Well, I've never been to Michael's so I guess I'd say Hobby Lobby. However, it's been a large number of years since I was last in a Hobby Lobby, so I've no idea what it's like now.  :-

I shop at both.  Michaels has a lot of crafty stuff but Hobby Lobby offers so much more.

I always preferred AC Moore to Michaels but where I live now has a Hobby Lobby which is my 'go to' store for everything!

I love Hooby Lobby, new to area here so maybe just because they are  new store, but Michaels is closer so they get more business

I like both, but the Hobby Lobby is too far from me for regular visits.  If I had my pick of one to have in my town, though, it'd probably be Hobby Lobby.

I usually go to Hobby Lobby. I really only go for scrapbooking stuff, and Hobby Lobby is much closer to my house. I think they have better sales.

I've been to Michaels and it's ok, never Hobby Lobby. I use to do crafts years ago, but not anymore.

I have not been in a Hobby Lobby in a long time, I need to see if there is one near me.  I love all crafts stores.

Post by: gbabesmom on May 03, 2012, 07:11:34 am

There isn' t a hobby lobby near me so I would go to Micheal's but really I go to Walmart to get my yarn and cloth. If I need craft items like felt or a fancier yarn I'll go to Micheal's or A/C moore.

We don't have a Hobby Lobby or a Michaels in our small town but lately we've been going to the larger town about 35 miles from here and going to Hobby Lobby.  A lady at the shop where my daughter is getting her wedding dress said Hobby Lobby has better selection and prices are little cheaper.  We are making our daughters' flower arrangements for the tables at her reception and are going back this weekend as it will be their 50% off florals.  Thats quite a savings if you're making 20 or so arrangements, lol.

I am in Southern California and I have not heard of Hobby Lobby (maybe it is not in this area yet?) .  I like Michael's but love Joann'e,  out here they are the size of a very large supermarket.  You can find everything there year round for all the holidays, a giant fabric section, lessons and classes on different crafts, you name it they carry it.  Plus you can get coupons weekly from the paper or on-line.   They are also on line. They are fabulous!

We don't have a Hobby Lobby where I live, so by default it's Michael's.

Michaels!!!  I always get my craft needs from there.  It is just so organized and the workers are so helpful/friendly, nowhere else can compare.  :thumbsup:

I would have to vote for hobby lobby since they have a greater variety of merchandise for my hobby.

I love them both, but give me Hobby Lobby.

Post by: Lindaroof on May 03, 2012, 12:53:05 pm

I am close to a Hobby Lobby, it is only 3 minutes from my home, so I make more trips there than to Michaels, but I do love Michaels too.

Title: Re: Michaels or Hobby Lobby?
Post by: vickysue on May 03, 2012, 02:06:40 pm

I like them both, but since we do not havve Michaels any where near us i go to Hobby Lobby and it is 80 miles away. We go once a month to Walmart for shopping and or drs. appt. That is the only drawback to living in a rural area is the shopping. So when we go we just make a day of it.also have to make a list or i can spend a lot of money on items on the off chance i might need it or alreay have it.

I've only been to Hobby Lobby once, it's a bit of a drive. Michael's is a lot closer. But they both have great selections. There's another store around here, Joanns, that's great for all things fabric.

Post by: southernhorizons on May 04, 2012, 08:54:10 am

I don't really like either, although I do visit both occasionally, when I need something. My favorite craft store ever was AC Moore, none of the other ones can even begin to compare, for prices or selection. Why do the best stores always go out of business?

Title: Re: Michaels or Hobby Lobby?
Post by: jkhanson on May 04, 2012, 10:21:44 am

I like both of them, but tend to visit Hobby Lobby more often.
