The location at Darien's train station, and selection, and quality goods, and easy parking make Wiggles and Giggles that rare gem in today's commoditized world.

ADORABLE!!! Such a…read morefresh little shop and perfectly suited to downtown Darien. Conservative children's clothing (ages 0-5, it seems) in quintessential madras, seersucker, khaki and the softest of cotton. Wonderful quality with distinctive details - a perfect little button here, rickrack trim there and a few cute crabs and anchors thrown in for fun. And the smocked dresses are as classic as the selection of books they carry. I mean that very literally! Sense & Sensibility for the under 3 set? An Alice in Wonderland colors primer? I bought a set of four in a heartbeat. Great spot to shop for gifts, special occasions or just another day in the good life.

A policy is a policy but it was not clear upon purchase and the owner was unwilling to work with me even though I've been a longtime and loyal customer.

Or they OVER buy on a trend from the 2000's....There's no variety. There's nothing that makes this place worth a visit. Most of the staff is just as uninspiring. They offer a halfhearted greeting when you walk in, but beyond that, they're completely disengaged--mostly standing around with their arms crossed, looking like they'd rather be anywhere else. Which makes sense because they barely make minimum wage, which is concerning considering how much the owner walks away with year after year. I probably wouldn't be inspired to help customers either. It's pretty obvious that the owner of this store couldn't care less about their employees--or their customers, for that matter. Unless you're looking for outdated clothes and indifferent service, I'd recommend shopping elsewhere. Go shop at the family owned business Richard's in Greenwich much better selection, happy employees and OWNERS!

Darien sport shop seems to have survived the online revolution with help from, you guessed it Santa…read moreClaus. Every year Santa comes and kids line up from across the country to sit on his lap and tell them what they want. In Darien, that could be a new Canada goose jacket (available at DSS) or a new pair of Nordic skis (available at DSS). Maybe even a new Range Rover (not available but DSS can order it). And for the adults who brave the intense December line to catch a glimpse of the big guy, they setup a makeshift bar (no charge of course) with Bloody Mary's, Mimosas, Beer, Wine, all the fixings. Back to Santa, did I mention this guy is the real deal? He claims that he runs a bird seed shop in the off season, lol. Yea Kringle, I ain't buying it. Tell those elves at the North Pole that the socks you brought me in '94 were bull$#&!. Jk I'm a good boy I take it back.

The DCA has always…read morebeen an outstanding Darien Organization because they donate to many groups and provide Scholarships to local students. Lately however there are new people who are hurting the time-honored reputation of the shop. On my last visit, I was dropping off fairly expensive clothing. A man likely in his seventies, told me in no uncertain terms that I could only bring 3 bags at one time ! He really did not seem to have any idea of the value of the items and was very rude and almost hostile! He never called any of the regular staff to evaluate the articles and I left feeling put-out and sad to say the least. In the future I will donate to The New Canaan Thrift Shop, which has a much friendlier staff, even though I live in Darien.

Whoever manages this store should be ashamed. To say it's disorganized is an understatement…read more There's literally piles of clothing on the floors. Shoes are an utter disaster. There's never anyone to ask for help. I avoid this store unless I'm desperate.

The piles and piles of random clothes- stacked higher than 5 feet on almost every display table is alarming. If that doesn't make you want to run out of there- check out The dressing room! I'd be safe to say there could be small children trapped beneath the rummage of clothing piled high. I noticed this happening at this location for some time but nothing ever improves and it has come to look like a scene out of Hoarders. So bad.

That night my payment immediately went through and I was given the address and time frame to pick up in Norwalk. We were there for maybe 5 minutes waiting for them to help another customer and then I received the chair. It was exactly as described. The staff are kind people and made this very easy. Plus I got a $400 chair for $27, can't beat it!

First, she was very rude to the customer right before me. She spoke to him like poop under her shoe and dismissed him to customer service because he was in the wrong line.

After the cleaning woman said very rude, and quite frankly, bizarre things to the customer, she proceeded to follow the customer as she walked through the store.

I know that a business has to stay in business which means that they have to sell what the people demand but a few more tasteful options would go a long way.
