I didn't have the most comfortable experience here. I was recently sent a 60%-off coupon, so I decided I'd go to Michael's and get one of their Lemax Spooky Town village pieces. I live just outside Urbana so it's a long drive to Beavercreek, but I work in Xenia so I drove about 20 minutes to Michael's after work. When I got there, I realized I forgot my phone with my coupon on it at work. It was one of those days. I drove the 20 minutes back to work, grabbed my phone, and drove all the way back to Michael's. I went inside, got my item, and went to check out. I presented my coupon and was told by the cashier that the Spooky Town pieces were on sale for 30% off and that she couldn't take off my coupon. I asked if she could just take it off the retail price; I didn't need both discounts, I just really wanted to use the coupon I was sent (and that I had just driven all around the county to get). The cashier was very stern and rude to me, saying that it was against her policy and she couldn't do what I was asking her to do. I understand that, but the news deflated me and made me very depressed, especially with the way she was speaking to me. She made me feel like a child. Had I really wasted all this time when I should have just gone home? I took a breath and told the cashier as genuinely as I could about all the driving I had done just to use this coupon, hoping it would at least make her feel some sympathy and to let her know that I wasn't just another customer trying to get his way. I hate when customers complain and raise a fuss, but the cashier was speaking so loudly and with so much offense that the people waiting in line behind me probably thought I was trying to do something unspeakable. I just wanted to use my coupon. That's it. The woman told me I would have to wait for the manager. I stepped aside, and it was then that I realized the manager was standing at the next register. She came over and asked me what was wrong, even though she'd heard the whole thing. I briefly explained, but she was just as rude as the cashier, talking to me like she was patronizing a child, even though I was clearly upset and had already taken the beating enough from the other woman. The manager finally said she would take off my coupon from the retail price, but she grilled me the entire time, saying I should have downloaded their app to check their sales before I came. I left feeling exhausted and honestly couldn't have cared less about the Spooky Town building. The enjoyment of having it wasn't worth the hassle. I used to love going to Micheal's whenever I was in the area, but I will be staying far away from there now simply because I don't want to face their robotic and unfriendly staff again. read more
