It won't be there if you come back a week later! That's what makes it so much fun! It's like walking into a new shop everytime. They have some really great product lines too. If you need ideas or gifts for any occasion, it is a place to check out. Plus, they are really great at at offering to place special orders if they do run out of an item. A couple things I've found: 1. Fun MN sports jewelry in Gopher colors, Wild colors, etc. 2. Personalized gifts from picture frames to serving trays 3. A large array of wine accessories, including this suit of armor wine bottle holder! They can be a bit spendy on some items, but nothing you wouldn't expect from a small business boutique. So, shop til you drop (or run out of money)!!

The monogramming was basically in the middle of the hanky. Susan "offered" to redo the work but charge me again for it. Not much of an offer, especially since I'd have to buy new hankies. Would not recommend to anyone.

I am a huge Samsonite fan. The luggage that I brought with me on this trip is a Samsonite and is…read moreprobably two decades old. The fabric has seen better days, as has its handle. It has been replaced with, you guessed it, another Samsonite luggage. I am in search of a carry-on, rolling computer bag. My trusty one that I have been using for a decade no longer fits in the overhead compartment on Air Canada's aircraft travelling to and from the States. I need something smaller, but I am perfectly fine using my backpack these days. I saw this Samsonite store at Eagan Outlet Mall. I had never stepped foot in it. I decided to pay it a visit. I walked in and a European-designed set of luggage greeted me. The small one looked adorable. I rolled it around and it was incredibly lightweight that required little effort to move it. A man approached me and asked if I had any questions. I launched into one. I was looking for a computer rolling bag and wondered if he had any. He had two and led me over to them. One had two wheels and was rather large. The other was smaller with four wheels. I loved the smaller one more. His counterpart, who is his manager, pointed out some bags that were designed for women and had wheels. He showed one of them and it looked hideous. It looked like a handbag on steroids with two wheels. What caught my attention were the travel accessories. I liked the Disney tags and got a Minnie Mouse one. I also got a spinner strap that clips on to your luggage and secures your second bag. The best part of this visit was the conversation. The man asked where I was from. I said Toronto. It was interesting that the woman couldn't tell whether I was Canadian or American. She asked. I said the former. I have always felt that it's straightforward figuring out that I'm Canadian. I don't talk like a Minnesotan unless I am mimicking it. However, I am so comfortable being in this state because I used to live here. I can see why she couldn't tell. I let them know that I used to live in Rochester, which made both of them open up. They both live in Rochester. The woman used to live across from where I used to work. The man lived in Owatonna before settling in Rochester. I don't find it weird driving an hour between Rochester and Eagan for work. It's similar to my driving between Markham and Mississauga for work before the pandemic. Perhaps as I get older, connections with and stories from people make me happy. I enjoyed hearing how she and her then boyfriend drove from Rochester to Niagara Falls for the first time. She loved the charm of that city, but her cheap boyfriend found the food at McDonald's so expensive. "Are you still with him?" I asked her. "Unfortunately, yes, depending on your point of view," she said. We all cracked up! If you check in on the Yelp app and you spend $200 or more, you get $20 off. That's not bad if you get the largest piece of luggage in the store. Everything was discounted, including the two accessories that I was purchasing. I paid using a credit card. Their payment kiosk accepts tap, swipe, and chip insertion. I did tap and it works fine. They both let me know that they expect more roller computer bags down the road. Due to supply chain issues, there is a delay. I was okay with it and thanked them both for showing me what they have. There is more selection at this store than at the ones that I have frequented in Canada. They were happy to hear it. The woman told me to stay warm, as the Twin Cities is currently going through a cold snap. The man said that it's probably warmer in Toronto, but the weather right now is comparable to Winnipeg. I let him know that I used to live in Winnipeg. It was where I learned how to plug in my car on cold nights, which made them both laugh and appreciate that I am a fairly well-travelled person. I appreciated that he used to work at FedEx and knew that Canada has postal codes. I signed up to be on Samsonite's mailing list, so he made sure that he didn't ask me for my ZIP code. I was pleased with my cool purchases and how friendly both staff members were. I had an enjoyable shopping experience and chat. I'd return again in hopes of finding a decent computer bag with spinner wheels. (492)

Beware of Clearance items, they are final sale, not returnable. EVEN if you find they are…read moredefective. We purchased an electrical plug converter for a trip and when we unfolded the prongs when we got to Europe, the prongs were both defective, the metal ends detached from their posts. The thing was unusable. In addition, if the metal tips had still been on the prongs (only loose, not fallen off yet) and we plugged it in to an outlet, the metal tips could have remained in the outlet when we unplugged! That could have been a disaster. The store refused to accept a return, even of a defective Clearance item, citing that we knew when we bought them that they were not returnable, that they had no way of knowing if an unopened packaged item was defective, etc. My guess is that the Clearance items are things that they already know have a problem and they just want to get rid of them, take your money, no returns accepted. If an item is packaged so that you cannot test it out, don't buy. My trust in Samsonite is destroyed.

I stopped in to purchase some new sunglasses. I know they sold Tifosi glasses that I like for…read moreoutdoor activities. I used to buy super expensive sunglasses and they would inevitably break or I'd lose them so I like these because they fit nice, are stylish, block sun and run about $80. I walked into the store and was immediately helped. I tried on one pair of lens adjusting glasses and he told me to go outside and see how they darken. He was knowledgeable about how and when they darken. He checked into glasses similar to what I had at other stores. In the end I bought a different style from what I had and am happy with my choice. I then walked around the store. They have tons of bikes but also many clothes and accessories. I liked all the Mn themed bike shirts they had available. I'll definitely be back to shop some more. Great experience.

My experiences at Erik's overall have been very positive. Until today at the Eagan store, and it…read morewas a deal breaker. Two weeks ago I had two of my Aventon Aventures in for potential tune-ups. They put them on the rack, checked chain, brakes, etc. & told me one needed service, but the other was in good shape, no tune-up needed. I've always been impressed with Erik's integrity. When my fiance' went to use it this past weekend however, it had no front brake. I thought, "maybe something got loose, or disconnected when they were looking at it?". It's an imperfect world, no big deal. I screwed around with it a bit out on the trail with my fingers (no tools) and got it working, but since I was going back to Erik's to pick up another of my bikes & another rack, I hoped they could just see if something was loose while I was there? Nope. Absolutely not. The woman working at the Eagan location (who I've avoided talking to in the past as much as possible) told me she could only put it into the shop to have that looked at. That'd be weeks, maybe months out. I've spent 10k at Erik's buying five e-bikes, two expensive racks, countless accessories, maintenance, trade-ins, etc. in the past 2-3 years. This woman simply was not going to accommodate me. Period. Instead, I took it to another shop where I'd never spent a penny & they tightened up a couple loose screws for free. I'm not mad that the woman in Eagan shop refused to accommodate me. I'm sure it was policy. But, I'll never purchase anything at Erik's again.

With my allergies I purchase the men's cotton socks. Over the years they have become thinner and not as good of quality. They also used to have fun patterns and now it is the boring neutrals. The coats used to be excellent and we own several jackets and parkas. Now the quality is much worse. I purchased a parka and the hood was defective. The only thing that I still consider very good is the supima towel bath sheet. Out of all of the items I purchased in the last few years, I have returned about 75%.

I saw this Claire's store at the Twin Cities Premium Outlets and decided to stop by. I can't recall…read morewhen I last stepped into a Claire's store anywhere. I was immediately greeted by a woman who asked if I was looking for something specific. I wasn't. She didn't tell me that everything in the store was 30% off until I was at the back of it. Weird. You'd think that after hearing my response that she'd rattle off promotions. Not here. This store has Squishmallows. They are the larger ones, which was nice to see. I saw a cute koala with a purple bow. It was a sight for sore eyes. I also enjoyed looking at a bunch of non-Squishmallows plushies. What shocked me was seeing the Hello Kitty-Pusheen collaboration in full force at this store. From water bottles to bath balms, it was cool to see all this merchandise. Heavily discounted items are at the back of the store. I managed to get a mini wallet (getting into a major venue for concerts or sporting events require that you carry a wallet that fits in your pocket) and a keychain. I had the same woman help me out at the checkout. I signed up for Claire's rewards. It will likely take me a long time to get anything out of it because I'm not a regular customer, but I can always chip away at it. My items were indeed reduced by 30%. I paid with my credit card. All went well. I thanked her and left with my purchases. This store is cool to get earrings, plushies, and more. When I'm back at this outlet, I'd drop by and check this store out again. (437)

However; I also love coming randomly throughout the year to get updated clothing items. I typically like to check out under Armour and Nike, the Columbia store also has a separate outlet location as well. Recently, I feel like prices haven't been nearly as good as they used to, but in this economy, who can blame them. I would love to see a little bit more variation in the food court, it's mostly Asian cuisines and Cinnabon. All delicious but would love to see some more options. There's a ton of parking, but if you come on a busy weekend, you may not notice and still have to park far away. Bummed to see some recent retailers, leaving, they've been replaced with stores that my opinion were is great. Overall, a decent shopping trip, it's also in a great location. There's plenty of other stores/eating nearby. I recommend checking out the Twin Cities premium outlets if you haven't been there before.

And their commercial has a catchy song. Good luck getting that out of my head now that I said it. Anyhow I needed to get some new wipers for my car as my current wipers were not working as good as they used to. I also needed to get some cleaning supplies to clean the interior of my car. In the past I have usually picked up these supplies at any number of big box stores. Then I thought to myself, there is an O'Reilly close to my office, I should check them out. I stopped in one morning and was greeted as I walked in and asked if I needed any help. I explained that I was looking for some wipers and some cleaning supplies. The gentleman walked out to help me and asked if the wipers were for my Toyota. While I was surprised, I was equally impressed that he recognized the type of car I had when I pulled up. I usually like to get Rain-x wipers. They are more expensive but work much better. The good news is I noticed they had a sale going on for $8.00 off a set of wipers. The bad news is they were out of a number of sizes including the size I needed. Without hesitation this gentleman offered me a different set that he explained were as good if not better than the Rain-x. While I thought for a quick moment he proceeded to tell me he would match the sale price for these other wipers. Sold! That's a great deal! He then showed me their cleaning supplies and what he recommended. This was about as good of an experience as you can have. From my receipt the gentleman that helped me is named Mike. I'll definitely be back to O'Reilly whenever I need anything for my car.
