I wanted to buy so much stuff for my friends' kids and I but instead opted for just a few items. I purchased a LCR game kit, two toy planes, a sticker booklet and some NBA trading cards.

She logs all items purchased manually which was impressive. We had a great experience and I highly recommend paying a visit when in the area!

Look for the Bear with the sign!! You walk upstairs and prepared to be WOW'd! There is so much to see, plan to spend some time upstairs. Each little corner is a different shop with different items for sale. Even sports items! great for gifts or souvenirs! We loved some of the metal signs! Everything seems strategically placed and posed in a way that makes you want to buy it all! There is plenty of cameras watching, because there is one cashier. The items must be tracked somehow, as you can sometimes tell if you are venturing into a different vendor, but it looks like one store with a variety of stuff for sale, rather than 20+ different vendors. Perfect for someone who rents out a portion to sell their hand-made or custom gifts. We all ventured off and spent our own time looking at the different vendors' items. Items are decently priced and would definitely go back and spend more time looking around, we were heading out to dinner so browsed quickly.

Some of the things are a bit outdated but you'll find some gems here and there. It seemed like it was more figurines than ornaments. So many things on displays for any types of Christmas style. But wandering through the isles and seeing all that is Christmas things always put a smile on anyone's face. When I say loads of Santa, there was all types. From small figures to table tops Santa to full on life size Santa. A cute little holiday shop all year round.

She had moved to Big Bear almost 10 years ago and loves it here. I can't wait to be up here during the winter again! When you first walk in, you're overwhelmed by the holiday spirit, and she has some very unique holiday themed items and not only Christmas but a section for Halloween! Some items are pricey. Some items are reasonable. You have to go through them all and they're all just fabulously fun and festive! Love all the upside down trees! The pictures do not do this place justice!

While they didn't have the one I was looking for, they had another one I was interested in. I asked how much the figure was and was quoted $200.00 (plus shipping). I went ahead and purchased the figure. Unbeknownst to me, they had the figure on their website on sale for $183.99. I called the following day because my debit card payment had not gone through. At that time, I asked them if they would honor the sale price of the figure. I fully expected them to do so, since it seemed like an innocent mistake. Unfortunately, they claimed that several people were interested in the figure at full price and therefore would not sell it for less than $200.00. I'm very disappointed with how they conduct business and treat their customers. I was very excited about the purchase and this left a bad taste in my mouth. Please be wary and check their website before making a purchase over the phone.

I love supporting small businesses. But I'm not sorry about my 4 star review (which is 1 more than…read morewhat I was originally going to rate). Items are pricey, but adorable. Don't get me wrong - I shop at Nordstrom's and Bloomingdales but wouldn't want to spend $22 on a Christmas dress. Books are cover price, which I can purchase at B&N and use a coupon for a discount. I've been searching for a stroller and saw they had 1 on the floor. I asked the 2 sales girls by the register "is the stroller on the floor new?" I can understand if that came out rude. I should've asked if it was the last one - because I noticed some discoloration - and didn't want to grab the floor/ display sample. One of the girls (with blonde hair) had a stern look and said they had more in the back. Her expression left a sour taste but I still wanted to purchase it. I wanted to make sure it was okay with my husband so we came back later to look at it. He tested it out (pushed around and closed it). I asked the same (stern) lady if this was how the stroller work and she said yes after testing it out herself. She was about to ring up the floor model when I asked for a new one - just so I don't take the floor model. I can sense the roll in her eyes as she said okay and pushed the stroller aside. I said I was going to put it back and she said "it's fine" and stormed off. Strike 2. The stroller is what we wanted and at a very reasonable price compared to Target and Walmart. I'm all for supporting small businesses and you can't please every customer but I felt like I wasn't being rude or harsh when asking for a stroller.

You get the feeling that they're eyeballing you & all I was doing was browsing and snapping pictures for my review. I didn't buy anything, although the prices were reasonable considering the location. Reading other reviews a lot of other customers were uncomfortable as well. It seems like there are too many stores in Big Bear that obviously have that as an ongoing situation. It's too bad there's so much theft going on or so much distrust. Not sure which but I hope they resolve it. Although I was greeted with a hello, how are you?

TLDR: Store tried to charge higher price than what their price tag stated and when asked, they…read moredeclined to honor their own pricing. The item (gloves) was tagged with one price. When I went to pay, they attempted to charge more than the displayed price. When I inquired, the initial employee was going to honor the price tag. A reasonable thing to do. After seeking the manager for approval, she declined to honor the tagged price. She said the other gloves were marked with the higher price, essentially acknowledging the error in their tagging of their merchandise. Considering I don't work there and didn't price tag their merchandise, it was really confusing why that was relevant. Also, this all begs the question of how many times they do this to their patrons? Is it company policy to price an item one thing and overcharge by 33% and hope no one notices? Just honor the price tag. Not difficult. You did it, not me. I'm a paying customer, who is in town regularly enough. I hope the $5 was worth it. You clearly needed it more than me. Bums.
