Roo's Playhouse lives in the Greenwood Mall. I am sure it is popular with all the military families…read moreand if my family lived closer I could see us coming here all the time. It is a bargain at only $5 per kid to have your kid play here all day. There is a track with peddle cars, ballpit, inflatable pirate ship bouncy castle, climbing wall and lots of other things to keep the kids busy. I have been here with the kids for several hours and it always have to pull them out when it is time to leave. There is plenty of seats and tables for parents and wifi. They also allow outside food and drink so you can get a Tim's from the Mall and bring in with you. The staff are friendly, engaged and good with kids which is not a give in at some places. They also seem to keep busy tidying up after the kids and washing toys. The lady that was on duty in the play area pushed my little guy on a swing. They are the only playplace I have ever seen that offers a child minding service. This is $5 a kid per hour. You are not supposed to leave the mall while your kid is being cared for. The only things I could knock it for was that the place is showing a lot of wear and tear and could do with some freshening up. I also don't like the arcade games- there is a gallery of them right by the play area for little kids. They run in loud demo mode so that you can hear bloops and bleeps all over the place. The way things are set up you have to pass right by them to get to the play area and the game subject matter are not suitable for young kids. They also have lots of candy and junk right by the check out at eye level for kids. I don't like the suggestive selling to kids and it can make it hard to leave.

No chance of contracting the virus, and no need to leave the house! (Or wear pants!) Well, make sure you lower body is well obscured should you choose to omit essential clothing below the torso. Anyhoo~ Here's my review for remote escape room "REMOTE PLAY - THE HEIST"... A really quick summary of the basic premise: Steal money from rich CEO James Fawkes On a scale of 1-5, how much would I recommend this room: 4 (5 being an absolute need to tell everyone!) On a scale of 1-5, how memorable was this room: 4 (5 being I will remember it forever till I die!) Some special/random features I must inform other Yelpers: - Started out not expecting much, but there's much to do! - A lot of the puzzles are early tech based, interesting stuff. - The variety of puzzles kept everyone busy busy. - I wish I was better at looking for items! - Customized inventory system available. - Thankfully, the 80 minutes time limit is more than enough. - If you're good, you're allowed to steal MORE money! - If you have a team of 4, pricing is gold! Happy escaping! And stay informed, healthy, and safe, everyone! Oh, should you have more questions about anything escape room, feel free to contact me! I am happy to connect with anyone else who is also into this extremely addicting pastime. Signing off, ESCAPE MATTSTER

It was a Wednesday night so completely empty, but that honestly just made the experience that much more fun! the bartender was so kind and helpful. We played 2 player Pacman, pinball, air hockey and the coolest part was that there was an N64 console with Smash on in the back on a projector screen. It was so much fun! the bartender said they have comedy shows and event happenings on the weekends. They had a nice selection of beers, sodas, and they also had liquor options. A bit of a goth theme was sprinkled throughout the space as well so that was fun.

It's a water park!" There is more for adults to do than there is for younger children; you do have to be a certain height to go down most of the slides. But, there is a children play area as well! There are about seven awesome water slides; most are body slides but there is one you go down on tubes and another one you go down on a carpet! The slide line-ups are usually long, but they go by faster than you think. The walk up the hill to get to the slides is usually the worst part, especially in the heat! They also have whirlpool, a lazy river and a wave pool. And, dry activities like an arcade and mini-golf (at an extra cost!) You can rent a double inner tube for around $10.00 - great for couples or parents with children. You can use this on the lazy river and the slide! Inside are lounging chairs for your use, you can also rent lockers and there are picnic tables if you wanted to bring your own lunch! Bonus: There is a Beaver Tails located inside!

I wouldn't recommend selling to them, a boxset I bought from them for $90, I decided I didn't want it and they offered me $40 for it and then put it back for sale for $120. They'll give you less than a dollar for a DVD but then sell them anywhere from $8 to $20, they're as bad with their CDs and anything else really. Why buy something for that much money used when I can get it brand new for less on Amazon?

Three and a Half Stars (someday, Yelp)…read more This is an awesome place to get your geek on. Toys, records, pop culture collectibles, video games, genre movies - bascially anything that would get you made fun of in high school - they sell here. New and used. When you walk through the front door you'll think that you were just transported back in time to a 1980s corner store/video rental shack. The Bearded Wonder at the counter next to the popcorn machine (oh yeah, they sell popcorn too) will glare at you as if you just walked into his bedroom without knocking - but that's okay - just ignore him. He's too stoned on popcorn fumes to do you any harm...or provide any customer service (more on that later). The movies are situated in a cool, geek-chic fashion (Festival Flicks, American Directors, etc.) which lets you know that this isn't your average video rental store. Actually, video rentals aren't that average anymore which is another thing that makes Spin-In unique. Past the video rental section is the toy section where you'll find vintage G.I. Joe and Star Wars figures in a glass case. There's also a lot of new action figure releases and collectibles. Phase III of Spin It is the music department. This section houses a plethora of new and used vinyl as well as CDs and cassettes. Their record selection is awesome and perfectly organized. They have a lot of cool used 45 rpm records. I picked up the Japanese version of KISS's "I Was Made for Loving' You" single from 1979 for $12. Good deal. One of the few good deals in the store. That leads me to my biggest pet peeve here: This store is waaay expensive. The G.I. Joe and Star Wars figures I mentioned range in price from $10-30. While I understand the temptation to jack the prices for vintage toy items, I don't agree with it. I think that this store is taking advantage of people who are unaware that they can find this stuff on eBay for way better deals. But people will apparently pay the high price to have it in their hands right away, so it is what it is. What I can't fathom is why Spin-In charges so much for new items that can be picked up at big box stores for much less. For example, why would I pay them $35.99 for one of the KISS vinyl re-issues when I can get it at the HMV at Champlain Place down the street for $22.99? If I'm paying that much extra I should get a tax receipt with it so I can claim it as a charitable donation. I know it's important to support local businesses but there's a limit as to how far I'll go. It has to be a win-win situation for both the business and the consumer, not win-lose in favour of the business. Not all of the new toys are outrageously priced, but some are. This leads me to pet peeve #2: I wanted to purchase a couple of items from the locked collectibles display. I looked around for employee assistance. The record counter guy was busy with three customers in line plus he had another guy waiting for him in the video game section. I went back out front to see Tommy Chong who was still standing dutifully by his popcorn machine huffing butter fumes. "You'll have to see the guy in the record shop. He has the keys to the display," was his response as he stared off into the distance with his mouth hanging slightly open. Mr. Chong wasn't busy and had zero customers to take care of. I guess being the popcorn monitor is a pretty intense job and he can't be bothered with other menial tasks such as assisting customers. I had to wait for the record guy, who was totally patient and friendly and didn't seem to be at all bothered that he was busy while his co-worker wasn't. Spin-In is a great place to browse around and take notes as to what to look out for on eBay and Amazon and at least one of the staff members is friendly and helpful. Their prices are simply too high to patronize them on a regular basis. While there are some good deals to be had amongst the used records and toys, they are few and far between and if you're not a patient person who likes digging for treasure you'll just turn around and leave.
