“Savor the Flavor in Sierra Madre is a delightful discovery we stumbled upon during the Village Winter fair. This cozy gift store is a treasure trove of unique Christmas gifts, showcasing an enchanting array of distinct plates, captivating books, and delectable snacks.Among the many treasures, the cheese plate gift we found for a friend was a standout choice, displaying the store's commitment to offering thoughtful and distinctive presents. However, what truly captured our attention was the diverse collection of books lining the shelves. From specialized titles like the "gut health recipe book" to engaging children's literature, the store catered to a wide range of interests and preferences.One book that left a lasting impression was Julie Small's "The Battle of Big Worries." This remarkable book ingeniously tackles the topic of managing anxiety through the endearing characters of Polly, a child facing worries, and her trusty companion, a penguin. Small masterfully weaves a tale that not only engages young readers but also provides valuable insights and coping mechanisms for handling anxiety.The heartfelt illustrations beautifully depict Polly's journey, capturing the emotions and challenges she faces alongside her supportive penguin friend. This unique approach helps children relate to and better understand the complexities of managing their worries, making it an invaluable resource for parents seeking to support their child's emotional growth.”

1557 Amar Rd # K, West Covina“Great place to get Ionized Alkaline water. You can go up to 11.5ph.This place has been in the water business for years and has the experience needed.Most places use filters to make Alkaline water. This place has $5,000 Ionizers that make Ionized Alkaline water. Big difference. At $1 per gallon, that’s cheap compared to $1.50-$2.00 for filter made Alkaline water instead of Ionized.”

525 N Azusa Ave, Valinda“We were here over 10 years ago with my sister & I, was looking for a gift giveaway after my mother's funeral. Cause everything at Rose Hills was so expensive even the little gifts giveaway. These store is just small but has a lot of Excellent Gift Giveaway Religious Precious Items. That's worthy to give to our precious family & friends. Freddy the owner who's always attentive & give excellent service! And if you want something in mind , not in his store @ the moment he will pull out his books we're he orders & try to get it for you. And the best of all create a custom rosary if your requesting a certain beads on your special rosary. Since he left us a lasting impression, my family & I needed a precious religious gift items to give away saddened to say for after my son's funeral we want to give to our precious family & friends who helped us get though theses darkest times of our life. We found these Beautiful Memories Sign In book with Mother Mary, Baby Jesus & Angel's. Loved the rosaries for our gifts giveaway. Highly recommend:)”
“Such a cute fun store--a real gem in the city of Monrovia! I always find something new every time I come in here. I often need a gift and this is the first place I come. So many beautiful pieces of jewelry, wonderful candles, great table decor. I can always find what I need at Charlie's house. Kristin is kind and thoughtful and will help you find the perfect gift. You can find special gifts here that you can't find anywhere else and the prices are great!”
“Really cute shop! The kind of shop you can browse in for hours because there are so many unique things. Great for buying gifts for my friends or for myself. Highly recommend!”
“Just bought a backpack from here. Really cute, kind of pricey, but it looks like it's a good quality so we'll see. This store is upstairs across from cotton on. Closer to the foodcourt”
“Very cute store with great selection of items that I don't get to see in other stores like daiso and miniso! Kind of like a mash between korean and chinese style rather than the usual japanese stores like daiso and miniso!”
“I've ordered from this location several times and decided to pay a visit as I was passing through California. I'm so glad I did. I was able to purchase a Hangyodon plush in person. This store has every character in stock with the exception of Usahana. She seems to sell out quickly. They are an officially licensed Sanrio store so you know you will also be purchasing items from Japan as well. This is one of the few Sanrio stores that is super organized and very easy to shop. Glad we made the visit.”
“This place is cute even for people who don't know anything about K-pop! Everything was very organized, and there was an extensive selection of BTS related merchandise. The lady working here is very friendly and excited about different bands as well. Good vibes.”

400 S Baldwin Ave, Arcadia“Excellent customer service. I played the ichiban kuji and won some prizes. When I played it and got a prize but they couldn't find it, they allowed me to pick up a new ticket. I would recommend this store for ichiban kuji because they are willing to accept a loss due to not finding my previous prize and allowing me a chance to win a big prize.”
“So this store has a great selection of anime figures. The down side is that they are rather pricey. Although they are pricey it's not as bad as other stores I've gone too were figures are $50+ their normal price. The staff there is friendly. They have alot of cute plushies aswell. If for some reason you can't find a specific figure in hot topic, box lunch or any other authorized anime merch retailer then this place is definitely worth checking out. Yes it's pricey but not as bad as other places.”
“This location has very very nice things and a very wide selection of stationary and trinket boxes , pens , accessories, plush dolls etc and lounge fly wallets and backpacks. Customer service is very nice and helpful, even though I did not buy anything yet as I am still deciding on what I will buy I will definitely be back to this location because this has been the best Sanrio store I've been to so far for their variety of items . Most Sanrio stores I have been to have been very non impressive as they offer too many plush toys and hardly any items that really make sense for the price.”
“Came in to redeem a winning scratcher. Employees were very nice and welcoming, store was fully stocked and well organized. Observed many people sitting outside scratching lotto tickets so this must be the place to strike it rich”

Westfield, 695 Plaza Dr, West Covina“I think the staff was very kind when helping me find what I call an old lady tongue ring. Also, walking around this store doesn't matter where you turn, you will have yourself a little chuckle. I love this store!”
“Visited on 08/20/22. Located inside the West Covina Plaza Mall, this place is literally every child's dream. Very small area inside but a lot of anime plushies, stationary kits, etc. I was surprised that I saw Torchic plushies (2 of them). One had plastic and the other one didn't (sample view?). Very cute and huge but overpriced in my opinion ($35 per Torchic). Overall 4/5.”

542 Plaza Dr, West Covina“There is a peaceful warrior spirit that lives inside of each child. It doesn't have to be Halloween to be a Ninja Turtle or Warrior Princess. Located directly across from the Nordstrom Rack. This store carries spiritual objects/statues, home decor and items for protection (swords etc.). There is plenty of mall parking. The store offers sales on specified items. There are areas you will need to ask to enter. But, the service welcoming.”
“I've been coming here for about a year now and I've always had a great experience. The staff is always so friendly and helpful even when I don't know what to get. Their cookies are my favorite. Their fruit is always fresh and delicious. They also offer same day delivery! 10/10!”

400 S Baldwin Ave, Arcadia“They have everything Hello Kitty. There is a new version of the fluffy stuffed animals now, but the actual Hello Kitty one was sold out, probably because it's so close to Christmas. But great store for gift shopping.”
“1st time there and the lady was very helpful. She went out of her way to help me over the phone and in person. Finding envelopes for my wedding invitations. Such a great customer service. Definitely coming back to support her business. Thank you”
