The store has thousands of records in every genre of music you can imagine. I could have literally spent hours going through each bin of records. I loved how they have older, classic albums but also, newly released albums as well. The prices vary depending on the album. After shuffling through the bins, I purchased two albums and both sounded great on my record player! The staff were really nice and I will definitely be returning to add to my collection!!!

The staff of this place went far out of their way to make sure I was comfortable during a very…read moreunfortunate experience. I bought a Jimi Hendrix hat because I thought I owed them something for their hospitality. It's a cool hat and I wear it all the time now to remind me of that strange afternoon. It was sometime in March. I'd bought a hot dog and a Dr. Pepper from the 7-Eleven on 17th Street. I ate and drank as I walked down the sidewalk and right in front of Half Moon - something happened. I have a theory about why some hot dogs agree with your stomach and some don't, but I won't go into it. It mainly deals with physics and pork farm sanitation. Anyway, this hot dog was NOT agreeing with me. I quickly finished it, but immediately regretted it. My stomach rumbled with a bewildered groan and I knew I had to get to a bathroom soon. I started to get dizzy and my body let out a loud bubbling sound. I did the "clenched cheek jog" right into Half Moon. The person behind the counter must have knew that something was wrong with me, because he pointed right to the bathroom. I tried to say "Thanks", but all that came out was a wet burp. I was in there for a good long time. I think they played a complete Grateful Dead concert recording. Thank goodness for the loud, numerous guitar solos. Upon emerging, I suggested that they should burn some incense in the bathroom. The clerk grabbed about 30 sticks and lit all of them. Somebody, I guess the manager or a customer, suggested I lie on the couch for a while and relax. I did and no sooner than 5 minutes into relaxing - I had to rush back into the bathroom! I stayed for the rest of the day, going from couch to bathroom. Back and forth and back and forth. The staff and customers were all so friendly when I explained what happened. Many shared similar experiences. We all agreed that 7-Eleven should not be in the hot dog business! They were closing, so I had to go. I will definitely be back this summer to buy some sort of bongo drum.

It's a really cool store with some of the most unique furniture and collectibles you can find in any store and probably would take you days to track down on the Internet. A five foot tall Betty Boop as a carhop waitress statue, a life sized Elvis, a huge spider lamp, modern art couches and so many other anomalies that I can't even describe, Cool and Eclectic definitely meets the expectations of its name. Having recently moved from its old Laskin Road location to two store fronts in Pembroke Mall, Cool and Eclectic has downsized on the amount of merchandise but still keeps its quirkiest and rarest items in stock. Many of the pieces are one of a kind, rare or collectibles, making the heavy price tags understandable, but still challenging for the interior design star on a strict budget. But search through the extensive selection, find your favorite piece and save up for it. It's worth the cost.

Okay first off, the countless images of "Ollie" hanging everywhere creep me out…read more Now that that's out of the way, allow me to begin my review. The claims of "cheap" stuff are only that.. claims. Just the condition of the store was questionable, as it seemed most stuff was just scattered around, aimlessly. There wasn't much I found to get, which was somewhat disappointing. It felt like a cross between Kmart, Rose's, Big Lots, Dollar General and your typical dingy little outlet store you see in 90s movies. The only thing I ended up with was a light blue bath towel. It's not bad, but I will admit that it's the only bath towel I own that had mystery stains on it after the first use. It's like it bleached itself. I didn't do anything different with it and it still rebelled for some reason. I'm not blaming Ollie's specifically, but it's still something to be aware of if you're in the market for one. Service wasn't bad during my visit. I would check other locations before I'd make a definite conclusion on the chain. However, in regards to this one?.. It's a "meh" at best.

With only one cashier on a Saturday, the checkout line wrapped the interior of a very busy store. It took almost an hour for me just to checkout. Additionally the one cashier was a very old woman who moved soooooo slowly (not her fault), so that's why it took so long - the wait for checkout was so long, several people gave up and went to the nearby Dollar Tree.
