    As someone who has worked at Hobby Lobby here are my tips:
    1) if it's not on sale one week, come back the next week and 9 times out of 10 it'll be on sale.
    2) nothing is scanned, everything is manually typed in so pay attention and give your cashier a friendly reminder if they miss something that's on sale that week. Trust me, there's a lot to try and remember when you're typing stuff in.
    3) seasonal stuff will continue to be reduced up until the holiday and then even more afterwards. But once it's gone it's gone. So if you really love something don't wait too long.

    1. Christmas goes on sale in like September.
    2. Wedding rentals no longer exist.
    3. The red tag items still in their home location are just because the department hasn't been reset with new merchandise yet.
    4. The sale rotation is every other week for the whole store. If it goes on sale, it goes on sale every other week. Bonus: sale is not the same as markdowns.
    5. Mini means mini. Why would you expect mini to be full size?
    6. There is no coupon.
    7. To get the school/church discount, the organization must pay directly. So you have to pay with a school or church check or card.

Also idk about the other stores but the ones near me mark down the prices lower than the printed price on the product. Not an orange reduction tag but a regular price tag. They also take the sales on that price tag and not the price printed on the product.

    I love a deal as much as the next guy but let’s also remember that we need to support our local ‘brick and mortar’ stores instead of amazon-like sites if you’re like me and enjoy browsing in an actual store. I’d like to continue to have an actual store to walk into and browse in and if we don’t support our local stores they will go away. Also remember that places such as HL employ your neighbors that have life expenses so shopping at your local stores also support your local community as a whole.

    @burny7216 2 роки тому +3

    Up to date tips from an employee:
    1. The sales are on a bi-weekly rotation. Take a screenshot/flyer of a Wall Decor and then a Table Decor week, and you have all the sales for all basic departments. Jewelry is the only department basic department with non biweekly sales.
    2. Seasonal sales start at 40% almost by default. The week of (early November for Christmas) it goes to 50%. The day after, it goes 66%, 75%, 90%.
    3. February through August is reset season. Every month, a few departments are picked for a reset, and many SKUs will be marked as deleted, marked with an orange sticker, and moved to clearance.
    4. The 40% off coupon was discontinued company-wide in March 2021. Any coupon code you see on a third party website is fake, or an expired code.
    5. The price adjustment tip in the video is true. If you buy table decor one week, and the next week you notice it's on sale now, you 100% can come into the store and do a price adjustment. Bring the receipt or card used for the purchase.
    6. In seasonal, when you see something you like, get it. A SKU will usually only arrive in bulk at one time, and it will not be sent to the store again. It's very likely that if you wait 2 weeks, it may be gone, especially closer to the holiday.
    7. Do your Christmas shopping in the first two weeks of November when Christmas goes 50% off. The most amount of product will be on the shelf, and you'll get the 50%.

I'd been to Joann's prior - there was never an associate available to help me, they were rude etc. Then when I was in Hobby Lobby to look at their fabric I had the best experience. The associate was VERY helpful and friendly, did all the math for me for how much I was going to need for my project (without me even asking her to). Now when I need fabric I go to Hobby Lobby first.

      That is literally the opposite of any Hobby Lobby store I've ever been in. Not only do they have about 1/4 Of the amount of fabric as JoAnns, but there is never anyone working in that department. There is a bell you can ring, but if anyone does show up it will be at least 10 minutes of waiting for them. And then they are so irritated that they had to come over to help you that they don't cut the fabric correctly and you end up with lengths that are several inches shorter at the end than it is in the middle. Never again. I am finished with fabric shopping at Hobby Lobby. Only JoAnns from here on.

    I work for Hobby Lobby at store 190, and yes. That is how we do discounts. And I just looked up about that lawsuit, and that was back in 2017, which we won agsinst. So that lawsuit that is supposedly happening is false. Its perfectly fine due to the fact that you get a 30% chunk taken off of the original price is fine.

    For fabriholics: HL fabrics seem to be 30% off every other week. However, be aware that they have clearance bins with holiday and dc'd textiles at significantly reduced prices. I scored a "Valentines Day" print, which was a red and pink floral, not really Valentines Day themed, for 80 cents a yard. ALSO, after these fabrics are cut at the counter, they do not always get placed back in the clearance section. but in the regular fabrics section. So do a walkthrough looking for the red clearance stickers on the full price shelves.

      As for the price adjustments, you need to bring in everything you bought from that receipt, back into the store, with the way our receipts work.
      So do seperate transactions with things that wont need price adjusted, with the things that will need price adjusted

    • @tylerchris7293
      @tylerchris7293 2 роки тому +2

      If you work at a HL and your CSM is telling you that they don’t price match its because it’s complicated and they just are probably not trying to deal with it. HL WILL price match but only for an advertised sale price for the exact same item. Not a everyday non sale price and not for a percentage off. I.e. Walmart has a advertised sale for a cricut explore air 3 for 149.99 will be matched. A 50% off all cricut products sale will not be matched.

    I already figured out the schedule at my local Hobby Lobby. As an avid yarn lover I found that every other week the yarn was 30% off, and that includes all the yarn. I almost never shop for yarn any other week, unless it's during their annual super clearance.

      I like the mini tongs, great for picking up pickles, olives, small veggies, etc on relish trays! Yes many of those minis are really small but they have their uses if you think outside the box!

    Thank you for all your tips. I find amazing deals and share with others. However I was notified yesterday they canceled the 40% coupon. Upsetting as it is. I still shop there and watch videos like yours. Thank you again.

    Michaels and JoAnn’s are way more expensive than Hobby Lobby 😂
    Jewelry is on an A/B schedule as well as majority of their items that go on sale. Like fabric, ribbon, floral, stickers etc. just about everything that goes on sale.

      Yeah I was going to ask about the paper rafting and fine arts stuff schedule. I NEVER buy unless it’s on “ sale”.
      I’m really disappointed in Michael’s and have stopped shopping there. They have devoted their paper crafting area to the electronic cutting machines, Cricut, and almost stopped selling dies, stamps, embossing folders, and Tim Holtz and some of their big name designers items.
      And my local Joanne’s is just pathetic, I’m not sure why they even keep anything but the sewing and fabric section open! There is hardly anything in the rest of the store.
      I end up ordering on,one if there’s a decent sale.
      So if I need an item, I order it from somewhere online..... It’s sad the local stores are doing this...

      @@teresahiggs4896 JoAnn’s has really gone down hill! It’s a joke and the coupons are awesome now. Most of their stuff is stupid expensive too. It’s been a month or two since I’ve gone it. I started going to Michaels more recently but they are so expensive if it’s not on sale. Amazon is starting to get a lot of crafting supplies and are priced really good too.
      As for HL paper crafting I believe it’s next week. It wasn’t online when I went yesterday but was on sale last Saturday when I went. In the app you can check the add. Fine art, I’m not sure as I don’t really buy any fine art supplies. I have noticed prices dropping at Hobby Lobby. I’ve bought items with no price tags (not the red Clarence stickers) with a lower price sticker on top of the original.

    I don't know if you have ever done a video on deals at Best Buy, but that might be interesting. It seems pretty expensive to what I can find online but I imagine there are some tricks to shopping there that I don't know about

      Price match with Best Buy. They almost use everyone. Its also usually in stock because not many people know to price match. So if you see a camera go on sale at Walmart/ Amazon regular $300 down to $100 and Best Buy it’s $350, if you show them proof they will take it to $100. Deals like that usually go extremely fast at Walmart/ Amazon/ Target etc so Best Buy is my go to.
