Clean and bright store, but I find a lot of the prices excessive. I try to shop only when I have a coupon or items are discounted.

Hosted my daugther's birthday party here. They got to do crafts led by a staff member. They had a lot of fun with the theme (you get to pick) and the staff member had great energy and was very engaging. Would definitely recommend!

Easy shopping experience. Could organize check out a bit better. No rhyme or reason to a line up. Mostly self checkouts so that's a bit if a negative. Great prices.
