Silver Platters is a great new record store located in the Crossroads Mall. They have an extensive selection of music from many different genres. I've been able to find all of the titles I was looking for at Silver Platters.
This store also carries a good selection of DVDs. The employees I came in contact with were friendly and able to answer any questions I had. I will definitely be going back to Silver Platters next time I want to buy some new music.

I went to Flynn's Carpet Cents recently because I needed to re-carpet a single room. I was happy to see that they had a large selection of remnants, because I wanted to spend as little money as possible.
I was able to find a very nice remnant for a great price. The salespeople were very friendly, and helped me find the best remnant for the room I was having re-carpeted. I was able to get the remnant installed for a very reasonable price, and only had to wait a couple of days for installation.
I would definitely recommend Flynn's Carpet Cents for anyone needing to buy a remnant. I don't know what the pricing is like for their regular carpet, though.

I've been taking my cat to Redmond Veterinary Hospital for several years, and am very happy with this clinic. The facilities are clean and animal-friendly. The receptionists are very friendly and helpful. The doctors that my cat has seen have all been very knowledgable and professional.
My cat is now 8 years old, and is very healthy. I have to give a lot of credit for this to Redmond Veterinary Hospital. They send a newsletter once in a while, and postcards when it's time for our cat's yearly check-up. I would recommend this clinic to anyone who has a pet.

The Shoe Zoo is located near the Brat Pack and the Gymboree Play Center in the Redmond Town Center. They carry a wide selection of brand-name children's shoes, including shoes in wide widths.
I have been in there several times to look for kid's shoes, and the employees have always been friendly and helpful, even when I didn't buy anything. They usually have a nice clearance rack, if you are looking for a bargain.

Merry Go Round is a great place to browse for baby stuff. They carry a large selection of upscale baby furniture, bedding, clothing and gear (strollers, etc.). The reason I use the term "browse" is that this store is very expensive. The bedding they carry is especially beautiful. It's in a completely different league than what you would find at Target or Babies R Us, and is priced accordingly.
If you are in the market for very nice baby gear, and price is not an issue, then this is the place to shop. If you want a bargain, go to Target instead.

My kids love going to Toys 2 Cool for their large selection of Thomas the Tank Engine wooden trains and accessories. They have a train table for the kids to play with that my boys absolutely love! We rarely leave this store empty-handed.
Toys 2 Cool also has a large selection of educational toys. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to take a really good look, since my boys are always glued to the trains.
The employees are friendly and helpful. They don't mind when the kids want to stay for a long time to play with the trains.

I've been to the Spa at the Pro Club a few times. I've had a pedicure, my hair colored, and a massage. This spa (which you don't have to be a member to attend) is very nice. They have big fluffy robes for you to wear, and a very comfy area with big fluffy chairs and drinks while you wait.
The employees are very friendly and professional, and they really know what they're doing. The massage especially was very good! This spa has many services. You can get your hair and makeup done, get a manicure/pedicure, get a massage, and have a facial, all in the same place.
The only drawback is that it's very pricey. You pay 3 times what you would elsewhere for a pedicure.

My husband, as a Microsoft employee, goes to Pro Club for free, so I decided to join also. I had to pay a monthly fee, which is more expensive than someplace like Gold's Gym or 24 Hour Fitness. However, this is a beautiful gym. It is very clean, and there are tons of machines to work out on. You never have to wait to get on a machine, even at peak times. I really enjoyed working out at Pro Club.
I eventually cancelled my membership, however. The reason was that the child care is ridiculously expensive. I have 2 kids to drop off at the day care, and they charge something like $7-8 per hour PER CHILD. I understand that they have a licensed day care center, but this is way too much money for me to pay. If I wanted to go to the gym three times a week and drop off 2 kids, it would cost me a lot of money. Compare this to Gold's Gym in Redmond, who charges $2.50 per child for a two hour session. Needless to say, I'm now a member of Gold's Gym instead.
In short, if you work for Microsoft, and/or don't have kids, Pro Club is wonderful. If you have kids to drop off at daycare, you might want to consider another gym.

Half Price Books is located in a cool old building in downtown Redmond. It has books on almost every subject you can think of, for reasonable prices. I could look around this store for hours, and still not be finished looking.
Half Price will also buy books and movies from you, if you want to get rid of them. I don't know how much money they give you for the books, though, since I haven't sold any to them yet.
My kids like this store because they have a large section of children's books. They get to take something home every time we go, since the books aren't expensive.

We got all of our windows, as well as our front and back doors replaced by Keystone Windows and Doors, and we couldn't be happier. It's like we have a new house!
We worked with both the owners and the employees, and all were very friendly and professional. The owner gave us a great deal on windows, and had many interesting ideas on how to make our window choices. The employees were very nice, and left absolutely no mess at all, even though replacing windows can get really messy.
In short, if you need windows, don't bother with Sears or Washington Energy Services. Go with Keystone, and you won't be disappointed.
