This gift store however is well distributed, with a nice bathroom items, frames, hooks, very mod flower vases, jewellery, Xmas ornaments, and lastly gag gifts. There is a nice assortment of ice cube trays from cold fish to frozen smiles. There are cool jazz swizzle sticks and there doesn't seem to be a lack of items made by Umbra. The most amusing area of the store however is the books that are for sale. With titles like "I Don't Give a Frock", "How can you tell your boyfriend isn't the anti-Christ"," How to be an everyday philanthropist", and "When housewives go bad". This again is an ideal gift store for that person that has everything, or if you don't really know the person you are shopping for, in all likelihood you won't go wrong by purchasing something here at Twisted Goods.

You won't find Monopoly here, but you will find the popular games that many of the large toy stores don't carry like Dominion, Munchkin, Catan, etc. On the back wall there is a solid selection of Ravensberger puzzles and in the front corner of the store has a healthy comic book rack. The far side of the store contains Warhammer paraphernalia. They have three tables set up with terrain along the far wall. The majority of the Warhammer stock is 40K so if you're a base player, you'll find the selection limited. I overheard the owner talking to some customers that he likes to hear what people are talking about before he orders stock in so if you want something, ask.

Their website is happy to advertise a return policy only they don't say you have to pay for insurance on the plants for when they die. Be smarter than I was and don't spend your money with a garden center that has to do business this way. Any reputable center will always at the very least give you another plant. When I called to speak with someone about the dead shrub a woman with an accent was by far the rudest person I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. She was not interested in making any attempt in trying to do the right thing, she was just smug and ignorant in telling me I had to buy insurance. I will never spend money here again and will go out of my way to stop anyone else from making the same mistake as me.

On Wednesday September 2nd I had the worst customer service experience EVER!…read more First I drove 20km to the NE Calgary Store to buy a charging dock advertised in your online flyer. I searched the store and finally had to ask an employee where it was (showing him the device on my phone). He asked for the SKU # which I found and gave to him. He said that location didn't have it, but the South store had 18. WHY ARE YOU ADVERTISING SOMETHING THAT YOU DON'T HAVE AT ALL LOCATIONS? We decided to drive to the south store, as we wanted to buy a couple. We drove another 20km + to the south store. I can see why INDEED.COM has so many negative employee comments. The first lady I talked to was terse and wouldn't even look at me (customers are an inconvenience I guess). The 2nd person said "I don't know where they are," and began walking away. I asked if she could find someone that did, to which she responded by going to a computer (in a huff). She asked for the SKU # which I gave her. She said they have them and they should be on the floor, but said she would check in the back. 10 minutes later she came back and said "I can't find them." Having gone out of my way to find and purchase the item, I asked for the Managers name. She said "Owen" but didn't know his last name. I went to the front till and asked another person, who also did not know (and also was visibly perturbed by my presence) and finally asked another employee who said his last name is Frank. Your inventory control is bad, but your customer service is even worse. There were customers AND staff that were not wearing face masks properly or at all. I can see why your reviews are generally negative and existing and former staff hate(d) working there. I have purchased a number of things from your store that I found on REBEE (online flyer)- I will never enter your store again. When retail in general is hurting so bad, AND THIS IS HOW YOU TREAT CUSTOMERS!? WOW. I will also encourage friends, family and others to NEVER shop at Princess Auto again. I am fiercely customer service oriented and this could/should have been easily addressed. So disappointed.

the past 6 months, I have had several nasty experiences with Michaels . . The issues were primarily…read morewith the Shawnessy store in Calgary, from items missing to incredibly rude and disrespectful staff. When I inquired about my missing items at the Shawnessy store, the store associate actually raised her had to stop me from speaking, then demanded I empty my bag so she could see that I wasn't hiding the item. Another occasion, the store manager demanded to see the email from Michael's showing items were ready for pu up and when I showed a text version, she refused to accept it and demanded the original. When I explained that it was identical and that I didn't have the email on my phone, she said there was nothing she could do and walked away. I left feedback with the Customer Care line and received a call from the district manager for Calgary and Manitoba. I missed the call but returned her message within 2 hours. After 2 days of not hearing from her, I sent an email to her. I received a response after 2 days after that telling me that if " i wanted to connect with her, I could contact her during a few windows when she was free": The onus is not on me to chase her down, she stated in her initial phone message to me that she would " like to make it right". Ignoring me, then finally telling me to work around her availability is not making it right. Clearly, the poor service culture at Michaels does not fall far from the management tree. There is a reason why online companies like Temu offering similar products for a fraction of the price of Michael's are doing booming business. This type of shoddy customer disservice should not be rewarded by giving them business. See less
