I was happy to find out that they do, and that they charge the same price that Charlotte's Web does (unlike Botanica, which marks it up $6). I've always ordered directly from CW, but only when they have a sale or free shipping deal. I didn't want to pay full price and shipping, so Walsh to the rescue! The store is small but they have a lot of options and it's well-organized. They have an online store as well for non-local folks. The sales associate was super helpful directing me to what I was looking for, and they have a rewards program so you can get coupons and cash back at different thresholds. Great location, too, with plenty of street parking options. I'll definitely be back now that I know they keep the ginger gummies stocked :)

Ever since I started making gluten-free bread myself, I buy most of my ingredients here since you…read morecan buy them in small, loose-weight quantities, so you don't have tons of bags with starches/flours/baking sodas etc. cramming the cupboards. I also like that they have the Earth Balance soy-free variety of the vegan butter, since that one is hard to find in supermarkets. And I buy loose-weight jasmine tea here too. Now I've discovered that the owner makes and sells his own samosas here every day -- both regular and gluten-free -- and they taste fantastic and are very reasonably priced ($2.29 each + tax). They come with the two classic red and green Indian sauces. That's a great deal.

Cute little store full of CBD related products. I knew I wanted to check this place out, so I did…read moresome at home research first about what CBD was good for and came prepared with questions and ailments that could use some relief (i.e. muscle pain, eczema, menstrual cramps). Their stuff does not have THC, so you're NOT going to get high! This place seems pretty popular (especially amongst seniors!) and there was always someone else shopping around while I was in there. There was only one staff person working when I walked in. She was very helpful and gave me a lot of attention after her first customer wrapped up their purchase. The prices seemed reasonable and I was able to take home samples of a couple products I was interested in, so I could try them out before committing to buying larger sizes. I don't think they make any of the products; instead, they have taken a lot of time to vet the products they have on display. Plus, the staff has tried many products and can provide anecdotal reviews.

Such an amazing experience. I went during the summertime and it was a walk-up type of window…read moreexperience. Stepped into the store and a desk stopped me from continuing further. Thankfully, I checked out the website and made a list of the things I wanted to buy in store. I was in the area already which is why I didn't do online pick-uo order. One of the store owners was helpful in letting me know info about the products I was choosing. They even helped me choose a tincture that would best fit what I was using the cbd oil for. Picked up some chocolates and tea along the way. Because my experience was so good here, it'd be safe to say I will continue to support their business and rave about them to friends. No matter if you've tried cbd products before or it's your first time learning about them, I highly recommend coming here. Your questions will be answered as best as the owners/shop workers can answer them.

A-ok. I stopped in to get some supplements and found the couple I wanted fairly easily. When I came…read morein, the employee greeted me and let me know I if I needed help to let him know. I found some things pretty easy, but ended up not purchasing anything in store and instead looked online. In part that was because I was on my lunch hour and couldn't find things, and then when other customers were in I wasn't going to barge in and demand his attention. Also, one of the items I wanted was BOGO free, but there was only a single bottle of it so I needed to get it somewhere else. I can't help but wonder if it's something they only have one bottle of, because when I looked online for curbside pickup I found other stores only had one as well. I ended up having to get that item shipped to me. The store is very neat and tidy, which makes it pleasant to shop, but I hate that I have no idea where to begin with some things. For me, it's just easier to buy online for curbside pickup at the store.

My New Year's resolution for 2020 is to focus more on my overall health and well-being. The way I…read moreplan to accomplish this is to work on taking care of myself from the inside out. I discovered the Vitamin Shoppe a few years ago but only managed to make regular trips recently. Instead of depending wholly on pharmaceuticals for my health, I decided to look into holistic medicine. The Vitamin Shoppe carries a multitude of supplements ranging from anything that ails you to nutrition enhancers. I've found beneficial herbal supplements such as Turmeric and added them to my daily multivitamins. After a few weeks, I've noticed dramatic changes in my energy levels in addition to my hair and skin. I've even discovered a few aromatherapy essential oils to add to my humidifier/diffuser. The staff at every location I've visited are very friendly and helpful. There's always someone nearby asking if I need help with anything. There have been times when I had to ask about a product's function and each time, the employees I've met are knowledgeable about what they sell. If they have a not in stock item found on their website but not on the shelves, they make an effort to order it online and send it to your home free of charge. Their quality attention to the consumer is what I value about the chain and it's that level of consistency which makes me a loyal visitor. Overall if you're looking to be health conscious in the New Year, the Vitamin Shoppe is one of the best places to start.

The people who work at GNC are either paid solely on commission or waterboarded for weak sales…read more Every time I go to one of these stores, the clerks are about as subtle as Army recruiters or gypsies. Half the time they'll follow you around making overly personal chit-chat about your body type. They always throw in a few mentions of their "superior" multivitamins, too (total bullshit -- buy a generic multivitamin and save 15 bucks). Like true carnies, they try to rope the customer into spending way more than necessary with a variety of low-grade scare tactics ("Well, that powder is okay, I guess, but if you want REAL results, you'll get the one for $59.99 instead because it has more of the essential amino acids and blah-blah-blah...") Um. Excuse me. If the less expensive product is somehow inferior, then why the hell are you guys selling it in the first place? Huh? That's why I usually order supplements off the Internet. However, one night around Thanksgiving, I needed to replenish my stash and didn't feel like waiting around for a week to get it shipped. I stopped at this GNC on the way home from work and am pleased to report that these guys got it right. The kid working there was polite and didn't creep me out by calling me "guy" or "buddy" and making unsolicited comments about my arms. He simply let me buy the product I requested and wished me a good evening. That's all it takes to get five stars these days: Boundaries, Respect and Courtesy. Note to everyone in retail management - stop forcing your employees to stall customers and use other poorly masked carnie tactics. Just repeat after me: Boundaries, Respect and Courtesy. Follow this mantra and you will survive the scourge of Internet sales.

Store was totally empty and I one customer service person was standing outside. Not a big deal figured she was just on break, so I go inside with her asking about their vape selection as I suffer from severe anxiety and was hoping to get something to help, her very first suggestion was to go to dispensary 33 down the street to get THC marijuana products. I tried to explain that I don't handle marijuana well but was looking for suggestions for helping with anxiety for which she had not a single one, I try to ask about delta 8 which is new to me and the difference between that and other CBD products for which she didn't have an answer. I ended up picking a few items on my own without any guidance from the customer service person and left. Spent $120 on items that I hope may help but who knows. I doubt I'll go back again anytime soon especially when you have other stores with very knowledgeable staff. Really disappointed to see how the store declined

The produce makes up a lot of the store's inventory, so be sure to get some of this. Before it was pretty common for grocery stores to be independent. It's getting to be like these are all chains, but not at this one. This market is committed to the local community, and helps introduce unfamiliar items to people. A long time business in the community. It opened in 2004 at this location. A few hard to find specialties like Caribbean, Latin, and West African ingredients can be found. They also have hot food service. Has quite a lot inside. It's located on Morse Avenue at Greenview and is popular with many people. They make a lot of the prepared foods made to order, so it's fresh, and there's a good selection of meats and vegetables.

Sometimes they have good sales on particular items, such as produce that's overripe. I really love their selection of prepared foods, both entrees and bakery items. Their tiramisu "Greco traditional style" is some of the best tiramisu I've ever had!! Yes, their recently implemented "bag policy" is somewhat of a hassle, but I imagine they are such a small store that theft is actually an issue. Therefore they are trying to keep their profit margins in the black and I get that! They always have homeless people outside the store, many of whom I now know by name, who are just trying to get something to eat (and they do, from me and other neighbors), but it's still a liability for the store if someone steals from them. This isn't Walmart, i don't condone thieving from local markets!

This place is a must for a little girl party. My daughter had her party here and I received so…read moremany compliments of how unique and fun it was. It's located right in downtown Algonquin and it's "house" so it adds to the charm. There are many different parties to choose from, but each one includes dress-up and a tea party. You can add makeup and hair for additional cost and each party has varying add-ons so the cost will vary, but the cost is very reasonable. This is not a place where parents stay for the event as the place cannot accommodate that many people (I def did not mind that aspect), so be aware of that. I brought my camera and told the parents I would take lots of pics and for them to provide me their email addresses so that I could forward them once uploaded. Once the girls arrive, they go upstairs to where there are racks of clothes, shoes, and many accessories to choose from with all sizes. After the girls have made their final selections, they take a picture then head to their tea party room. There, they have princess tea (which is sprite dyed pink I believe), cookies, marshmallows, cracker/pretzel mix, and cupcakes. They sing Happy Birthday there as well. After that, they change back into their clothes and go downstairs to open presents. Rebecca is a saint and does an excellent job with the party and the girls. I would def recommend this place for your next party.
