The first time I went to get a haircut here, I waited for 45 minutes. The lady at the front desk did not check me in, so the stylist did not know that I was there. The stylist did a wonderful job, and the haircut was free due to the long wait. My experience would have been perfect if I didn't have to wait, but they fixed the problem in the end by giving the haircut to me at no charge.

Prairie Gardens is the best place to go for trees and plants. I have gotten most of my trees from this store, and they have all thrived. They have a very good selection of typical and unusual trees and shrubs, and offer a good guarantee. The staff seems to be very knowledgable, and they often have workshops where you can learn about different gardening techniques. In the spring, they have a wide array of herbs and vegetables.

Pier 1 has a decent variety of home decor and dinnerware. Many of their items are Indian or Asian in style, and the selection seems to change often. The prices can be somewhat steep, especially since you don't always know how well the items were made. It's a good place to go if you want "unique" items for your home.

Menards has a decent selection of lumber, although they don't carry exotic woods or very high grades of lumber. If you want to get good lumber at a cheap price, be prepared to sort through lots of boards, checking for warpage, knots, etc.
You can drive your vehicle into the lumberyard itself, allowing you to easily load your lumber directly into your vehicle, instead of putting it into a cart and trying to navigate through the store.

I had this company replace the broken springs on my garage door. They were extremely quick - the service was done in a few hours - and the repairman was on time and very friendly. A few years later, and I've had no more problems with the door, so they did a very good job.

I chose this garbage service because they offered recycling. I'm not so certain that they actually recycle anything - the garbage men who service my neighborhood just dump my (neatly sorted) recyclables into the truck with the rest of the trash. I now take my recyclable trash to the Urbana recycling drop-off center.
That being said, the garbage bins that they supply you are sturdy and large, and the trash is collected on time. If it weren't for the recycling issue, they do a great job.

I went to the Recycling center to get mulch for my garden. They have a few different varieties of mulch, all at very reasonable prices. Small and large quantities of mulch are available - you can load up a garbage can or the bed of your truck. If you have a pickup truck without a cap, they will even load the mulch for you (with a tractor). Otherwise, you will have to load the mulch yourself.

I went to Depke to pick up welding gloves for a class I was taking at UIUC. They have a huge selection of welding supplies, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I was able to get thin, flexible gloves for TIG work and some thick gloves for oxyfuel work. The selection of sizes allowed me to choose gloves that fit properly.
