I first came to cottontails because my wife ordered something and asked me to pick it up on the way…read morehome from work which was mildly out of the way. They gave me a nice drive and it was not terrible to get there or home from the shore to the New Braunfels area. The store itself is in the end of a strip mall. Inside the store. It is fairly spacious and what I would describe as well organized. I browsed around some of the items just to see what they had and it seemed like everything was in really good condition. The item we got my wife called ahead for and asked if they can hold it for a day and they were willing to do that. Which was very nice because when you have a newborn it reminds me of the Steinbeck quote. The plans of mice and Men often go awry and we just couldn't make it there the day she saw the items she wanted. The woman behind the counter was super friendly and a pleasure to interact with. All in all we really like the store for a number of reasons. Outside of getting a great deal, another big concern of ours is the textile waste and product plastic waste from getting new toys, clothing and baby items. They often outgrow them quickly and while the items may be small when you're constantly buying new contribute to landfills. Shopping at consignment shops like this are a great way to help combat that by making sure gently used goods don't end up in the garbage. We really appreciate the store and will likely be shopping here for years to come

Truly a great store. Constantly restocking items, good prices, wide variety. Reviewers that are…read morecomplaining about rude employees and inappropriate music are not representative of the DOZENS of times that I have visited this store to BOTH buy and sell items. If you are mad because they wouldn't take your stuff, one of two things is likely true. One, your stuff is not as good as you think it is. Two, you did not read ahead to find out what items they are currently taking. Remember, you are giving them things you do not want. Don't be so arrogant to assume that anyone else will, let alone someone who would like to sell them. The truth is that this is a great store, particularly for sports related items and winter gear.

This great little store opened in the space that once housed Asbury Art, one of the galleries…read moreresponsible for the revitalization of Cookman Ave and the renewed interest in Asbury Park as a cultural center in New Jersey. So I was ready to be disappointed when I walked into the retail store that took its place. But, that store is called Moxie, it kicks ass, and the people who own it and work there are wonderful. They have tons of great housewares. I walked in with a designer friend and she was impressed. Cool plates, tea kettles, cookware - all sorts of stuff. And then I went back before this last Christmas... I found all sorts of gifts for the modern baby. Great clothes from Wry Baby, like t-shirt that had sayings like "I Eat Dirt" and "Not a Girl". And the best sellers in Asbury Park, "I Love My Moms" and "I Love My Dads". (That's right, San Francisco, you don't have a monopoly on progressiveness - in fact you could learn a thing or two from Asbury Park). And there are great toys from Zolo, like the Kooshies Stacrobats. And the Huggy Buggy line of soft toys. Parents of the recipients of these toys are likely to thank you for getting toys that are cool and attractive to children without making obnoxious noises or flashing lights. This place is a great addition to the fantastic shopping on Cookman Ave. And they have an online store so you can order from anywhere. Support your local merchants - especially when they're as cool as these people.

I had not intention of buying anything when I walked in, but I left with a gift for a friend that I just couldn't resist!

The two employees there were loudly discussing their college lives and could NOT care less. I was a bother to them. After being rung up, no "thank you, come again".

They have four or five dressing rooms with a designated attendant who stayed in the area so there was no waiting for rooms to be unlocked, which I greatly appreciated. She was kind and helpful as well. All of the clothing was in good condition from what I saw. There's also a range of sizes, including plus size. The racks are organized by size and color which was incredible and makes looking for items so much easier. There were many people working at this store which was a plus, in case you had questions or needed help. I enjoyed my experience and would return if I was passing through the area however it did feel a bit overpriced to me. This store is advertised as a consignment shop, which might be why the condition of the items was better than stores like Goodwill, and the pricing was higher. Most of the shirts were about 10$, which again felt a bit high to me. I did get lucky and found some work pants for 8$. Like I said, I'd come back if I was in the area but I've enjoyed my time at other stores more than this particular one.
