The last time I visited Toys Time Forgot in Canal Fulton, I literally had to buy more memory for my…read morephone--I took that many pictures. It's just one of those places where the nostalgia hits you like a wave. Every aisle is filled with treasures from your childhood: toys you had, toys you wanted but couldn't afford, and even some you totally forgot existed until they were right there in front of you. I told a friend recently that if I had a million dollars to spend only on toys, I'd still leave that store with a wishlist. It's that packed with incredible finds. They have toys dating all the way back to the 1920s, through the golden eras of the '50s, '60s, '70s, and into the '80s and '90s--the stuff we now lovingly call "vintage" or "retro." From Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Star Wars to Marvel Comics, classic board games, and massive collectible statues, the selection is wild. I'm doing a couple of photo dumps just to show people how deep the nostalgia runs there. It's more than a store--it's an experience. If you're within driving distance, I highly recommend making a day of it. Explore the beautiful town of Canal Fulton, grab some food, and then spend time walking through this amazing shop. You won't regret it. And if you're not local--good news--they ship nationwide (possibly even worldwide). Right now they've got a spring sale: 20% off most items, and even 10% off statues and busts. Plus, they're gearing up for a huge Free Comic Book Day event, with a block party, vendors, and performers. Definitely worth checking out. Keep an eye out for flyers about NEO Con while you're there, and block out some time--you're going to need it!

They were patient with me, gave me an amazing price, and even mounted and appraised the diamond into the ring I bought elsewhere. It's family owned and they'll treat you like family when you go see them. Thanks guys! She said yes by the way and LOVES the ring! Jerry

I cannot say enough awesome things about this place…read more I have slowly been collecting broken jewelry over the past year or so - I have a pretty bad habit of tugging on my necklaces when I go out, annnnnd then, surprisingly enough, somehow they seem to just break! I knew the repairs to my four necklaces were pretty easy, plus these weren't expensive necklaces, so I was dreading going into a jewelry store and paying ridiculous amounts of money to fix a chain. I emailed around to my coworkers, and one suggested the Bead Boutique. Gathering my poor broken necklaces up, I headed over there one lunch break. The store is, perhaps unsurprisingly, filled with beads. There are also tables set up so that you can make your own jewelry, if you so desire. I showed my necklaces to one of the workers, who promptly got out her tools and went to work, assuring me it wouldn't be more than ten minutes. I dutiful wandered around the store - I had zerooooooo idea there were so many kinds of beads. The lady fixed all but one of my necklaces in about 5 minutes, and then took nearly an hour on the last one. I was getting a little irritated and a little tired of beads, and needed to get back to work (just wait, there is a reason for the 5 stars!). Finally, she was done - apologizing for how long it took and carefully polishing the necklace. She then rang me up. $2.92. That's right folks, for one hour of work and four fixed necklaces, I paid less than $3...and that was just for the two sterling silver beads needed to fix one of my pieces. Three of my necklaces were repaired for FREE - and they offered to teach me how! Stunned, I asked if I COULD pay them more (I know) - she turned me down. Apparently there is a $5/hour labor fee, but she said since it was her fault, she wasn't charging me. This fee really only comes into play when they're making jewelry for you. I will never go anywhere else again to fix my jewelry. The Bead Boutique also offers a lot of beading classes, and every Friday has a free class (you just buy the beads). I'm definitely tempted, if for nothing else than because they helped me out so much.
