Evangeline's is the place where you can find a gift for anybody and any occassion and have fun while doing it.
The place is conveniently located in the heart of Old Sacramento and at the end of Downtown Plaza and has an extensive inventory of fun gifts or gag gifts for others or even for treating yourself. While browsing the shop you can basically test out or read everything and get a kick out of doing it. I have seriously killed an hour or so just walking around the store and looking at things.
The staff is usually very nice and helpful if you are looking for something in particular, they will go above and beyond to try and assist you.
Whether you are shopping for a baby shower to bachelor or bachelorette parties this is the place to go.
It can get crowded some nights, particularly on weekends but that is what makes it fun because you know it is a cool place to be.
Evangeline's also gets seasonal favors for holiday's but for Halloween they go all out with a costume mansion where you can find any costumes or accessories for Halloween that you need.
The prices at Evangeline's are very reasonable considering you are buying novelty items that you may not be able to find anywhere else but stores such as these.
Evangeline's is a fun store and has come to use for me on many occassions so I suggest you give them a shot.

Sharif's has been in the Sacramento area for many years and is family owned and operated so the customer service is superb and flawless.
Sharif has been my parents jeweler for many years and I remember being a little boy and going into his shop with my father so he can purchase my mom a last minute Valentine's Day present, so I figured he must me good because my father will not just shop anywhere.
I had my first experience with Sharif when choosing an engagement ring for my fiance, who is now my wife, but I was very nervous during this time and was not sure what I was doing and Sharif himself basically helped me and found the perfect diamond and setting and made sure it fit within my budget. Sharif is known in California as having the largest and best inventory for diamonds and his stones are the best and the prices are even better.
Sharif does not deal with flawed stones and then try to rip off his customers, he deal only with the best. Local celebrities have been known to use Sahrif's as their diamond guy, people such as Mike Bibby, Chris Webber, and Bobby Jackson of the Sacramento Kings have Sharif as their personal jeweler so he is great.
Give him a try, he even has a slogan: "You don't have to be rich and famous to shop at Sharif's!" and this is true.

Grebitus & Sons is classified in my book as a good local jeweler because they are family owned and operated so this ensures that you will get great customer service.
However, I have purchased a couple of things from them before and although I was satisfied with my purchase and so was the recipient, but later I came to find that I might not have gotten the best price I was promised, so since then I have tried to shop around and take my business elsewhere.
But quality is their middle name because all of the jewelry they sell maintains it's quality and I have no complaints about the craftsmanship of the items I have purchased.
They are local and I would much rather support the local businesses then the chain stores so if you are like me then I suggest you Grebitus a try but please don't make the mistake I did and shop around and I think they will price match for you.

Soccer City is the number one soccer equipment store in South Sacramento. The staff is very friendly and nice and are also related to soccer somehow so you know you are getting expert information and advice.
They carry a full range of clothing and supplies for customers of all ages from young children to adults. This is an aspect that is difficult to find because it is hard to get soccer equipment for the youngsters, and Soccer City has a wide range of products for the young soccer players.
The prices at Soccer City are also very competitive with the other larger chains, however Soccer City can also provide their customers with specialized products that the larger chains can't and this is a hugh advantage for shopping here.
I always shop at Soccer City, and not only for their on the field gear but also for their replica international player jerseys that are very cool and fashionable to wear when not on the field.
Check them out.

This is a runners paradise and probably the best retailer to focus on running in the entire Sacramento area. Running is their business and you can tell once you speek with any of the staff because they eat, drink, and sleep running. Not just marathons, but trail running, and jogging.
They have an extensive inventory of specialized running gear such as shoes, clothing, socks and etc. This store serves the occasional jogger to the avid marathon runner, and the line of products that are stocked will prove this.
The prices here may seem a bit higher then your run of the mill sporting goods stores but you must keep in mind that this retailer only stocks the top of the line, high quality brands and gear.
The staff is very friendly and very open to answer all of your questions and the store is conveniently located.
Give The Running Zone a chance.

Don't get the title wrong, because at Coronet Portraits the pictures turn out great and the they do take pride in what they do, however I don't think the price you pay is worth the amount of service...
Don't get the title wrong, because at Coronet Portraits the pictures turn out great and the they do take pride in what they do, however I don't think the price you pay is worth the amount of service you recieve.
The staff is very friendly except I have received some rudeness from the receptionist at the office when I called to confirm the appointment, but everyone has some bad days. The staff is very knowledgable and are experts in photography because all of the pictures they took of us looked excellent and we had no complaints, but then the shock sets in after you come back to the studio to view your proofs and pick the packages because this is when you get to see the prices and realize how much good photography costs.
I have used other studios before and their prices were a bit more reasonable then Coronet's but to each is own and I can say that the work done at Coronet is excellent and someone else might think that it is worth their money.
If you want pictures of a very special occassion and money is not an issue then I suggest Coronet, but if you are going to take some basic pictures you may want to shop around first.

Land Park Ski has been on Freeport for many years and there is a reason for this. The reason is because they fill the niche for a winter sports shop in the Sacramento area because there aren't that many in our area. Another reason it has been there because it is family owned and operated and they take pride in customer service and to keep themselves unique from the chain stores.
I have made several purchases here over the years and have never been dissapointed because after the fact I found that the prices I paid at Land Park Ski were cheaper then what I would have paid at the chain stores.
There are also sporting goods for a plethra of other sports, but many people see this shop as a specialist in ski and snowboard gear. The shop is in a prime location off of Freeport and even the building is interesting because it is in the shape of a mountain cabin that you would see in Tahoe.
A minor negative is that their hours are very limited when it is not peak skiing season.
This store is very unique and the staff is nice so give them a try.

I have been a customer of Awesome Video, since I can remember being old enough to rent vidoes.
This place is great because I can be in and out in minutes and most new relaeases are in stock, so I can watch the new movies right when they are released. The rental dues are also a little cheaper then the chain stores, but the main reason I come here is to receieve the personalized treatment, such as the staff knowing my name when I come in, and if I forget my card they can look it up because they know me.
I have also never encountered any problems with the quality of the DVD's and videos that I have rented from them. The staff is very friendly and courteous and I am always sure that I will receive nothing but the best customer service possible.
If you are tired of the big chain video stores then give Awesome a try and I know you will not be dissapointed.

Hollywood Hardware is the quickest and best neighborhood hardware store there is. It has withstanded all of the big box competition from Home Depot and Lowe's and this is because of the convenience and service customers can expect to receive here.
The staff has always been very friendly and helpful and are very knowledgeable in what they do.
At Hollywood Hardware you can find everything you can at those other places but minus the rude customer service and long lines.
The location is also very convenient because it is right off of Freeport and there is plenty of parking. The hours of operation are ideal and I can assure you that once you shop here you will think twice before going back to the big guys.

Sacramento has many other places that can provide you with what Paper Clips has to offer and then some.
Paper clips is always under-staffed and I have never been helped in a timely manner, the staff tries to be friendly but they are typically so busy that they can not focus any attention towards their customers.
I have also been there on several occassions to get documents notarized and the approved notary public service provider seems like is never there and the staff begins to call him when I get there but I typically do not have the time to wait for someone when I can go to another place and be served promptly.
Overall, there are many other business service providers that you will be more satisfied with but if you have to use the outdated copy machines and overpriced fax services here then don't say I did not warn you.
