    And this place they have the lunchbox where I got talked bad about in the store called Lunchbox

    This store doesn't even Deserve any stars. I went in and one of the workers and the manager talked down on me and my cousin for being dressed different and had someone follow me because one of the workers had said they didn't trust me or my cousin for being , dressed the way we did and I had went in with my daughter and my Tia and cousin and I didn't Deserve to be treated like that being from a whole different County to a new one. is this how you treat your customers and later, acting all nice and innocent after knowing what they did? I would put 0 stars if it would let me but it doesn't. Learn to treat your Customers with respect!! Mind you this happened around 6-6:23pm today Saturday July 19 2025

    I am definitely a patron of nerd-chandise (nerd merchandise)! BoxLunch is by far my favorite place to gear up in any of the following fandoms that I love -- Harry Potter, Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Sailor Moon, etc. The list continues. They even have Jurassic Park and Pokemon! I mean, come on!! This place is bomb! Everyone that works there is so nice. The new store manager, who came from Irvine Irvine Spectrum's location, is so knowledgeable! For the most part, I am able to talk about cool/fun/nerdy things with them. Most of them seem to know me, which could mean a bad thing because that will mean I am a regular. The sad and a bonus part on my end is that this BoxLunch at MainPlace Mall is my go-to. It doesn't help that the 24 Hour Fitness and Starbucks there are where I go religiously. Thus walking from Point A to Point B, the store is right in the middle. A huge bonus is I feel good shopping there because they have a good cause. "With every $10 spent in-store or online, BoxLunch will help provide one meal* to a person in need through the Feeding America network of food banks." Of course I round up when I can just to help! I'm going to post some awesome photos of the nerd-chandise that I bought from there. It's pretty sweet. One of my favorite was a photo of my Harry Potter Deathly Hallows purse. That sucker trended on Instagram like crazy... for both BoxLunch, Loungefly, and me. #getsomegiveback

    Nightmare Before Christmas merch

    Super cool pop culture store in Main Place! Kids and I had fun browsing in here for about 30 minutes! BoxLunch reminds me of ThinkGeek. Lots of nerd merch, with sections for Nightmare Before Christmas, Nintendo, Netflix shows, Pusheen, Bob's Burgers, Star Wars, NASA, etc. Found lots of cool stuff, and several items would make great White Elephant gifts! Kids wanted to buy everything in the place, so we finally left for my sanity. But I took lots of pictures and mental notes for Christmas presents! BTW, they are currently on their Christmas return policy, which means you can return items with receipt (or gift receipt) until 1/31!

    I ordered a demon slayer box figurine for a birthday. It was delivered in a BAG packaging... so obviously it came damaged (it looked as if it got stepped on). The person receiving this gift collects these figures in the boxes and doesn't open the box so I needed an intact box. I called customer service and they said they would send a new one with overnight shipping. (Didn't come over night it took 2 days) when it finally arrived it came once again in a BAG packaging instead of a box to protect it and it came DAMAGED! I called again and they said I had to go down to a box lunch and return it to get a refund. I asked them why they didn't send it in a box to protect the figurine's box? They said THEY DIDN'T HAVE BOXES BIG ENOUGH... what ? I've ordered loungefly backpacks from them and they arrive in much bigger boxes then the demon slayer figure I ordered. I asked to speak to a higher up and it was denied. RIDICULOUS!!!

    Had to pay so much more for getting my pop with delivery charges since they did not hold my pop in store

    M.Lovewell is an independent stationery store located in Downtown Santa Ana near 4th Street Market…read moreand the shop hosts various creative workshops. This flagship brick-and-mortar location first opened in 2016 and M.Lovewell used to have a mini location inside Contra Coffee + Tea in Old Towne Orange (now closed). At the end of each July, the store offers Anniversary Weekend sales with an additional 20% off most items. [Parking]: There is a parking structure across the street for 4th Street Market. I had no issue finding free street parking in this part of town on Sunday afternoon. [Selection]: There was a tote-making station for a $25 DIY tote (choose a tote color and one patch, tell the staff where you want it, and the staff will iron it on for you) and Build a Washi Tin for $44 (limited-edition 10-year washi tin and choose eight washi tapes to fit inside the tin). I was quite impressed with the cute stationery selection including planners, pens (Tombow ABT PRO Alcohol Markers + Zebra's MILDLINER) from brands like Sarasa, Penco, Zebra, Mono, and Uni-ball, writing paper (MD Paper), cases and pouches from The Superior Labor, greeting cards, stickers, stamps, watercolor boards, Toyo toolboxes, etc. They even offer really fancy pens from brands like OHTO as well as $200+ fountain pens and inks for fountain pens. They have tester pens for customers to try out. On their website, customers can preorder The Hobonichi Techo for new releases for the upcoming year. [Conclusion]: Overall this shop focuses more on Japanese stationery brands (they do not sell MUJI here) and personally this is one of the best pure stationery shops in Orange County. I like this store much better than places like Shorthand, Baum-kuchen, or The Social Type in Los Angeles.

    CUTE INDEPENDENT SHOP (4 stats)…read more There isn't much happening in downtown Santa Ana but there are a few hidden gems. Did I overhear that this place has been open for ~10 years?! I stumbled upon this shop while walking around the small downtown and as I walked more east I questioned should I turn around? Right when I was able to this store popped in view and I had to go in! What a cute shop if you are into stationary and pens and etc. I love supporting small independent businesses so I was determined to leave with something. There were a collective of independent products from different companies/artists that sell their items here. I didn't expect to leave spending $70.05 on 5 tiny items. WAX SEAL ($20) - by Made of Honour. There weee a handful of styles available. Very nice packaging. SEALING WAX BEADS 100pc ($9) - by Fiona Ariva. Variety of stunning colors. WAX SEAL HANDLE ($9) - by Fiona Ariva. I believe this is the standard size that fits other brands. BOAT PEN CASE ($13) - by Luddite. I been looking for a small compact pen case for my very few ones that i own and this was what I was looking for. ANTERIQUE BALLPOINT PEN ($13) - I love this mini pen and how it writes. The store DOES sell anterique refills BUT not the mini anterique refills that is needed for this pen. You can order the refills online on Amazon. So here's what gets me about shopping here. - California State Tax (0.5%) - Orange County Tax (0.25%) - Santa Ana City Tax (15%) - Orange County District Tax SP (0:5%) - Orange County Tax SL (1%) ^^ Added an additional $5.95 to the initial subtotal. That's alot in my opinion! Cool store, with a checkout. Until the next review....

At first all was good, when we entered there was a couple other kids looking around so we allowed our kids to take a look around as well. My older daughter was having trouble deciding so my three year old son kept tossing around a dog he had decided on. While doing that he dropped it a few times on the floor, where a worker brought that to my attention, understandable, so I placed it in my basket. Finally we had all decided on a jelly cat and my son changed his option to another one I took a look at the dog and he was still in great condition so I put it back. When we were about to pay the cashier bluntly expressed if we would purchasing the dog since my son a dropped it. It wasn't the situation that frustrated me and it was the way I was approached about it. You know what I bought them all because I didn't want to ruin my children's experience that I had hoped would be different. She then tried to be nice about the situation but honestly my husband and me felt uncomfortable. We witnessed another child tossing and licking other stuff animals and left without buying anything, yet here we were buying 3 jelly cats and then almost forced to buy a fourth getting rude customer service. Definitely will not be shopping here ever again. I think specifically her name was Alysa who was the one out of the three who made us extremely uncomfortable. One of the worst customer experience I had in my life

Once I was home, I started seeing posts on social media of the newest Harvey's release for Mother's Day - a collab with the tattoo artist Sid - and the newest line is called "Tough as a Mother", which seemed so fitting after what I had just gone through, so I knew I needed this bag to add to my collection. We went to the First Friday release and was able to get my bag signed by Melanie & Dana Harvey, and Sid. The Harveys are always so nice! And their staff are so helpful - and organized! They keep the lines in order and moving pretty quickly! I just love supporting Harvey's! They are a local business, the Harveys are an awesome couple, and they have amazing products!
