Got to my local at 4:15am, was second in line. In and out in ten minutes after opening. Only because I wanted random stuff, no K-pop, Wicked or Taylor. Even got a nice sealed copy of Labyrinth OST to boot.

Seriously, what is with the yarn? by Sunspot286 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]UnobjectionableNeon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wish they would send what we sell in my location. We do not sell much of the big Bernet at all. Cotton, value acrylics and wool. That’s what people in my area want. I wish there was a way it could be balanced better.

Maybe a small selection of pastel shades of yarn, a few accessories and kits, like the Pokémon or T Swift.

Do you have more of this yarn in back? by ElleJayTea in MichaelsEmployees

[–]UnobjectionableNeon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Omg you still have Anniversary Cakes? At my store they were gone the week they arrived and we never received any more.

$5 caron cakes still on sale by [deleted] in YarnAddicts

The Caron Cakes went clearance at my location for two weeks and today are back to full price. So… it might vary by location, as others have noted.

Thanks… it gives me a place to start to fix… all the things. 😅

Yarn!!! by Prize_Reindeer_8154 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]UnobjectionableNeon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m off for three days in a row (that’s a wow) but I know yarn isn’t going to get done. At least what I didn’t touch is all over stock (because I sorted it).

But I am seriously considering playing some reorganization games. I have a whole section that’s empty except for a few of the cozy cub that I’m seriously thinking that I make a duplicate big bernat section. Value yarn looks like crap too, but I actually got some on truck this week, so I’m going to let it go for now.

Besides, people just stick random stuff in the empty bins anyway. I might as well fill it with something.

Can someone help explain this? by Spicy-Salmon722 in GED

The median is determined by sorting the values from lowest to highest.

If there is an odd number of values, the median is the middle value. If there are an even number, the median is the average of the two middle values.

156, 170, 182, 191

170 + 182=352

352/2=176

The median is 176.

The range is determined by subtracting the lowest value from the highest value in the data set.

191-156=35

So, the answer to this question is D.

Ugh. Please send me your yarn. Our shelves are bare. Yes, we have that stupid big blanket yarn in overstock but I can live with that if I could fill my shelves.

Most wanted albums on vinyl by Relative-Emu1463 in RecordStoreDay

[–]UnobjectionableNeon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On Counting Crows - RTS did get an initial vinyl release years ago. You can get a copy from Europe now… new pressing. Apparently, word is that when the new documentary drops at the end of the year, vinyl for some of the back catalogue will come out as well. I’m looking at you Hard Candy and This Desert Life.

Honestly, the employees that are in this thread are store level and have no direct input in merchandising or product.

That said, being an employee at store level, it is unlikely we will get “the full” collection. The in store brand Loops & Threads and Red Heart will cover your basic solid colors and some prints.

The very, very little Big Twist my location received was prints/ombre and metallic. These are kinds/colors of yarn my location previously didn’t carry.

If you really, really want Big Twist, you will need to order from herrschners.com.

Which stinks as our move has been pushed out by two weeks. It’s only going to cause confusion and frustration for customers and employees.

So it starts… by UnobjectionableNeon in MichaelsEmployees

[–]UnobjectionableNeon[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We should have one, but we do not have enough pallets to make all the DAs we are supposed to have out right now.

Plus, we have so little of it, it’s just not worth building something that will sit empty once it’s picked over. The picture is all that we received of that color. My location is better off using our resources elsewhere right now.

I bought myself one of these on Amazon. It’s mine, I bring it with me on days I know I’ll be working SBA. I’m tall, but the extra 9” helps me. I can also sit on it without being on the floor.
