I went here on Monday, March 25, 2019. I shopped around and spoke to the volunteer who worked…read morethere. It was an amazing experience. This shop is located in the Carson City Senior Center and is open Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 3 PM. When I pointed out that the website said they closed at 3:30 PM, the volunteer apologized and said it was been that way for years. Much to my surprise, a few hours later it was corrected on the web, without me even requesting that. For this gift shop, seniors who are 62 and older make crafts, jewelry, accessories, etc., and sell them here on consignment. 15% of the proceeds goes to Meals on Wheels, which the Carson Senior Center runs. The remaining 85% goes directly to the person who consigned the craft, so they may have some extra income! All items are new. They accept consignments Tuesdays and Wednesdays only. I asked if disabled people under 62 could sell items there, and the volunteer was not sure, but said to come back in a short while when the manager would be there. The store has an enormous amount of items for sale, all very colorful. They have such diverse items as scarves, quilts, throw pillows, wigs, trinkets, pictures, trucks, teddy bears, home decor, jewelry, walking sticks, etc. The volunteer I spoke to was oh so nice and professional. They take the four major credit cards according to the sign on their windows, but the bulletin board inside says just three: MasterCard, Visa, and Discover. They also take cash, but no longer accept checks. The store is so bright and colorful, I want to come back here soon to shop!

I've started taking my friends and family here and now when they come into town they ask if I can take them back to the "christmas store!" The ornaments and tree displays are so beautiful, my christmas tree is always so unique because of the treasures I find in this store. The staff is so helpful, they go the extra mile to locate certain items, take their time to make sure your purchase is perfect and even help you find items you may not have noticed that go amazing with the items you've selected. This is not the dollar store, and you will spend a little more here for your treasures, BUT these items are quality and will last for years. When I have a bad day or just need a little boost of happiness, I come here. This store gives me a little boost of dopamine that just makes me feel good. A must.

They also have classes there Sunday-Wednesday. Solid shop that I will return to in the future.

This weekend I had the chance to come back and I'm so glad I did! The location is awesome. There's ample paid street parking and a ton of other stores and restaurants nearby.

Employees are all awesome and very friendly AND will offer suggestions, which I love. I wish there was a bookstore like this one in my home town haha. But if you are in the area and are a reader, it's absolutely worth checking out!

When you live in a tiny town with 3 stoplights, you either find what you need in 2 minutes or you…read morehave to drive 45 minutes to get to the middle of Reno or Carson City. So when people complain about high prices in a small town, take into consideration how desperate you are and how much you are willing to pay. And when it comes to kid-friendly shopping, you're pretty much relegated to bare pickings in the IV. So Village Toys is located next to an ice cream shop on one side and the Wildflower Cafe on the other. Very small shop but it's pretty much the only game in town for a selection of toys, dolls, art supplies, puzzles, etc. It's a fine place.

The first issue was poor order fulfillment: I received the wrong item. When I contacted customer…read moreservice, they acknowledged the mistake and offered to send the correct item at no additional charge. Unfortunately, the second issue was poor follow-through. Twelve days passed without the replacement order being processed, and it wasn't until I contacted them to ask about it that anything was done. What was especially disappointing was the company-centric solution they offered as compensation: a 20% off coupon that required me to spend more money with their company. In other words, I was offered a discount on a future purchase to compensate me for an error they made on my current order--and for failing to follow through on correcting that error. I also asked if they could simply expedite the replacement order to make up for the inconvenience. That would have been a simple and reasonable solution, particularly in an era when technology makes it easier than ever to process and expedite orders quickly. Instead, my request was actively denied. Mistakes happen. What matters is how a company handles those mistakes. In this case, I felt the priority was protecting the company's bottom line rather than making things right for the customer. Based on this experience, I would be cautious about ordering from a company that appears willing to put its financial interests ahead of its customers' experience.
