The staff are nice and single bathroom spotless. They have bulk flavored olive oils and vinegars. They don't charge a bottle fee, and when you bring back your bottle, you save $1. The Mojito flavored balsamic vinegar and peach are good. I also like the caramelized garlic olive oil. You can sign up for the reward program and get 100 points and save $5. They also have a punch card, get 9 bottles, and 10th one is free. They have spring and summer events, but now it's early spring.

They also have Pandora jewelry and loads of Vera Bradley bags (if you're into those).

If you visit only one gift shop in the area, this should be the one.

I tried , with No Luck, at: Cub, Kowalski's , Lunds- Byerlys and 2 Scandinavian shops but then I found it online @ The Merry Piglet in Bemidji MN! The Owner, Heidi ( and an assistant) helped me out hugely! I live 4 hours from her Store & I couldn't drive up, so I ordered all 3 packages in stock! This was yesterday @ 4p & She packed them up & rushed to the UPS store & I receive them, Today @ 10a‼ What wonderful Service, She provided because I was getting anxious about not receiving IT in Time! Plus She wrote a friendly note & added a Store Sticker to my order. I will keep their online # nearby & if I ever go Up to Bemidji I will for sure stop in! This Store has Exemplary Service and a Brilliant Owner & Staff and the products are Excellent as well! ThankYou! KH

Are we in heaven?!…read more I'm from out of town and I've been wanting to pop into Lundeen's for a while now with the expectation that it was just a cute little small town stationery shop. No big deal. It looks tiny on the outside, but the further in you go, the more this shop unfolds into a huge emporium of scintillating goodies. When I walked in, there were books. Books?! Gorgeous childrens' books, (millennial) classics I haven't seen for sale in ages (I Spy, The Rainbow Fish, Where's Waldo), there were beautiful cookbooks, chic plant books, educational books, bird books, frog books, books wrapped up in gift paper ready to be someone's surprise read (Blind Date with a Book!), and two little childrens' reading nooks up a couple of stairs at the front of the store! After the books there were games, toys, puzzles, candy, gifts. And then I realized, this place is HUGE. In the back of the store there's a full on Office Depot situation but only the good stuff, plus a print shop. Ink, paper, cardstock, accounting pads, payroll sheets, carbon paper, large poster boards, folders, pens, highlighters, calculators, clips, tacks, and knick knacks. Prismacolor pencils! The good erasers. The good pencil sharpeners. Graph paper. Transfer paper. Sketch pads. Velum! Fine point markers. Like, high end art store stuff. And then. And THEN. I looked to the side of the store and there ANOTHER opening to a jewelry store! And once you go in there, you see an entirely other part of this store that is just as big as the place you just walked out of. Oh yeah, the stationery! They've got beautiful art on single pieces or card sets, but they've got purses, wallets, decor, kitchen stuff, seasonal towels, aprons, plates, mugs, souvenirs, lip gloss, candles, hot pepper jelly, a whole aisle of Burt's Bees, more kid stuff; they even have a little room dedicated to the clearance section. I don't know a lot about this shop, but I can only assume some of this is locally made and a bunch of vendors have their stuff there? Anyway, budget a couple hours and go peruse this place. The shopping here rivals boutiques in the big city, but with all the charm of Fergus Falls.

However the back porch was the exception, we walked in no one said hi I thought eh no biggie then it got worse. The one woman that was there accused my daughters friend of stealing a game, even though she had nothing in her hands and was wearing fitted clothes, with no purse. It seemed odd that non of the white people including myself were accused, but our American born and raised brown skinned friend was, hmmm. The store was pretty cool, and had a lot of nice stuff, but we will never go there again.
