What an awesome find! Great service and specialty items. From candies to coffee to baking supplies and spices, this place has it all. The smells are incredible and prices more than reasonable. A fun place to stock up with snacks before you travel on those long car rides or just getting ready to stay in and watch a movie/game.

Every time I shop here, I’m reminded how much I love it! Prices are very affordable and the selection is incredible. Fantastic customer service. Bring your own containers/jars or they have bags you can use.
