MindCraft Makerspace

*Update: I was not at the store at that exact moment, however the other two people present have different accounts. I never stated that the child opened the candy- you stated that. A receipt email was sent to the email address given. If you did not receive it please send the correct email to us and we will resend the receipt. Stanley will be informed of the situation immediately. Thank you for shopping with us and again, sorry you had a bad experience and misunderstood the situation. You are welcome to return any items that are still in new condition for a refund.
Bottomline is, we are not racist, and we do not condone discrimination of ANY kind.
Original comment: I am very sad to see this comment, as it is not true. My employee asked one of your children not to open a candy until they bought it, and you told her that she was profiling the child and being racist.
Well, let me be very straight: this is a minority woman owned business (a Latina that is- Me) and my employees come from many different backgrounds and from mixed families, and if they were racist they would not even work for me, and they would not have been able to keep a job here.
Since you are a "local guide" you should know that it is customary (at any business) to buy items before you open them. We understand that you were outnumbered and that it is hard to keep 4 children under your supervision at all times while you are shopping, but the rules apply to everyone. We are a small business, and we appreciate the support of our customers, but even though we are a Toy Store- we are not a Playground and we need to make sure that our merchandise is sealable. Unfortunately, we get many people (adults and children alike) that break things, spill their drinks, steal and open items, and part of my employees job is to make sure that things are taken care of and stay in order.
We work really hard every day and we have a great amount of repeat customers. Sorry you had a difficult time and a bad experience, but please refrain from assuming who we are and from making false accusations.

It saddens me to see this comment, apart from the fact that it is not true. My employee asked one of her children not to open a piece of candy (gum) until she bought it, and you told her she was being racist.
Well, let me inform you that the owner of this business (Me) is Latina and that my employees are of different races and from mixed families and if they were racist they would not work for me, and I would not have them working for me.
Since you are a "local guide", you should know that in any business you must buy something before opening it. We understand that you came with 4 children and that it is difficult to keep them supervised at all times while you are shopping but the rules apply to everyone who comes.
We are a small business and we are very grateful for our customers, but we are a toy store and not a playground, and we must keep the merchandise in order.
Unfortunately, some people come and break, open, and even spill liquids on our merchandise, and part of my employees' responsibility is to keep the store in order and the merchandise in new condition.
We work hard every day and we have many clients who come all the time.
I'm sorry you had a bad experience. But please don't jump to conclusions and make false comments.
