glitter cardstock

Being easily attracted to shiny things, I was particularly in love with the racks of glitter paper. I'm not a crafter but when forced into it for a work project I turned to Housemart after not finding what I needed at Target, etc. Staff at Housemart was excellent and helped me find everything I needed with a smile and feeling of aloha. BTW, if you are not a crafter, this place will blow your mind with all the strange and cool products and gadgets you didn't know existed. Also, RIBBON !

Big store with lots of crafting supplies!

This Ross is hands down one of the best I've EVER been to. The Ross Stores in CA are JUNK. The Ross…read morestores on Oahu are pretty good, but the Ross Store in Hilo is a GEM! I first started shopping here in 2005 when I was living in Keaau but I keep going back whenever I'm in town. Now granted if you show up when a cruise ship is in town then definitely things will get sparse but the brands and things they carry in here are the BEST. Of course like every store, especially BARGAIN stores, it's gonna have it's good days and bad days but luckily for me, the Ross angels always smile upon me and I find the coolest stuff. For those who don't know, here's some tips about this store: - You need to take some time in here to go through everything. That's when you find the killer stuff. I've gotten Via Spiga shoes for $8, Armani pants for $5, guess jeans for $1, Calvin Klein sweater/shrug for $6 and lots of other brand names you see in Nordstroms sold here. -You have to go with no particular items in mind. If you came here with a specific item in mind that you want, you'll probably be disappointed, but if you just come and let the spirit guide you, you're gonna find some great things. Just recently, I got my sister a $250 Speedo Parka (the kind swimmers wear at meets and/or you wear at a football game on the mainland) for $15. She's been wanting this too and how random is that I found it here?!? -I found that the non-island essentials are the cheapest; long sleeve Ralph Lauren polo shirts, leather jackets, sweaters, suits, etc. I've noticed that it's the super high end brand names in winter/cold weather styles is what's plentiful and cheapest here. Slippers, jean shorts, tanks and bathing suits are never gonna be on sale here and are usually the tourists/locals first choice items so you might find yourself better off at a Macy's 1 day sale for price and selection. At any rate, Ross ain't for everybody and it's definitely not a Macy's or Neiman Marcus, but it's clean and friendly enough. It's a bargain hunters playground!

I bought sneakers there and they were cracked in about 2 weeks. Danny, store manager in Hilo, HI,…read moredeclined to accept them back and provide refund. I have receipt. This is real shame for you, guys and I will never come to you again.
