The front area is reserved for a series of games that you can buy. The back section is where you can play games that you either hit or they have games that you can play.

I shopped there for 7 years, in those 7 years I have had employees forget to ring up half my order where I had to make sure I paid afterwards because the staff was so incompetant, A covers for DC comics floppies (typically 3.99 at the time)were being charged to me as 1 in 25 incentive variant prices (like $24.99), I was charged for products i didn't purchase, and was treated like shit, either because it was me, because I expected people to take pride in their work, or because I was Albanian, or handicapped.

I've scored half off on fake flowers that look real, pots for plants after summer has ended, lots of cute fall decor once Christmas hits, etc. Service is a little bit hard to come by. Cashiers are always busy, and trying to find someone on the floor to ask a question to can be a tough to accomplish. That said, the convenience of always having what you need in stock plus the deals that always happen at this place will always keep me coming back. On my last visit I was in need of a few picture frames, and found exactly what I was looking for to fit my photos at a price not even Amazon could beat.

The manager walked away when I got to him. He said just go to the cashier. I tried to ask him if they would another Santa in the store. So I can pick that 1 up. And he just left without answering me. I feel like that's very rude and disrespectful. At the end of the day, there was no way to resolve this situation They also said they don't sell this Santa smh
