Hamid and Majid visited our property, was very knowledgable on the subject, and enlightened me about the option to check out the permanent/year long lights instead. I did my research, and he was so right. I bought few packs of Enbrighten lights on sale from Costco, and Hamid and Majid helped put those up around my property within just a few hours before Christmas. I am very happy with the investment. The lights are beautiful, and after the holidays they light up my property just like ambient security lights would. The cost of putting those up and taking those down breaks even easily by year 4, with an opportunity to wow your neighbors and guests throughout the year!

UPDATED REVIEW: They…read moredid a good job on install and the lights look good when they actually work. Unfortunately, they never work. Spent $2000 on Christmas lights and we haven't gone 2 consecutive days without the lights shutting off and having to be reset. When you reach out to the owner, he guides you how to reset the outlet, but does nothing to actually fix the issue from happening again and then just stops responding. Like I said, lights are great when they work but it's just really shoddy work. When you're spending thousands of dollars on lights the last thing you expect is for them to not work. Every. Single. Day. And when you reach out for help, I expected them to actually come out and fix the issue rather than just say hey, reset the outlet and try again. Acting like it's a Nintendo 64 you can just unplug, blow on it and plug it back in. If you're looking for high quality work and lights, save your money and energy and go somewhere else as I will be doing the same from here on out.

Spirit Halloween is the perennial pop-up store and pretty much the only place that sells costumes…read morefor Halloween anymore. There used to be a few costume stores around but they couldn't stay in business. They've got it down to a science these days and visiting the store can be a lot of fun just to check everything out. There are tons of animatronics to test out as well. It moved to the old location of the CVS that closed down. So it's pretty accessible. The staffing is minimal, but friendly enough. It's a pretty big store and they have costumes of all types for pretty much everybody from babies all the way to adults. They've all got cheap and expensive costumes as well. There are also tons of costume props of all kinds, like swords, scepters, backpacks, necklaces, makeup, etc. There are numerous choices of all kinds and you can't go wrong looking here for your Halloween costume, prop, or party accessory.

I highly recommend them without any reservation.

Do you recommended puck lighting under the rim of my 22 foot curved barbecue Island and every night since the first night looking out through the kitchen windows to the island is just exceptional..

Hopefully, I can attach the video I took at Sunset last night.. if not, I'll add still photos.. Very minor punchlist to adjust a couple brackets holding the string lights and they came out immediately to do that while never once pressuring for payment till I was a 100% satisfied.
