When Beers had to move, they piled boxes of discarded books in their parking lot. I picked my way through each one of those boxes while I lived in my VW van (my attorney said flee Oroville! Do not look back...pillar of salt, etc.). Kudo's to Beers for replacing my library of classics and collectibles. Now that my property dispute with Little Miss Loosie has the court's approval, I and my wife shop at Beers about once a month, looking for tasty books for our new home and for gifts. There is not another bookstore like this in the region!

They have everything here, I believe.
A friend of mine needed a costume for the her son to where to school to do a presentation about the Renaissance. It was a Sunday and she called all over town to no avail.
I told her about Cheap Thrills that they'd help her out if they are open. I have heard nothing but good things about this place.
Sure enough, they found what they need and were very satisfied.

I didn't like this store, used to avoid shopping here. But, it's changed for the better and I now make it my Target store. It's close to my house and the people that work here are real nice and friendly. They try to help you even when they can't help you out.
The electronics department needs tweaking -- it's pretty weak -- the people in the department are out of it or lack the know-how of electronics.

Mixed Bag offers a mixed bag of gift items! There truly is a large assortment of items -- some are difficult to find, others are run-of-the-mill gift store items. They offer excellent personal service to help you track down the perfect gift from their large selection. Items include kitchen gadgets, tchokes (sp?), stationary, etc... Around the holidays, the store turns into Santa's Bag, offering an array of holiday ornaments and gifts. (Mixed Bag and Santa's Bag used to be two separate stores, but combined into one location several years ago). I love going their for a unique ornament for our office ornament exchange!

This place beats the big chains like blockbuster and hollywood video because it is owned and operated by a local who is friendly and knows all her customers. The store is pretty big with a great selection of movies. The movies and tv shows are clearly organized. The only bad thing is that there are not many copies of new releases.

Vinh Phat has one of the best staff of employees. The Asian supermarket was housed with many friendly people ready to help you. All of the workers on the floor answered my questions well and knew where all the products were. The cashiers at the checkout stands work very fast also, especially important since these places tend to get pretty busy.

I have been going to Rafael for 24 years. I have followed him from place to place and I must say this is the best place he has opened.
The decorating is so pleasant and most of his employees have been there for quite awhile so you know it must be a great place to work. It will be difficult for a new client to get into Rafael but eveyone is good there!

I thought looking for a wedding dress was going to be the best day of my life. Well, it may be for some people but it was awful for me. I felt so dumb in all the dresses I tried on everywhere. I felt like I was wearing a Halloween costume. I wanted a dress for a boat wedding so it couldn't be poofy. It also had to have yellow to remember my mom who had passed away. Nothing I saw in person or on the internet fit my criteria until my husband to be thought of getting it made.I went with a picture and a lot of ideas to Lana's Studio and very nervous began creating "the dress".They made me feel good and comfortable and really listened to all my crazy ideas.Every fitting my dress came more alive and it ws so much fun.The price was amazing for a school teacher with "bling"taste and meager means.The price was so good I decided to get a jacket and flowers for my hair.Lana's Studio is even putting my wedding date in blue inside my dress for good luck on my upcoming wedding date.This dress hunt has been great and I can't wait until my soon to be husband sees me on our wedding date.I'm so excited and can't thank them enough for all of their hard work!!:)
Pros: Creating for your special day.
Cons: Your dress is a one in a kind and so you are a bit nervous as its never been done before.

When in Old Sacramento espicially taking relatives that are out of state check out this shop as they have a wide selection of shirts for travelers. Or for anyone that wants to celebrate there love of California through there clothing. Also the location has also a great selection of other smaller California souvineers that people can buy. All of the prices are very inexpensive.
