Fantastic Finds!

I love Wishbone, I cannot go into the store without spending over $200. I'm totally addicted. They have the coolest and most unique items, and I always get compliments on practically anything I buy here. When I go into the store, I'm just so happy looking at all the stuff they have. They constantly get new stuff in, and the popular stuff goes fast. Great staff and fun shop.
- Pros: selection, unique stuff, great staff

If you got the dough, go here!

Fun, cool, quirky, well designed, hard-to-find products! Books, cards, candles, gadgets, toys. Great for gifts, or a self indulgent treat, or just to look around. I find it a little pricey here, but overall worth it.
- Pros: Great for gifts!, Cool/hip stuff.
- Cons: Expensive.
