I purchased blinds from a different Budget Blinds 14 years ago that carried a lifetime warranty…read more The Budget Blinds I was working with back then is no longer in business and one of our blinds started to deteriorate. I called Tim Hertaus's business this afternoon, as he was the closest to my residence, with the hope he could point me in the right direction. Tim returned my call promptly, walked me through the steps to get the proper information regarding manufacture, size, pictures etc. He offered to call the manufacturer and see what he could do. Tim suggested patience as getting in touch with the right people may take a few days. I received a text from Tim less than two hours later telling me to expect new shade to be shipped to me in 2-4 weeks! Tim went above and beyond my expectations and isn't charging me anything. Writing this review is one way I can return his kindness, knowledge and generosity. I know if I need to purchase window treatments in the future, Tim is the first and only call I will make!

When the blinds were ready, he was out the next day for the install. He made sure he protected my flooring as he set he tool box and the blinds on the floor, which I thought was great. It took him no time at all to install the blinds and I am extremely happy with the result. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone.

I was in Oakdale to check out a food truck. It was a Saturday after seeing a Minnesota Wild game. I…read morewas back the following day to see another Wild game and there was a food drive happening. I needed to get a non-perishable item. I found this Target store nearby. Perfect! There was lots of parking in the lot. It's in a spacious plaza with a McDonald's close by. I pulled into a spot and walked in. Washrooms are immediately on the left. Next to that is the women's clothing section. The Spring collection was out. It was nice seeing bright colours. I see that nautical themes are popular again, which makes me think that my fashion sense in grade 10 was visionary. I found the grocery section. I grabbed a limited edition of strawberry banana Cheerios. It was delicious. I had a bowl every other morning while I was in Eagan. I brought the rest of it home and polished it off earlier this week. I hope that it comes over the border soon or I'll need to import a lot of it. I found the soup section. A can of soup seemed perfect as my non-perishable item. I got a can of Progresso low-sodium chicken noodle soup. It's exactly what I'd get and consume. I hope that whomever gets this can will like it. Easter items were out in full force. I saw a purple glittery Peeps plushie that's probably a foot tall. I fell in love with it and bought it. I'm staring at it as I write this review. No regrets. I love it so much. I feel like its ears will help improve my cell phone's signal. I also got some cherry limeade Ice Cubes gum while I was waiting in line to pay. It was excellent! The female cashier was nice. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and all was great. She put my items in a large plastic bag to accommodate my Peeps plushie. I thanked her and left. I had an enjoyable time at this store. I'd return in a heartbeat when I'm in Oakdale again. (91)

Every…read moretime I pop in, I find something new--whether it's cookbooks, cards, puzzles, kitchen gadgets, jewelry, clothing....you name it. The selection here feels endless in the best way. Allow yourself some time because the store is pretty big. I especially love coming here when I need a gift or something Minnesota-based as they always have unique, MN-feeling items that hit the mark. It's the kind of boutique where you can happily wander and browse for A WHILE. I haven't had much interaction with staff beyond checkout, and I've noticed they don't typically come out onto the floor--at least not during my last couple of Thursday visits during Marketfest. That said, checkout has always been smooth. Highly recommend if you're in the area and love a good browse through a thoughtfully selected mix of finds! Also, highly suggest joining the rewards program and checking out the clearance section while you're here... there could be some great deals tucked away!

There are 3 parts to this store and you owe it to yourself to experience them all! I started in the style area, which is the clothing part of the store. This is an upscale women's apparel store, with habitat, Liverpool, Johnny Was, and many other upscale brands. All of it is beautifully curated and displayed. You will have fun browsing the racks. The sales associates were super helpful and knew exactly how to interact with people--making customers feel welcome, but not pressured to buy. Downstairs, there is an amazing sales area. Don't miss this gem! Bargains galore and beautiful things! I'm sure it changes regularly. Then stop at the cafe and have a coffee, pastry, or freshly baked cookie. All the treats look and smell delicious. The staff was very sweet and service was prompt. After that, continue shopping at the Good Things gift shop. This is a top notch gift shop the likes of which I rarely see. It is brimming with themed displays for almost every interest or occasion. If you can't find a gift here, you may never find it! Seriously. You can wander in this shop for an entire morning and still not see everything. I hope you stop by Good Things. It's a fabulous shop. Locally owned. Go there for your next gift.
