just wanted to thank you and say what a huge hit the slip and slide was this weekend. I've had…read moreseveral activities at children's parties before and nothing received the consistent use (by both kids and adults!) as this did. I had several people ask where it was from, so I'm sure it'll bring you additional renters :-) Additionally your staff that setup the slide were great, too. Thank you again, and we will be future repeat customers for sure.

We tweaked one and restrung another and Lori was so helpful in suggesting how to fix them and how to care for them. While she was finishing one I kept finding one beautiful thing after another while searching my brain for who I could give them to! Almost everything is from local artists, including Lori, who makes gorgeous beaded jewelry. One item will make you laugh out loud and the next thing you notice might bring tears...that painting will soon be hanging on my wall. Enjoy!

Spirit has quality Halloween costumes, decor, and accessories. This is a pretty large store and I…read morewent a couple times during the Halloween season. It was always clean and organized. Lots of adult and kid costumes that are current and old school. Staff was helpful locating items and at checkout. You can purchase online for pickup, make sure to use coupons! After-Halloween sales 50%-75% off until Nov 3rd. Plenty of parking!

So. Rewind to October (okay, maybe September; I like to get my Halloween shopping started early) of last year and I'd just hit up Spirit in Medford. For the first time, I bought a glowing window hanging thing--a cheapo poster that magically illuminates when you shine a light behind it, showcasing creepy hauntings to passersby on the street. I got the Jason with chainsaw one in Medford, but knew I should have more. Hence my trip out to Natick. Sadly, this location had very few decorations(or pet costumes, the second reason for my visit). However, if you need a (human) costume, this location is for you. Also weird was how I tried to call them the weekend before Halloween to check on stock of an item and the phone rang and rang and rang before going to a generic Verizon voicemail. Huh.

The staff are super nice, helpful and they get my sense of humor! The other day I made a booboo while checking out and they were calm and pleasant when they had to re-ring up my whole stack of quarter yards - no eye rolling, just a deep breath and a wide smile. I was "having a day" and they couldn't have been more helpful. My latest find is their skeins of Queensland cotton worsted - the colors make my potholders sing and it has a great hand feel. I sing FPB's praises.

For example, there may be a really cute pattern in blue and green but you won't find the same pattern in any other colors. I find I can't source the majority of a quilt here. I do like that I can see solid colors in person, this is really helpful. Price per yard on all quilting fabrics is excellent. Ability to find novelty fabrics is good. Overall I find I don't do as well here as I used to do when they were in Framingham. Quilting tool selection is also limited.

Highly recommend Boston Party Adventures for birthday singing telegrams!…read more A local Boston area compare run by a guy named Joey that was super diligent and responsive. We were really struggling because the "online florist" that was supposedly "local" missed delivery of flowers ordered 5 days earlier. USPS could get the gift delivered even though it was sent a week earlier. Joey arranged to have Scott come to our daughter's 25th birthday celebration at a local pub. Scott did an OUTSTANDING job making sure everything was coordinated as we live in Florida and were not onsite. Can't thank Scott and Joey enough for making this happen precisely as needed and without any friction at all!

It was like walking into the G.C. Murphy's store in the town I grew up in western PA in the 1970's. The blend of modern and classic toys is well thought out. I imagine the children of Holliston, MA are lucky to have such a nice place to visit in their own back yard. The owners are very nice people and I enjoyed just chatting as we patronized the well storied store. It's been a stable of the community since 1863. Look for the heart on the floor. It has a beautiful story surrounding it. My wife was drawn in to the store by the easel sign outside the store advertising Pokémon cards. Any grandparents who have preteen and teenage grandchildren know what that is. Even more enjoyable and impressive was the proprietor's knowledge of all things Pokémon! I know nothing about such things myself. As well as the toys there is a really nice selection of candy to select from. Some, that took me back to my youth again as well! We purchased a nice supply of candy and a few educational toys for our 2 year old granddaughter, and some Pokémon cards for our grandsons. They also have a charming display of big time pictures of customers who found valuable Pokémon cards in their packs of cards. As, well as lovely pictures that show how proud of grandparents they are! It's worth a visit again for sure! The real value of this store is the Owners! They are the real Gems !! PRICELESS!
