Careful with "ordering". They nail you to the wall with shipping/handling
charges. Much better to
purchase directly from one of their stores if possible.

So far they've charged me exactly what they said they would for s&H. I
thought it was a maximum of 9 dollars??

And some of the sale prices on the web and in catalogs aren't found in
the stores. Although the cashier said if they had the item, they
would usually sell it at the catalog price, but you'd have to ask if
they didn't have it marked that way. Probably have to have the
catalog with you, or a printout.

I asked and you can't return things to stores that you buy online (or
over the phone, I presume). If you could, people would buy loads of
stuff, look at it and return a lot of it to the store. Having to box
it and ship it back slows people down. And you probably can't return
by mail what you buy in the store.

The stores close at 7PM, 6 on Saturday and 5 on Sunday. The 7 is
early compared to a lot of stores these days, and I've been turned
away at least twice.

Just wondering what all experiences you have had with them, good and bad?
thinking of ordering stuff from them but reluctant due to 'no name' nature
of prods.
TIA
