Tickle Your Fancy Gift Shop

A nice gift shop with a little bit of everything; they carry Swiss jams and chocolates, as well as local Ontario honey. As well as local brand soaps, tablets and shampoos. They also carry furnitures and many toys, puzzles and stickers! Had a great time looking for gift ideas; reasonable prices and very friendly service!

During our search for Christmas gifts, we stumbled across that quaint gift store's window. The Pokémon plush of Vulpix caught my roommate's eye, so we went inside. We were greeted by the kind gentleman operating the store, and I soon found myself talking with him due to my Germanic roots and interest in his swiss imports (it's been a long time since I met someone who knew my language). 👍

For a quaint store, it features a surprising variety of products for a variety of demographics:
• Incense candles and decorative spoons,
• collectibles from Japanese/Chinese media (Digimon Season 1 figurines, Genshin Impact stickers, Pokémon and Mario plushies),
• food products, some of which were imported from Europe,
• pieces of furniture or home products,
• and much more.

We ended up purchasing 3 Nintendo plushies (#037 Vulpix, #104 Cubone, and Princess Daisy,), costing around $20 each, which was rather surprising, seeing how most stores—we saw—may charge twice as much for similarly-sized Nintendo or imported products (shipping costs, especially for imported products, can be quite costly on Amazon). The photo attached (which hopefully shows the price and the Japanese tag), was made in my apartment, because I forgot to take any photos while I was in the store, oops. 🤷‍♂

In the end, we kept the plushies for ourselves and bought different gifts for the relatives, since we—two Nintendo nerds—simply couldn't part from our new plush additions! 😅 I mean, just look at that adorable little one (#104 Cubone) with that fluffy bone! A little softie like that, needs a big softie—like me—to look after him (I'm rather paternal)! 👍

I'm looking forward to visiting the store again... once I have some funds back (Christmas can really drain your bank account, haha). 👍 Perhaps I'll buy some spoons next time... I could have sworn that some bared the emblems of Saudi Arabia (palm tree, two blades) which are featured on some of my foreign coins (my dad sent me coins, while he travelled the world as a solider).

Posted a review yesterday after my visit. Had a wonderful time browsing and buying. Owner, Martin Buser is friendly and knowledgeable. There's a wide selection of unique gifts both local and exotic. I loved the hand-knit clothing on display and the cozy vibe of this beautiful shop. Will most definitely be returning.
