I came in to get a few birthday bags, because this is hands down the cheapest place to get them. My daughter is a huge dollar tree fan, and shows up to nearly every party or function with something from here (from decorations to grab bags for the kids), so I'm following her example. I got the bags, and toodled down the toy aisle, where I found playdoh and a couple puzzle toys to add to the gifts I was already going to put in the bags. At the checkout counter, I saw the Mylar balloons, and bought one to tie to the bag handles. Total cost for the haul... 12.91. I mean, I felt like I won that shopping trip. :-)

It was a dark and stormy night...Halloween is upon us...I'm not going even going to go there. I…read moreneeded some white knee highs, and knew they would have them. I opened up the doors, and they had tons of stuff....my favorite would've been the Amy Brown fairy costumes for adults. I had a look around, well, not a quick look around, cause this store has everything you would ever want in a Halloween costume. Besides the Amy Brown fairies for adults and children, they had the Glee cheerleader costume. And, they have a pregnant stomach, and Super Mario, and naughty nurse and tons and tons of stuff. They have a zombie baby decoration that cries when you walk by. There's an area in the back set up like a haunted house, complete with fake corpses and even fake headless things. They aren't cheap, aren't local, and are very commercial, but the next time I need a Halloween costume, I'll try there first...if I had only bought the Glee cheerleader costume, that would've been awesome, or the naughty nurse, or the fairy. let me explain about the fairies...I always wanted one for a tattoo, and Amy Brown fairy. That is how much I like Amy Brown's work. I was so surprised to see that. And they are so detailed. There are fitting areas, as well. I'd probably need one to try on the Glee cheerleader costume. So, I touched, and pressed all the buttons setting off all the motion active decorations, and left, buying one pair of white knee highs.

I was checking their site online and was presented with a terrific 'Save 25% on one item' coupon that could be used in the retail stores as well. Oh, yes, I do love saving money, so I can BUY MORE Halloween decorations....so I printed out the coupon and headed over to see the goodies. Lots of screamers on display, believe you me. I really wanted the evil three-headed dog with flashing red eyes -- all six of them -- and steam issuing from every snarling mouth, but it was more than I could justify spending. What did I get, you ask? Well, if you want to know that, you'll just have to come trick or treating at my house this year, won't you? Warning: If you are deathly afraid of clowns, I'd avoid this store at all costs. Or at least take a friend (someone you can trust) with you. EVERYWHERE....clowns!

What a supurb collection of artery clogging stuff. If you are having guests and need a little something extra, this place is a good choice. The prices aren't too bad and things are very often maked down or on sale. It is a self-checkout store but usually there are folks to help you get started and the bags are good and sturdy. Clean, well-lighted and organized means I will definately return. Even if just to browse...said no one ever!

It reminds me of Five Below, all sort of things here for the low low too. I was surprised they have Asian products like snacks and noodles. Another is that they have a aisle with all sort of candies too (Think like Mr. Bulky). They have tons of games and lots of trinkets of today's stuff that makes good gifts if you wanna give as gifts for last minutes. I found some reasonable prices on home goods like decor. I definitely can see myself coming back here. They do have self checkout, so you don't need an employee to help you unless you want them to help you find a particular product. Easy in and out. First in the Northland!

This is a bit of a parenting test to come on a busy day with little kids; it gets packed, and there are lots of lovely yet very breakable items. So far, our track record is aces! This last visit in, we found a candle, a gift for the mother-in-law, and a hedgehog ornament that my daughter was very upset to not come away with. Fortunately, the friendly clerk noticed me trying to discreetly buy it and we got it done without my kiddo noticing. Friendly staff, amazing taste throughout, and a fun, higher end shop to peruse.

It's also a good place to start the Holidays in Crestwood event from 12/4-6, complete with a gingerbread house tour! Almost every wonderful and very different shop has an intricately detailed hand-made gingerbread house or building inside, one of which is the iconic Rainy Day Book store in Fairway...it's amazing! I loved Pear Tree and will be going back frequently to see all the things I missed, and all the new antiques and fabulous finds that will be there next time!

I wanted to start an affordable Pandora type bracelet...affordable meaning, other family members…read morewon't spend 1/2 a paycheck on upscale charms. I got word that Hallmark carries them. So I went to Hallmark not for a card this time, but for charms. Granted, I've always loved theisHallmark store for cards. That's a no brainer for me. But this review is for the employee who went above and beyond her job to help me out with the bracelets. They carry Davinci brand bracelets and charms. The charms are cuter than Pandora at a fraction of the cost. The bracelet...so-so...I don't like lobster claw clasps as much, but it is a very pretty bracelet and high quality. But that's not Hallmark's fault. The charms are pleasant and difficult to choose from cause there's so many of them. At 4.99-6.99, you can make 3 bracelets for the cost of a few Pandora charms. I wanted one for my mom as well...again, affordability is a must here for charms. I'm not the only one buying them for her. The employee was great. No complaints whatsoever. Ofcourse the store carries tons of Hallmark items, ornaments, figurines, stuffed animals, Russell Stovers. It's the store I use often when I need a quick card, cause there's hardly a line. I love this store. I'll always be using it. I'm surprised I've not reviewed it before now.
