    Creepy owner of Dollar King pretending to be busy after staring at me for 10 minutes straight
    Ryan D.

    Used to love this place. It's two blocks from where I live and has everything. Half the stuff is great priced too. I've recommended kids from the local high school to go and apply here as a great first job. The general staff is some of the nicest people. But today I went into the store and was followed around the entire time by a really overly creepy man. I was in the store for 20 minutes and he followed me for roughly 15 of that time. But it wasn't just that. He would walk up behind patrons and peer over their shoulders and try to look into everyone's purses and such. I get trying to protect your business from theft, but there is a line. At one point he walked to the end of an aisle and just stared at me for a good half the time I was in the store because I wanted to see how long he'd do it. It was so awkward I took a picture of him to try to make him feel weird so he'd leave me alone. I saw what looked like him taking a picture in some ladies bag with the tablet he was carrying around. He walked away after and she said I think he took a picture of my stuff. And I said I'd noticed it. I said something to the cashier, where I found out he is one of the owners here and was immediately put off by the whole idea of shopping here anymore. Almost let it go. But then a little later my wife went by and had a similar experience. Came and told me about a creep who was so close he probably knew her blood type. Caught him basically right over her shoulder where he then pretended to do inventory. I showed her the picture I took and she was like yup that's him. Said he looked into her purse when she was looking to see if she brought her bank card which made her feel very unsafe. I've heard from friends of the store that this store has gotten hit hard by theft. I get being protective over your business. But there is a right and wrong way to do it.

    Bad experience So I'm trying to return an item but I didn't have the Receipt.... First they told me without sticker and receipt we can't do anything, and I had the sticker but no receipt, they called their manager, she was so busy she didn't even answer her phone, and when she answers she is like no receipt we can't do Anything. I had my bank statement that shows I was there what time and when..... Only this location sell this kind purses, but they don't know what they have or what stuff they're selling.... Price is not much they could exchange it . I'm sorry for people in same situation like my self , because of busy manager and the girl who called her self supervisor, with loosing money, and wasting time with talking to this people.... Change ur position girl, cuz u have no power being supervisor, or manager....

    If you are looking for a dollar store, this has to be the holy grail of dollar stores. Clean, organized, friendly staff. It's got a TON of items in a variety of categories. I went for their crafts amd decor for a birthday and I swear they could compete with Michaels on items, but on price they beat Michaels by at least 100%! I will never visit another dollar store if it's not dollar king!

    When I was there at the 1st time, I liked the place. They have pretty many products. Everything was $1.25+tax. However, the catch is nothing is refundable or unchangeable even though the product has a problem. What is it? Is it a mafia ownership store??? I was So thirsty. They had cold bottles of perrier, so, I bought it. I brought it to my car and opened it and drank it, but there was no carbonation. Cardonated water in the glass bottle doesn't have carbonation? That means it is really old or they stored it wrong. It is the same as I bought a loaf of bread and it has mold in it. So, I asked for exchange, but the manager lady said she can't exchage or refund after I made $15.66 of purchase from them. Really?? Put yourself in customer's shoes, lady.. I Just asked for exchange.. not even refund cuz I was thirsty anyways.., but she just refused it. She did not even say an apologetic word. Is it even legal to sell that condition of products..? I can't open all the bottles to check up if it is ok before I purchase it. I was so upset about her attitude and the quality of the product they sold me not only about the money.. They should not sell any food products if they are not going to be responsible like that..

    Parking in rear. Everything is $1.11

    I used to love this place. I walked in today and prices were at $1.21. Why? 99cent store beats this and I'm not coming back here.

Currently Shorthand has 3 locations - Highland Park, Larchmont Village, and San Anselmo. This Highland Park location is the flagship location. [Parking]: There are plenty of metered parking spots and paid public parking lots, but parking can be hard to come by during busy shopping seasons. [Selection]: The shop offers greeting cards, pens, notebooks, pen, pencils, gift wraps, etc. I like the greeting card selection a lot better at Shorthand, but I didn't see too many Valentine's Day cards. The shop was a lot more colorful than Crush & Touch as Shorthand organized pens and pencils by color. They also sell really neat hand drawn Highland Park and Eagle Rock maps. The shop also sells various colors of ribbon per yard and gift wrap. Each color of ribbon has a slightly different price. I actually got a red tight weave ribbon for $1.75 per yard and the staff even gave me a slightly extra length. [Gift Wrap Service]: Customers can purchase gifts in store or bring them in from elsewhere. In general, regular (one sheet) = $8, large (two sheets) = $14, and extra large (three sheets+) = $20+. [Conclusion]: A really cute stationery shop with all the supplies for gift wrapping.

She was kind and helpful, and you can tell she really loves and knows her craft well! It was an intimate setting, and it was a fun experience to learn about one process of candle making. At the end of the night, you get to go home with your own hand poured candle that you created. The intention setting part of the workshop was very peaceful and created an opportunity to reflect on the past year and be intentional about something you'd like to foster for yourself in this new year. Excellent class and I'd return to this studio for another one. However, $70 may be a bit steep for some for a workshop like this.

Walk in here and you can smell the ambition, acrylic, and caffeine. It's like stepping into a time capsule where brushes still matter, ink still stains, and creativity doesn't come with a subscription fee. The value here and the prices were super reasonable. I came here with my draftsman, a guy who still draws by hand -- a dying breed in a world that runs on Ctrl+Z. Watching him walk these aisles was like watching a monk in a cathedral. Every shelf, every pen, every tube of paint is curated chaos. And the best part? The staff actually care. They know the difference between gouache and watercolor -- and they don't judge you for mispronouncing it. Friendly service, clean restrooms (a small miracle in Los Angeles), and a selection so deep it could inspire Picasso's ghost to start over. From sketchbooks to sculpting tools, markers to mat cutters, they've got everything you need to make something real -- or at least look like you tried. Blick's been around since 1911, and this Beverly Blvd location has kept L.A.'s art scene supplied through every phase -- from punk flyers to NFT hangovers. It's an institution, and it deserves to stay that way. Blick Art Materials is a love letter to real art in a copy-paste world. The service is friendly, the aisles are inspiring, and the supplies are top-notch. If you make anything with your hands, your heart, or even just a stubborn sense of nostalgia -- support this place. Because when shops like this vanish, so does a little bit of the soul of Los Angeles. Support this place -- or someday the only "art supplies" left will be ring lights. Blick is where real artists shop while influencers pretend to paint.
