I know I can come here for high quality gifts for my friends and family that they love time and time again. There are a range of products to select from- both for older and younger audiences, which makes it a great spot to buy for multiple people. I especially enjoy having a local spot that makes buying from other smaller businesses accessible, so Lou Lou's is a 10/10 from me!!

Who woulda thunk it? An independent toy store in Hickory, right on Union Square! From the outside,…read morelooks can be deceiving. You might think it looks like a consignment shop or the like. Inside, however the place is kind of magical. The first thing you see when you enter is a large display of toys made from recycled plastic, complete with dirt and tools. Everywhere you turn, there's another awesome, well put together toy or baby gear display. The merchandise is divided by age appropriate items. Just when you think you're done, there's a large circular staircase down to another level, where the toys for older children are located. One of the best things is how "hands on "kid friendly it is; it's a total no judgment zone! Tons of sample toys have been laid out for kids to actually play with! The next great things are the prices! Very fair and reasonable - not boutique prices like you might think! Great place to pick up a gift for a kid you love!

Gymboree... yeah , yeah, I have to admit your clothes are pretty cute but some are just over the…read moretop too "matchy matchy". Their stuff looks a lot cuter on babies and toddlers than older kids, but that's just my opinion. Lots of cutesy stuff with appliques and stitching. This particular store on a corner is jam packed with merchandise. There is generally a good clearance section; sometimes they just give up and put them in boxes. The employees are always polite and welcoming. Decent store and location. Good for baby shower gifts.

I went into the store to buy some things for my nephew. I saw two baby walkers behind the counter…read more I asked the lady if they were available. She stated that they had not bought them from the customer yet. So I kind of waited around the register looking at things. I watched two people come in and I heard them take the offer and both times she said walker. So I knew they were available. This girl had her back to me and put a sticker on the walker I wanted. And I walked up and said oh great is it available now? She turned around and said oh no it's not but this other one is. She handed me an older kind of more used one that didn't even have a sticker on it. Then her little friend tried to ring me up with it right then. I told her I wasn't done shopping. Then I watched this girl put the walker upside down on the floor. I asked a family member to go see if they would sell it to her. Same thing oh it's not available. Idk if she was saving it for someone or she wanted it for herself. But it was the only boy Mickey Mouse walker in the store. I ended up buying him a pink one from there just so he would have one at my house. I was ticked and I'm calling because that is ridiculous. I was going to buy him a bunch of stuff from there but I ended up just getting the walker because it pissed me off so much. Here is the walker when she took it and flipped it upside down.

The selection of clothing is just adorable. They offer more than children's clothing. Inside you can find Doterra essential oils, handmade soaps and lotions from a local artisan, diaper bags, backpacks, a small selection of jewelry, tumblers and a large selection of tee shirts (infant through adult sizes) ready to be personalize with vinyl or embroidery. The owners, Lori and Robbie were friendly and a pleasure to meet. When you visit, you will be greeted with a smile from one of the sweetest business owners you will ever meet. I will be back.

Prior to this last experience I would have recommended this store but after meeting the owner and…read morediscovering her business style, I will NOT be shopping this store again. Yes the selection is wide, and cluttered with kiddie items of all sorts which is why so many rave about this store. The previous experiences, I have had lovely interactions with the other clerks but the owner is horrible! I recommend that if you intend to purchase an item, make sure to check the prices because if the owner doesn't feel it is fair to her consignees, then she will raise the price on the object. I bought a infant carrier which was marked down to 12.50, Great Deal.. I thought until I went to the register and the owner deemed the price was to low. It was marked down to that price on the tag but she refused to honor it. It is a present for my husband so I went against my better judgement and purchased it at $25. Then as I was walking out I asked if she had a Facebook page which she snidely replied "Yes, remember you bought it!" What a poor display of customer service and business acumen. BUYER BEWARE!!!!! Also, all sales are final so be careful if you intend to shop here.

I have bought many items from this boutique, the customer service varies from good to very bad. I…read moretry not to hold that against the boutique itself because every sales person does not have the same level of customer service but today will be my last day in this boutique due to their terrible return policy. I bought an item right before the COVID-19 shut down so of course I could not return it within the seven day return policy that they have in place. Seven day return policy I think is ridiculous anyway especially for people that may be from out of town. I pointed that out to the sales person working today and because they have been open for over two weeks since the shut down she said they couldn't return it. I have looked several times to see if they were open since shut down and today was the first time I saw them open. So if they are willing to lose a customer over a $20 shirt when I was prepared purchase 4 other ones and a dress then so be it .....I'm done with them! They get a -5 stars from this customer! To be clear I don't hold the sales person responsible, I hold the person whom she called on the phone to ask about that exchange responsible and I'm assuming that was her manager. I think most Retailers have been very flexible with exchanges and the time frame of exchanges due to Covid 19 pandemic shut down. Had she cited the reason she couldn't take the return back was because of COVID-19 and I may have reacted differently but that wasn't the reason I was given.
