My family and I were cruising around Valley Center and saw a sign that said 'Barn Sale'. With us…read moreloving an adventure and intrigued by the sign we followed it and fell into the most amazing place!!! When we pulled up we were immediately drawn in by lots of cool treasures and antiques lining the entrance to a huge barn! The barn was full of antiques, paintings, taxidermy & unique and magical treasures of all kinds. We must have spent over an hour and a half just looking through all the cool stuff. It's the perfect place to find something cool that you know you won't find anywhere else! The family that runs it are so kind and welcoming and make it a pleasure to shop. We have since made a point to drive out to their barn sales 'just to look'. Although we always end up grabbing something that we just have to have!

It's the cutest store that sells items from several different people that rent space inside. It has tons of items from antiques, to Furniture, to clothing, to nostalgic candy and everything in between. It's especially nice to go during the holidays, as they have tons of great items for gifting, or decorating. Some of the booths will have sales on their items as well. I've done several articles of clothing from here that I really loved. There is plenty of street parking around, and you can walk to other stores and restaurants just a ways down the street. They have frequent star events where they will offer treats and drinks as well. Check this place out first your holiday shopping, or just all year round. It's definitely unique, and has the most beautiful items inside. I'm sure you will agree once you make a visit.

No issues with the store itself, as it has everything you'd expect from an antique store-…read moresilverware, typewriters, records, old McDonald's toys, etc. The challenge is with many of the consignment booth prices. There are many things that are egregiously overpriced. For example, there is a unicycle that appears to have been kept outside and has a flat tire. I checked online and could get the exact same model, brand new, for less than they were charging. I understand that booth owners can charge whatever they like, but just make sure you have your phone with you so you can check if it is a good deal or not!

It has been a while since my last review. I've been back twice and both times the staff are STILL…read morerude. They don't welcome you in or say goodbye when you leave (even after I said "have a good day!" as I left, they just ignored me) and while shopping they follow you around. While this may seem like a bit of a reach, and maybe other have had better experiences, it just feels that if you are youngish, or look young, they just treat you with no respect. As for the selection, while it is large, almost EVERY booth charges way too much for their stuff, which is frankly a lot of junk, but with "vintage" slapped on it to bump up the price. There are some other consignment stores on Grand with both vintage and handmade stuff which are all better priced and actually have nice staff. It's a shame because at one point I felt this store was a cool place to spend a decent amount of time in, but with the staff, and the fact that "vintage" = expensive, I just don't recommend this place at all.

Excellent woodworking craftmanship. However, if you need a project completed on time or if you…read morewant to work with a reasonable professional, DO NOT select Future Antiques as your woodworking contractor. Not only were our two pieces of furniture completed and delivered late (one piece 3 days late, one piece 2 weeks late), when the second piece was delivered and we refused to pay the final 50.00 balance due to the not meeting our deadlines, the owner reacted unprofessionally and disturbingly and re-entered our house (unathorized) and spitefully removed ONE drawer from the cabinet he had just installed uttering he was not going to get screwed again! Clearly, this is not the first time he has let a customer down, but so long as you don't choose him for your project, it could be the last!

I'm updating my review of this company after having hired another contractor two days ago to come…read morein to fix our cabinetry. Every single door made by this company had to be shaved down because they overlapped and wouldn't close. The doors were already stained, finished, and ready to.be hung per Eric. He stated he could complete our job in one day, and I knew he was exaggerating. We also had to purchase an additional 12 hinges because Eric didn't supply them. Our drawer faces are not cut wide enough so you can see the tracks in the creases. The last check I wrote to Eric was for $250 to complete the baseboards. Total cost for baseboards and install was $300. He left the base on site and never installed it on April 15th or 26th. After everything, it seems he pawned this job off to his helper Jeremy or someone else because I truly want to believe Eric has talent as a finished carpenter, but I'm still not sure.

Grab Bag is just a fun place to walk through! Great prices and friendly staff. It's not a big…read moreplace, so it isn't overwhelming but it has a lot of really neat stuff, a "grab bag" if you will, of different things to go through from antique to vintage to homemade. I always find a little something for a birthday or to add to a birthday gift. It's great for teacher's gifts and stocking stuffers at the holidays too. It's my favorite antique shop in Esco and now has regular hours. It's worth a trip out to see what they have in their different booths. And even though it's neat and cute and stylish...it's never snooty or too kitschy. I really like it.

Oh, Escondido, how I love you and your antique and thrift stores…read more Grab Bag is one of many antique stores on Grand Ave. and in Escondido in general, but it's probably my favorite. It's small, run by really nice ladies, and isn't overpriced like at, say, the larger antique mall a few steps away. That said, it is smaller, so finding things is a bit harder. It's definitely a 'grab bag', but there are always a few nice gems there. Lots of old photographs and postcards, lots of knick knacks, and drawers of antique cloths/aprons/hankies/etc. I went and was able to find a nice variety of old pipes and lucky for me, they were all fifty percent off. Buying a sweet old man's pipe for only $12? Hooray! It seems certain days (most days) everything is fifty percent off, but the only downside is that it's not open regularly and hours are a bit sporadic. (I think the owner may have health problems which limit the number of hours open? But I don't quite remember.) Definitely worth a stop by if you're around downtown Escondido and looking for nice old things.

Now, she is selling the building and trying to sell what she can. I had a good deal on the jewelry, 25% off when the price is already low compared to sale prices outside. It is even brand new, not pre-owned. I hope she can sell off more things before the building gets sold. I hope I can come and visit her again. Best wishes, grandma.
