You can’t buy Made in America in Walmart either, they support China. Who cares what Hobby Lobby believes in or who care what products Walmart buys from, just don’t shop there. The question was, where is Hobby Lobby going to be built at! Personally I don’t care what there beliefs are.

Dam, I’m disappointed. I decided to check out this thread because I thought Hobby Lobby might be the name of a new Executive golf course only to learn it’s a friggin crafts store : (

Yea, you can buy very little made in America at Walmart but you have to look REAL hard to find made in America. Walton’s Walmart is known to sell & buy products made in China. Go into Walmart & pickup 10 things & I bet they’ll all say made in China. If you find 1 of the 10 things that says made & produced in America you ought to get a metal for it. Walmart is known for selling for Communist China! Yea, I buy some stuff at Walmart!

Most of the food I buy at Walmart does not come from China. In fact, not even the frozen Chinese food was made in China! Sad!

The Chinese Food the Chinese will eat in China is very different than the Chinese food we eat here. It has been Americanized.

Chinese associates of mine have been to Chinese restaurants with me and while they like the food they all agree it is very different.

And now back to the regularly scheduled topic of where will we find Hobby Lobby here.:bigbow::bigbow:

You can drop someone at Hobby Lobby and go down the street to the driving range.

Oh.....but it's much more than just a craft store.

There certainly are plenty of jobs out there.

I honestly don't care what they do, just that their store blows Michael's and Jo Ann's out of the water. Seriously....Hobby Lobby is a cross between those two stores, Marshall's Home Goods and the Party Store.

JUST AWESOME in every way!!!!!!! I'm so glad to hear they are coming to heart of The Villages on 466.

Hobby Lobby is a great store. I would prefer to shop there over Michael's or JoAnn. They have products for all seasons and holidays. Isn't it remarkable that people who don't shop there would know what they sell or don't sell?

I love how women get in a panic and think that an employer should be forced to pay for abortion pills no matter their philosophy or beliefs. Or who believe that men get treated like kings with benefits while women don't get treated like queens. Or that a part-time employee would expect to get full-time benefits or pay. Or that insurance should be paid by the employer instead of the employee, especially for a part-time employee. Or that people who have never purchased antiquities would know how it is done.

I'll guarantee you that everyone of the people here and anywhere else that gripe about Hobby Lobby knew the facts and truths about all of the owners of the companies from whom they buy their goods, they'd have to refrain from buying about anything from any company. Maybe some things don't count - like business owners who cheat on their spouse (that's okay, right), how about those who cheat on their taxes (another big one), what about those who have affairs with their subordinates (kind of goes with cheating on their spouse), what about the ones who force their employees to work without breaks of any kind during an 8+ hour shift. I can continue. I guess all of those things are okay - just as long as they get that abortion pill.

I wish I had the time to look up and investigate everyone's favorite place to shop (for anything), favorite place to eat, favorite place to go for entertainment, etc. just to show them how imperfect everyone is, how many skeletons they have in their closets, how many skeletons those people who complain about businesses like Hobby Lobby and Chick-Fil-A have, but alas, I don't. Now if you pay me a reasonable salary, provide me with top-of-the-line health insurance, fund a 401K for me, and only require that I work 10-20 hours per week up to the time I make $17,000 a year, I'll do i5. We'll see how much people truly appreciate all of those favorite businesses of theirs!

Yea, but wether or not you believe it but some Green Giant & Del monte vegetables are grown there which are fertilized in human feces then shipped to America to be processed. Bet not many knew that, huh. Green Giant & Del Monte doesn’t sound Chinese does it!

OhioBuckeye 03-28-2022 08:25 AM

I never said that Walmart sells 100% Chinese products. Everyone try’s to turn everyone’s comments around. I was surprised to see that some people answered a question about Products sold at Walmart when I knew it was about a question about Hobby Lobby.
