If you can get past the thought of overpriced stuffed animals, this is a fun place to visit. The animals are very cute but the whole concept can suck you in and you end up paying a whole lot of money for a stuffed animal. Sure, the clothes are cute, but is it really necessary to outfit the bear or dog or whatever for $30+? I admit my kids used to drag me into this store because they "had to have" this or that, but I put my foot down and said I'd rather buy them a savings bond. It can sit on the shelf or be thrown in the basket just like the dog/cat/bear would have been and in ten years, it's worth more than we started with. This may be too harsh, and I love stuffed animals, but BAB can cost a small fortune if you're not careful. Nevertheless, the employees at this location have always been very pleasant and patient.
