If you have kids and come to Galena, you already know about Poopsie's. If you're an adult and you…read morehaven't been in here, you still need to go. They've got something for everyone, and it's super fun to walk around the store and interact with the staff and the games. They've got a ton of stuff that you can play with while you're there, and the staff knows about everything there to offer up opinions on all their items. We stop in this place so often that I've lost count. Their content changes so heading in there is normally going to be somewhat of a new experience, and they've remodeled a bit to make it even easier to walk around and check things out. This place is normally super busy, but I did manage to get some pictures since we were the first ones in. It's absolutely a place to support, and they put in a great amount of effort to make sure you have the best experience in a brick-and-mortar store. It's a challenge to not leave with something in your hands. If you have kids, I'd say it's not possible - at least with mine :D

There is an entire wall dedicated to Melissa & Doug toys and puzzles, along with lots of books, handfuls of stuffed animals, and plenty of other toys to enchant the kiddos. Pricing was relatively on point and I was most impressed with the friendly employee who was more than happy to give us direction and suggestions regarding our dinner options that evening. Next time I'm in the area I'm going to do my due diligence and peruse the front of the store for a little something for myself. Girlfriend Gabby has the gift scenario on lockdown, so if you find yourself scrambling for *something* for **someone** while in downtown Galena, definitely stop on by.

While the service in most stores in Galena is pretty good, I think the folks at Gabbys give that extra touch of helpfulness to find the right thing without bombarding you around the store. Also great when I'm in a hurry and no time to be distracted by all the wonderful options.

This was our favorite retail shop during a 24-hour getaway to Galena.

Unlike other stores on the main drag, this shop was incredibly well organized and allowed the eye room to breathe with pockets of displays amidst wide open space. Pricing was comparable to what we'd find elsewhere and the folks behind the counter were lovely to make small talk with. Congrats on your current reno, and best wishes for 20 more years!

One complaint I had was my son (6/Autistic) was with me while I was looking around, it seemed that every place I went to look at, the owner was there watching me at my son... she either was "folding" items... or straightening items on shelves. One time I seen her to walk to where we were and look at us, I saw her, so she turned and walked away... Kinda felt uncomfortable, but then when I went to check out, she acted like she wasn't keeping an eye on us and acted friendly... she didn't follow or watch anyone else in the store.

They have clothes--lots of t-shirts; pop star candles in the style of devotional candles (pretty sure I saw a Nikki Minaj one, which... no), and other sorts of fun, irreverent items. The clothes were adorable for teens! But I'm not really sure a person like me (plus size; over 21) would find a lot here. I did like the way they painted the floor and ceiling. Cute and whimsical.
