They have candles, diffusers and all kinds of home smell goods too. I came here for the Blue Elephant yellow curry and found a plethora of other items. I picked up some spices that I watch on many cooking shows. I found harissa, ancho Chile, and Chinese five spice....these are not found in local grocers. I love tea and currently looking for pau d'arco. While I couldn't find it here, there are a variety of other organic herbal teas to choose from. Of course where's there tea, there's coffee and liquor. Thought I'd just slip that in for the drunkards lol. So, heading to the register, I found an area with lots of baking goods. Since I'm learning new baking skills, I picked up some items to test them out. Naturally, homemade is always best but I was curious to see what a double butter pie crust mix entailed, so I got that too. This was my second time here and I actually like this store. I'm sure I'll be back but if you're looking for something different, you'll find it here.

They have a new app which I was surprised to find out I had three 10$ coupons awaiting me at checkout. I shop here for international food items and holiday must haves. Occasionally I will pick up some jewelry, a basket, bedding or greeting cards. They're British offering of food stuffs quenches my desires; I also grab my Christmas crackers here during the holidays. They also have one of the largest Haribo collections in the city and at one time this was the only place you could buy gummy bears. A little know secret is their "birthday cake" pancake mix. I'm addicted after receiving it from a friend. I now give it as a gift with a waffle maker for Birthdays, weddings and house warming gifts. The mix is perfect. Look it's not organic, it's named Birthday Cake flavor for a reason. The wine and beer selection is quite vast and they offer discounts on multiples. I just like this store, I always have, I always will.....maybe you will too?!

Meanwhile Lowe's will work on paint until you have what you need and take anything back without a hitch. Honestly, it's mostly always the older man who's been working there for years, who is unfortunately probably a manager. Everything is overpriced (as to be expected), but just this morning I went in to exchange a $35 QUART of paint (which is crazy) because I got the wrong sheen last night. I hardly even touched the paint and told him I'm sorry I just got the wrong sheen and he basically said too bad so sad. Looking my can of paint up and down like it was an alien. I said nothing but thanks anyway and left and I will not be back. Why would I want to buy overpriced items to then be treated like a nuisance instead of a customer just trying to get what they need? Anyway, don't come here unless you have money to throw away so you're not treated like a rat for making a mistake buying their products.

Don't be impressed because my handyperson skills are limited. LOL! The lower level has all your hardware needs and the upper-level carries kitchenware and other fun household accessories and gadgets. I recently came here to have some keys made and received an enthusiastic greeting from Kim. She had a wonderful, upbeat personality. I handed her the set of keys, and she was kind enough to color code them for me with little stickers so I didn't have to guess which one was what. I came back a few days later for another item and once again received excellent assistance from Kim. On all my visits, the staff has always been helpful and friendly. Kim goes above and beyond and deserves a little extra shout out. I also love that Mary's is dog friendly. They have complimentary treats and a water bowl for your furry friend.

They also have a quality selection - not just the picked over scraps from a store closing or out of season leftovers.

If you do need a fair amount of assistance, try getting there at either a slower time or scheduling an appointment with a decorator. I had an appointment with Tamara Guffrey and she listened, to me and gave me her undivided attention. She is a very talented and experienced decorator, having worked uptown for years. The tile we selected matches my granite well at a price comparable to big box stores. Installation was quick and flawless. Her whole team, Judith, Miguel (installer) were great as well.

While I was looking at the gadgets and water bottles she was looking at everything from jewelry to furniture. One of the girls asked me if I was looking for anything in particular and I told her we had been looking for some end tables for our bedroom for months and just could not find what we wanted. Within 15 minutes we had catalogs in front of us and multiple pieces that we liked. Ended up ordering a set for a great price and will have them delivered before Christmas. Note for the guys: Had been pulled into shopping in furniture stores multiple weekends which took away from guy time. If we had just gone here first I would have probably cut a few strokes off my game. Double thumbs up to the girls at Jade!!!!
