Keeping Up With King St. from the Charleston Mercury

by Susan Lucas

From The Charleston Mercury

"I did almost all of my holiday shopping on King Street, where else? Got some big wows and some sweet thank you’s, especially from family and friends who got other presents via the internet, delivered in cardboard by UPS with a “personalized” gift card enclosed. I like Amazon; sometimes it’s necessary and it sure is convenient. But nothing is more special or memorable than a hand selected and wrapped gift from one of the ten best shopping streets in the country.

One much appreciated gift to was a Le Creuset French Oven in beautiful Cherry, “a rich gradient of reds ranging from deep maroon to bright scarlet,” according to Le Creuset. I meant well, schlepping it home from King Street to wrap for someone special who is a very good cook, but that night it ended up in my own oven roasting a fat chicken instead. I also love to cook, never had the pleasure of using Le Creuset and simply couldn’t resist. That stuff is wonderful!  

Last Minute Gift Shopping at the Magnifilous Toy Emporium

 The Magnifilous Toy Emporium will be open on December 24th from 10am-3pm for your last minute gift shopping! Pick up a stuffed animal or two, some fabulous games for little ones as well as the whole family, and the perfect little trinkets to stuff those stockings to the brim!
