All I did was tell them our team name and their artists immediately sent an awesome design for my approval. Nothing had to be tweaked- they designed exactly what I wanted on the first try. A & R Screening responded promptly to all my questions and even added on a shirt last minute for a late participant. The shirts were ready more than a week before game time and pick up was smooth. My order (sizes/fits) was 100% accurate. There were over 30 teams at the softball tournament and I was told several times that our team definitely won best uniforms. If you need customized t-shirts-, A & R Screening is the place to go.

Dedicated needlework stores are few and far between these days, and I'm lucky I have such a good…read moreone near me. The sign on the store reads "For Those Addicted to Cross Stitch," and there are certainly a lot of cross stitch patterns and supplies, but you can also find needlepoint, hardanger, needlepunch and supplies for other needlework techniques there, too. Not every designer is carried (you would need a HUGE store to accomplish that), but new merchandise comes in frequently, and Barb, the owner, will gladly order anything she doesn't have in the shop. And speaking about Barb, she is one of the friendliest people I've met. She knows all of her customers by name, and I have never seen her in a bad mood. Her staff are equally as friendly. You are always greeted when you come in, and you have only to ask for help, but no one hovers over you. The shop may be a little tricky for first-time shoppers to find. Beacon is a small side street just a couple of blocks west of LaGrange Road, and they are on the second floor--no street-level storefront. But once you find it, you'll see it was worth the effort to look for it.

I always think of Michael's first whenever I am doing any kind of craft. Whether it's crocheting,…read morepumpkin carving, or finding materials to make my boyfriend a noose or a gallows, I always come here. They do have quite a wide range of things you can do for crafts. If you're looking for something crafty to do that already comes in a box and you jut have to put it together, you may want to shop at Walmart or Toys R Us. But those of us crafty enough can come here to figure things out. I wanted to buy a couple of cylindrical jars, such as the ones you can put sand or pebbles in the bottom to hold candles. Not only did I learn that they have these items, but that you can buy in bulk here as well. So if you're looking to put center-pieces together for your wedding, I would see what kind of prices you can get here when buying in bulk before going somewhere else or paying out the dupa(sp?) to have someone else decorate for you! Or even if you just want to enter into the Guinness Book of World Records for knitting your Grandma the worlds longest scarf, I would recommend coming here!

The prices are on par with most other local cop/fire supply stores; that is, they are overly…read moreexpensive. Part of this is because you could paint a turd black, call it tactical, and a cop would buy it. These stores know this. However, the main reason they can be (and are) so expensive is because they know that they are generally selling to people with a uniform allowance or department purchase order; in these professions, that's called "not my money." So people spend 50% more for items than they ever would if it were coming out of their pockets. $80 for a pair of crappy Blauer uniform pants is not unheard of. But since it is the department's money, no one cares. The prices for clothing items here are almost identical to what you would pay at Ray O'Herron, Eagle, JCM in Joliet, JG Uniform on the NW side of Chicago, etc. For the price gouging, I took away one star. Smart people know to buy items like flashlights, holsters, etc. online where they are much cheaper. Where the Tinley Cop Fire Shop stands above and beyond these other stores, all of whom I've used with my department uniform allowance over years of being a cop, is the tailor they have on staff as of 02/13/2019. (I can't remember her name.) She does outstanding work on outer body armor carriers, from the fit to the stitching. She can add molle, embroider your badge/name, or make custom sized pockets for additional charges. One unique service she offers is that she will do a "rush" job on your carrier for $20 to have it in a month, or $40 additional to have it in two weeks (pricing as of the time of this writing). I paid the $40 extra for my carrier and got it in exactly two weeks, with zero errors on it. The material she used is higher quality and more durable than previous carriers I have purchased at all of the previously mentioned businesses. I have waited up to six months for a carrier at Ray O'Herron, constantly getting excuses. They didn't care, because they already had my (department's) money. I know people who have waited longer. So, you'll pay for it at Tinley Cop Fire Shop, but what you get (if getting tailored items) is well worth it. I would give JG Uniform (practically on the opposite side of the world from Tinley, lol) second place. I have no affiliation with any of these business, and am only making my recommendations based on years of using all of them. * PS If you look at other reviews, you will notice that Karen T. only gave one star. You will also notice that Karen T. gives EVERYTHING one star; that is, she is an internet complainer who only leaves negative reviews. I'm surprised Yelp doesn't monitor this.
