First know this is an OLD warehouse. it's not a fancy place. I'm not sure if it's a pop up holiday place or if it's here all year (we only come durning xmas time). If you are looking for a ton of holiday decoration choices at a really reasonable price then this the place for you. We come here for lights and misc items. We have always found what we are looking for at this store. Tons of parking Santa is usually here. read more

Total dump. Old filthy dirty overpriced junk. When the father was alive and they were located at Jackson and Swanson it's is was the best Christmas Decorating shopping experience next to Gudios. Now it's just a total waste of time. read more

They may not be the fanciest place but they sure do have EVERYTHING. They have been my "Go To" for anything Christmas for years. Their prices are so great that I don't even mind paying the sales tax. read more

Kindy's finally came through with my refund. I was notified with a refund receipt. I must give them credit. They went over and above by refunding the amount for both deer, not just the one that was defective! Kudos to you. It arrived in my email on Christmas eve. Thanks! read more

It's ok here. It's kind of old and a little run down but with some patience you can find some reasonable stuff. You need to arrive early in the season and test everything before you leave. Prices are about equal to other places if you don't catch any of their deals. They do have most of the stuff setup in little same displays so you can see how they look. read more

I stopped by Kindy's while passing through Philadelphia earlier this month.  I bought some fairy lights for my kids to put in their room during the holidays but liked them so much I went to Kindy's.com to ordered more for my entry way.  Seeing these little lights as I enter my door makes the whole house feel more festive. read more

Buyers beware! SCAM!!!!!! I ordered on line from Kindy's in November. I received a confirmation email, my charge card was charged literally 2 minutes after the order. I haven't heard from them since. I tried calling but the recording says the person I requested is unavailable and the line goes dead. I have contacted them via email 4 times! The website says that they get back to you with 24 -48 hrs. Well it's been 2 weeks and no reply. I have reported them to the BBB and I have already filed a dispute with my credit card company. Good luck to Gail Z. If I could give minus 5 stars I would have. read more

Was unimpressed. Was super hyped to go and get decorations. They hardly had anything and it was over priced. I was going to buy a big bow. It was 12$. Nothing had prices on it. Didn't even have lights except for pa is with 100 on them read more

BUYER BEWARE! -- Have bought from them in the past, went well, but something has changed - check out the other reviews and my own experience - ordered 3 deer motors online, they were happy to (automated) take my Paypal moneym but nothing shipped. No response to customer care inquiries, no answer on phone. I think they either have no help, or no product, but no product and no replies means BUYER BEWARE! read more

I had placed an order for a Christmas reindeer mid November and I had emailed and called Kindy's multiple times to see if my order had been shipped out to me. They never responded to me. In my opinion that is poor customer service on their part. Someone could have at least gotten back to me and they could have let me have known about my order. I had to call my credit card company and I was able to get a refund for the reindeer I had ordered. I just wanted to put this out there just in case someone places an online order from Kindy's and they don't get their order. Call your credit card company and dispute your order if you don't receive a response from them. read more

Interesting store, BUT horrible customer service. Placed an online order November 28 and my order never shipped. Contacted Kindy's and was told one item out of stock and rest would ship. No response from further emails to Kindy's. December 14 and still no items shipped or refund. Escalated to Pay Pal for refund. Will never buy from them again!! read more

Placed online order November 19th, it never shipped and the company does not respond to emails. You cannot get a human on the phone. Do not order online from this company. read more

I placed an order, received the confirmation but haven't received or heard from them since. I tried to call their customer service number (215-271-7600) and it said that the person I wanted wasn't there and it disconnected. I did go online to my account and found that supposedly it is being shipped via UPS but there was no info as to whether it's gone out yet. There is no tracking number shown either. I am now going to see if I can contact them via email. This is very frustrating. read more

While doing a few Christmas activities in Philly, my parents and I decided to head over to Kindy's sole purpose of seeing the re-erected G-Boys Christmas display. KINDYS: Kindy's is located in a warehouse, and the inside has not been decorated to look otherwise. There is alot to look at here. The decorations are split into difference sections with labels so things are easy to find. I did not see "outlet" prices reflected in many of the price tags- if anything I think alot of items were overpriced. Also, the warehouse is not heated, so bundle up. G-BOYS: The G-Boy's display is a throw back to my childhood, so of course I loved it. For $3 a person, kids under a certain age are free, you can walk through a winter Christmas wonderland. The whole thing will take you about ten minutes and you'll see different scenes displayed with moving parts. Through the walk through you'll also read some history on the display and G-Boys. At the end of your tour there is a very special man ready to greet you... AKA Santa. The lines for Santa are short, and even better you can take your pictures on your own device and no charge! read more

When Kindy's is open and staffed properly, you can find a lot of variety of things to purchase for your Christmas/Holiday needs. I'd say prices are on par with the selection and somewhat comparable to other stores. As others have said, parking is abundant and free. The warehouse aspect doesn't concern me...it's a big spot, easy to get to, and holds a lot of Christmas stuff. The quality and selection has declined over the past 5 years, for sure, but it's still a good trip for your needs. Good lighting and ornament selections highlight the trip. Here's the problem, at least for Christmas 2018 -- they have advertisements saying they opened on Nov 18, and beginning December 1, were open 7 days a week. We went on opening day -- CLOSED. Nothing on the door, just a ghost town. Other people were rolling into the parking lot and we all thought the same thing -- we swore we saw the signs saying they were open and they weren't. Fast forward to today, December 2, we roll into Kindy's -- CLOSED. December 2nd. Explain that to me. Either Kindy's has no idea when they're supposed to be open (ads say one thing) or they're just lazy. read more

All of the merchandise looks like poor Chinese quality stuff that was made in the 70s and is overpriced. We were in and out in 15 minutes. Don't even bother. read more

Everything Christmas. From lights, to ornaments, to outdoor decor, you can find it all at Kindy's. The place to go for all your decorating needs. read more

The McBoyles from Its always sunny, work here. For being a factory outlet, I expected their prices to be better. The quality of some of their stuff is really suspect. This is Chinese manufacturing at its finest, aka the lowest of the lowest quality. They get 2 stars because they had some unique items. read more

Last year I tried purchasing a motor for my reindeer no return calls or emails . I finally gave up! Yesterday I tried on line to process my order, and like last year it wouldn't process again I tried calling and emailing with no reply! Today I started again ,and got the same results NOTHING! They shouldn't try to sell on line . Their service is less than 1 star but that is the lowest you can go. It's a motor, really! it's $11.00 read more

I ordered an item online. I had trouble using the credit card feature to pay so I tried using the paypal feature (you can still use a credit card without a paypal account) and it worked fine. They informed me of shipping and I received me item within days of placing my order. The item was packaged very well. I know they have gotten a lot of poor reviews here, but I had a very good buying experience and would buy from again. Thank-you. read more

Low end and overpriced. You can get nicer products for the same price at any regular store.

I was an on-line customer. That service worked fine for me. I placed my Christmas light (Symphony of Lights) order in early September and my baggage of 3 came on time and without incident. This was a supplemental order to lengthen 2 sets I already had purchased from a local store 2 years ago. The Symphony of Lights (with the controller box/$30.00) are simply an awesome display. My local store did not sell them last year for some reason. This year I may have found out why. One set of lights had the 5th light bulb burn out. The four lights preceding this outage no longer function in unison with the rest of the strand. I am not sure if it is related but the push button controller no longer changes the display of lights either. Turns out the bulbs are not replaceable either. Of the three sets of lights I received this year, 2 sets have at least one non functioning bulb; again not replaceable. Truly a shame, my house looks like a "misfit" this year... read more

I see these other reviewers complaining about the store being dirty. News flash: IT'S A WAREHOUSE, so of course it's going to be a little dusty. But the employees are friendly and they work hard to make sure the customers are happy. The items in stock are brand new and sealed in the packages. You're also allowed to test the lights and such, to make sure they work. Where else can you do that? Top notch customer service and a great selection of products. This place is a part of Philadelphia history. My go to place for anything Christmas. read more

Kindy's used to be GREAT! We were there every year when Mr. Kinderman was alive. Since his son took over it's slowly gone down every year...what a shame! Mr. Kinderman took pride in his Christmas store and was a good, kind man. Alot of my family and friends worked there during the the season and it was a pleasant place to be employed because of that man. My husband even took our little girl with him because she wanted to be part of the Christmas place (he took care of the concession stand) and they got to spend quality time together while she learned great work ethics she still carries with her today. We would purchase a decorations for a different window theme every year, not anymore. I can't understand why that wonderful man's son would let his father's life's work sink to the bottom like this and not try harder to make it the magical place it used to be. Oh, and charging $3.00 to see the trees (that were so beautiful years ago with all sorts of decorations and winter scenes) that now seem to just be trees thrown together (something I'll not pay to go see) with a sad Santa at the end? Mr. Kinderman is probably rolling over in his grave, waiting for the his son's day of reckoning! I wonder if the son has trouble sleeping at night or maybe he get visits from Christmas ghosts? Maybe it's time for him to think about his priorities...his father was happy, wealthy and kind. Wonder what his clients, employees, and acquaintances have to say about him. read more

I go to Kindy's every year for my Christmas shopping. It is always a joyful experience every time I go there. The staff is very friendly and is also willing to help you with your every need. I always look forward to them opening every year and get all my decorations for my house here. Great place! read more

Useless. They are out of everything and I started early in the season. These are simple things like candy canes and rope lights. Everything SOLD OUT. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH KINDY'S!!!!! read more

I have been goin to Kindys for years it has been the Christmas goto place for my friends & family forever, However this year the store is empty an looks terrible !! Not to mention now they added a "walk thru wonderland" that costs $3.00. I'm guessing they're trying to make money anyway they can...Hopefully next year they will be back to fully stocked shelves & trees. read more

false advertisement. it say battery operated but its not. wont refund cash only store credit.

It gives you what you need at a low price. There is a great diversity in goods sold. Service is adequate. Worth the trip just to see how many things they actually hold. Just keep mind it is seasonal. It only lasts October to December. read more

I enjoyed this place. It has a great section with low prices. I enjoy their light sets the most. It also has a really cool Christmas village display. The catch is you just have to know when it opens and when the best times to go are. read more

I've been coming to Kindy's for years. They had a good selection. However, I've been there twice this year, the Saturday after Thanksgiving 2018 and Sunday Dec 2nd 2018 and they were closed!!!! No one answers their phone. Are they closed? read more

It's okay if you go in with low expectations. A large variety of holiday decorations, but the inventory seems to cater to the lower-end crowd. The majority of the shoppers fit this bill. Worth checking out if you are local, but don't go out of your way. read more

Went there this weekend for the first time & were very impressed with Kindy's. Great selection of lights & outdoor decor with cheapest prices around. My kids loved the Christmas wonderland which I heard is new this year. If you are looking for cheap prices and a huge selection definitely go to Kindy's! read more

Haven't been there since I was a kid. Went for some new led lights, definitely the best selection and prices of lights of anywhere I've been. Also picked up a cordless wreath for 9 bucks. Has an outlet feel but thought it was well worth the trip and my kids enjoyed getting their faces painted. read more

Kindy's is a tradition every December. The lights and decorations are great, and you can always find a few interesting things as well! Love it read more

This place is a SCAM, don't order anything from them. I ordered Christmas lights that were supposed to include replacement bulbs and fuses, but I didn't receive either. Then when I connected the lights most of them were broken. I've contacted Kindy's, but they have chosen to ignore me. They have my money so they don't care. I am going to contact the Philadelphia, PA District Attorney, Fraud Division. If enough people complain we can get them shut down. read more

Just shopped here for some Christmas lights before all of the good ones are sold out. While I thought the prices for some stuff was high, I compared a set of lights I bought at Kindy's for $25 per set to an exact same set sold at the big box store for $56 a set. The employees were helpful and friendly. read more

Ordered a couple of items from them before Christmas. It took forever for them to ship. Forget about their claim in getting back to you in 24-48 hours if you try contacting them through email. It's been 3 weeks after both numerous follow-up emails and phone calls (to their answering machine). Buyer beware!!!! read more

I placed an order on-line and have yet to receive it, contacted customer service email, have yet to receive a response, contacted PayPal which they contacted the store, they have yet to receive a reply from the store, found the phone number on yelp, called the store I was transferred to a voice mail where I'm sure I'll get the same response as above. Thank god I paid with PayPal so I'll get my money back. From the OLD write-ups regarding this store, I can see what it use to be.......but it is clearly NOT that anymore. DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE. read more

While visiting friends, I went to Kindy's on the recommendation of someone who lives in the Philly area. It has by far the largest selection of holiday and outdoor lights I have ever seen in one place. I thought it would be overwhelming but the staff was super knowledgeable and helped us to choose the perfect outdoor lights for our home. None of the bulbs were broken upon arrival, they were easy to put up and we have received a ton of compliments from our neighbors. we would definitely consider ordering from their online store next year if we can't make it back for another in-person visit. read more
