If you are looking to buy a Halloween costume for yourself, your kids or even your dog this is a great place to start searching. They have a gigantic supply of ready made costumes and they also have accessories for costumes in case all you need is a wig or the perfect pair of glasses. Their prices are alright, pretty standard for costumes which still seems a little high to me. A good place to start that costume search though.

I started Gymboree classes when my son was a little under six months old. In retrospect, the class wasn't really that amazing for my son (I mean, how much can you really do in a class that you can't do at home on your couch?) However, it was great for me as I met some wonderful mothers (and fathers) and made friends who knew exactly what I was going through. As my son grew, the fantastic equipment and teachers were definitely worth the expense.

this is a resturant in midtown atlanta. they have some of the best Tapas food around and the best mohito i have ever had. they do have some normal sized portions as well but i always go with the tapas. i am sure it is good too though. parking in the area can be tough, but a perfect night is to get good food at fuego then follow it up accross the street at 1150 or one of the other clubs in the area. can't beat it!

The Red Light Cafe is in a small, narrow space with high ceilings and the floor space is crowded with small, coffee house tables. The sound system is superb and so is the music they have there. If you like alt-country from Nashville, or bluegrass, this is the place to be. The only drawback is they only have shows once a week or so.

This company will send a handyman out to your house for just about any odd job. I had a difficult time finding someone to clean the gutters on my three story house, but these guys were able to help me out. They came right out and did a great job. I also was interested in having a shed built, but their estimate was a little on the high side since it would be constructed from the ground up. A shed kit ended up being a better deal. I'd recommend them for odd jobs that you don't have the time to do yourself, but need done (they use independent contractors).

This thrift store is run by the Junior League and is a bargain hunter's dream! Their regular prices are low but the best time to hit them is when they have their season 50% off sales. On my last trip I came out with 8 sweaters, 2 blouses, and a pair of wool pants. All name brands (if you care about that sort of thing) all nice.. silk, cashmere, etc. If you check out their webisite: http://www.jlatlanta.org/nearlynew/
you can find out when the sales happen.

This is one of my favorite movie theatres. The line can get long to buy your tickets, especially on the weekends but it tends to move quickly. I have found though that you can usually get into a movie, even a popular one, at the last minute. Clean restrooms, comfortable seating and accomodating staff make it nice. You can also buy your tickets ahead of time and go next door to Starbucks or the restaurant/bar in the shopping center attached to the theatre.

The AJC voted Pura Vida as the best restaurant in Atlanta in 2006 and I have to say, they're right on the money! This is a fantastic place. The atmosphere is fun and the wait staff were nice and happy to walk you through the menu. The food is phenomenal! It's a Tapas bar which means you go with friends and order tons of mini dishes to share. Each is $6 so you can be full for well under $30. The mojitos are homemade and delish.

The customer service was extremely great and quick!!! I had little time to buy a tank with full supplies and the fish I wanted isn't the easiest to find. But they had the fish and they helped me get everything I needed for the tank!! They even managed my money to make it work for me without telling me how THEY think it should be done. I bought a tank and for a small price they are even going to ship it and assemble it!!! Thanks again for everything!!!!!!!!! I'd buy there again for sure when I upgrade my tank to a bigger size!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My boyfriend and I usually do our grocery shopping at the Publix, and we've been eyeing Amaryn's for a while, not sure what to make of it. We finally decided one Sunday afternoon to get some dinner there before doing our usual weekly shopping. The decor was a bit of a turnoff as well as the music, but we went ahead and ordered. I got the Mussaman Curry, and my boyfriend ordered a custom noodle bowl with chicken and lemongrass broth. We found a spot to sit, and I was a bit anxious since most of the customers coming in were waiting for takeout. After about 10 minutes, we both got huge servings of our food. The bowls were just heaping and steaming with food! This was the exciting part. The flavors were intoxicatingly good. I was surprised that all the flavors in my curry were so well balanced, the rice was perfectly prepared too. The noodles that my boyfriend ordered also were delightful. Amaryn's seems short staffed, which usually equates to really slow service and a long wait, but we were really pleasantly surprised, and the food was really good too. Great thai for a great price and convenient to boot!
Pros: Excellent flavor, convenient, outdoor patio
Cons: Decor, music
