Then I have him "earn" the toys doing various chores and when he does finally earn them, I order online because I don't love super close. They don't get credit for my sales when they should.

I received a gift for my son when he was younger and that was how I was introduced to this store. The associates are helpful and friendly. They always have great deals and coupons especially if you are a part of their free "club". I went in today and randomly had a coupon on my account for $15 off! Woo hoooo! They have lots of flash cards, stem projects, educational and fun games, etc. A great alternate option other than shopping for toys at the "regular" places (Target, fleet farm, kohls, etc)

My husband and I checked this place due to our friend's recommendation. Recently, I got into Magic…read morethe Gathering (MTG). I bought a bundle gift set of an older MTG and wanted to get some card sleeves. It was a Wednesday evening when we arrived and people were playing MTG. They have quite of bit of MTG single cards on display. The owner, Tony was working at the time. He was very professional, friendly, and patient. I'm saying patience because my husband took forever to make a decision on what booster set he wanted to purchase! I think it is fairly priced. They also have Pokemon, Lorcana, different play mats, and more. We will definitely be back for more trading card game needs!

Compared to other locations, I think it is bigger and has a wide variety to choose from. Originally, I was looking to hopefully snag a cookbook, but didn't plan on finding myself a planner as well. You will find a variety of potential gifts for others or even yourself - ranging from bookmarks, planners, calendars to board games or books. Maybe this is what 40s is looking like to me, but HPB is severely underrated.

I heard a lot about Ross Dress for Less from family who lives in California. I was excited to see…read moreit here in Minnesota. The store have been opened for a month. It is basically like Burlington or TJ Maxx. I visited the store on Sunday, November 17th early evening. The store was busy. It was a little messy as in products are displaced on the shelves, some have fallen on the floor - typical environment for these kind of stores. Staff members where available throughout the store, but they were more focus on putting out products or ring up customers and move onto the next. It's retail, it's busy, it's understandable. You can definitely find gifts for value. I saw some holiday gifts that I would come back for. Otherwise, they have lots of clothes, beauty/spa products, toys, suitcases, snacks, perfume, bags, and more.

I was excited to purchase this pair of earrings after being told they were $200. As I was literally…read morepulling out my money to pay, the seller (yellow and red hair, lots of glitter on her face) suddenly said, "Oops, they're actually $300." I asked if they would honor the price I had been quoted, especially since I had already made the decision to buy based on that amount. They refused. Whether it was a genuine mistake or not, changing the price by 50% at the point of sale and refusing to honor the quoted price is incredibly unprofessional. It left a very poor impression I walked away without making a purchase. I understand that mistakes happen, but if you quote someone a price you should keep your word and honor it, even if it means losing a few bucks. A friend even tried to remind them of their quote on the final day or the con as they were not sold and they told her no as well. If you're shopping here, I recommend confirming the final price before getting attached to anything. I couldn't stop thinking about these earrings all weekend. I would have never gotten my hopes up if I heard $300 to start with.

Met these folks at the recent AnimeNYC and had a fantastic interaction!…read more They're not just your average, corporate anime store. They do have quite of selection of imported goods alongside American IP merchandise. The prices range from reasonable to pricey, so you may get lucky with a steal! The saleswoman behind the stand was so kind and patient with us. There were a few products I was eyeing and she pulled each and every one of them out individually in order for me to get a better look. Even the assortment of acrylic keychains, she went through each one individually until she found the character I wanted. She didn't have to but it was such a lovely gesture! We got to talking about our favorite characters, and once we found out we shared the same interest, she pulled out this pristine vintage plush from hidden behind the counter and offered it to me at a decent price, and I knew I had to get it then and there (as well as the keychain). I'm nowhere near their brick and mortar store, but if you happen upon these people at a local con, check them out! They're knowledgable and friendly and a pleasure to deal with!

My purchases were cheap but it could be free and I would never come back to this store.

I came in looking for a specific type of pant after failing to find them at three other stores. The nice young lady walked me over to the section which I thought was nice. Most usually point me in the direction. She stopped what she was doing and escorted me over. They have a huge baby section. Check out gal was friendly. Merchandise seems ok. I didn't really look too much for stuff other than what I needed. Prices are decent. First time there, probably not the last.
