Do you prefer Hobby Lobby or Michael's?
« on: May 03, 2015, 12:20:28 pm »
I think I like Michael's best, as I seem to find better deals there.

I prefer Hobby Lobby. I never seem to find what I am looking for at Micheal's.

I love Hobby Lobby.  I wish they were open on Sunday.

I guess Michael's, since I have never been in a Hobby Lobby, but willing to try if I can locate one in my area.

I don't know it has been a long time since I have been to either.

I like both stores but I definitely prefer Michael's. From my experiences they have always been more organized and usually always have what I am looking for.

Hobby Lobby.  Both are expensive.  The last time I went in a Michael's they did not have anything I wanted to buy and it was too expensive for what it was.  The closest one to me was an hour or more away and I am pretty sure it closed so I don't guess I have a choice in where I go now. lol

I like both.  Sometimes there are items you would find items in one that the other doesn't have.  Comparison shopping is great.

I tend to go to either hobby Lobby or JoAnn's just because they are very close to my house whereas Michael's is at the very opposite end of town. And I can usually find what I want at either of the others. Hobby Lobby tends to be the cheapest, but that also includes their products; a friend of mine had to return some baking material from HL because it wasn't good when she brought it home, and instead had to buy a complimentary item by Wilton that was sold at JoAnn's. Also HL doesn't have barcoded price tags meaning that the cashier has to not only type in the cost of every item, but also take off anything if that item was on sale making the checkout process a lot slower and more prone to errors (esp. in forgetting to take off a discount).

I don't have a Hobby Lobby near me.  Just Michaels.

I haven't been in a Michaels in years and I sure do like Hobby Lobby.  When our youngest daughter got married we bought a whole bunch of stuff at Hobby Lobby for the wedding and if we bought it on the right weekend, the price was amazing.

Michaels has always been pretty good and had what I wanted. A new Hobby Lobby just opened not far from me. I may just check it out to see what they have.

Everyone is right about both being expensive.
