I love all my LQS's.
Most of the people working at all 4 shops know my name. I am greeted by smiles every time. The owner of the shop closest to me likes to give me a hug (he's in his late 70's) I have had some medical issues lately and they all ask how I am doing or notice if I am limping more or if I happen to look like I am not feeling well, they will ask how it's going.
They are happy to see me coming. I spend way too much on fabrics at all the shops. I like to talk to the owners and ladies (and men) working there, asking their opinions, I ask they how they are doing and will visit with them if we both have time.
The one closest has a sale going on at least every 6 weeks where all quilting fabrics will be on sale 25-33% off. There is always fabrics on the sale table, different ones are added all the time. When I need help finding a certain fabric they are quick to help me search for it. They have ordered bots of certain fabrics for my friends.
I enjoy shopping in all these stores!!!
