Our parent store has been entered in the nomination round for the Best of 716, but voting ends June 4th or we don't go any further! Do you have a moment to vote? We appreciate it!

If you have a moment, we would appreciate your vote! I just found out that we've already been nominated in the Gift Shop category of Best of 716, but whoo boy it's a big category and only the top 5 nominations make it through! And to make it even harder, nominations are only open until June 4th! It's a long shot, but trying is free, right? It only takes a minute to vote; we are under the Retail & Shopping heading, under Gift Shops. Thanks so much!

We're used to getting pallets here - since we are a part of Martinsville Soapworks now - but this is our first pallet of plushies!

Going to go live when we unbox these in about 20-30 minutes. Be sure to tune in and see what's new!

Which cupcake would you want to eat - Hello Kitty, My Melody, or Kuromi? I'm going to guess that Hello Kitty is marshmallow, My Melody is strawberry, and Kuromi is black raspberry!
A sneak peek of what we will have at the Buffalo Cherry Blossom Festival on April 27th and 28th (or in store now!)

Psst he's available as a backpack, too!

Fukubukuro are here!

Fukubukuro, aka lucky bags, are a Japanese tradition, where shopkeepers make collections of merchandise into surprise bags and sell them at a discount. So of course we have to continue the tradition! Our bags are full of all kinds of kawaii stationary, plushies, socks, and loads of other great goodies, all at least 30% off the original prices. Purchase $75 in fukubukuro and receive a free little gift!

Don't delay, stop in to our new location at at 908 Niagara Falls Blvd (at the Wurlitzer complex, next to Woodcock Brothers).
