For those of you who wish to go to an arts and craft store for ART supplies, Michael's is the place to go. Unlike ACMoores which claims to have both, it is almost all crafts and their art section for pencils, paper, sketchbooks, paints is pathetic missing crucial items artists may need such as portfolios to store and transport art, plastic sleeves to store art, varieties of pencils, charcoals, paints, etc. \r

Plus Michael's store is just set up better, it is less crowded than ACMoores, with a larger store, higher ceilings, nice wide aisles and the employees are just plain more friendly. If they see you looking around puzzled like I was when trying to look for scrapbook items, one was there quick to help me. \r

And of course their sales...I've found much better deals and discounts through Michael's especially on ALL the different types of items from frames to silk flowers (and their flower section is much more impressive). Plus, they accept competitor coupons which makes it a win win
