How do I LOVE Pickwick?  Let me count the ways.....

   Milkshakes- Good ones. OK, so ice cream comes first with me! (Love the staff there!)

   Toys- A good old fashioned aisle of some classics that we all like and some innovative fun ones to try! (I mean, yes, a place with toys-we need more of those as the big box place closed up- I pretty much buy a toy every time I go! Kids birthdays, Christmas-a great way to keep up!)

   Giftware-  Just bought a baby gift today and had a "Welcome baby!" balloon blown up to add. It was fun! It can be hard to find a good giftshop   these days!

   Greenville Giftware (and South Carolina) - Yep-Greenville things. (See pic) and more than shown in the picture. I bought 2 really nice large insulated cups-one with SC symbol in blue and another in Clemson orange for a niece and nephew in Richmond who come visit and LOVE Greenville and S.C. (They also carry some S.C-made sauces and products as well as Happy Cow and more)

   Fudge- Don't have to drive to the mountains for your fudge. You may also stop in for grilled simple sandwiches, hotdogs and a variety of soups and carry home a slice of fudge from the lunch counter. (They have comfortable cafe tables as well as the stools)
