Going on a recommendation from a friend I have visited this shop several times and bought quite a lot. Previously I've had pleasant experiences, however yesterday it was a horrible experience, so much so I wont be visiting again. I arrived after work, looking tired and under pressure to find a present for my friends birthday and to top that off I have a massive bruise on my face from a DIY project at the weekend. So on this visit I was prejudged straight away by the two women serving that day. Then I was just bombarded by one of the women trying to sell me something off her area. I was scared to touch anything as she would say 'Oh you like that, I have one of those, hold on....' After about 3 suggestions and my reply always being no, you would think that person would get the hint! But no! What about this crappy drift wood mirror, would your friend like that! Err, no thanks! Take the hint, leave me to look in peace! Anyway after politely saying no to the trio tea cup set, the vintage vase, the decanter, the drift wood mirror and god knows what else, the woman had obviously got the hump and then started to shut the blinds ready to pack up, I said are you closing soon...'Yeah we are in a couple of minutes, and literally followed me forcing me up the aisle to the counter to pay and go. Very unpleasant atmosphere at the till from both ladies, I paid for my sugar bowl (For myself) and said thanks very much, goodbye (for the way you just treated me) And the hard-seller-drift-wood-woman threw me the dirtiest look! I came out birthday present-less and upset. So I went over to the flower shop an bought a bouquet instead. The girls were lovely in there! I've always thought this shop is slightly over priced, but I enjoyed popping in while in Lichfield. Never again! read more
