| - Uh wow.
How could I have not visited this place sooner?????
First off, it's located right across from the airport. Pretty easy location to get in and out of. Not hard to miss, thankfully....I hate looking for little hole in the wall spots, where I usually end up missing the turn in, and finding a place to make a Uturn, fighting traffic....you get the idea.
This place is HUGE.
As soon as you walk in, it's like.......heaven shines down it's light and makes everything sparkle. HOT DAMN!
My family and I spent an hour in this warehouse. There is such a selection, it blows my mind. The walls are lined and filled with beads... Gemstones, irregular and carved, to Czech sparklers...you name it.
Then, in between, there are tables filled with wire, string, yarn, all that can be sold by the yard. I believe some were .99 cents a yard...make sure that this is what you want...because once it is cut, it has to be bought!!!
This place is the cheapest I have ever seen with 22 gauge wire. $1.99 for a decent sized spool. Wire and like things are not returnable.
The tables are also filled with different packets of beads (30 grams for $2), strings of beads and gemstones that are on sale.... and pendants.
The membership here is around $40-50. I don't remember if the kind woman working said if it was a one time thing, or if it was yearly. She told me that I would have saved around $10 if I was a member today....that's a decent amount of savings, and I'm pretty sure that the next time I go in there (because there will be MULTIPLE next times) I will be purchasing a membership....I think she said you get a credit towards your first purchase as a member as well .
Yes, it is a tad warm in there....but it was not unbearable. It was over 100 when we went this afternoon, and we weren't that uncomfortable.

Okay, so today I became a member. For $45 I got the basic membership, which includes a $30 credit with your first purchase, awesome. Because when you think about it, it's like I got 9 strands of beads and 4 spools of wire for $15.
The VIP membership is the same $45, you do get more % off, but it didn't come with the $30 credit.
It is a yearly fee but, if you want to renew your membership, it's only $15 when it expires.... Holla.
