I never took possession of the items in question so I called back to tell them they were no longer needed. As per their website as long as they are returned within seven days, they are entitled to a full refund. Harry brought the return policy up and Dolores told me "well there is a restocking fee". Dolores made up her own rules and decided this purchase warranted a 25% restocking fee. Nowhere on their website is that Explained, nor was it explained to me verbally. Be cautious when purchasing. Slight correction Wally as well as Dolores both make up their rules on the fly. Nowhere on their website is this stated but my credit card company is already on it so all is well.

This was such a great gift shop! They had so many cool South Carolina related items that I wish…read morethat it was its own standalone store. I loved their selection of South Carolina hats, artworks, household items, clothing, etc. Also, as a philatelist, (one who loves mail) this is one of the few places in Columbia to buy postcards (and they're affordable as well!) They also had a lot of cool Carolina and Clemson merchandise, as well as items that highlight the history of the state of South Carolina. All-in-all, it was a great store, and my only complaint is that it's not its own standalone location! Would highly recommend!

Cotton Mill Exchange is often thought of as the gift shop located within the South Carolina State…read moreMuseum. However, it's really more than that. It doesn't just handle museum related items and souvenirs. Its inventory is related to everything of the entire State of South Carolina. As they state, they've "...explored every corner of the state to bring you the best of South Carolina," and from what I've seen they have done that and then some. It's a really big store and has most everything one can think of that would be South Carolina related and most of the goods are of superior quality, not just cheap Chinese built trinkets. But the best part is the selection. They have everything from jewelry to clothing to home decorator items and the staff is more than willing to assist. It's really one of the better shops I've seen within or a part of any public museum.

I really appreciate that while I was leisurely exploring the store nobody followed me around, repeatedly asked me if I needed help, or had their eyes on me as if they were assuming I was going to steal something. The only time I had someone in close proximity to me is when I asked questions about their products; furthermore, they just display excellent customer sercive here. I had found quite a bit of stuff for my mother and niece. The clerk even offered to gift wrap my items into a customized gift baskets tied with a beautiful ribbon free of charge. If you're in town looking for beautiful souviners I highly reccomend Uptown Gifts.

Had an absolutely incredible time at Tiny Paris this weekend. The word all around chapin is how…read moreamazing and adorable this place is, so with a friend in town, figured it was the perfect time...no disappointment here!! We thought it was a 'pour your own candle' type place/experience, but really it's a bistro restaurant that also sells amazing candles (in addition to other cute items.) We were starving, and looking forward to lunch, which was one of the most incredible meals I've ever had. Everything is made fresh to order and 'from scratch' and not only does the flavor reflect this, but every sibgle detail and aspect of the meal. We couldnt decide what to order so decided to just share everything. We started with the half baguette with olive tapenade and herbed butter. It cane out warm and the tapenade was obviously homemade...it was at this point we knew we were in for a treat! Next up was the lemony caesar salad with lobster salad added and the watermelon feta special salad. I literally licked the plate with both. The caesar dressing was SPECTACULAR, a secret recipe and perfect. The watermelon salad hit the spot on an excruciatingly hot day. Following that we got shrimp bruschetta and the marinated crab cake special over gazpacho and artichoke hearts. The bruschetta was delicious, but that crab cake was five star. With no room at all for dessert, we took in the charming decor, purchased a few items and made a note to come back asap. One note...the prices run about $20 per plate and the portions are fair, but modest be prepared to spend about $50-60 per person with a glass of wine and tip, but it is worth EVERY penny.

You can tell the owners pride themselves on personal touches and making their guests happy. The food isn't cheap but made to order freshness shouldn't be! You deserve this meal.
