    Been a while since I've seen one of these stores--all the usual stuff: clothing, pins, souvenirs, collectibles, toys, watches--stuff you've never seen, and stuff you've forgotten!

    So, uh, would you care to be a little bit more detailed on what stuff they have? :)

I got a bunch of visors from the tracy one in november... It was so busy at the Great Mall one on last Sat - it was really hard to see what they really had
    I did get a couple of those pirate shirts with the skulls all over them (the juniors type). THe next one opens in San Bruno.

So your best deals will be if they have alot of an item you want in the size you want.

They have these Disney-characters-meet-the-Transformers action figure duo packs (Peter & Hook, Beast & Gaston, Simba & Scar) that were clearly meant to be The Next Big Thing, and are even more clearly cheaply made. We got a huge Chip n Dale Disnleyland popcorn pail for something like 39 cents. Uh, what else did they have--buncha Pirates things, Haunted Mansion toy figure sets, light saber-like toys...it'll be interesting to see the rotating merchandise as new stuff comes in.

And here in Grand Junction we have never had one open yet. There is one, but it is about 250 miles away and in our weather, I wouldn't even chance it. But if I were living in the Bay Area, I would take a Saturday and make the rounds. You are so lucky!!! Hope you all find some real deals!!! ºoº
