Has the Green family ever taken a look at their customer base?

All over Facebook, including posting on Hobby's Lobby's page, Twitter, etc. Right. They are making the majority of their customers, who are WOMEN, very, very mad. Taking their business to Michael's, Joanne's, etc.

Rachel, are you listening?

who are there to buy model airplanes. Guess I've got the demographic all wrong.

supplies, etc.

but 95+ of the store is yarn, fabric, home decor, scrapbooking, jewelry making, etc.

Last time I was in one more than half the space in the store was devoted to ugly cheap shoddy dust-collecting knickknacks. The profit margin on those must be higher than on actual hobby supplies.

LOL

Canvas, oil/acrylic/water color paints, brushes all purchased by my daughter at Hobby Lobby until they started this case. Now, Michaels gets all that business.

hobby lobby for yarn and such. I've stopped completely, I now go to Joann's.

A few years back I was a Girl Scout leader and did a lot of our craft shopping there, now I steer others away from them.

I told them that even though driving to Michael's is inconvenient I do it with a smile on my face. I said they probably didn't want my money anyway since I use birth control.

I am on pins & needles.

I assumed it was a store that sold Magic the Gathering cards and table top RPG books and I then I mentally made a note to never buy my RPG books from there. Clearly, I'm not the right demographic since I have no clue what they sell. I just saw the word "hobby" and assumed it meant my hobbies. Strange how that happens.

And my husband is the one who goes there the most and was the one who decided to boycott over this, so it's not just women they're pissing off.

the same items (even the same name brands!) as Hobby Lobby.

What I really miss? The freestanding fabric stores, art supply stores, etc. Syracuse is lucky enough to have a real art supply store down near the university. It's a treat to drop in there.
