I encountered one associate who was really helpful with finding a coupon for me. That's about the best thing I can say for this party city. For starters, the shelves were bare. Maybe they were rearranging, I'm not sure but there were three nearly empty aisles and then a huge open area completely in disarray. If you actually manage to find what you're looking for, the prices are outrageous. Honestly, i went to four different places today looking for the exact same thing and at the first three places the item was within a dollar of the pricing at the other places. At Party City, the exact item was FIVE DOLLARS more!!!! Literally, the exact same item. This was the case for several products I was comparing prices on. I walked out of party city not buying anything today and instead went to other stores to spend my money. Party City would be wise to get with the ages and be more competitive on their prices. read more
