Each time we come here the store seems spotless and well run. Kudos to the management. My wife purchased two pair of shoes and really enjoyed the service! Now...let's talk about those prices.

I recently visited Dillard's to buy shoes for my 4-year-old, and unfortunately, it was one of the…read moremost frustrating retail experiences I've had in years. I don't typically shop in-person, but I had this idea that we might get help with sizing and understanding of the difference between the brands if we went in-person. Maybe there was SOME reason to still make the hike out to a box store, as opposed to buying on Amazon. Well, after waiting 20-30 minutes, trying on the display shoes, no staff in sight, and my 4-year-old begging to leave - I had no choice but to help myself.... In hindsight, yes, I should have just left and taken my business elsewhere, but my son already picked out a toy...so, I was pretty set on getting him shoes, a toy, and heading out. Anyway, after trying on all of the display shoes that I could find, I finally went into the back to grab several pairs of shoes so I could start fitting my child/hopefully complete my purchase. I was balancing six or seven boxes and organizing them for my son to start trying on when two staff arrived. I was finally asked if I needed help. Ha! I said that yeah I really did need help, but I had everything I needed at the moment. So, then, one member got a real stern voice and serious look on her face to tell me customers were NOT allowed in the back room. Like I was in the wrong or did something wrong - In front of my child. I said I wasn't sure if anyone was working the area, or if it had turned into a self-serve option. (Everything else has). I explained I had been waiting for almost half an hour, and I just wanted to try on some shoes. The staff member then told me that they had not been off the floor THAT long. Again, in front of my child. Like - why are you arguing with me about the amount of time I was waiting without help?? A simple, 'I'm so sorry for the wait--let me help you from now on though, because I'm the one that should be getting things from the back FOR you' would have resolved everything. Instead, the staff chose to reprimand me, argue over irrelevant details like how long they were gone from their post (you think I WANT to go do your job), and generally make me feel extremely awkward and unwelcome. To make matters worse, they stood off to the side glaring at me as I juggled putting shoes on my kid AND putting ones that didn't work back into their boxes. Wouldn't it have been helpful to assist me in that moment? Wouldn't it be great to say, "Hey, I'm sorry we got off on the wrong foot there at first...but, can I help a mom out by putting these shoes away for you if they don't work?" For reference, I purchased $130 worth of shoes and toys from the store that day and had intended to buy multiple pairs of shoes if anyone had been proactive in helping. But, honestly, it was easier to just go to Belk.

Sadly, the Merle Norman store there closed at the end of last year, so I have to go to downtown Athens to get my MN fix. This is my favorite super Target in HSV., their merch is more upscale and the store has maintained its cleanliness despite its age. I love HH at Mezza Luna and their oysters.

It tastes like your Umma made it. The regular kimchi Costco sells is sliced. I am used to slicing the fermented Napa cabbages each time versus opening a container and having pieces. This new green leaf kimchi has a great flavor. After it was opened, it started to sour which is normal. I made fried rice with it and it was great. The kimchi needs to really sour before I can make soondubu jigae. Yum!

I want to highlight about my experience during an emergency this Sunday at Costco tires…read more We had an emergency: our tires were ripped on our way to drop my wife off for a marathon at 6:00 a.m. We somehow changed to the spares and frantically booked an appointment nearby. The earliest available was at 11:30 a.m. Hoping against hope, we went to see if we could get an earlier appointment at around 9.30 AM. This is when we met Rob, who was godsent. He was beyond amazing in understanding our problem and helping us through this. At 9.30 am, he not only checked for our tires in the inventory but also moved our appointment to 10 AM and made sure that it was properly aligned and ready for the trip. We also made it back on time to see my wife cross the finish line :) Once again, thanks to Rob and the team's amazing service. We are beyond happy and thankful for their service. Yet another example how Costco takes care of its members and its amazing value for customers.

I BARELY EVEN RECOGNIZE YOU!…read more I am visiting the city and happen to be in an area that is questionable when it comes to quality shopping. However, when I saw Stein Mart I was very excited and hopeful that I would be able to find a nice black maxi sweater. I did not want anything casual and if it had a little bling that would be perfect. If you are accustomed to shopping in the Atlanta area stores, you will probably be disappointed by this store which is much smaller and therefore very limited in content. Although they had a couple of cute pieces, I was disappointed overall. I was really surprised by the cheap acrylic sweaters that they are featuring for fall. I will never accept style over quality because I don't like pieces that look cheap and I prefer natural fibers when it comes to sweaters because they just look more polished and will last longer. While I love Stein Mart, this one just does not measure up and so my search continues.
