Fudge
Kathy V.

A cute little sweets and candy store in downtown Monroe, Wisconsin. Exactly the type of shop you would expect to find in a small, tourist town square. We stopped in after a visit to Minhas Distillery and Brewery just around the corner. It is probably a stroke of genius that they remain open for another hour or two after Minhas closes...get the people doing the trifecta (a winery too!) to get some sweets munching on before driving back to...wherever. They have weird sodas, all the sweets you could ever imagine, ice cream, fudge, and fancy gourmet popcorn. Among ourselves, we got a bag of popcorn and a pound and a half of fudge (three different flavors) and enjoyed a brief browsing of of the candy! I am certain that if I found myself back in Monroe, I would stop in again. Some particular highlights though: - Buy a pound of fudge, get another 1/2 pound free - With a Yelp check in, you get $1 off a bag of fancy popcorn - Cool, throwback-y type sweets - Very friendly and patient staff

Swiss Colony - Exactly how delivered, sealed in plastic (so they don't get wet!)

I admit, the quality on many of these products are good. But there is a deception at work, and that…read moreis photographs of the product that make them look two to four times bigger than they are. Swiss colony puts the net weight into the description, but that does not put into perception the actual size of the items that you or your gift recipients will be receiving. Take the summer sausages, for example. About five ounces each. The pictures make them look like a foot long, but in reality they fit in the palm of your hand. Yesterday, I was shopping for cookies for a friend. They only had raspberry-filled center cookies. $30 for one pound of cookies! What? plus another $12 for shipping puts it at $42 a pound. They're like those Pepperidge Farm cookies in the white bags that are about $7.00 each. I have an $800 line of credit with them, but The Swiss Colony and all their subsiderary companies, like Seventh Avenue, Montgomery Ward, Midnight Velvet, Country Door, Monroe & Main, Ashro, Ginny's, The Tender Filet, Midwest Catalog Brands, including The Wisconsin Cheeseman and AmeriMark, are a terrible ripoff. Most gift sites are expensive, but The Swiss Colony exemplifies "shrinkflation". Their products always look much bigger than they are, which is the number one complaint even on their own website.

Swiss Colony sends out a beautiful catalogue, and forms noting how easy it is to resend gifts from…read morelast year providing options to do so. Their marketing dept is completely misaligned with their technology. After spending 1 hour on-line, with a phone robot, and customer service it became clear- It was TECHNOLOGICALLY IMPOSSIBLE to simply resend a gift with a message through any of them. On-line reorder does not carry the gift message anywhere. Imagine a 100 year old "holiday gift" company being unable to attach a message to a reorder! Note to Swiss Colony: your customers don't want to reorder gifts anonymously! Even live agentdidn't have access to prior gift/messages or items. I had to log onto my account twice to provide her items I ordered last year (I had on-line access; but customer service didn't!). After all of that I had to manually walk through the entire order from scratch again. Harry and David offers seamless reordering with nearly a click of the button, not an hour of wasted time.
