This is about as close to a town square as we get here. Go in on a Fri or Sat night and the joint is hopping!
My daughter's school had a fundraiser here and the registers are so busy that they cleared over two grand.
They have a weekly storytime for tots and a Thomas table (follow the sound of toddlers squalling), plus some Thomas trains for sale, always hard to pass up.
While their prices are higher than Costco, you can buy a discount card for $25 /year which gives you 10% off and your entire family can use it. They also have great books in the bargain section.
