My Grandma used to send me to Mike's Cards every month. I would buy at least 5 cards every time. Anyway, the last time I went I asked the woman working there for some help finding a card. She looked at me with absolute disgust and pointed where the card was without saying a word. Her attitude towards a loyal customer was appalling. I have never been since.

Went here on the December 28th. There was nobody around so I looked around the books before being approached by a woman asking what the matter was! I said nothing was the matter. She said I looked lost! When buying a book she told me I had an attitude . I ignored her and told my wife she was being rude to me. She then shouted at me and told me to shut up! I will never go here again. They have lost a good customer
