I ended up buying a pair of Brooks gym shoes and Macy's athletic shoe supply is provided these days by Finish Line, an affiliated vendor to Macy's. I'm also excited to try the well regarded Brooks brand as I have never done so in some 70 years of gym shoe wear lol. I was helped by a friendly young lady named Valerie and it was refreshing to have someone bring out some selections with the right sizes etc, and it nicely felt like the good old days before AI and useless chat-bots. Thumbs up!

By far the worst customer service I have ever experienced. Nordstrom has done a complete 180. What…read moreused to be a special experience is now rotted by egotistical associates. I stopped in on Saturday 4/25/26 for an exchange. We had to search for an associate, to start off. Some were behind the counter on their phones, chit chatting with each other, or hiding behind racks. I felt like I was in a sea of employees with none to be found- strangest experience. I unfortunately found a counter with a lady named Cathy behind it. Cathy falls in top five worst shopping experiences I've ever had. She immediately profiled me, it was actually disturbing. Without letting me say a word about my exchange, she went on and on about why is it her problem and she's a "rule follower". She wouldn't even take the time to pull up my personal book or my mother in laws, who gifted them to my husband. Also, keep in mind, there are no "rules" when it comes to Nordstroms return policy. She was strictly there to give me a hard time and make me feel like I was doing something wrong. Things only went downhill from there when she called her MIC. A male named Eric I believe? African American with a beard. He came down with a quickness and never made eye contact with me once. The two of them together couldn't make one good manager. I found him to be cowardly and an example of the company's poor onboarding & training. It's not too late to invest in a leadership program, let me know if you're interested. My three items were like-new and only tried on. My husband has a bad habit of washing all his clothes before he wears them. He did exactly that in September 2025 to realize the pants fit him poorly on the legs. Since when is that a crime or not allowed? I've posted the return policy directly from their website with my review. It's clear that Cathy and her MIC were only trying to give me, and likely many other customers, a hard time and not service. So much for playing by the rules.

Don't expect to see employees waiting to help you out - Marshall's is really self- service. But the layout will help you locate what you need. Once you find what you were looking for, they have a lot of checkout stations by the exit. Each is numbered and, while you are in line, as the line moves and stations open, the number of station that opened is called out for the next person in line. Their checkout process is very efficient. While I don't go there often, when there is something I need that I believe Marshall stocks, I do check it out.

We only needed a few things and don't often go to Walmart (I don't recall the last time we were there. In terms of inventory - they have everything and their prices are good. Many of the times we were there, it was messy - items on the floor rather than hung up or put back on the shelves, but this time it was neat and tidy. There weren't many shoppers, perhaps because it was a Sunday morning when we were there. The issue with Walmart like most other retailers these days is staffing. There isn't anyone around to provide help if you need it. This time was no different. The only workers we saw were manning the cash registers. If you know what you want, know they have it in stock, and have a general idea of the layout of the store, I'm sure you can find what you need. In cases like ours where we are not regulars and don't know the floor layout, finding items isn't easy and there is no one there to help you. So, for the cleanliness today and the fact they had everything we were looking for at the right price - 4 stars. But since there is virtually no customer service, I'm knocking it down one star to 3.

My daughter picked a simple, but gorgeous dress for her winter formal and I think it was somewhere around $35-$38. We will definitely be shopping here for future dances/formal occasions.

I genuinely don't think I've ever worked this hard to buy a dress…read more We went to Windsor at Woodfield today because my teenage daughter was dying to shop there for a dress. When we arrived, there was a sign saying it would be a 45-minute to 1-hour wait just to ENTER the store. Fine. She really wanted to go. Then we learned you can only take six items into the fitting room. Also fine. But apparently, if you need another size or want to try another dress after entering the fitting room, you have to LEAVE the store, get back into the 45-minute+ line OUTSIDE, and start over. What?! Once we finally got inside, another mom had the brilliant idea to immediately get into the fitting room line while our daughters shopped. Thank goodness we did because that line stretched from the fitting rooms, past the registers, almost to the front of the store, and wrapped around. So my 8-year-old and I stood in line while my teenager picked her six dresses. For context, my 8-year-old had played flag football in the rain that morning and was being an absolute trooper through this entire ordeal. And then came the sentence every mother dreads when trapped halfway through an enormous line: "Mommy, I have to go potty." She tried to hold it. She really did. Knowing there wasn't a restroom in the store, I asked an employee what would happen if I took my 8-year-old to the bathroom. I specifically explained that neither she nor I were trying anything on, my teenage daughter was still inside shopping, and we'd already waited in the entrance line. I was told that if we left for my child to use the bathroom, we would have to go back outside and wait in the entire entrance line again. Seriously? We tried to wait. We waited another 30 minutes before it became clear that an 8-year-old bladder was not going to cooperate with Windsor's crowd-control policy. So, I took her to the bathroom. When we returned, the SAME employee who knew exactly why we'd left stopped us and insisted we couldn't reenter without waiting in the outside line again. I explained that my teenage daughter was literally still inside, waiting to try on dresses, and I was the person PAYING for them. Her solution? "You can Apple Pay her." At that point, I was done debating the logistics of an 8-year-old bathroom emergency. I told her my daughter was inside, we had already waited to enter, and I walked back in. My teenager was mortified. The mom I'd been standing with told me she would've done exactly the same thing. And the insanity didn't end there. After roughly another 30 minutes, my daughter FINALLY reached the fitting rooms and tried on her six dresses. My 8-year-old and I immediately got into the next enormous line - the checkout line - while she finished deciding. Once she picked her dress, we handed her my credit card and went for a walk because at this point my 8-year-old deserved financial compensation for her time. Frankly I did too. We settled for a smoothie. We did eventually leave with a dress because it's what my daughter wanted, but between the hour-long entrance line, enormous fitting-room line, enormous checkout line, six-item restriction, inability to grab another size without apparently starting your entire Windsor journey over again, and a policy that doesn't accommodate a CHILD NEEDING TO USE THE BATHROOM... Next time, I'm ordering online. The dress is cute. The experience was absolutely not worth it. Do not recommend. We will not be coming back. Ever. 0/10 stars
