Looking for toys in Old Sac? You'll certainly find them here!…read more I had family visiting from out of town and we decided to wander through Old Sac and browse some of the stores. G Willikers was a very fun shop, and if you have kiddos in your group they're going to be amazing AND they're definitely going to want something or many somethings. They have a good variety with items at different price points and newer and older toys. I liked that they has a little Old Sac flair with polished rocks and other California and Sacramento items that are great as souvenirs or gifts for tourists. It was very busy when we stopped in, so a bit overwhelming and claustrophobic, but that's the holiday season in Old Sac for you.

They are both behind the counter so you will have to ask the worker if you'd want to see them up close! The smiskis were 15 dollars and the calico critters were 13 dollars which are kinda on the pricier side but I was still happy to get my hands on them! They have dozens of other blind boxes around the store and behind the cash register too! Love this toy store hehe

So many unique items - gag gifts, naughty gifts, a whole glow in the dark section, T-shirts, magnets, jewelry - you name it! They have a whole Hello Kitty section, a mushroom themed section and even an Alien themed section, just to name a few. You can find it all and so much more at Evangeline's - it's really an amazing store! I could spend so much time looking at every section and item. Most items are fairly priced, but as with most small businesses, a lot of stuff is sometimes on the pricy side. Don't even get me started on their incredible 3 store costume mansion that is now open year round! It's a must see as well! Staff is friendly and helpful! Check them out!

If you're looking for it, it's behind the Philz Coffee in the Ice Blocks area. There's a parking lot right next to it, but if that lot is full there are plenty of parking options nearby. Once you're in the right area you'll see Strapping right away. They usually have a sandwich board outside with something fun written on it and they have eye catching rainbow signs as well. I think this location may be the smallest, but it's packed with fun items and always has something fun and new to look at. You can find a variety of local items as well as some from small businesses as well as popular gift brands. We love smelling all the Voluspa candles here to find our favorite scents. The staff is always really friendly and they let you take your time looking around. It's hard not to walk out with an item or two each time you visit. This is a spot I end up bringing friends and out of town guests if we're grabbing food on R street or nearby at Midtown Spirits and we even walked here from the newly opened Journey to the Dumpling while we waited for a table to kill some time. It's such a fun store.

They have a whole wall of cards and supplies for gifts/wrapping, a kids area with lots of little toys, stuffed animals and novelty items, home goods, sauces, decorations, and a lot more. The staff is very welcoming as well, they even welcomed our dog in since he's well behaved. You can find some great items and they're typically priced right around what you'd find them at elsewhere. I've been able to find some great niche items that I couldn't find elsewhere.

There is also an area with collections of art. Sadly we weren't able to look at the art section because it was closed off. According to a worker we asked, the person in charge was there to open the area, but was nowhere to be found though we waited a while. It was the middle of a spring break weekday. A stop here offers a whole lot of fun & amusing things to see.

They carry video games from a plethora of consoles. They also have collectibles, box/collector sets, videos, etc. Long story short, I left with a pile of goodies. I thought the store was spacious to walk around with other people around. The displays were great. I liked how they converted an old grocery store veggie stand into a display on the right side. The only bummer is the tape and stickers used on the merchandise. I bought some mint in box items and the sticker price tag was so hard to peel off. It left a very bad sticky residue. I was able to clean it off most of the items. But, I worried that the paper boxes would be damaged if I used a solution. The staff was super friendly and answered all of our questions. I enjoyed the little lounge area in the front right while waiting for friends to checkout.
