Proceeds from the sales help to create more jobs as well as lifetime educational and enrichment programs. Every sock you buy funds support, training, and skills development that helps a person with intellectual and developmental disability find and keep a job they love that pays a dignified wage".

Want socks with cars, or trucks, or planes, or every creature that creepeth on the land and sea? You can get them here. Sizes run from adult all the way down to little kids. We bought some cute socks for our grand-children (with dinosaurs and ice cream cones) for ten bucks. It's a real "feel good" store on so many levels.

Phil and Chris were so accommodating and made the process so easy and fun! We were able to bring our own drinks and snacks and decorate the space for ourselves. We were all given instructions for the candle making by Chris and he was so helpful every step of the way during the 90 minute session. We enjoyed smelling all the different oils and were able to mix the scents for our candles all while mingling and having a good time. After making the candles we also had the option to stamp the lids with a mold and I loved it!! The class was so worth it and we all left happy!! This place was a perfect girls night out. I highly recommend this experience for anyone who is looking for something new and exciting to do.

Every step is explained and demonstrated and each person in our party received individual time and attention to make sure everything went smoothly. By far the best part of the experience was our candle making guru, Katie, who helped us every step of the way with patience, care, attention, and humor. Katie was by far the best part of the class and we are so thankful we got to do this experience with her help and guidance. What a fun day!

They were super busy that day, but when I arrived, the owners were friendly and courteous.

I really appreciated Tracy's suggestions to add white lisianthus to the mix, which really enhanced the bouquet. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and would totally go back for future special occasions. Thank you House of Flora!

"It must be closing time in California They must be shuttin'…read moredown the sunset bars" (Luke Bryan) So, I'm not sure about California, but it's definitely "closing time" for the Hallmark store in Connecticut's Westfarms Mall. In fact, the closing bell will ring on Monday January 27, when the doors will be locked for good. It's always a sad thing to see something we've been so familiar with for such a long time go away. We visited yesterday and the store is half emptied of stock and many of their fixtures and display cases were marked "sold". We saw some very deep discounts of up to 50-80% off on greeting cards, gift wrap, clothing, stuffed animals, home decor, ornaments and collectibles. We picked up a few sympathy cards reduced from $2 to $0.50 and a very nice Hallmark Pumpkin and Brown Butter candle reduced from $19.99 to $5. They have a pretty good deal on random greeting cards and envelopes at ten for a buck. So, if you want to go and check out the few remaining bones at the store, now's your chance. But be warned, you have just six days left to do so.

This was our first visit to Newington's Ollie's, and we scored a fantastic deal. I am the Committee Chair for a convention next month, and one of the participation activities for the conventioneers will be assembling kits to donate to a Boston charity for children in need. We are set on the school supply side, but we are still a little short on the socks and underwear side for 50 boys and girls. So, when I saw a "15% off" email from Ollie's, it seemed like a divine sign to make a pilgrimage to the new Ollie's in Newington. And guess what we found? How about 5-packs of boy's underwear marked down to $2.99? BEFORE our 15% discount. Thank you, Lord Ollie. Ollie's was stocked to the gills and very neatly shelved. We bought this eclectic mix of goods: a big bag of Dot's pretzels, five boxes of K Cup coffees, a bottle of shampoo, a jar of pickled zucchini, a jar of salsa, and 20 of the aforementioned underwear 5-packs for just a shocking $88. Ollie's is a fun store to browse around in, and today we made out like bandits.
