Micheal's craft store deliberately puts out in-store FRAUDULENT Signs in the Jewellery making aisles, especially around X-MAS holidays (to new years) to take advantage of the rushed/stressed/over-tired customers so that they don't bother to complain or return these items in long line ups, thus Micheal's corporation takes advantage of these manipulative illegal marketing tactics!!!
Even though I was FULLY AWARE of their deceptive signs because of my past and costly experience before, I still got CONNED AGAIN, over what should be simple/clear sales signs and how they are displayed. I had spent at least 2 hours and over $500.00 dollars and was shocked to find out this happened again but in different ways! So later that night, I was so stressed out that I went back to the store and returned a number items, which really I should have returned all of it, but I made commitments to family members long ago for their late x-mas presents.
So no more CONsumer X-mas's...Screw that!!!
While in the store again, I showed my guy and two other women shoppers the signs in the jewellery/bead aisles and objectively asked them how they do read this signs and they saw it the exact same way as I did! It was obviously not a subjective matter, but an illegal CON-JOB matter!
Over the weekend I showed the examples to three more people and they totally agreed too, which is now 7 out 7 people which we can't be all wrong...right? Of course the manager in the store tried to explain to otherwise, but I PROVED her wrong and I was more INSULTED, that she has to follow the corporate con jobs rather than just be honest with me. All one has to do is look up on many other sites about tons of employee complaints at Micheal craft stores, and I do feel for the staff that have to put up with alot of Micheal's economic slave labour bullshit too. (check out their custom ripped off framing complaints too..lol its obvious!)
Btw...DON'T Ever believe any corporate customer service when they tell you..."Oh, we take your calls very seriously and we'll have our marketing manager call you back" Friggin" LIE!!!! Twice I have contacted their head office (in the states) only to have them make you explain everything all over again, and make you wait for days for no manager that was suppose to call you back! No these coward scumbags may only listen to their monitored calls for possible lawsuit/liability issues but that's all! Its doesn't matter ladies, if you were big spenders at Michaels like I was for years, there is NO loyality any more! Those days are over!!!
Still to this day...I am so upset at these deliberate illegal tactics that I think I will just have to return all the rest of the of my purchases, but there goes another $50.00 in gas as its very long distance (here in Saskatchewan) back to the closest store and waste more of my time as well.
After I deal with this terrible experience, I will NEVER shop again there, but I sure will inform as many people as possible for the REST of my life...about these con-job corporations....they just get slyer all the time, and people really need to be more aware!
So..STICK THAT MICHEAL'S CRAPSTORE FOR YOUR SO CALLED MARKETING--2--SCREW--U DEPARTMENT!!!! YOU ARE ALL SELLOUTS AND YOU KNOW IT !!!!
DO NOT LET YOUR PURSE OUT OF YOUR SIGHT! My entire wallet was stolen from my cart! My cart was arms legenth away at all times but still someone managed to steal from my purse! When I told the manager he was not sympathetic and shrugged it off said it happens all the time and he was "not allowed " to view cameras. The store was not crowded for all he knows it could of been an employee. He offered zero assistance . Maybe if there are thieves stealing from your customers you should do something about it ???! Just saying I will NOT BE BACK.
