I had been referred to this store several times as a place to get things embroidered and names painted on items. I am an area teacher and went in to get my name painted on a lunch crate for my classroom this year. The girl behind the counter was helpful enough until a couple of women came running from the back to tell her they were taking NO more orders for painting on tubs until next Wednesday. These women didn't look at me, even when they did talk to me. I asked why there was a problem and they replied that they had rush and bid day. Oh, duh. How could I have been so stupid as to expect a service I would pay for to be completed when there were such important things as rush going on. I, as an almost 30 year old living in a city that has a university in it am apparently at the whim of college students and whether I can get an item painted with my name on it or not.
I was disappointed because I had been told this was such a great shop, but they will never get any of my money. Totally rude and unprofessional. I cannot imagine shutting down a shop to only sorority business. I guess that is what I get for trying to go to a locally owned, specialty shop. I am usually in favor for supporting local markets, but I am really disappointed at this store's policy of only serving sororities during particular times.
Cons: Totally rude
