I have never in my life heard of a store making a customer pay for a bag. It is downpouring out and…read moreI was going to buy my husband an extremely expensive coffee table book, taking my total to over 100$ but refused to say if they would replace if it was destroyed in the rain walking from their store to my car because they are too cheap to provide their customers with bags. What about the customers that aren't buying just books, you are going to make them carry all their stuff out in their arms? It is not like Aldi discount store, BAM is extremely expensive, they should be able to afford to provide their customers with bags so their products don't get destroyed trying to get to their car. I will NEVER step foot in this store again. DO NOT recommend!!!!

I was in here for a few hours today and I was tired of holding my shopping bag (I walked from five…read morebelow to BAM! and had a five below bag) and 2 books that I was thinking about getting so I slipped them in my bag and was planning on putting them back or buying them. I ended up buying a coffee and forgetting all about the books! I called the store and the employee who answered was pretty nice about the situation, and told me they were just about to call the cops so to come in tomorrow and return the books. All of the employees are very kind, especially the Joe Muggs worker, and speaking of Joe Muggs, I got a "The One Who Shall Not Be Names" frappe and it was amazing. Very strong coffee flavor! I don't know about the $6.55 price tag but the it's still an alright price. (Bathrooms were very clean) *I took off one star because the coffee is so expensive.*

Time to go get some books! And where do I go? Barnes & Noble of course! Here is my experience:…read more When I walk in, I see tons of books, bigger than a regular library (a local one). The service greeted me in, and very nice people, they give out recommendations to people on what books to read. I have read the whole Wings Of Fire Set in 4 months (lol) . They have a large variety of books. Fiction, nonfiction, novels, cookbooks, fantasy, mystery, any genre you can think of, will be at Barnes & Noble. A place to get some coffee as well, at their Starbuck's in Barnes & Noble. Like I said, the people are very nice, they give you discounts on paying on specific for Starbucks in Barnes & Noble for a whole month to use it on for. Like a school calming corner.... Their worth and values are great! The books are great. Everything's great!

I'm literally writing my review for Barnes & Noble while sitting at the cafe inside this very…read moreBarnes & Noble. It's actually why I'm here today. My husband works in Beaumont and while he's out making the big bucks, I'm enjoying bucks of my own - Starbucks. I decided to bring my laptop today to get a little writing done and get caught up on some of my Yelp reviews. Two days ago I walked into this Barnes & Noble for the first time. I noticed a sign out front that they were hosting a book club on Wednesday night (that's TONIGHT!). The book was unfamiliar to me or I'd have been here tonight discussing this book (it looks like a good one too!). My Barnes & Noble doesn't have a book club, so I was really impressed to see that here. The store is clean and looks like any other Barnes & Noble. The layout actually looks a lot like the one near my house in Buffalo. It feels like home. There aren't a ton of customer service people, which could be because I'm here at a slow time or on a slow day. Or maybe they're understaffed. But I will say the store is organized in a way that makes sense, so if you're a book-lover, you probably can figure that part out. If you're shopping for a friend and aren't much of a book person yourself, you may want to get some help. But that shouldn't be a problem. I'd like to think that if someone is working here, it's because he/she loves books. Book lovers are really nice people. :) One of the benefits of shopping at Barnes & Noble is that when you check out, your receipt comes with some book suggestions on it based on what you just purchased. Those can be some great recommendations! And if you're a member, there are great savings there as well, which also transfer to the online store. Plus, you can use your membership card to save in the cafe, which is good because it does not take your Starbucks card/app. The cafe here is staffed by really friendly people and there are plenty of seats in here on a Wednesday afternoon. I don't see a ton of outlets, but there is one in the back corner by the garbage can where the threshold joins the cafe to the puzzles & games. My experience both times I've been here has been positive. I'll probably be spending a good bit of time here for the next couple of weeks while I'm in town, and when I come back again in November.

Major ones are nice because they usually have lots of nice gifts, mugs and bookmarks. But I am also a fan of local bookstores with focus on local authors and dedicated shop keepers. I also love all the Little Free Libraries that are popping up in neighborhoods everywhere. JUST GIVE ME ALL THE BOOKS OKAY!? But I digress. This Barnes & Noble is really nice and large and there are inviting cozy chairs scattered throughout just beckoning you to sit and read a chapter or two. There's a little cafe here that serves coffee and tea and some sandwiches. I saw a book club meeting here and I thought what a great idea that was. I picked up some gifts for my fellow bibliophile friend and of course got myself a few things too. What?! It was for research. Yeah, research. :)
