Chicago News Now

I had a very long travel time this holiday, but I met Shaneka this morning and she was very pleasant. Shaneka made my HOLIDAY and DAY! She is very pleasant and a great asset to your company. Shaneka should Definitely be Employee of the month if not year.

It is a bit expensive if you want to buy snacks or sodas but still a lot less than you would pay at the 7-Eleven down Jackson Street. There is a good selection of books and local souvenirs (T-shirts, postcards, refrigerator magnets and so on). All in all, similar to what you might find at an airport convenience store but quite a bit cheaper. The service was efficient and warm.

The easiest way to find this souvenir shop is to follow signs inside the station for the food court.

With exception of having a hard time finding the location, this is exactly what I was looking for in last minute souvenirs before leaving Chicago. They have a fair amount to pick from, considering how small the store is.

Overpriced. For a Snapple and a 5oz bag of pretzels I paid $12.92. I should have put everything back and gotten snacks at McDonald’s. Rather annoyed. The bag of pretzels was over $9. You can get a 16oz bag of the same pretzels for that price at a grocery store.

So I went to the Chicago New Nows in Chicago . All I wanted was a plastic bag because I bought many things that couldn't fit in my back pack. I was being polite and ask nicely if I can have one but they were mean and rude. The worker ask "Is that all? Just a plastic bag? Well you'll have to buy something here to get the plastic bag or pay 7 cent." His tone was unprofessional and rude and it seems like he couldnt careless about it. I was like standing there baffle, because I was nice to them and ask politely yet they were rude about it, me buying only a plastic bag. Other customers were there and the same worker who I ask about the plastic bag was sweet talking to the other customers. I was the only asain customer there. When it was my turn to pay, I grab just random candy to pay. He looked at me and didn't talk nicely and nor was professionally. When I left at the store he was laughing with his coworker talking about me behind my back so loud. You don't have to be so rude when someone is asking you nicely.
