KSS is a classic Etown Oddment. Open to all (no membership or professional affiliation required),…read moredespite initial impressions of the location, it's really just your average retail location for a selection of school supplies that is unexpected and appreciated. Yeah, I know that's not what it looks like from the outside, but really...it's ok to pull up and go in. Staff are friendly! They carry classroom supplies (including posters, maps, and educational materials, as well as classroom decorations: bulletin borders, decorative paper, and much more) that lots of folks would recognize on sight. Stock is well beyond that part of the aisle Staples dedicates to similar products. They also stock classroom-sized supplies (low count crayon multipacks and the like), of course. Things like kits to teach counting, time - telling, currency, etc., particularly where physical items are useful for lesson explanation abound. Planners, organization tools / items, and other 'adulting for educators' items (some of which are easily re-purposed for others in helping professions) are available. I've been a periodic visitor since about 1997 - back when I regularly purchased classroom decoration type-stuff. These days I only visit to find unique papergoods or when I need mass quantities of items one would find in a classroom. Prices are fine: not discount, but not exceptionally high, even for the area and especially when compared to limited locally available chains like Staples.

Me and my second oldest daughter stopped in here the other day to browse for possible Christmas presents. While we didn't purchase anything it was a fun place to browse. Slightly cluttered but that's ok as it means they just have a large inventory of options. Pricing wise I'd say they are on the high end a tad for our liking. I'm able to find likewise items in louisville or online a tad bit cheaper. However they are located in an extremely popular small town/touristy shopping area so I understand the slight increases. The workers here were extremely nice and helpful and give you the small country town welcome you would expect. Overall a very cool store. Just because we didn't find anything on this trip does not mean we will not come back and purchase in the future.

Everyone can find an idea. They also have cocktail slushy drinks...yummy! With samples. My mom and I both bought two packs. I also splurged a little, and bought a piece that just spoke to me. She kept calling me to buy her, that my home needed to be her new home. :) Whatever I needed to say to make it ok to buy. Large painting in a beautiful frame. Love it! Can't wait to go back and find my next treasures!
