I'm glad she talked me into it because their store has some fantastic stuff. I loved walking around and browsing... the store is really big. I thought it was just the first floor but there's an entire second floor that's even larger. That second floor has a ton of children's stuff; books, toys, stuffed animals, art, and so on. There are also lots of books for adults, and cards, and jewelry, and t-shirts, and so many things. I bought several books for my little one, and there are some toys I think she'd like that I may pick up another time and some really cute stuffed animals as well. I'm not sure if the woman that greeted us was a docent or a paid staff member but she was so welcoming. She's the one who pointed us to the second floor that we didn't know existed and let us know they had kid stuff. Then she welcomed us back when we got downstairs, and told us about the MCA kids days and said she couldn't wait to see us again.

Baseball is better in Chicago. I was greeted when I walked in and I stepped into and didn't know where to get the pickup at so I asked the greeter, but I think she was a regular employee or manager who was just watching the door since it was like 20 min til closing. and she helped me grab the item! She brought it to me in front and I didn't have to lift a finger. Very helpful experience in my book! I saw someone brought their dog in which is nice because I was looking for dog friendly places to visit with my pup. The items are pricey but they are Chicago tailored and I like that.

Instead of bringing home a typical souvenir, I got to create something completely personalized and unique to me. The process was fun, the staff was incredibly helpful, and there were so many options to make the hat your own. I loved leaving with not only a custom hat I'll actually wear, but also a fun memory from my trip.

Most people got gryffindor, a few got ravenclaw and hufflepuff, but there was barely any slytherin. Poor slytherin. People don't cheer for slytherin lol It's busy and pricey, as expected, even for a Tuesday afternoon. Feels like most people are just window shopping and enjoying looking at what they have. Checkout lines were nonexistent when I went, even though the store was busy. There were a ton of employees around to help, but most of them didn't really seem to be doing much. Regardless of if you get anything though, it was fun to look around for like 30 minutes.

They also sold desserts and butter beer ice cream but we didn't try. We loved they had cup cleaning stations to rinse out cups.

I say only $40, bc I plan on neatly tearing out several of the pages & framing them. It's such a beautiful book. I bought a Chicago recycled tote bag (that can be folded, & apparently used to be a water bottle!), a Cloud Bar coffee mug (bc it holds way more than 8 ounces & is such a beautiful ombré blue), & a Chicago photography book (the last one available for the night). The clothing items are priced fairly high, the hoodies are about $60-80. If you really want some high quality and low cost Chicago apparel, hit up the 24-hr Walgreens that's only a few blocks down the street. They have shirts, mugs, etc for like $10-20. HOWEVER! I gave this place 5 stars bc of the employee who helped me w the book. It wasn't priced (w a tag/sticker) but it was also the very last one on the shelf - it was found on display, so it wasn't even on the shelf. She noticed it wasn't a new edition so she actually called Cloud Bar (at the top floor) to see if they had any extra copies so that I could get a new one. Her taking the time & effort to do this without me even mentioning anything or asking her to do that was exceptionally thoughtful & kind. I presume they sell this same book at the Cloud Bar at the top of the building. She was on the phone for a bit, but they didn't have any new editions for me. I honestly am in LOVE with the book - it's absolutely stunning, the photography is so beautiful and will forever serve as a reminder of why I love Chicago so much & why I want to make this city my home either for medical school or for my life after that. I attached photos of the book. I'm so sorry I didn't get your name (the employee at the front desk), but I really appreciate your hospitality.
