I have always loved BB&W, regardless of the prices. We went in after going to see a movie. I wanted…read moreto buy some Christmas scented goodies to finish preparing for what was supposed to be my son coming home for Holiday leave in the Army. We entered the store the same time as an older couple. And normally they have greeters at the BB&W stores. All 3 greeters went tlstraihht to the older couple ( dressed in their Sunday best). and completely ignored us, no one came to see if we needed help, or said hi, nothing. There was no chatting about our seasonal selections. Now I have been a loyal BB&W shopper for over 20 years and have been to many of their stores(thank you Army). We finally found what we wanted, went tp pay and their girl at the register looked like she was channeling her inner Scrooge. I was even duped over my birthday gift, whatever. So, after another of ,I spent too much. I told my guy that I was never shopping at this location ever again. I will order online or go farther away to a different store. And FYI... Treat your customers the same.

Also look for all the Greedo figures hidden around the shop. You can also pick up a length of twine there to add to the ball. A good stop when you are in the area.

We visited this place today and actually I thought it deserved four stars, but more about that…read morelater. Lucas is a tiny town, but it's become a center of grassroots art (for example, self-taught artists and folk art/etc.). The Grassroots Art Center has a permanent exhibit for which the charge is $6.50 (it's not a real large exhibit, but there's some neat stuff) and it also has some colorful items for sale in the main room. In addition, there's a good-sized room where lectures are given. The woman working there today was very enthusiastic (also a little pushy, but we ended up really benefiting from our visit and therefore I don't begrudge her). We wanted to visit the infamous Florence Deeble House, and someone from the Grassroots Art Center needs to take people there (it's free of charge). It just so happened that a festival was held in Lucas today, and the artist who made all of the items on the walls of the house was in town. The woman at the Grassroots Arts Center had the artist take us and another couple on a tour of the house - and that house is FASCINATING! The artist (Pilar) has - during the past 11 (I think) years - made *thousands* of colorful, unusual and fascinating objects that are hanging all over each wall in the house. It's truly indescribable and she told us many interesting anecdotes. If you're within a few hours of Lucas, I highly recommend a visit (there's little else to see, with the exception of Eric Abraham's Flying Pig Studio and Gallery [see my separate review] - and admittedly Pilar isn't often available to give tours of the Deeble House - but we were enthralled). The reason why I gave five stars is because the Grassroots Art Center enables a visit to the extraordinary Florence Deeble House. HOURS: May-September: 10-5 on Monday-Saturday and 1-5 on Sunday. October-April: 10-4 on Thursday-Saturday & Monday, and 1-4 on Sunday.
