Show 'Em No Mercy!

UNO Show 'em No Mercy game adds 56 more cards, special rules and super-tough action cards for the most brutal edition of UNO ever!

Tougher action cards, such as Skip Everyone, Wild Draw 6 and even Wild Draw 10 make game play merciless!

The Stacking Rule lets players pass the penalty (Draw +2, +4, +6, +10) to the next player until whoever can't play has to take all the cards combined!

Whenever a '7' or a '0' card is played, players must swap hands with another player!

The Mercy Rule means that if any player gets 25+ cards in their hand, they are out of the game!

More cards mean more chances to show opponents absolutely no mercy!

Let's Make Some Changes for Earth Day!

Happy Earth Day! Celebrate the world we live in, celebrate nature and celebrate the beauty in all things. We need to strive to keep our little space rock in top top shape and to do that, sometimes we need to re-evaluate our daily activities and make some changes.

Any changes big or small create an impact. You may not see it right away but it's there, we promise. We've done an assessment on ourselves and made a few changes as well.

- No more plastic cutlery in the break room. We've provided cutlery built to last and able to be reused by the team. This eliminates a TON of plastic waste.

- We recycle! If you ask to toss a coffee cup in out trash bin and we say "oh I'll take that for you" we aren't just being weird and hoarding coffee cups (we promise), we rinse it clean and toss it in the recycling bin.

- No more single use mop pads! Yes, they are incredibly convenient BUT the planet is worth more than a slight inconvenience. We're happy to drag out the ol' mop bucket if it means less waste.

These are just a few examples but again, any changes big or small make a world of difference. Happy Earth Day!

The harmful practice of deceptive marketing in today's online world

Are you a fan of Smiski, Pokemon or Jellycat? If so, you've likely noticed it's getting more difficult to track 'em down. Why is that? There are many factors such as increasing demand, resellers and distributors cracking down and limiting supply to shops not to mention the looming tariffs and how those may or may not affect the market.

As a small biz, we feel you. We're doing what we can to keep these items well stocked and at or below MSRP. We refuse to boost our prices to make a quick buck. Other companies (we won't name names) lure you in with buzzwords and "sales", but are you truly getting a good deal? We'll use Smiski as an example here. MSRP is $11.99. Another retailer has them "on sale" for $15.99 from $17-$20. They were never $20. It's a marketing tactic but really it's just pure deception. We will not raise our prices unless absolutely necessary, which sometimes means we make a little less on the back end but your trust is worth more than $$$.

We've got the moves!

We've made a few changes at the shop! Not that it's news. We're always shifting things around but this change was much needed and we love the results. Our journals and boxed greeting cards have a lovely new home! We think they're easier to browse and are a little moreaestheticallypleasing.

What do you think?
