Duh. * A separate, "secret" nook in the back that houses all the real gems * That great book smell that hits you when you walk through the door * One or more store cats (must be friendly and allow petting) * Two stories (this is just icing, really) * A small staff that really knows their stuff * Enough room to walk between stacks without feeling claustrophobic or crowded Arundel's might be the closest I've come to finding the perfect bookstore. They don't have a cat, but they make up for it in spades with - are you ready for this? - a windy staircase and books to the ceiling! Swoon. I could spend the whole day here. Last time I spied the complete Nancy Drew series (behind glass!) but decided on an old Mark Twain instead. Love, love, love this store.

Last October, I ordered one large and one small container of body butter. The small was in coconut which I really liked, so I ordered a large of the coconut. I went through all the butter and opened the large one of coconut, however it had no scent. I contacted them and I'm sorry to say, customer service is terrible. Shari, was very short and curt. I love supporting small businesses, but I will definitely find another to support. Check your products as soon as you get them to fix the problem then and there.

I LOVE their products!…read more I have been using Buddha Bath moisturizer exclusively for over two years and never grow tired of their scents. They smell clean and crisp- not overly perfumed or muddy. Lilac smells like lilacs, lemon smells like lemon and Seattle Rain? It smells like heaven. I was incredibly late picking up my order and the owner, Shari, was so gracious and kind. You can tell she's passionate about the quality of her products. We geeked out over blends and scents- I could have hung out with her for hours. This brand is a Seattle gem!

Given COVID (and that I have no time), I spoke with Debbie on the phone and she helped me find a model that met our needs, within our price range, and that they had immediately available.

I was told the refrigerator would be available in two weeks and delivered two days later on Friday August 21, Thursday I reached out to confirm what time they would be delivering and the sales person basically laughed and said something about their Wi-Fi being down. Stated Sorry your refrigerator is not going to be delivered on Friday. I had taken the day off so I could be here. He stated he could have it delivered the following Tuesday. I was going out of town for the week, I asked for a callback did not receive one, left a message saying I just wanted my money refunded and to cancel my delivery. Did not receive a call back, called four more times and finally got a call back from a customer service person in Florida; so much for Local small business. Finally Friday afternoon at four they stated they would refund my money and 7 to 10 days. I asked for confirmation number or email so I proof the order had been canceled and they refused. I will never use this company again.

This is one of my favorite annual events…read more Local shops come to the Leif Erikson Hall and put up booths selling various items, often between 25-75% off original prices! I've been attending the last few years, but I only go on the first night, and I know on that night, they offer a few beer options for around $5 so that you can "sip and shop" as you stroll through the aisles. Sometimes it's crowded, especially since the space isn't huge. However, it's a happy atmosphere, you get to support small local businesses, and the prices can't be beat. I always leave with at least one or two items. Because it's so centrally located, it's great to explore the rest of downtown Ballard afterwards!
