They have some very unqiue items and clothes! The stores smells wonderful from candles. prices are a bit high, but the items are so nice you don't mind paying a little bit more. I have found some great cultural items from all over the world, many items have little index cards near them so you know what they are and how to use them. The best part is most of it is one of a kind, things you never see elsewhere. Great!

I lvoe this store! Not only do they take your childrens clothes and toys they give you cash on the spot! I buy my sons great clothes there and love there sales. After seasons they have terrific clearance sales which I stock up for next years season. They make it easy to afford clothes and toys your kids want without breaking the bank. I've always been treated nicely and they talk with the kids. They even have a kids play area while you shop, its all boxed in so they cant get out and you can shop stress free!

This place has been around forever! Everyone there is just so friendly and helpful. They go the extra mile to make sure you get what you are looking for - even when you're not sure what you want. Not to mention it's easy to get to. Right next to the Skiff Street/Whitney Avenue intersection - it puts you right near everything!
Pros: friendly staff, wide variety of flowers and plants
Cons: parking (not nearly enough)

The Barn Sale is a consignment store that is open for not very long each day (it closes at 2 most days) and run by nice old people. The prices are usually pretty low to begin with, and they get cut in half when an item has been there a month. I've never found any clothing there that I liked (I've had much better luck at the Goodwill right down the street), but I occasionally find something really cool in the housewares department. I imagine a lot of the items are from old people, and thus the clothes are not interesting to me but many of the housewares are old enough to be "retro" and thus fit my tastes.

Best Video is a video store in Hamden, Connecticut that is famous with film lovers from as far away as New York City. In short, the saying goes that if you cannot find a film at Best Video, it is not to be found in America. Unlike the major rental companies, Best Video carries films foreign, obscure, well-known, historic, plain old and almost forgotten, and, oh, yeah, the odd blockbuster here and there, as well. It is a staple for most film research for students of nearby colleges, and, as they offer an invaluable rent-by-mail service, for some students and experts from places not quite so close.
In short, this is one of the very best video stores in the US.

I purchased a rat from PetCo, and she was a WONDERFUL pet.
Petco advised me to get her a cage that she COMPLETELY outgrew (the wheel in her cage ground her shoulder blades raw even though PetCo said she wouldn't get too big for it).
Additionally, she suffered nerve damage from being picked up by her tail, and came with free mites, which also gave her a bacterial infection that led to a permanent head tilt (her equilibrium was permanatley damaged). Also, she was being housed with some males...I am VERY lucky I didn't pick a pregnant rat. She died of at 1 and 1/2 years old, and PetCo said she'd live to be 6. The vets suspected it was because she had been overall very unhealthy. She was a 500$ rat by the time I was done with the vets.
I do not know if they treat their hamsters/gerbils, ferrets, etc. like they do the rats and mice, but I will NEVER buy from them again and support the cruelty they display to their feeder pets.
They breed their rats and mice to be snake food, NOT to be acceptable pets. They breed them for quantity, NOT quality! I understand snakes need to eat too, but PetCo should not give people the hopes of having a long term pet, when it is an OBVIOUS lie.

Like the name says, it's the Best Video store in the world! They have everything and then some. Located in a small shopping plaza in Hamden, Best Video has a great selection of both Hollywood and independent releases. Films are located by country, subject and director. Best Video has great prices and two days a week it's buy one/get one. If you're lucky enough to live close to this place you'll always have something to watch. And the staff are more than happy to help you find that old film you can't quite remember the name of.
