The Paper Store

One of my new favorite places. Great place to find such a variety of gifts. Was impressed with their new fashions. Most sales staff were very pleasant and helpful though one or two would probably benefit from a bit more training.

This is one great Paper Store.
Don is super helpful, knowledgable, and a great employee in the Millbury Paper Store. He was so helpful finding some specific items, today 12÷12÷15. Checkout went smooth as well, so no issues with the wonderful and plentiful staff (at least 10 – 15 of them all working throughout the store!).
For the actual store, it’s very large (which is a most definite plus), carries a boatload of clothing, candles, jewelry, toys, Hallmark cards, ornaments, trinkets, and SO many gift giving ideas, it’s not even funny. I also feel that this is most likely the most busy store I’ve been in with a constant high rate of customers in the store throughout my visit. Also, make sure to check for coupons! They accept Hallmark coupons on anything Hallmark and also have some of their own coupons (once in a while). Definitely stop here if you’re at the Shoppes @ Blackstone Valley, it’s the only real gift store throughout the mega-​complex, and is bound to have something for a family member, friend, co-​worker, or other acquaintance. 5 stars.

The paper store has an abundance of gifts for anyone. I typically go for the Hallmark card and gift wrap selection. This time I went to pick up a birthday gift before meeting my family for dinner (I know, super last minute). After looking at the clothing, Vera Bradley, and Yankee Candle selection I meandered over to the Alex + Ani. There were two unenthused girls standing at the counter. I picked a November birthstone bangle. I asked the girl for some guidance on another bangle to go with it. She didn’t even attempt to help me pick an item. She pointed me in the direction of «new» bracelets and continued to chat with her coworker. After giving up, I took my one bracelet, card, and gift wrap to the counter. An equally unenthused cashier rang me out. I don’t know what it is, but the staff here were all less than helpful and not even remotely engaging with customers. I’d rather take my business to another store that cares enough to acknowledge and assist me.
