It's here...at last?

There's been a ton of hype around The Container Store opening in Bellevue. I haven't yet had a chance to go check it out. I know this is mean to say about your regionally based businesses, but I hope the intensified competition from The Container Stores gives Storables some incentive to improve their service and pricing! For years I have gritted my teeth when shopping at Storables...they are overpriced and the service is mediocre to lousy. Even their bag/packaging situation is always fouled up. Every visit leaves me with a bag that is way too big and awkward or far too small and ripping as I carry the goods to the car. Interesting issues for a store that is all about organization and containers, boxes and bags.
