I used to love going to Hobby Lobby so much easily spending an hour or more going up and down their isles with big smiles on my face. It was a happy place for me but sadly it will no longer be a place where I'll be spending anymore of my money. I've easily dropped $100,$200 even $500 at times in spending sprees. Today after spending 50 bucks in the morning time and then an additional almost $300 with my husband in the evening due to a sale they were having and we had security called several times the cops were on line one several times. They also requested "LP" come to the front of the store. Well in the meantime we had gone to check out and paid for our stuff and I didn't think twice about the stuff said on loudspeaker in store because I wasn't doing anything wrong and when I went to leave the store with my bagged up items in my cart as my husband was at the register getting our PAID receipt handed to him the lp lady embarrassingly "blocked me" not allowing me to leave the store. She told me I wasn't allowed to leave the store until she sees the receipt and she had to literally check the receipt to make sure that all the items were on there it was humiliating and embarrassing and I will never step foot back in a hobby lobby again after that experience and I will be telling everybody I know about it and asking them to boycott hobby lobby as well I'm considering calling the news stations as well. I have never stolen anything from hobby lobby in my life, I am very angry at how I was treated after spending the money I spent there today. So it's sad that they do this sort of thing even after she knew we paid for everything she was still rude to us both we were very upset. I'm considering returning all I purchased for full refund as I don't want to support a store that has policies that are directed towards innocent people trying to financially support their business. What's ironic is that while she was so focused on harassing us for no good cause an actual shop lifter apparently made off with some stolen goods. Normally I would be upset someone had stolen from the store since it negatively affects us all but I had to laugh this once because it was so ironic and thought serves you right hobby lobby you pick on the honest loyal customer (well once loyal cause now I'm done with them) letting the person committing the crime walk free and escape.
