I guess I have forgotten to update this favorite that I just saw on the Shop Local in Boulder Yelp…read morelist. I shop there regularly for my grandchildren and had shopped there long before Yelp existed, for my own children. It's quite the eclectic mix still, with items for any age. My youngest loves the things she and we see whenever they visit.We have gotten her craft items to make, she has purchased little collecting boxes she likes with her own spending money. I have bought gifts for my adult children for their homes too.Things for their yards and decor items for their houses. Kites for every age and ability are still available. Its their signature collection and why the store came to be, so long ago. The staff is still wonderful and if you see it, buy it, because specific stock items change and may not be able to be restocked. I am not sure that I have ever walked out without finding something for someone on my list.

Into the Wind is a super cool kite store/toy store!…read more Anytime I come to Pearl Street in Boulder I stop here. I've got two young kids, so there is always something to buy in here. If you are shopping for kites they have tons of unique options. If not, there are still tons of other toys to shop for. Definitely check them out if there are any littles in your life that could use some special gifts! If you don't you would still enjoy walking through!

I haven't been back in about 12 1/2 years and was recently back for a week for a funeral so I got to explore some of my old favorites.

My personal favorite section was the horror area with such a beautifully curated display! I also really enjoyed the Colorado section too with so much material on the many trails, hikes, foliage, foraging, etc... this was so enjoyable! I could've easily spent double the time I did in this shop, but it leaves me excited to come back and do exactly that. A great stop for book lovers!

I am a sucker for an independent bookstore. It is a lovely space, right next to a quality tea…read moreshop. My favorite feature is the mystery book section near the front. These are books wrapped in brown paper, with a few descriptors on the front, and a quotation from the book along the spine. These books are not for sale per say, but you can make a donation to a rotating charity (when I was there it was for an organization that supported farm education for youth). I was introduced to this shop by my college-age son, who brought home a whole stack of these mystery books at Christmas and each of us got to pick one on Christmas morning (based on nothing but the descriptors and quotation). It was really delightful for our bibliophile family. If I were a FoCo local, I fear I would be in here on a very regular basis.

Some things to help you out inside the store:…read more Storefront: A sizable kids section in far right corner from the entrance. Books, games, puzzles, toys. Lego table close by, containing loose Legos for purchase by the ounce. A digital catalog is available to employees, but due to the "thrift store" nature of the store - lots of items coming and going quickly - it is not always reliable, but it is often a helpful tool. Most items have a "used item" sticker - large and white with an orange strip on top. Some items have tiny white stickers instead - these are "new items" and they are more expensive. If you can't find a sticker, it has probably fallen off and staff can price-check it at the registers. Most new releases do not come in the day of release. If they get them in at all, it will be afterward unless someone is really quick with read/trade-in, which happens. But usually not the place to look for a book that came out yesterday. My favorite things to buy here are used hardcover books, Funko Pops, and used video games. Great deals on games for older consoles, most Xbox 360/PS3 titles are $5-10. Bathrooms: In the far left corner from the entrance, hug the left-hand wall until you get there. Two gender-neutral, single-toilet rooms. Both rooms have baby changing tables. Returns: If you had your receipt and you're getting your return put back on your card, it'll take 2-3 days for it to be spendable in your bank account. Buyback: A drivers license/govt ID with address is needed to sell to the store. You must be over 18 or with a parent/guardian with an ID to sell your items. The store follows federal pawn shop laws. The license is used to create a profile for you which keeps track of your store credit. Store credit never expires and is usable nationwide. Payout options include cash, store credit, or you can decline the offer and get your items back. Store credit offer is usually around double the cash offer. Buyback is percentage-based from what the store will price the item at. Item pricing is mostly done by a computer program - extra research is done on items like Funko Pops, comic books, certain books, etc. using the internet. The best payout percentages right now seem to be on vinyl records (vinyl need to have inner sleeve or they will be returned) and Pokémon cards. (Loose Pokémon and Magic the Gathering cards are bought in bulk, but they are not always purchasing cards, so call ahead) An example estimate from buyback: Five hardcovers and six paperbacks will get you around $7 cash, $15 store credit. Items that are generally not accepted: Spiral-bound books, VHS tapes, cassette tapes, dictionaries/excessively large books, Harlequin/Silhouette romances, textbooks, magazines, PC games. Outdated health/diet/cookbooks (10 years). Outdated yearly sport video games (5 years). Most often, these items will be returned to you. Most of these rules are because these items don't sell/take up too much space in the store. If you have any personal information stamped/stickered/written inside your DVD cases and book covers, they will not be removed by staff before the item is made available for purchase to the public, so if that matters to you, take care of it beforehand. Checking Out: You will be asked about the magazine program. A free trial for two months of some big-name magazines. But with any free trial, you have to remember to cancel it before you're charged. I cancelled my trial online the day I signed up. Got my free two months, no problem. If you're not a magazine person, "no thank you". The Buyback desk has closed early before for various reasons, (though not often) so if you're traveling from far away to do a buyback order, it might be a good idea to call the store just to make sure. There is usually a 10% off coupon available through the text-to-mobile program, although I think you can only get it once. Text FTCOLLINS to 52219 and reply "yes" to the message to get sent a link. Tapping on the link will pull up a barcode to be scanned at the register. Cell service is iffy on this side of the shopping plaza, so maybe grab a screenshot of the barcode before you go.

Scam! My Father and Mother were scammed they took multiple boxes of DVDs to sell and they offered…read morethem $14 dollars for two full boxes of DVDs. That is over 50 DVDs in total. My parents didn't know what to do other than to take the money because they are in dire need of help. They called me in tears telling me what happened. I would never recommend this store to anyone. When I called the store originally they sounded very promising and that is why I originally sent them over there. They are a bunch of talk and the worst people you can imagine. The store needs to shut down they don't help people they make it worse.

Books are heavily important to have in a digital age where companies have more power to restrict your choices for reading. The whole store was also pretty well stocked, and they even have an anime/manga section for all the local otakus and weebs. What took us by surpruse was a huge section purely dedicated to Harry Potter. Almost like a shrine to the wizarding world, it was immense and not even temporary. Another neat bit was the vinyl, but sadly no video game soundtracks. Which made me a sad goblin.
