Academy Sports + Outdoors

I've always had higher expectations for Academy Sports. The store is brightly lit, clean and laid out the same no matter where you are shopping. I went on line to see if they carried the product I was looking to purchase before going into the store. I have heart failure so I have to shop where there are ecv's available. I think this site had only one and I was fortunate to snag it. The problem is they didn't have the product I was looking for. I will say I'm a gun enthusiast and they have great prices on ammunition. So if that is your thing they gave a great selection of different caliber in the shelf. I left empty handed but had to endure the checkout line maze. You have to go by shelves of impulse buying items in a maze of aisles that are designed to tire even me on the ecv. If they didn't have the ecv I would not be able to shop there. Maybe next time they will have what I need.

I ordered five Stanley cups for my family for Christmas. One of the Stanley cups came from a warehouse which the cup was fine. It had bubble wrap wrapped around it and it was definitely packaged correctly now for the other 4 cups, which came from the store they didn’t put any bubble wrap for the 4 cups. They didn’t even have any type of plastic around the cups. I received four damaged Stanley cups in one giant box this morning so now I have to go out my way to return all 5 cups because they were not packaged correctly. I received my box with holes as soon as I pick the box up I could tell that it wasn’t any type of wrapping around it to secure the cups from hitting one another. One of the cups are chipped so bad that the metal is showing. For the amount of money that I spent, I would hope that they learn how to package items better. I am very disappointed..
