I would have been thrown too! I really hope your future experiences going into the season are much morre pleasant. Thank you for your awesome Halloween content:-)

I see a lot of videos where people act goofy about filming. If the store manager had any brains at all, they would realize these videos from you, Jade the Libra, and others like you prompt people to seek out these products and buy them. These videos give us a glimpse of what is available in their stores. It’s not causing any harm.Keep on, Cris!

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it!!!

Sorry that Michael’s manager was so closed minded. I have bought items after you featured them in your videos. Keep up the great job!

It might be a good idea to ask managers if they mind you filming, explain you don’t want anything, other than to share the autumnal/Halloween joy.

I don't know what that employee at that Michael's location was thinking? Different KZreadrs have been filming in Michael's and other stores for years. It let's people like me know what's out. So I will know if it is worth it to travel to a store. Omg all the lighting! I love festive lighting! So glad you made it out to that a different location.

You can hold up your phone and if they ask you say you are getting advice on decorations from Tampa Jay 😊😊😊😊👻👻👻👻👻most places have recording policies I've always done it carefully

Yeah my experience with chain stores is it depends on who's running the store. I have met some lovely Managers at various stores but also my share of rude Jackasses too. You handled it beautifully & with grace Cris.

Can’t wait to hear what Michael’s corporate office comes back to you with!

We love your spooky shopping videos! Keep up the good work! Honestly, if that manager had pulled up your channel while you were talking to him, you would have gotten a “thank you for the free advertising!” 🧡🧡🧡

Awesome video thanks for sharing everything very helpful and such cute finds. 👻🎃🔮🧟

Cris - your enthusiasm for all the products in the stores is what makes these videos so enjoyable to watch - happy shopping!

Please show your Halloween decorations in your house, could you show them while you decorate too? it would be really cool. Kisses from Brazil! 🇧🇷🖤👻🎃

I'm not saying I agree with them. But, honestly most stores do have rules, and policies against filming. Target, and Walmart most notably. It's usually for protection. Mostly against competitors knowing stock, pricing, sales and deals. Most people don't know or realize because posting on KZread, TikTok, and other social media, has become so normalized in the last decade and and a bit. Most everyone has a camera in their pockets. And so many people post all aspects of daily life, and happenings all day long. I think a lot of employees don't care enough or have the time or energy to enforce it. I love watching store walk-thrus. Love to see what's out there. And it's fun to see what other people get! I have seen a few people that I watch get scolded, and or kicked out for filming in different grocery chains, and also Target. Probably because competitors are known to secret shop and see what their up against. It can be easy to be discrete though! Using a phone (back camera) and pretending to talk to someone, rather than talk like you're presenting something, and not moving the phone in a way that it's obvious that you're filming.

Michael's have really stepped up their spooky vibes this year

Cris, Tysvm for also including the prices. It’s helpful for those of us on a budget like yourself. Love your channel and so glad I found it!!!

Another Halloween Grab. Thanks Cris.

I’m so stinking proud of you babe! I love you ❤️

I have not been to Cracker Barrel in 10 years until I watched your video last Sunday. Didn’t eat there but dropped by and bought Halloween shirt.

HAHAH the ghost lights are things that dreams are made of.

Oh thank you! I've been looking for a branchy tree that doesn't have glitter and i work mon through Friday so I don't like to waste my weekend searching every store for something they might not have! Watching these videos gives me my list of where I need to go

Our family are Halloween peeps.....my husband's aunt Linda was the queen of Halloween! She did catering for spooky parties and dinners and hosted family spooky dinners for us. She's gone now...and we inherited all her cool stuff. We have a Halloween hallway. This displays some of her favorite Halloween things year round. But you can never have enough Halloween!!!!! So we love your videos...letting us know who has what..if nothing else it's free advertising for them. Hope everything works out! Thankyou! 🖤🐈‍⬛Aka Julia

I love the round spooky cat pillow! 😼

I started seeing people showing Michael's stuff but all I could think is I can't wait for you to do it cause I love how you show everything and tell prices. 😊

Just found your channel, really enjoying it 🎃👻 I live in Brandon! Keep up the great work!

You’re promoting their stock …. wow how extraordinary they should take exception to your filming 😮

At 24:20 Oh No! When I hear you say that, my brain flips it to ADD TO CART. 😎❤️

I'm so sorry for what happened at Michael's. My kids and I love you videos! I really appreciate your videos, I deal with a quite a few health issues so I'm unable to shop around, you make it possible to see all the Halloween stuff I love❤🎃🍁 Your amazing keep doing you!

Hey Cris the girl! What's up? Anither sick video as always!!! Really into Haloween and Haloween stuff !!! Thanks for what you do ! That's incredible!!! A huge shoutout to you and Tampa Jay !!!

Bonjour, Je suis désolée d'apprendre votre mésaventure dans ce magasin. Sachez que de France vos vidéos me font rêver :) Merci

Lakeland Michaels has Spooky Town set up and on display!! 👀👀

I worked at a Michaels for 12 years and we used to have influencers come film all the time. I know some were setup through corporate, maybe reaching out there first to make sure they are aware you are coming, but it shouldn't be a problem!

I’m grateful I found your channel because I live in Mexico City and my brother lives in Colorado (Michaels has Mexico banned on their website) and with your help I got the chance to show my brother what I wanted and now he bought for me almost all Spooky Town stuff 🙈

The neon stuff is super cute and I love the talking lights. I was a retail manager and the filming is usually discouraged because the company wants to control the way their store is represented. Even though your intentions are good, they don’t know that for sure. Let’s say you walk into a Michael’s that is dirty or has bare shelves. Or the lines are extremely long and the cashier is rude. Some people who have never entered a Michael’s might think that’s normal. But if you film with your phone you probably won’t attract attention from the manager since they are too busy to watch everyone in their store.

This year I finally caved & bought their Wall Flowers & love them! I got four & the skeleton hand sanitizer holder. Now I’m broke! 😂

I love all of the Halloween lights! Thanks for another spooky shopping video, Cris! 🧡🖤🎃💀👻🧡🖤

Your phone filming was perfect, probably a little better, sound was perfect.

At this point in time, everyone should be educated as to how KZread works and how paid advertising works, especially a manager. Sorry for the hassle. But don't go on about it. We know there are salty people out there. You just ran into one this time. Great video! Thank you for keeping us in the Spooky Loop!

I seen candy corn at JoAnns. A small bag for $7.00.

Great video Cris. Truly appreciate all the content you put out! Sorry to hear what happened at Michaels! :(

Thanks so much for filming these! because of you I was able to snatch those Novogratz ghost pillows I've been waiting 2 years for because they keep selling out! They're already gone on Marshalls and it's only been 3 days

Big fan from El Paso Texas love your amazing videos

Hi from Cristy in NC! I appreciate your hard work and sorry you had this encounter. You all doing these shopping trips are so helpful to Halloween and Fall lovers that can’t get out themselves. I am able to do my own code orange hunting and love to see things ahead of time. Thanks Cris!

I certainly get it, the frustration. I had a very successful utube channel with 100k subs. I tried to vlog several times inside stores and always got kicked out. I finally stopped doing it. It is very frustrating, I loved doing vlogmas for Christmas and it was hard. Most stores will not allow from what I have experienced. I wish you luck.❤

Thank you!! SO MUCH TO LOOK AT!

You could check out Robert's Christmas Wonderland in Clearwater has had a Spooky Town village on display in the past. I'm not sure on their filming policy but it's local and has charm!

I like everything that you showed!!!!! I am going to Michaels. When I go I am telling them that it's because you showed what they had!!!! Thanks Cris I love Halloween just like you. Always have.

You keep the spooky vibes coming , cris !!!! 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

I am so horrified at the way you was treated. Good videos like yours, Tampa Jays, The Deal Guy, and others that show whats in stores. It makes us want to go see whatelse there is in the stores. Or we see stuff we want to run out and buy.. its good for us and for businesses. Its free advertisement for them.. I just am so shocked..I do have a tree this year that I decorate with the holidays. I have started getting my spooky decorations ready now... Stay safe. Much love..

Love the video be safe

Soo many cool finds. I was looking at Michaels online and was underwhelmed. But so many of the things you found in like ok gotta runnnnnnn. I think I’ll be getting a few lights as well. I also love the coffin with the tarot cards. I think I’ll add that to the list for my family boo buckets. Can’t waittttttttt.

I work at Aldi and we were told not to allow filming because something about competitors could be coming in and taking whatever information could be beneficial to them. I don't know all the details behind it but it has something to do with competitors. They should have been more transparent with you about that.

Like "competitors" can't come into the store and see prices for themselves. If they are going to make rules like this, the very least they could do is have a reasoning that involves common sense. Is that really the only "reasoning" management can come up with???

Fun video

$35 DX I need the bat pillow ughh michaels seems to have me the most this year at least in the summer

I hv already saw some things I’m definitely buying, so yes these videos are important to let people know what they offer and prices. 🖤💀🐈‍⬛

Just watched Tampa Jay on the road. Chris try calling corporate at Michael's. Just let them know what happened. See if its a individual manager personal problem. Love your channel watch you and Tampa Jay all the time. Surely they should love the free advertising. Believe me, I use yours and other channels to know where to shop and find what I'm looking for. I'm disabled and can't shop like I want to. Your channel and others helps me know where to order and where to pick up. Keep it up never let one sour apple ruin your day. Best wishes

I’m curious which item you were planning on getting at the first store that they didn’t have at the 2nd?

The Spooky Shopping Chanel is so wonderful. Have a wonderful Spooky Season Cris.

What’s crazy is I was watching you show us all those pillows at michaels and I was thinking omg I have to go to micheals tomorrow and buy that … then they did that …. Now I won’t 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hi !! I know your point about filming, but many stores got free promotion for every single seasonal decor, thanks to you and a bunch of Halloween lovers they increase their sales, after watch videos I run to stores grabbing the items because later is too late, nothing is over there or simple sold out. Thanks a lot for your great job filming for us, just keeping going and I think you can letting to the manager store about filming, so I think you can prevent any incovenience. Have a awesome weekend 😎☠️🦴👻🎃🤠🍮🍮☕

❤ I love ur videos so much, they put a smile on my face, love watching such a beautiful girl

I think you have to rush through filming quietly and then talk about your findings later off property. Seems to me, the companies direct their staff to prevent filming.

I’ve bought the light up coffins before

I suspect if you recorded with your phone that the store manager wouldn't have minded. But a large camera could possibly make him nervous, thinking you might be a professional. What was the item you wanted but couldn't find? Also, was the glass coffin 40% off? I like your videos, Cris, and I found you pretty recently, but they are about as twice as long as I would like. I always watch them on 2x speed. Anyway, thx!

Maybe that store had a security situation or a privacy issue situation wth a customer/s .We are living in a country that anyone can complain about their privacy rights unless you sign a waiver.

Just saying Michael's is going to make me broke. Love it all. I would need another house...lol. Great video. Sorry you got kicked out the other one. Can't wait to hear what they say back at you. Have a great weekend

Hey, where exactly is the first Plaza you want to?

What a jerk to kick you out. My wife and I love watching your Halloween videos. Keep up the good work.

Just a thought: I saw a video awhile back where a show was featured and three men were inadvertently video'd in the background and were angry. The outcome was a hassle for the one filming, in fact it was dangerous. One just doesn't know who's roaming around.

Michaels has the best fall/Halloween supplies. Sorry for the trouble they're given you. I can understand the concern, yet you're definitely not the problem Cris.

I love spooky town

Do you ask permission to film to begin with ? Most people do?

Some of this stuff looks like stuff at the $1 tree.
