I asked a store associate for the restroom after shopping for a few minutes. She directed me to Kim, another associate. She then directed me to Starbucks, where I of course had to purchase a drink to use their restroom. Nonsense. Seems like sheer laziness on the staff's part or poor communication amongst the team. Regardless, won't be going back.

Worst shopping experience of my life, seriously would give 0 stars if possible. Please read before shopping here: Came in with my fiance to get some gifts and as my fiance is shopping and putting things in her basket, I hear the employees say, follow him, he’s stealing and suspicious (AS I AM JUST LOOKING AT ENGAGEMENT GIFTS!) anyways, when I hear this, I tell my fiance to empty her basket since we would not be spending our money here. As we leave I say “just so you know, I’m allowed to look around without being made to feel like I’m stealing” and we left. As we’re leaving they start apologizing and asking us to come back and shop, yeah right. They started saying that “normal people steal too” whatever that means. Just prepared to be profiled and made to feel like an awful person for simply being in their store. I’m disgusted and won’t spend another penny at a paper store again.

Bought the large ceramic Xmas tree and star was missing. Trying to call customer service and no one answers. Tried in store and they said I had to go to another store. I suppose I can just return it but it's a pain. Just wanted someone to send me the star. Guess it's no one's job.

This is the 2nd time in two weeks I've been to the Reading store and both times an older woman (possibly the manager) was rude. Corporate would be wise to re-train this woman in effective customer service. Needless to say, I'll be shopping at the Paper Store in nearby Lynnfield. And if anyone is rude there, I'll assume this poor customer service is sanctioned by Corporate.

I was in the Reading store earlier today and was planning on purchasing a few items. When I got to the register, I requested a box. I was told by a sales associate that she would have to charge me a dollar for the box. I was shocked! I told her I thought it was ridiculous. I asked the sales associate if she would override the box fee, especially for the amount of money I was spending. She said she could not, that the fee came directly from corporate. I then said, I am sure your manager has the authority to override the fee. The manager was standing there, she turned her back to me. I left the merchandise on the counter and left. I guess they don't need or want my business. They lost the profit on my purchase over the box fee. Just a suggestion for management, perhaps you should post signs throughout the store stating the box fee. This would avoid what I went through. It would allow your customers to make a decision as to whether they want to purchase from the Paper Store or go to a store with better customer service. Needless to say, I will never go back to that store! L.A.

I would have given 4 stars but this one employee working, I believe her name was Patricia? I overheard the way she was talking to her employees and I did not like that at all. I myself am a manger at a company and I would never talk to any of my em that way.

I was a bit surprised to find clothing in a paper store! I did buy a few cards, but nothing else interested me.
