The staff, however, was very friendly and the gentleman I spoke to was curious as to what I needed and if he could start carrying that kind of stuff for me. Obviously this blew me away! I have never been asked what's good to what products I like and if I had any suggestions on what to carry. The level of personal service and willingness to work with me in order to get what I want here in Santa Fe was excellent! I will definitely be shopping here again. Not only that, I just can't help telling everyone I know about this great experience!

My whole day brightened with this little 'errand,' made a visit in the first few moments.
