So many of these gift shops in the Wisconsin Dells!…read more As there should be. A lot of the gift shops were the same assortment of t-shirts, coffee mugs, and hats. KDC Traders has a bit of a sharper edge. They had all sorts of glass collectibles, gothic themed knick knacks (dragons galore), as well as vintage themed collectibles (Elvis, Marilyn, Betty Boop, and the like). It's not the biggest gift shop in the Dells but it's packed full of chachkies. Which, really, is what the peruse down Broadway is all about. Get to it!

Stop on in; there's a doohickey waiting for you!

I stopped by The Pickled Cowboy in Wisconsin Dells on a Saturday afternoon in July looking for…read moreauthentic cowboy (girl) boots, and I was not disappointed. The shop has a huge selection of craftsman boots, western attire, and more. The owner was on site helping customers, and a couple of staff at the front and back registers made checkout seamless. I ended up finding boots that may not have been entirely handmade here in the USA, but they were the perfect fit and exactly one of the two styles I had in mind before entering the shop. After heading back home and changing into a dress paired with those boots, I immediately received compliments on my look at the festival I attended. Being able to see staff is a plus in this day and age, and the selection made it easy to find what I needed. The shop has a genuine vibe that makes browsing fun and inspiring. My gal pal had been in here prior while browsing the Dells and suggested this spot to me when I said I need new boots, and she was right. I pass the recommendation from her through me to you! Overall, it's a fantastic find and earns a full five stars from me.

The saleswomen said that he must not want to buy it for me and turned away. I stated that I own a business and pay for my own purchases and asked how much the skull was, only to be told that it was VERY EXPENSIVE, and still not get a price. Finally, I asked and was told that it might be over $1,500.00. so what? I could afford it. I strongly regret not buying 3 and then returning them to shut her up, but I'm not wasting money to get store credit at a place that treats me like chattel.

While searching for gifts and souvenirs in the Wisconsin Dells, I drove past here and remembered…read morebookmarking it on Yelp. This roadside store is part of the larger Wisconsin Dells mega complex, complete with its resorts / hotels, restaurants, and other attractions you would need. While I have visited during the down time, I'm glad I did, just so I don't have to deal with the crowds and the crazy traffic in and out of the Dells. This shop is basically your touristy souvenir shop. No real way of saying otherwise. With a private lot right off the highway, I proceeded to see if I could find something to take back with me. The shop was pretty loaded with stuff, as you can imagine. Wall to wall full of stuff that would make the shops in New Orleans or Las Vegas very much a competitor. There were some trinkets I opted to buy, although there were some Green Bay Packer fan stuff here too. Here in Wisconsin, it's all over the place anyway. The shop was empty of customers and the owners of the shop were in the front talking to each other when I breezed through the door. I could sense that it was the dead season aka off peak around here, especially when I was told it can get really crowded. I didn't mind though. Crazy can get crazy. Prices were true to form and very inexpensive. I got some souvenirs, along with a Native American dream catcher, since I've always wanted one - but never gotten one yet. The store itself is likened to a CVS or a Walgreens due to its floor space. It's big, but it doesn't have freezers or over the counter drugs! The overall service and ambiance of this place was goodly average. I wasn't pressured to by anything, so that was comforting. I would say that you can shop here for your needs, but I needed to price compare and shop around the dells, since there is a large assortment of stuff around. Majority of them are just silly things like t-shirts and stuff associated with the Wisconsin Dells or Wisconsin itself, so that's comforting to know. There are other things here as well, like a smorgasbord of things that could appeal to your fancy. If you are ever in the neighborhood and need a momento of your trip to Wisconsin and the Dells, come to this place, but you can definitely shop around to see the variety. Support local! B

The candy selection is still great; however, I was definitely disappointed in how low the taffy assortment was on the day we visited.

Candy is also no longer scoop your own either. It's all in prepacked bags. That being said, the homemade truffles and chocolates are still top of the line!

The Dells Mining Company is the reason that I went to the Dells. I watched a show on the Travel…read moreChannel about mines that sell buckets that you can sort through to find gems. It looked like fun. I believe that this company buys the buckets of sand and gems from somewhere in South Carolina. You have four options in the price of the buckets, starting at $15 and going up to $120. You pour the sand into a sifter, place it in the running water trough and look through to find gems. All of the buckets are guaranteed to have a cut gem in a plastic bag inside. It was fun. When you finish sorting you take your goodies inside and someone tells you what you've found. I had a fist-sized rose quartz that is lovely. What wasn't clear was (OMG!) how much it costs to have your gems cut. I had a gigantic garnet in my stash and asked how much it would cost. Um, $650. Nope, not gonna happen in this lifetime. I don't know tons about gems or cuts, but it seems that there is no telling what kind of quality it would be if I did decide to cut it. Then you'd have to pay for the gold setting on top of that. In the end, I decided to have the pre-cut topaz (the one from the bucket in a plastic baggie) set into a pendant. I was already in for $60 for the bucket, so why not? I paid $120 for that. A sucker is born every minute. That day I was definitely a sucker, but I had fun.
