Irving's Toy and Card Shop

Located right next to Abigail Adams Junior High, Irving’s is THE Brookline destination for everything from notebooks to Swedish Fish. Mrs. Ethel Weiss runs the store and loves to chat with AAJH students. This store is full of goodies and has been around for over 60 years.

Reasons to go to Irving’s Toy and Card Shop:

 

-Mrs. Weiss makes sure there are lots and lots of Swedish Fish.

-Get your fake moustaches here.

-Toys and fun stuff available too!

The BSG always go to Mrs. Weiss for words of wisdom. When Marty ran away in book #8 Lucky Charm, Mrs. Weiss gave Charlotte all her support.

 

you tell us ...
Maeve usually stops into Irving's by herself, but she LOVES shopping with the BSG. Who is your favorite shopping buddy?

My favorite shopping buddy is my older sister. I am 9 and she is 18. She always helps me pick out clothes and helps me find sizes. I like helping her to. My favorite BSG shopping buddy would be Maeve and Isabel because they both are creative and Maeve knows her acsesories!

i love shopping with my mom bcuz
she'll take me
into stores like hollister or abercrombie when i dont even ask. she's got some kind of radar, like, she'll know im itching 2 go in so she just steers me inside.
she's a bargain hunter, but not CHEAP. she always finds the cutest stuff on sale , especially in abercrombie or hollister bcuz they r so expensive.but if somethings really nice, even when its a lot, she'll give it the once over, and put it on hold or buy it.
sometimes ill just b coming outof the store and she'll have a hollister or abercrombie bag i didn't even see her with b4 with somethibg she bought 4 me.
we have the best time togather. we r sooo close, we're almost bffs. i know it sounds wierd, but its true, i love my my mom!!!!!!!!!!!

My favorite shopping buddy is either my mom,dad,or any of my friends. My mom thinks she knows about the fashion world more than me(which is so not true). My dad because he will let me buy anything i want(which is so lucky for me). Either of my friends go shopping with me mainly because we all like to shop and we get to say about anything we try on.

My fave shopping buddy is either my mom or my bff
my mom becuz she tells me what looks good on me, and also things that look really expensive that only cost like 10 dollars
and my bff becuz we both luv fashion designing so we can make great outfits, plus we share clothes and between the 2 of us we get some pretty sweet stuff. smilies/cool.gif
