The Toy Box is one of those shops that I hope never goes away. I bring my children there to purchase gifts for friend's birthday parties and the owner is always very welcoming...no matter what amount I spend. I use to think that it was not within my price range, but you know that a $20 gift certificate costs the same price everywhere. My best experience ever, was last year, I brought my 3 young children into the store. They had been saving their "wages" ( for household chores ) all Summer and they wanted to purchase a Webkin each. I could have gone to a number of shops, but I don't think anyone in one of the bigger stores would have taken the time to help them count out all the dollars and change in their jars. They have been given a lot more Webkinz since then, but that experience meant alot to all of us.
