“I visited the Michaels store in Whitby last week, and the customer service was absolutely excellent. A staff member who was stocking the aisles kindly helped me find what I needed, and at checkout, the cashier asked if I was able to find everything — something I don’t often hear these days.
A couple of days later, I realized I had lost my gold chain while running errands. It means a lot to me — it’s a symbol of my wedding. I retraced all the stores I had visited and finally came back here. To my surprise and relief, the cashier recognized me and told me they had found my chain! ? I couldn’t hold back my tears.
I was overwhelmed with gratitude and emotion, and in that moment, I forgot to ask her name. She truly felt like a motherly presence — kind, caring, and so genuine. I can’t thank her enough for her honesty and compassion. Michaels Whitby has truly outstanding customer service and team members who go above and beyond. ?”
“Awesome little shop went by the other day in to take advantage of a sale at the store. The owner was extremely friendly and was very accommodating with my trade in. I will be back again.”
“Ordered online for pickup a few times. It is such a simple process. The website is well set up and organized making searching for cards a breeze! I enjoy browsing their great selection. Card conditions are very accurate and they will contact you to let you know of any condition changes before finishing order for you which i appreciate. Staff have all been friendly and the store has a great variety of things!”
“Anytime I've been here, it's been a good experience. Staff is helpful whenever they are around (sorry to the worker today who thought I fell when I was just looking for something I accidentally kicked under a shelf ? and thanks for helping me reteieve it). I hardly make returns but the one recently went smooth. Also love the self checkout system there, it's much faster for me and less anxiety inducing than a cashier (even though they're all nice!). Lots of clearance and sales items it's hard to leave with just the items I came for.”
“Very professional and helpful place. Goes without saying that the people who work here knows what photography is and can appreciate your asks. Each and everyone who work here has a wealth of knowledge on photography which is why they are here. I travel 10 KM for all my photo and camera related needs to this store, even when I have many near my house. That is how much I trust this place.”
“Open spacious store with lots of variety! Always enjoy seeing all the creative things to do.
Remember that mating creative, positive things helps to rewire your brain away from all the negative everyday stuff. Try it out!
Just make sure to confirm a sale price is correct, because it may have been moved into the wrong section.”
“Love coming to this place, but it’s 2025 and no WIFI???? There’s zero reception in the building. Come one you can get WIFI while flying now and on the TTC but not in a local bingo hall???”
“Today, I went to the Custom Framing section and received outstanding service from Lilli. The associate is very knowledgeable and very patient. She gave me many options and I would definitely recommend Michael’s for custom framing.”
“Since opening on Thickson rd, Dailey’s has been the “ go to “ hobby store. Randy makes it hard to walk out with only 1 or 2 kits because of the selection. For us old guys who like to browse, give yourself some time. Everything you need in one stop shop
A large thank you to Randy & staff !”
