This business in River Oaks shopping center garners its business from the ladies shopping at the…read morekid's store next door and the supermarket. It caters to high priced bric-a-brac, holidays ornaments, and baby gifts. My problem with the store is the clannish "you ain't from around here" attitude. Over the years of living in Abilene, I've been to the store probably five times, looking for baby gifts. The clerks, whether young or old, have all been just...rude. Either they are totally focused on whichever elderly 'society lady" is gracing the establishment, or they are on the phone or talking to each other at the desk. If they do greet you, it's to aggressively inquire what you're looking for, and if you reply you are just looking, forget it. They'll scowl at you from the desk, sure that you're fingering their merchandise for pocketing. Now, I want to add that I am a middle aged woman, well dressed, and I smile and prepare myself to greet the saleswoman upon entry. I don't know who is training the people who work there to act like this! I honestly don't know why I keep giving them a chance, once a year or so. I can honestly say the best experience I ever had there was seeing something in the window, going in, taking it directly to the desk, and exchanging all of two sentences with the clerk- "yes, that's it", and "thanks" being handed my bag. When I'm told to "shop locally", I laugh and wonder if these businesses have any idea why we shop online.

When I washed shirt it shrunk..so I thought maybe I just got a bad shirt cause the brand is usually a good brand. So I went back and asked the owner if he would make me a new one cause it shrunk . The shirt shrunk in the arms,neck and it was shorter..omg you would have thought I asked for a million dollars. He got very rude and started looking for a same size shirt so I thought he was going to replace it but no he took a shirt down to measure it to mine and he was like it's the same size very rude like I was crazy.. I asked him one more time to please replace he said no that had to take up with t-shirt manufacture I was like are you serious..i didn't want my money back I just wanted another shirt..i will not ever go back!!
