“As a small time artist and DIY screen printer I really bank on experience of the team at Anthem. They have taken away the hardship and costly challenges of trying to burn screens in my bathroom. They provide an awesome service that I, personally, am happy to rely on. Customer service (I’ve had Carol)is always on point and very communicative. This service allows me to focus on my art and printing and provides the comfort of knowing an experienced team of professionals are on my side for a fraction of the cost of hiring employees of my own. Thank you Anthem”

“Hands down, Gamescape is one of the best board game stores I’ve found! During my travels, I always make it a point to visit board game stores as part of my itinerary and I never fail to grab a game or two. In Gamescape, I left with FOUR (only because of my luggage limitations)The store has a very large collection - they sell well known classics to recent additions. And to top it off, their staff are extremely knowledgeable and helpful too. A strong recommendation to anyone within the vicinity who is interested in this hobby!”

Every time I go in, I pick his brain with what to buy and he’s always patient with all my questions. Highly recommend going local for all you TCG and sports cards needs!”

“Wanted to leave positive feedback here for Marcus although everyone I’ve interacted with at the shop is great! Marcus went well out of his way to teach my daughter how to play Pokémon so we could participate in an upcoming event. He is an incredible teacher, patient, and genuinely passionate about TCG.I’ve been a dreadnought member (highest tier membership) for 6 months and even tho I’ve yet to play a game of MTG on premises… I feel like I’ve gotten more than my money’s worth in discount of booster boxes and customer service. I highly recommend supporting this small business and it’s truly awesome to see what they do for the community. Cheers and ty for having us!”

“Ying Hobbies & Toys it's the hidden gem you never knew you needed! My wife stumbled upon this treasure while on a quest for Gunpla goodness, and boy, am I glad she did. Tucked away in a cozy spot, Ying Hobbies & Toys might play hard to get at first, but once you lay eyes on its bounty of plastic wonders, you'll be hooked. The store might be small, but it's bursting at the seams with an array of model kits that'll make any Gundam fan's heart skip a beat. Seriously, choosing just one model feels like trying to pick a favorite child - impossible and bound to hurt someone's feelings. But fear not, the guy running the place is pretty helpful. With his guidance, navigating through the sea of model kits becomes a breeze! Oh and the pricing is super fair specially for all the cool stuff you can find. So, if you're a Gundam enthusiast or just someone who appreciates the art of model kits, do yourself a favor and pay Ying Hobbies & Toys a visit. Trust me, it'll quickly become your go-to spot for all things Gunpla. Happy building, fellow plastic yelp warriors!”

“Everyone is super nice and knowledgeable here, and the prices are so reasonable! I'm super shy but everyone here put me at ease. I was looking to create a fish tank cover with cutouts for my filter etc and Junior turned out also to be an aquarium enthusiast! I didn't come in with questions, but he educated me on the thickness of the acrylic meant to go under LED lights and heated water, whether or not it'll bow over time, how much light will pass through to my plants, and so on! He's so nice and patient, and made sure that my cover was the perfect dimensions. The cutouts are an additional $5 for each in addition to the price of the rectangular acrylic and the entire custom piece came out much cheaper than the pet shop.In addition, Edgar and one other person (sorry, I forgot his name!) helped answer questions about other pieces in the store and their customization. The plastic containers = food safe, great for use as travel bottles, and basically wholesale price--how could you beat that?”

“I've been going to this place since 2017 when I started to get back into Magic the Gathering. I loved going to their weekly Legacy nights.As time passed, my interests have shifted. I have traded cards in to try Warhammer 40k Kill Team. This place is also my go-to for Magic the Gathering pre-release and to buy singles from the new sets.They always have a good selection and I love coming by and taking a look in their shelves.”

“Wow, they have so many games there, and the salesman could tell us about each game. I loved the variety, and commentary he would give us, to help you choose the best games to buy. Some prices comparable to Amazon, so it's nice that you get the live review before buying.”

“Such a friendly and welcoming staff! I came in randomly to find a cute comfort stuffed animal for my mom while we grieve my father's ascent to heaven/the afterlife. I wanted something sunny and happy-looking while also huggable. The guy with the cool haircut with the shaved sides showed me several great and cute options and helped me find the exact type of toy I was looking for. I appreciate his patience and empathy while we toy hunted. I will definitely be back for the great customer service and their extensive Pusheen plushie collection!”

“I came here to pick up a package that UPS couldn't deliver. I didn't realize that they are a drop off and pick up point until now.

The Michael's store is large, clean, and relatively organized. They have huge selections of all kinds of arts and crafts materials for projects. It looks like they also have a room for art demos and another room set up for a birthday party.

Overall, it was fun browsing through their aisles and thinking of future projects to do!”

“Great spot! When I lived behind this Plaza, I would occasionally go in and ask about Nolan Ryan cards (my favorite player).I've walked by a few times when they had signing events and I really think that is cool.”

“This is my go-to place for anything arts and crafts related. Honestly, you'll find a lot of stuff here that you never knew you needed until you walked around. They have a lot of baking and decorating supplies but a little pricy for me. They have a lot of paints to choose from if you're painting a piece or working on a project for school. The people who work here are super helpful if you have any questions or need help finding anything. The store is kept pretty organized and clean. I think it's pretty easy to find stuff. I highly recommend going here. They used to offer various classes from cake decorating and stuff. Not sure if they still do post-covid.”

“So when you need the flag of a small European nation for a protest that very day, Judy's Flag City is the place to go. Judy also arms her customers with the info that flagpoles can in some cases be considered weapons at protests, just so they are aware of potential risks and can make a plan.”
