December 22, 2020. My experience at Hobby Lobby in Gastonia, NC was not a very pleasant one. The discount signs they have placed in different areas of the store can be misleading at times. When I attempted to question the cashier about a particular item that I thought was on sale, she brushed me off as if I didn't matter. So, I spoke with an associate at the door and she explained to me about the discount signs. Signs are randomly placed throughout the store. This does not mean where they are placed, those items are on sale. You really must read the fine print. I accepted her explanation and thanked her. She responded by saying, "Have a good day hon." Emphasis was put on the word hon and spoken in a sarcastic manner. This was an unnecessary and unprofessional way to address a customer! I had not been rude to her and expected the same treatment. As a consumer, I have a right to ask a question about discount advertisements. I will not be returning to Hobby Lobby in Gastonia. Instead, I will shop at Michaels. They have great sales and respectful employees.

Customer service was ruined by cashier, Aliyah C. She never acknowledged my presence. No greeting, no thank u. However, the person behind me got the customer service that I expected. She was not a minority. Overland park store, kansas, 119th metcalf

I am currently standing in line at store #73 where I have in line for almost 20 minutes.. There were only 2 check out persons available.. Of course there were lots of employees milling around restocking their showcases.. This is my last time at this particular location.

I am a professional artist. Recently purchased several tubes of Master Touch oil paints. Mostly air and oil came out when tube opened. While using it was extremely oily. The paintings have taken a month or longer to dry. There was not much paint in the tubes, filled mostly with air and oil. Never buy them again. Extremely dissatisfied.

Love the store, but over the years I have had horrible experiences with the managers, the most recent was today at the Janesville location, I had a complaint about people not wearing masks at this horrible time in Wisconsin, he was disinterested, spoke rudely and monotone and didn’t even respond in a professional manner, being a Christian based store, I feel you need not only professional managers , but one that listens to concerns of his customers, he seemed actually his was upset I spoke about health concerns, I had another experience with a very rude woman manager couple of years ago , it was a horrible experience. I was with family and she knew I was upset about her demeanor. This experience was also very unprofessional. He was older with gray hair and I am not happy to go back in to that store. Please find good managers that have a good moral heart and get rid of the ones that are just there for the money!!! He should be blessed he still has a job, please address this ASAP, will for sure tell others of his unprofessional behavior.

Stood back at the fabric table waiting for help. Manager Chuck stood About 10 feet from me, taking inventory it appeared, and totally ignored me. I had actually ring the bell. When someone finally came, they seemed annoyed that they had to help me. Par for the course at the Emporia, Kansas store.

I genuinely like shopping there, but the last time I went in the lines for checkout were way too long. I purchased 2 plastic 24x36 frames, well it’s taken me 2 days to put my posters in them as the actual black frame doesn’t line back up when I got my poster in. I’m having to use superglue to TRY to get the corners lined up. I didn’t try to return, but I can certainly give you the code on the back of the frame.

In SC they don't require face masks for workers or patrons. Will not step foot in the stores. How can you have such a callous attitude towards customers and workers health

They’re pretty terrible from top to bottom. My experience as a customer is always poor (they can never complete online orders even though the customer pays for shipping) and the company itself is very conservative. Shop with caution.

They have amazing products and in store service is always fantastic. During the pandemic, though, I ordered from online. I received my package and had two items completely broken in several places and two others damaged. I've tried contacting corporate for a week now and they won't accept phone calls directing you to email only. Well, I emailed the first day and have now emailed twice and yet to receive any response. So, I called a Hobby Lobby store about an hour from my location asking if I could bring in my receipt along with the broken items and the damaged items to exchange for items that were not broken. They said when ordering from corporate it has to be dealt back with corporate. So, the in store customer service has been amazing when I've gone to physical locations - always very friendly and helpful. Dealing with an online order - has to be one of the worst experiences I've ever encountered. I'm about to drive an hour to my nearest Hobby Lobby location and just purchase the items again since I cannot receive a response but then do not intend to shop there any longer. If the items weren't matching items to the other ones I got - I wouldn't even bother.

I travel all over the world. I have not seen a person of color working on any Hobby Lobby except in Pratville, Alabama. I would like to know why does Hobby Lobby only hire Caucasian. I had this conversation with my Chamber of Commerce Diversity and Inclusion Board.

I have always been amazed at the amount of religious product at hobby lobby. In the past, I could not find a desk calendar that didn’t have a cross on it. (Would not have been appropriate in my office). This time I went to the Latham, NY store get decorations for my grandchild‘s baptism. I thought hobby lobby would be the best place! I was so wrong. They did not have one baptism decoration. I guess you want to spread the good word but not baptize new Christians? Still shaking my head.

customer service fail. I ordered a gift card 10 days ago. It shipped the same day and was never received. Customer Service is telling me my only option is to have the GC cancelled and refund my money. Can you not cancel the GC and send another one?

Late delivery of my order of $1000+ Order. Tracking says it was but it wasn't. Found it hard for anyone to replay to my emails. Beware things can go wrong at Hobby Lobby!
