Hey everyone!! We're finally back from Balloon Fest and starting to put the store back together this morning!! Our stock is super low on sweatshirts compared to normal, our blind date with a books aren't back on the shelves yet, and we're completely sold out of desk geese for now! 🙀

As thanks for all your patience, we're having a 15% off sale for all items in stock today! So please feel free to come shop for our puzzles, board games, dice, and everything else this week! 🧩🎲

Come see us at Centralia Balloon Fest this weekend!!! We're all set up and ready for shoppers. This year we have our embroidered sweatshirts & t-shirts, blind date with a books, and concrete desk geese & their outfits!! 🪿📚🍁

Our booth is located right next to the fighter jet- so we're super easy to find this year! ✈️

We'll be accepting both cash and card payments as long as the internet doesn't get too overwhelmed!!🤞

Before you come to Balloon Fest, please note that some things are CASH ONLY.

There are ATMs located just outside of the park at People’s National Bank, Schnucks, Walmart, and Regions Bank. All are within walking distance of Fairview Park, and both are ready for the weekend crowds!

Tethered balloons rides are CASH ONLY.

Some food and craft vendors may also be cash only, due to the internet service being overwhelmed with the amount of people in the park.

Please plan ahead and be patient with our vendors if our park has no internet service 💖 Thank you!!
