You can get a cap and a shirt for $20, or 4 t-shirts for $20, or 2 custom t-shirts for $20, and all kinds of deals. The coolest thing about this shop is that you can pick your own design for a shirt! The ladies were friendly and helped us figure out what was going on, pick out a shirt, and then they put the design on it in no time. There's so much variety in designs, from kids to trendy designs to standard designs. Really cool place. Check it out on your way out of Port A!

I don't know when this place opened on the Island. I was always a fan of another candy company down…read morethe street. We stopped here because my 21-month-old grandson has a recently emerging fascination with Mario. When his parents drove by on the way to meet us for dinner, he started shouting "Mario" over and over. So, after dinner, we all stopped in. It is a very nice candy store. There are lots of fun things to look at like statues of the Hulk and other comic book characters. The color scheme is bright and appealing. The bins of candy throughout the store had me really excited. The concept is the same as the other candy store. You fill a bag with chocolate for a set per pound price, or you fill a bag with non-chocolate candy for a different set per pound price. The difference between the stores is that this one is about twice as expensive, and they don't seem to make any of the chocolate candies in house. None of us grabbed a bag. The price seemed too high, even if you got to put a great candy mix in your bag. I recommend this place for the atmosphere. If you can control yourself and not fill up multiple bags, the price may not be a problem.

Great selection of candy, but the prices are a little high. I also wish there was a scale available…read moreso customers could weigh their candy before checking out. The lady at the ice cream counter was very friendly, but our checkout experience was disappointing. Jonathan Cohen was not friendly, never greeted us, stayed on his phone while checking us out, and slammed my receipt into my hand when I asked for it. My sister also had a poor experience with him. After she paid, he walked away to the back. When we asked another employee for paper towels, she rolled her eyes before helping us. The candy selection was great, but the customer service needs improvement.
