“This Five Below location is great except they've had the back part of the store blocked off for quite a while since November of 2022 since the store opened and the location is almost always out of stock of things and has the same item selection but other than that I really love Five Below you can find things under 5 dollars and upper and service her is great except they close the self checkouts and people have to assist you checking out which I don't understand why if it's self-checkout!”
“I love this place! Great selection of comics, and if they don't have what you're looking for they'll order it for you. It's also a great place to hang out and play games, and they have sodas and such to buy for cheap if you're hanging there all day!”
“I was running late to get a birthday gift for a friend and drove by this place! I saw the front display and knew they would have great options! I knew I needed a card and a candle. I quickly found the cards and while looking Lauren came up to me and asked if I needed help! I said yes I need a candle she showed me around and when I couldn’t decide she asked her teammate Faith. She came over and helped me decide with a well thought out explanation on why I should get one candle over the other! I am sure that my friend will love the card and candle! Great shop lots of options and super friendly staff! Also noticed an epic amount of epic kids clothes!”

“Awesome family owned toy shop. Wife and I purchased post cards and stamps during our vacation. Head on in with your kids to get some toys to dissect them from their tablet.”
“Used to frequent the location in 4S before they became a boxing gym. This location is always busy and has all the toys a child can imagine and more. It's easy to get in and out from and items are reasonably priced. This time around my son wanted a police car. How fitting was it that they charged $5.0 for it!? Lol Be back soon when I'm in the area.”

“From small toys to scooters, this place has everything. Great place to find a variety of toys and activities for you or someone you love. The store employees are courteous and helpful. They will assist you if you need help.”
“There are not many independent toy stores left but Geppetto’s really throws back to the bygone era of my childhood. Great selection of really neat toys. They have everything from big brands like Lego and Mattel products, to more unique and mindful and specialized toys that help develop the mind. Very spendy. Nice people!”

“Legoland is so fun! The Dinocoaster was everyone’s favorite ride. The park hours are great for little kids and it helped us not feel like we weren’t missing out on anything. I highly recommend staying at the Legoland Hotel. It’s such a unique experience and was much more relaxing not having to worry about driving and parking there in the morning. We bought the middle tier reserve and ride service for my husband and one of our kids since my other two kids didn’t meet a lot of the height requirements for the more popular rides.”

“This shop is awesome!! This is the biggest lego store in LegoLand, so definitely stop by! They have sets for beginners as well as experienced builders, and of every different topic. Things are expensive, but the same prices as every store in the park. Kind employees, and awesome that you can buy a huge reusable bag for only $2.”
“This place needs a five star review I went to my local game store for my son and I wanted to get him a game it was sonic boom shattered crystal for 3Ds and when I gave it to him he loved it and I am so thankful thankful for GameStop to show me this awesome game for my son.”
“You can't put a price on memories and Magical Child is still a must-stop for our family despite the fact none of us are children anymore! After 30 years, I love how I can still count on the thoughtful curation of eco-friendly products and organic textiles in a local boutique (I am a tactile shopper).
Besides, where else in an era of surcharges for bags, gift-wrapping, no cash accepted, and detached electronic check-out kiosks can you find concierge personal shoppers to help with that special gift for the little person in your life?
Their flexibility in store policy for new moms was much appreciated when a friend needed to exchange a new-born outfit that didn't fit anymore. So happy they have stayed magical!!”
