“Today I had the best retail customer service experience! I needed two matching chairs for my office, but the store only had one in stock, and it had a bit of dirt on it. Kira went above and beyond—she not only cleaned it up, but she also gave me a markdown and called other HomeGoods stores within a 20-mile radius to track down the pair. I've been to this store before, but now I'm definitely coming back and bringing some friends with me. Kira needs a raise!”
“I generally like this Marshalls, but I did have one frustrating experience early on. When I first tried to apply for a Marshalls credit card, I was told that PhD students at CU Boulder “can’t be approved” and that it was impossible. However, I later applied and was approved anyway. What bothered me most was that the staff member I spoke with was very confident about the “no” and there was no apology or acknowledgement afterward. It wasn’t a great first impression. That said, aside from that incident, this store is a really solid Marshalls. If you’re shopping beyond clothing, I’ve had especially good luck with bags, shoes, skincare, and kitchen items. Some kitchen basics—like utensils, seasonings, dish soap, and other household supplies—can actually be cheaper than the supermarket while still being good quality. One small tip: there are a lot of stylish items, but some non-ceramic products can feel a bit fragile (depending on the brand). I’ve found that hard goods like ceramics tend to be a safer buy, while softer items are worth checking carefully before purchasing. Overall, a great spot for deals—especially for home/kitchen finds.”
“I’ve rented an office from Palmos for a year, and it’s been a genuinely positive experience. The staff have been consistently responsive, flexible, and kind in a way that really stands out. I’m truly grateful and I’d recommend them without hesitation.”
“Very friendly and accommodating staff that helped me out with opening the locked display cases and waited patiently while I tried everything on. I do miss shopping at Nordstrom rack cos you really can find good deals for brand name items.”
“I have owned my Kelty Circuit 3 for over a year now, and it instantly became my favorite tent I've ever had. I love the panoramic night time views and am impressed by the quality and craftsmanship. Last week I noticed a broken pole and was devastated. I called to ask about a replacement pole and learned it was covered by a lifetime warranty!!! What an amazing company, I will forever be a Kelty consumer and have already told all my friends. Thank you so much!!Ps. Save your receipts”
“This place has THE BEST Star bucks out of anywhere, 3 different states I have lived in and my drinks are never done this well. I go out of my way another 10 minutes to come to this star bucks because it's consistently amazing. This location should coach all other star bucks on how to do their drinks”
“Went to get prescription at the cvs inside and did a little shopping after, they were out of a couple things, but it was later in the day, so can't blame them”
