited number of styles and colors. None of which we liked.) Then a month ago, driving north on Gary avenue in Carol Stream I just happened to spot this place and thought I'd try again to price out the Lowe's design because we were now ready to do something. I went into the place and immediately started walking around. I didn't wait for a sales person because I wasn't sure if I'd like the place and didn't want some fast-talking salesman to start accosting me for my business. I'd looked for a few minutes before I was approached by Jim, a pleasant older gentleman. He was nice so I told him what I was looking for and we casually discussed a few options. I told him I had the Lowe's kitchen design and he said he'd be happy to price it out with the cabinets I liked (he didn't want to see their pricing). I emailed him the design minus the prices and he came back with some design drawings. We talked some more over email and I asked him to stop by my house to see my kitchen. He did and we had a great conversation and we got ideas for other ways to do the kitchen. After looking at the kitchen, Jim put together everything we liked, added in the monthly manufacturer promotions, and ended up THOUSANDS less than any other quality cabinet place. So today we visited the showroom to go over every part of the cabinet order before putting down a deposit. After all was said and done, even after we added many pullout drawers, did some upgrading and getting some trim pieces (not on the original Lowe's design), he beat my 10 year old barebones Lowe's kitchen design price by over $1,500! I can't recommend Jim and this place strongly enough. (I'll let you know if things don't go smoothly once we receive the cabinets.)

If you're looking for resale furniture in the Chicago area, it's almost essential you visit…read moreJubilee, both their Carol Stream and Lombard locations. They have the largest selection by far, and most of what they accept is in good condition. There's always something interesting in their collection, which at any time has handmade, vintage, collectible, and other unique items alongside more conventional ones. The more desirable vintage and antique items won't be cheap, but they'll be cheaper than at a curated vintage or antique furniture shop. Jubilee isn't a thrift store, and in some cases their prices can be a bit high. Everything is final sale, so there's an element of "buyer beware," like most resale shops. They put the brand name on the price tag if it's a selling point, but not so much for cheaper brands. Once I purchased an item here, and when I got home I found the label and saw it was made in China by a low-end furniture company. I never would have paid as much had I known, so I felt a bit duped. However I still wound up going back as I never found as much furniture I liked anywhere else. And for what it's worth, the item has held up. Most of their service is provided by volunteers, who are nice, but some are more knowledgeable than others. To sum up, it's not perfect, but in a retail landscape where most new furniture is either flimsy "manufactured wood" or ultra-expensive high end brands, Jubilee helps fill an important gap for affordable quality furniture.

TL, DR: Great fabric, good deals at times, but holy cranky salespeeps!…read more I wanted to place a Special Order for 9 yds of fabric since they didn't have enough in-store. I was told by the associate at the cutting area to go to Customer Service to have the order placed, so I did... and was verbally reprimanded by a cashier, who told me to go to the registers. When I got up there I was helped by the cashier next to her. When the fabric rang up, it didn't come up at the 50% off price (regularly $20/yd). I let the cashier know, and she worked on a price check/ fixing it, but that first cashier was pretty gruff and seemed to not believe me about the price. She also went on a tangent about the cutting lady sending me to Customer Service.. Today I picked up said fabric. I needed the 9 yards cut into 3 yards of 3. The employee retrieved two rolls of fabric, which concerned me since I didn't see how 9 yards of fabric would be divided amongst the 2 rolls. (Certainly there would be a remainder??) I asked her about it, but she looked at me like I had two heads. I told her to go ahead with the cut, since she must know better than me. She stopped again midway through and questioned me again. Since she apparently didn't understand my question at first, PLUS gave me the sh!t look, I repeated that she's the expert. I hoped for the best. Apparently when special orders are placed, they send a bunch more fabric along, so it all worked out fine. She cut 2 sections of 3 yards (= 6 yards) from one roll and one 3-yard piece from the second. Still, honest question, right? I'm no craft store/fabric-buying regular. I could have done without the smarmy attitudes and looks. Cost of my 9 yards of fabric WITH THE 20% discount (see pic) was $77. Not too shabby for what I hope will be a great look in my place. 4 stars for the fabric and price, 2 for customer service with an attitude.
