More important than quantity is the prices for a quality item. I ended up getting 3 summer dresses for less than $60. This makes my heart sing! Mom found 2 dresses as well so a long day turned into a short trip and we had plenty of time for a day drink!

What a cool boutique and mall concept into one! Had a great…read moretime shopping here and I love the whole idea of Small Business owners connecting into one mall. Lovely layout of different small businesses. Lots of unique stores and items. I love certain shops and have bought several items several times now. So many Iowa/Iowa State shops, Christian brands, home goods, home made items, candles, clothing, 3D printed items. Always something unique to find. There was one time I purchased an item and didn't know it was broken till I got home. I went back to the store and the manager called the small businesses owner. The owner was very kind to allow a refund. Typically they don't but I was so thankful that this owner really cared about her product and customer. I would highly recommend Painted Tree for unique shopping. I'm looking to go back for a Christmas shopping spree. This place is packed out every week so be prepared for lots of people and a little bit of crowds. And rightfully so, it's such a cool shopping mall and experience!

They hired a well experience manager who started addressing the issues and apparently her experience level and ethics didn't align with how the company wants to handle customers/vendors so they quickly let her go. I would not rent a booth here, I wouldn't shop here, and they probably need to be investigated for their business practices.

I am not one for invasive sales associates, but zero effort was made at this store. I asked two associates at the counter whether they had other bras in the same size and style (different pattern). It was like crickets. They did not show me any other options or even point me to where they were. At that point I knew more about them than they did. I also asked if they had a pair of pants in the same size and waistband but a wider leg. Again, they had no clue what they carried and what they didn't. These were basic black pants that they always carry, not a weird line or style. I gathered up the things I had planned on buying, and their cash register system was down. No apologies. I asked if they had any coupons. They didn't know. The entire experience was frustrating because it was quite obvious they did not want to be there. I left the store without purchasing anything and bought what I wanted online.

The associate was very helpful. I was able to quickly find a sweater top that fit, looked good and had a good price. PLUS, the top is one I will war in the future. This shop and associate were an outfit-saver.

They have a very large selection of clearance shoes in the back of the store. Lots and lots of shoes. There are benches for you to sit to try on. If money is no object, you should be able to find a pair of shoes there no problem. There is so much for selection. I just can't justify spending that much for a pair of winter boots, that I might wear a couple times a year. i know they do have an email and mailing list you can get on for coupons.

It looks just like a Marshall's and TJ Maxx store. The layout and ambiance of it…read more Items are priced higher. I found many trendy and popular items here and maybe this is where the trend starts. Ok selection of home goods, women's clothing, and kids clothing. Not so much for shoes, men's, or toys. Came here at 2:00pm on a Friday and it was packed! (Don't people work?!)

HomeGoods is kinda like a better Tj Max, but then again I think the company that owns Tj Max owns…read moreHomeGoods so maybe they just share the same stuff! One thing to know is they have a ton of stuff here, and it's all in pretty nice condition. Stuff for bathrooms, kitchens, living room spaces, bedroom etc. We were looking for a small cabinet for a bathroom, and they had lots of storage things just not anything we were looking for! We did end up buying some soaps and the line moved pretty fast with 4 cashiers working. I found it funny that they only had huge oversize bags that would fit pillows but if you were buying a bunch of small stuff it would be a waste to the environment! Oh well good lesson to bring my yelp canvas bag next time! All in all, nice store, nice stuff, probably changes all the time... Think Tj Max but better or think Tj Max but the same!

They have some designer brands for much cheaper than they would sell for at department stores. The selection is always changing- keeping up with the trends. Just walking in there will inspire you to completely redecorate your home! (Which could be very dangerous) You're bound to find something you'll love.

They have items as vast as gourmet food items to furniture and everything in between. I really enjoy cruising all of the different clearance items. I can usually find treasures that I did not know I even needed. Locally we lack too many housewares stores so Home Goods is a welcome store that sells items at a very reasonable price. Next time you are looking for a gift this is a must try place. I am confident you will not be disappointed. You must come without anything in mind and let your imagination take over.
