Hal's General Store and Hal's Emporium are in the same location but in two different buildings…read more I've always went into Hal's General Store thinking it was Hal's Emporium, which was just a slight oversight on my part because they are owned and operated by the same person. Hall's General Store is what it sounds like and what my first review was mainly on so this time I'm going to focus on Hal's Emporium side of the business. It is more crafts and gift side with a discount item section in the back. You have to experience Hal's Emporium to full appreciate review. All I can really say is that you'll save a lot of money and find really interesting stuff at both stores. It is well worth stopping in and browsing about. Over a year later, I still like shopping at both stores.
