I do not normally shop at NM, but when I do it is usually for products that are exclusive to this store or not available in many other places (especially certain cologne). I enjoy every visit to NM. No one is pushy, but instead they are playful, funny, and so accommodating to making sure every experience had in the store is above all expectations.
I am more than positive people spend a couple of thousand dollars at a time, but the day I arrived at NM I spent a few hundred. The reason I point that out is because no matter how much I would have spent that day, I was treated with the most respect and best service. I was given water upon talking to a sales associate. I was given so many samples of colognes with my purchase, and I was walked out of the mens department by the associate and was directed to where I was going in the mall by him. It was such a great experience.
