Well let's be fair. Speaking as someone with no stake in Hobby Lobby but who is familiar with it-
Not everything you can buy there is wasteful. As a student I regularly went there to buy supplies to make projects and I can see for people with certain hobbies that involve making things it's a store like any other. I lived in a small city without a lot of places to buy things like foam board, etc.
Now to be certain the middle of the store, probably over 50% of the square footage, is awash with great quantities of truly weird crap. It's amusing to see what kind of bizarre things they have sometimes.
Even then not all of it is useless, if you have a particular need for storage that doesn't look like storage there are useful things sometimes, and they have niche products like shadow boxes and display cases for things, etc. If you were into drawing, painting, sewing etc., well your pencils/pastels/paint/needles etc. have got to come from somewhere.
That said, I've spent less than $75 there in my whole life and that was in middle/early high school when teachers go through that stupid phase where you must build and illustrate things. I did get the frame for my diploma there when when the frame was 75% off. <shrug> There's probably a more frugal alternative, but the campus book store would mount it on a piece of wood for $75, and this looks very similar and I paid $9. I'm sure someone here will ream me for paying nine bucks when you could probably make one for less than five if you had a router and a few other tools that cost a couple grand when it's all said and done. Good 'nuff for me though.
