I work in Milford, MA and was driving around on my lunch break yesterday when I noticed a sign for…read morea shop called Bitchie Buddha Artisan Gift & Boutique. I was immediately interested because of the name of the shop and also because I love checking out gift shops and supporting small businesses. It was towards the end of my lunch break so I didn't have the time to check it out, but went on their website and was very impressed by it so I made it a point to stop by today. The store is tucked away in a plaza with other stores so there is plenty of parking. When I entered the store, I was immediately greeted by the owner, Sharon, who was very kind, helpful, inspirational, and super down to earth. She told me the store was just opened last month so she is still in the process of getting merchandise for it. I would not have known if she didn't tell me as there were plenty of cute items available for purchase throughout the store. She gave me a little tour of the store and showed me the various different items that she had for sale without ever being pushy. She explained that she tries to sell things that are locally made which I absolutely love. We talked quite a bit and I found her journey to be very inspiring. Without having any knowledge or experience of owning and running a business, she took the risks that come along with it to follow her passion and do what it is that she loves. The store itself is very cute. The decor is clean and refreshing. She has various different items for sale including home decor, gifts, jewelry, pet items, candles, etc. Being a vegan, I was very pleased to see that she also had some vegan items for sale such as vegan leather handbags and vegan chapsticks/ lip glosses. I highly recommend this place if you are looking to buy a gift for someone or even to treat yourself. I left there with some candles and home decor. She makes her own candles which smell amazing! 5 stars!

Their sandwiches are hearty and well portioned, their hot foods - oh my - and their soups are so delicious. Prices are reasonable and the staff is great. I'm not sure what it is about Oliva's - maybe it's the vibe I get in there that reminds me of the Italian spots in Newton (places we visited reguarly growing up), but it just feels good going in there and I enjoy everything I try! Always worth the stop! And get the mini cannolis! NO regrets there, either!

Local chain/franchise that specializes in active playthings and educational toys. The stores have a…read moregood variety of stuff. Three stars for variety and quantity. My issues with the stores are the unpleasant staff and the return policy. The return policy: If you have a receipt and the item is unopened, is straightforward. If you have opened the box and the item does not have a manufacturer defect, then they will not accept the item back. Opening the item makes it unable to be resold. Only with a manufacturer defect will they take an open item back for a refund. So, if your child does not like the toy or you just are not happy with your choice, you are out of luck. I hate to say it, do your research and purchase the item somewhere that has a less restrictive return policy even if slightly more expensive. Not having the hassle of dealing with The Learning Express will be worth it in the end.

Thank goodness for this local retailer - I have tried the big box stores as well as Amazon for many many things . But toys are different - how do you really know if it's a winner ?

So hats off to Learning Express - sales people are exceptional and the prices are reasonable. Shop their great sales - shop local. Support small business. I am glad I do- and so are my grandkids!
