If I could give this place 0 stars, I would. When I entered the store with my friend, one of the workers immediately gave us a side eye. She eventually greeted us in an unenthusiastic tone. When we were looking at the candles in the front of the store, we overheard her saying to another worker that she should keep an eye on them. Immediately my friend and I (both of us being people of color) realized that we were being racially profiled. As we moved along the store the worker who was asked to keep an eye on us followed us. Different workers followed us as we moved to various sections of the store. When we finally decided that we had had enough and left, we noticed that the worker who initially gave us a look said good bye to the person who left before us, but gave us a look and did not say anything to us as we left. This was our first time in the store, and I can definitely say that we will not come back after that discriminatory experience. A completely unwelcoming environment.
