Not only does it sell special teddy bears which gives the place extra Pester Power kudos (warning - don't... take... the... children), they have special gift bags of retro sweets separated by decade. That's right. You can delve back into a particular era via your tastebuds - Sherbet Fountains, gobstoppers, Black Jacks and Fruit Salads, candy cigarettes... what more could you want? It's tooth-rotting time travel! Enamel be damned, who's afraid of the big bad dentist? Not me. Well, actually I am. Anyone who's ever had traintrack braces at an impressionable age will understand this. But here be sweets that are worth the lecture, the wrath and the impending drill. Sugar never tasted so good. Treat yourselves!
