“Michaels is the go to place for craft supplies. I'd give it 5 stars but it seems like it's not as full as it used to be. But all retail shops seem to be struggling a little bit. Show your love to keep stores like this open!”
“We ordered new outside banners and had a fantastic experience. Lukas worked very hard to make sure the banners were exactly what we wanted. The banners look terrific and we are so pleased with the amazing service Display Sales offered.”
“For several years I've bought, sold and traded with Minnesota Gold and Silver exchange. I trust them completely. I enjoy learning from their knowledge and recommendations. It's a fun experience. KEEP STACKING!!”
“I had a neglected pen at home and cleaned it with rubbing alcohol. Ink would not flow. The very nice young man at recycler advised me to never use rubbing alcohol again. He cleaned the nib with ultrasound and recommended better ink cartridge. I now have a restored perfectly working pen that I need to treat with greater respect. The helper (owner's son) could not have been nicer. Great customer service. I think his fingers are permanently stained with ink smudges”
“If you have bills and coins that are old, rare, unique or otherwise valuable. This is one of the best places that can be trusted to buy and sell with. Stopped here for the first time, straight forward dealing, great customer service. Really interesting place, especially for coin collectors out there.”
“Thanks for educating me on the many coins I brought into your store. I was definitely mislead by what I read on the internet. I am very impressed with your family history and the business you operate. Your store is easy to get to with parking right in front. (So glad I did not have to go to a building.)I highly recommend anyone needing to sell or get educated on old coins, Mont Blanc pens, bullion, general gold or silver, to contact Crystal Coin & Collectibles. It’s a fun store to just stop by and look around too!!”
“Fan HQ is a great store. They host autograph signings, most of which are paid, but they also sometimes have free signings (they just hosted a free event with Louie Varland from the Twins). This place is the most reliable one around to host autograph signings and also functions day-to-day as a sports memorabilia and apparel store. Staff is really friendly and welcoming, and the owner Shawn is very personable. They have some Fan HQ exclusive items, such as T-shirts and limited signed and numbered memorabilia. I hope this place stays open forever, as chances to meet local (and sometimes National) athletes is really fun.”

12731 Wayzata Blvd Suite 2245, Minnetonka“Knowledgeable staff and lots of variety.Went in to browse and found a couple fun nerdy games. Also didn't know Arkham Horror was a 1-4 player game and that there is a card game version!”
“I’m and out.. no issues whatsoever beside those in the parking lot, but that’s not really Hobby Lobby’s job to control or direct people how to drive or watch out for others. The cashiers are wonderful and I am able to get the help I need when I have a hard time finding something..”
12 - 8PM
3015 Utah Ave S, St Louis Park“What a gem of a shop! Great place for gamers and stocked with all your gaming needs. I'm a comic book guy and this place is a sweet little honey hole. A well curated collection and a wonderful staff this is friendly and knowledgeable. Prices are on point and you can choose your titles for your very own pull box.”
“Probably my fave card shop in the metro. It's very cozy and welcoming. Huge variety of everything. I especially like the sit down area where you have plenty of elbow room to go through stuff, without feeling pressed to buy something or rush through the process. They are also very reasonable in negotiating prices of used items.”
“My sister and I spoke to Karen a cashier today. Not only did she make it a fun shopping experience, she was one of the sweetest people ever. Everyone needs a Karen at their place of work! Great Job Karen”
“It's relocated but remains in the Texa-Tonka shopping center. I miss the old location but with the center's recent emphasis on food I can understand why the store moved. I find it an interesting place to wander around and wonder what some items are. There are barrels of stuff, shelves of things and all sorts of blinking lights, electronic parts, miscellaneous military surplus and mysterious things that I simply cannot identify. Quirky labels (some definitely tongue in cheek), and no shortage of humor. Offers for customers to weigh in on their own take of what somethings might be. Staff has always been helpful. Aisles overflowing with an ever changing selection. Plenty of free parking. Rock bottom prices and you might occasionally find just what you need. The Ax-Man exemplifies the classic aphorism that one person's trash is another's treasure.”
“Friendly staff and generally is usually cleaned up/organized. I don't mind shopping at this location.I took off one star because the parking lot is a little cumbersome, but that is on par for the area.”
10:30AM - 5:30PM
2510 Hillsboro Ave N, Golden Valley“This is a great place to buy or sell sport cards. Nicest people that work there and cheapest price around too! I highly recommend it if you want to buy sport cards!”
10AM - 6PM
908 Mainstreet, Hopkins“The Pokemon card selection is incredible. Been coming here for a long time, even across state lines. There is always something new to see across all different forms of media: Vinyl, Sports, Pokemon…They have great prices and sales all the time and are super helpful!”
“I can find everything I need in this store and it doesn't necessarily need to be for crafting. I've found leather glue for repairing a purse, different markers for marking on fabric and metal. Michael's has it all. Plus they usually have a coupon off at the register! I highly recommend this store!!”
“Running errands around Eden Prairie and stopped by this Michael's to look for a frame. I had the print with me as I wasn't sure of the best way to display it (a papyrus print from Egypt). There were a few options that would have worked, and then I spotted the *perfect* frame! So happy to spend $35 rather than a couple hundred on custom framing. This location has self-checkout lanes, which I didn't have any problems with. The gal at the regular register was standing by and thoughtfully offered me a larger bag for my frame.”
