It wasn't the day of, but their staff were happy to point me towards their available pokemon TCG offerings, and I picked up a couple singles and some penny sleeves. The staff have always been super helpful and friendly, and didn't make me feel unwelcome at all. I loved seeing the other gaming supplies they have, especially the retro consoles and games. Lots of good options throughout the store. A cool and fun place to visit. I'll be glad to stop by again another time.

Called them on them phone to ask if they buy a certain product and one of their employees said they…read moredid when I got there they said nobody would have said they buy that certain product. Drove from a different town, all for them to say none of the employees would've told me that over the phone. Very unprofessional

They came to my school for the weekend and sold me a steam siege pack FOR $60 DOLLARS. I thought it…read morewas worth it because the guy told me how it has good Pokémon in it and there's a chance of a Charizard. Me at this time, getting back into Pokémon and not knowing prices trusted the experts and paid then later found out these packs go FOR $10-15$ on eBay and other platforms. They also sold me a evolving skies pack at a high price, but im not too upset about that since it was sold to me for $35 and the median for a pack is $25-$33.

I told him I do it a cash deal for what was discussed and Jacob said I didnt ask you to come here. The worst experience I had ever had at a dealership period. Think twice before you even try to make a deal. They also added a extra 9k on the so called deal. Horrible to deal with Jacob.

The name says it all! These are your favorite classic little games except...they're gigantic! Which…read moremade it 10x more fun!! I decided to rent a few of these games for an event this past weekend and they were the highlight of the day. It's a great way to entertain the guests and keep them busy, especially all the kids! We rented the connect four: This one was my favorite. It was an easy setup and given the gigantic features, I was surprised at how sturdy and firm the pieces were. Jenga: This one was very simple. Everybody knows jenga! It was a little windy that day which gave us a little challenge but they didn't even budge! Good solid build! Ladder golf: This one was fun too. It's harder than it looks, just don't get the balls stuck in the tree!! Lol Definitely will rent again! Maybe I'll try and add the corn hole game too! I was able to get in touch with Ampy about a few questions I had about pickup and the actual sizes of the games and she was just great! I highly recommend gigantic lawn games!!

Hobby shop itself is packed pretty well if you're on the Traxxas train or have a vehicle by one of the big racing brands. Don't show up with something not in those categories and expect to get help though. Randy, the owner is a really nice guy and is very helpful. If it wasn't for the older guys that seem to live there it would be a more inviting place for new drivers. Edit: after seeing the heated arguments/fights at this last event I know for sure I won't be coming back any time soon. Grown men yelling over toy cars is ridiculous.

I forgot how big this store is, Memorial Day and Fourth of July supplies and declarations are out in abundance. My wife was with me so I knew this short stop in was gonna take a little longer and I was right. I wasn't able to find the stencils that I was looking for it, we made it through the store, looking at all the different departments. We got some good ideas for future projects. Lots of employees were working stocking different areas. Most all were helpful. I found some foam brushes that I use at a great price. I bought two packs from Lucy at the checkout she was super friendly with a great smile and personality. Hobby lobby was a great experience with the American flags, red white and blue decorations, and 4th of July displays I was even more patriotic and proud to be American when I left. I'll be back.
