We just needed a handful of items. We got what we needed. The store was clean. Laid out well. And -…read moregasp! - they had humans operating a couple of the checkout lanes. WINNING!!!! That isn't so common these days. And it will always be my preference. Selection and value were the same as any other Target. The service was a bit better in that they had humans working some of the registers.

After several weeks of desperation trying to find the perfect Christmas present for my three-year…read moreniece, there it was. A tiny, shiny Spyder ski suit for a three-tear old. Mountain Kids is a godsend at the Snowshoe Village. They cater to kids, period, and their offerings range from the upscale to the quotidian. It is also a good place to try if you have a real small frame and need form-fitting ski underwear, given that most retailers are now catering to the more portly and larger American body type. Also one of the few places where you can get safety gear (goggles, helmets, etc) sized to the under 15 crowd, an important item in a ski resort. Their location two doors from Starbucks and overlooking the Village at Snoshoe is ideal. Besides ski clothing, they also have an extensive selection of toys and other youngster necessities. I'm glad that Intrawest and Snowshoe chose to open a kids' store, lending an even more family atmosphere to the resort.

I've known for a while that there's a thrift store somewhere in the area run by people from my…read morechurch. Last week, I finally realized it was the one I pass by almost every day. (I'm a bit slow on the uptake. don'tjudgeme.) Hours are as follows: M-R: 9 am - 5 pm F: 9 am - 2 pm (3 pm?) Sat: closed (church!) Sun: 12 pm - 4:30 p.m. I was in the market for some warm jackets/coats, because I really only had one warm jacket (yep, one) to keep me alive through the winter, and what if something happened to it!?!? I've also basically been wearing my shoes into the ground, so I figured a pair of boots might be nice for the winter. And yes, retail therapy is a thing. There's a rack out on the porch with free clothes (just don't take the hangers), and the store is somewhat divided into two sections. The left side has mostly kids' clothes and a bunch of warm jackets and the side you enter from has all other clothes + shoes. There are books and various types of food to the right. :O My friend happened to be working there the day before I was planning on going, so I told him what I was looking for and he texted me pictures and prices. Twas pretty awesome. There were a lot of wool jackets that I would have loved to get, but I was way too short and/or shrimpy for them. This wasn't too much of a problem though since I found plenty of other things. :D! For $34.98, I obtained the following: -Red heels that I can actually walk in -Super comfy dark brown heels that I can wear to clinic (yay!) -Leather ankle boots (black) -Leather knee-high boots (black) -Super warm blue winter jacket -Super comfy beige hoodie -Super warm maroon vest -Leather jacket (originally from Yarid's, which I cannot afford) (I also picked up a free sweater from the porch.) Basically, the shoes/regular clothes were $2-3, the jackets were $5 and the leather jacket was $10. I am rather ecstatic over my finds! :] Everyone there is super nice/friendly. Definitely stop by if you're looking for great deals! Cash or check only! [Edit] In response to the review below me (apparently, everywhere you go = a 1 star rating)...in what way do they "do absolutely nothing for the community" and how are they greedy people? They foster kids who have been pulled from drug-addicted homes, host free cooking classes for the community to teach them how to make healthy + delicious meals, operate a school and raise money for families who have fallen on hard times, which is a lot more than I can say for a lot of people out there. Please don't slander others when you have no legitimate reasoning behind it.

They do absolutely nothing for the community. And during the growing season the place looks like…read moreover grown abandon lot. They're just greedy people, it's the holiday season and they don't even sponsor any poor families, they're greedy!!!! but remember you reap what you sow.........
