I saw some cool collectables here, but the prices were just too high. They had a ton of ashtrays from a restaurant I assumed no longer exists, I don't smoke, it would be a nice accessory to a coffee table. However, at $8, I couldn't help but assume they acquired it for no more than $.50. I believe in profit, but some price reveal a greed I'm not comfortable with supporting. Again, you will find some interesting wares here, question is, will you find them affordable. I left empty handed, and I doubt I was alone in that outcome. 1 on pricing, 5 on product. Total score 3

The rings/jewelry is a favorite of the younger clientele. Interesting artifacts. Lots to see. Lady cashier very friendly. Well picked items for sale. Even my husband enjoyed browsing in this store. I don't remember seeing clothing being sold here.

There is always treasure to find here.

They also like a good conversation so it was nice to talk and learn more about the town. At the time they were having a 50% off sale for the whole store excluding the $1 rack they had outside the store. (For a $1, it's already the best deal!) Out of that $1 rack, I was able to put together the cutest outfit and most were like new if not brand new. Also had a lot of nice brand and quality clothes. They have so many unique things for Halloween, and the coolest vintage jackets and bags. Will be my go to spot whenever I drive back down. There's something for everybody here!

The store got a face lift!

Tons of craft items, trinkets, and cute things!

Great Vintage With Incredible Retro-Style!…read more SITREP We were looking for pizza and instead initially wandered into this store only to find some awesome retro-dresses! THE SETUP My galpal Jenner & I were on the way back to Central Washington (after she picked me up at SEATAC), and on our way through Olympia, we got struck with massive hunger cravings for Pizza. As we headed to La Gitana, HOT TODDY crossed out path (or rather, we crossed IT'S path) and we had to wander inside of it once we were *blinded by the light* of all it's colors inside! STYLES & DESIGNS! We were inside a virtual smorgasbord of crazy fabrics & designs! I played guard to the dressing room while Jenner tried on some awesome dresses. I also foraged around for some smaller, more palatable items for a guy to wear and found some pretty cool jackets and socks. THE LOWDOWN After grabbing a couple of dresses, we were ready to go and find our pizza stop (which we did since it was almost next door). Missions Accomplished!

Used to love this place, but just got treated really oddly by the person working the cashier. I…read morealways visit when I'm in town from Los Angeles because I love the cute, quirky vibes. Today I walked in, a white Oly couple a few steps ahead of me. The clerk completely ignored them, but as soon as she saw me she RUSHED out from behind the counter in a panic as if to block my entry, saying "CAN I HELP YOU" in a stressed tone. She only relaxed when she saw my shopping bag from Radiance. I can't think of what would cause such a reaction, except that I am visibly brown. I'd hate to think that someone at such a sweet staple of downtown was racially profiling me. All in all it left a sour taste in my mouth. In over 10 years, I've never been treated this way here.

The Eagles #21 has history dating 100 years- through the beginning of the club's early founding, it's heyday in the 40's and 50's, and through it's slight decline in the 80's and 90's. Since then it has gone through numerous improvements to make it one of the best spots for entertainment and leisure. Decades of live events throughout the 4-level building have brought many different people together from all over the Oly area, and the world. Upstairs is the huge Eagles Grand Ballroom that is used for weekly dances and planned events such as weddings, proms, and recitals. There are performance art classes also available for anyone wanting to learn a type of dance, or drum. In the bottom level of the building is the E-mart. The Eagles houses a thrift store full to the brim of second-hand goods. From designer labeled clothing, to electronics, old VHS and DVDs, furniture, and from dishes and housewares to books and toys. Of course, the ground level is the member's lounge. Boasting the only bar in downtown Olympia to have the NFL ticket, the clubhouse can get any NFL game on it's six flat-screen TVs and projector. The Eagles is also home to the official Brown's Backers football club who meet for every Cleveland Brown game. And the best spot to watch all your Sounders, Mariners, and Seahawks games. Not a football fan? All throughout the week there are daily drink specials (cheapest in town), live music, karaoke, free pool and foosball, pull tabs, a stage and a dance floor and a jukebox, video games, potlucks, and great people enjoying the company at the bar. It is a member's only club, however. Joining is simple. There are yearly dues to being a member, and of course abiding by club rules and aerie bylaws. But they are always accepting more members to join and be a part of a great community of fundraisers who love to party!

Also, contrary to the name, this place is not full of junk! It's actually really well curated with interesting and rare vintage and antique items. As someone who has been in the same business for over 20 years, I've gotta say, this place is impressive and I love the owner's aesthetic! She really knows her stuff. It's unfortunate that people who don't know much about vintage clothing and antiques can be allowed to weigh in with negative reviews about amazing items they consider trash. That's fine, more for the rest of us Fun Junk lovers.
