Calvin's is a fantastic local jewelry store! My husband and I had a photo of an antique engagement ring that I had fallen in love with and wanted to try to replicate for my own engagement ring. When we brought the photo to Calvin's to see if it was possible to recreate, their staff assured us that they would be able to create a custom engagement ring very similar to the antique ring I loved so dearly.
Catherine helped us through the entire process and she is fantastic! She is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, so nice and she never made us feel pressured. The ring was created in less than a month during their busiest time of year - the holidays. When my husband proposed and I saw the ring for the first time I was thrilled, it turned out exactly like the antique ring! We purchased our bands from Calvin's as well and again had a wonderful experience. Every few months or so I go back to have my rings cleaned which they offer complimentary to their customers. I love, love, love my ring and I receive complements on it all the time! I highly recommend Calvin's for all of your jewelry needs and especially for their custom work!
Pros: Amazing service and craftsmanship!
Cons: Can't think of any...

As we stood in Kruger's doorway to shield ourselves from the cold at the Thanksgiving Day Parade, my 6 year old grandson saw the beautiful boxes displayed in Kruger's windows and stated how much his mother would love that "TREASURE BOX" for Christmas. TIme passed and on Christmas Eve, I said, "it's Christmas Eve, Matthew, aren't you excited?" He said "No" and started crying. He had not been able to buy the "TREASURE BOX" that he knew his mother would love for Christmas. I didn't have much cash that year, but when my grandson still remembered that box 5 weeks later and was sad because he wasn't able to "give" something so special - I was going to buy it any cost. Quickly we called to make sure Kruger's was open and they still had the beautiful jewelled boxes - they did. We rushed downtown as fast as we could, Matthew emptied his piggy bank on the way, I let him do is own talking and as he pulled his own money out of his pocket, I walked back across the store pulling out my own wallet to pay the difference when a "Kruger" held up his hand to stop me. He continued talking to Matthew as he counted out $1.27 total and together they wrapped up the box and Matthew finished his transaction. The actual price on the box was $65.00. This was the most beautful act of kindness and compassion I'd ever seen at Christmas. Matthew hugged his gift for his mother all the way home and carefully put it under the tree. It was his happiest Christmas ever. To be able to give his mom, the one he loved the most, the most beautful, jewelled, golden box ever was something Matthew will remember forever. This has become "Our Christmas Box Story". Thank you again, Mr. Kruger for a gift that keeps on giving and will never be forgotten.

I found Charlotte's after seeing an arrangement that was sent to my coworker. It was so fresh and gorgeous that I ordered one for my daughter's birthday. She loved it and I loved the great deal! I used their coupon they have in the yellow pages. They were so helpful and nice! They made me feel like my birthday order was just as important as the big wedding they were working on at the time I was in their shop. You just don't see customer service like that these days! I highly recommend Charlotte's Fiesta Flowers!!

Terra Toys has been around for as long as I can remember I can remember shopping there almost 10 years ago when they were located off Congress. The one positive that has always kept me coming back to this toy store is that I have always enjoyed their selection of toys for all ages and genders. I have had a lot of luck finding unique and hard to find toys that I was purchasing as gifts. I noticed in my last visit, which was awhile ago, that they had some items that I had never seen in the big retail or chain stores. This makes gift giving so much easier since you do not always know what a child may already have. I found that the prices were extremely reasonable and I am so happy that their new store which is located across from Northcross Mall is closer to my house.
