I remember when I was in college, I used to go to Spencer's to get gag gifts or any kind of outrageous stuff for a party. Today, Spencer's still sells really off the wall stuff as well as other main stream items. The back of the store also sells erotica items for those looking for them. This store in the Broward mall, like many others is always very crowded and full of inventory, it almost makes it hard to walk around all the stuff they have. Still you can find board games, incense, posters, fun candy items, funky jewelry, t-shirts and more.
Spencer Gifts was founded in 1947 in Easton, Pennsylvania by Max Spencer Adler as a mail-order catalog that sold an assortment of novelty merchandise. In 1963, Spencer Gifts opened its first retail store in the Cherry Hill Mall in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, where it operates to this day.
After opening approximately 450 stores under the name Spencer Gifts, Adler sold Spencer Gifts to entertainment conglomerate MCA in 1967. In 2003, Spencer's Gifts was completely rebranded after being put under new management, and with the change become known as just Spencer's. read more
