Very good selection of back issues, current issues, and action figures. There's even a huge back room with a nacho bar and drinks for table top game sessions. Nice local shop, go support!

Friendly owners. Clean and great looking shop. There just isn't much of a selection of comic books…read more Only a few issues of what they have. Back issues are mostly 90's bargain bin stuff. I wish they'd expand their comic selection and I'd actually frequent this place.

Although I didn't end up buying anything, I will surely make a stop next time I'm in town because they did have a good selection of back issues. I will say they have a very nice selection of graded comics if you're into that. They are located to the right as you walk in. If you're a local, you may already know they have a $35 monthly membership program that allows you access into their speakeasy, games area, and gives you discounts on merchandise.

Hobby Lobby

Who doesn't love this place. If you are a crafter or looking for original decor, this is the place…read moreto be.

I had never been here before, despite hearing about Hobby Lobby for what seems like eternity. As a…read morecraft junkie, I imagined it just like Michaels. However, it is not. Hobby Lobby is a mix between Michaels craft store and World Market and Pier 1. It has fancy furniture for purchase, tons of kitschy decorations, and the occasional crafting project spewed about. I came here to make a "coffee station" I had seen on pinterest, but to my surprise the metal basket that hangs above the furniture, not even the coffee cart itself, just the basket thingy was $99! I nearly panicked and abandoned my project altogether, instead refurbishing and cleaning off my kitchen counter to make better utilization of my space for coffee needs. Hobby Lobby is the kind of place you LOVE to window-shop, and perhaps buy things that are super expensive, or if you are lucky and on sale, maybe to get ideas or abandon them as I did. I do want to go back. I think that it expanded my idea of crafting, as they have so much furniture and decor too. I'm pretty sure they have coupons too, I hope.

We went to our local florist in the Seattle area to order an arrangement to be sent to a family…read moremember's funeral in Monroe, LA. The cost of the arrangement itself was $125, prior to taxes and fees. I'm sure the florist must not have expected us to ever see the flowers, for what else would explain the fact that our $125 got us a bunch of carnations, baby's breath, and unopened lilies plopped in a vase in the most simple and mundane arrangement possible? I'm TERRIBLE at flower arranging and could have done a better job than this. After we got home, we let our local florist know how bad the arrangement was, and they reached out to Brooks Florist to discuss it. Brooks was completely unsympathetic, even a bit snotty about it, and refused to credit back anything for the less-than-lackluster work on their part. DO NOT TRUST your care and dollars to this florist. Your loved ones (and you) deserve much better.
