Most recently, I stopped in to return a sweater/sweatshirt I was gifted for Christmas that happened to be about 25 sizes too large. I opted for store credit mostly due to the fact I would be traveling and my suitcases were at capacity. I saw a lot of things I would have enjoyed a lot more than a sweatshirt that was 25 sizes too large for me but oh well. I am grateful the return process was a breeze and to have the store credit to buy something I find value in. All that to say, the service was great; no questions asked about my return and I was in and out quickly. My takeaway from browsing has always been great selection, great prices.

They have a big table outside with Buffalo Bills tee shirts and long-sleeved shirts. They have kids sizes too. They have other Bills items and sports items inside the store. This store usually isn't open on Sundays but he is open today because it's the home opener. (And because he did so well last year at this time. He has a stand outside the stadium too.) I bought a tee shirt for myself and for my best friend. It was $21.75 for both items!!! (I paid that price at 12:30pm today, about an hour ago.) The guy outside helping the owner was kind and helpful and so was owner. He was inside at the cash register. When the Toronto Blue Jays we're playing here, he sold Buffalo Blue Jays shirts and other cool clothing items. This store is great if you want a cool local spirts shirt at a great price.
