What local shoppers say

5 out of 5!! Absolutely LOVED this place. At first I was skeptical of the procedures but it 100% made sense once we got started. I Absolutely LOVED Erin. Erin stood up for me and definitely made sure to check on how I was feeling multiple times throughout my appointment and at any point I was overwhelmed we stopped…

I was able to visit this store late last month when my family had their annual apple picking event last month! And apart of the even was visiting this store to do shopping especially being from Chicago you could find some great items in great quality for cheap!

I wanted to recognize Camille, from 9-22-24. When I was checking out, she was fantastic. She saw the red pair of Sorrel boots I'd fallen in love with and we engaged in a lively conversation (more than just boots, we found common ground within life, kids etc).
