When I went in, I asked whether they had a handheld, plastic roulette game with a silver button to spin the metal wheel inside. I figured there was a 99% chance they didn't have it because I never see it anymore, but the saleslady was very helpful and knew what I was talking about, but was disappointed for me that they didn't have it. She was very nice about it. The other items are typical gift store fare: postcards, shirts, very nice caps, glasses, and novelties. The prices seemed decent.

What a really cool store that has a lot of different products across different companies…read more They carry a lot of small accessories and plushy and toys for kids that are different than other big box stores. We visited a few times and the kids always find something that they like. It is a little pricey here, but I get that some of the stuff is imported and some of the stuff is licensing that you're paying for. The unfortunate constant here is the lack of customer service. Rarely are you greeted and if you have any issue with the purchase at the end, you're made to feel like it's an inconvenience to them to fix the transaction. We've unfortunately had this happen a few times. Will continue to shop because our kids like it, but this place definitely needs training. It seems like customer service has been lost in many places nowadays.

(Raising eyebrows now :D) That being said... it's kind of expensive for what it is. Some items feel like they should be a couple bucks cheaper. I've definitely had moments where I looked at the price tag and thought, "Wait, what?" Still, the store is clean, organized, and the aesthetic is very satisfying. Great place for gifts or if you're just in the mood to treat yourself or your little ones. Just beware that cute doesn't always mean cheap! Haha!

(You can find their class schedule on the web and I would definitely say that is worth a look-see!) There is parking right in front of the store and it is just off S Virginia St, easy to find. The reason for the three stars has to do with inventory. This is not a large shop so one has to consider space available for merchandise. However, there was not much of a selection and the prices were fairly high. I realize that it is becoming harder to run a brick and mortar store front everyday, but I found the merchandise to be "stale" and dated. (ie: no latest tarot decks, books, etc.) I also felt like if I were to return in a month or so, it would look much as it did the day I visited, with the same merchandise in the same place. It may be that "Mystic Rose" concentrates more on the classes and readings and such, but that's not why I came. I miss the well-stocked metaphysical shops of the past and would love to see a sample tarot deck or book before I purchase it... I guess those days are gone.

I had time to peruse the selections thoroughly. I particularly enjoyed the large selection of crystals, and the availability of guides and books that explain how to use the crystals. I ended up buying a hunk of Angelite, and I'm happy that I did. Their selection of divination cards is small, but, again, a nice variety. In particular, I was pleased to see that they carry the Animal Wisdom Cards. I complimented the store owner on this, and we had a nice conversation about the uses and power of this particular deck. There are a few more items upstairs. There is a large second room that is used for classes. I only had a few short days in Nevada, which precluded taking any classes. If I were in Reno for a longer visit, I would definitely want to sample a class or a reading. Small, yes, but a solid, representative selection of various items. You'll never find everything in the world here, but you'll get a nice variety and/or introduction.

Oh the flea market... Be prepared to be transported to…read moreanother place. Filled with music, fruits and vegetables, tamarind candy, a parking lot full of yard sale like stands, and the best damn taco truck in town...El Gordo... El Rancho Swap Meet, AKA, the Flea Market is 'The place to be' on a Sunday morning in my opinion! ... (With an emphasis on morning! It's not as crowded) My first trip to this magical place was Easter Sunday with my BFF Sara, raving about how amazing the place is. The music was fun, the electronic bull bucking and the whole place was alive, thriving with people. I have since become addicted, making a return appearance to every single swap meet since then! I can't get enough! I have a system down... We start by walking through all the sale lots. People out there selling ALL KINDS of things. We usually find some old movie we haven't seen in decades, or stumble across new toys for our son... We happened across a brand new black and decker children's work bench retailing for 50$ everywhere else...walked away with it for 7$!!!! He LOVES it!! That was such a steal... Then we make our way over to the fruits and vegetables... Like a farmers market, the Flea Market always has some really cool things. I came across a Durian fruit and tried it! That was quite the opportunity... (As I have only seen these fruits on food network television shows haha!) After getting some fruit/Veggie/ or nuts of some kind... It's time for candy! The candy stand is WORTH it. I usually get tamarind everything... And some Lucas/Mango suckers. I can't get enough of their little jelly cups too... Hmm candy... Finally, we finish our day at the Flea Market with tacos from El Gordo Taco Truck. I've looked them up on every platform... and I just can't find them. I don't think they're on Yelp themselves and I don't think they even have a Facebook page because I have failed in every attempt to find anything on them! Sigh. That being said... They have THE BEST fricken tacos in town.. The ones I like the best, I can't pronounce. Or spell... Champichanos maybe???? I know, that's wrong... But they'll know what you mean... Asada Tacos with Chorizo and Nopales... And the grill is stationed right outside the truck filled with meats, peppers and cactus...It's my literal heaven! The guy manning the grill hands me a grilled jalapeño for my five 'champ' tacos, I add cilantro, onion, hot sauce and grab some limes... Get a horchata from inside the concession area...and I'm in actual taco truck heaven... These guys really have it down. Apparently they park on terminal sometimes... Just look for a big orange taco truck!! (If you find this truck anywhere other than the swap meet on a Saturday or Sunday... You've found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow you lucky little devil you...) I would actually say that sometimes, I get myself up out of bed Sunday Morning with the Tacos as my reason why because I can't ever find their truck anywhere else!! Thanks to El Rancho Swap Meet, Sunday-Family Day at the Flea Market is now my husband, son and I's favorite thing to do together. We look forward to it and those tacos every weekend.
