I have to credit a girlfriend for bringing this store back to mind.
When Marshalls left my area years ago I followed to AZ Mills. While it's likely to have changed by now, the Mills store was a disaster area! I like bargains as much as the next person, but picking through a trash heap is not something I'm willing to do.
This store in San Tan (I think) is very clean and well organized. Great for finding "staples" and out of season clothing. Sweater and jacket found!
The cashiers are very nice and although I was next in line, the manager came over to say they would be with me in a moment. It was a very nice gesture, yet made me wonder what I was doing that prompted his comment. I didn't feel agitated - no dancing, no low rumble, no baring of teeth!
Could it be he actually cares about his customer's experience? Yes! And for that reason I will return.
