Below you'll find Merchants and Products which speak to the topic of this site and which, in keeping with our mission as The Web's Concierge, have been carefully chosen and individually screened for your shopping ease and pleasure. They are not paid ads, but rather companies with whom we have selectively chosen to partner. We do earn a referral fee if you find something you like or need and purchase it. We have striven to bring you the "best in breed" companies ... those that: we like, our friends like, have great sites and service, have good online reviews, positive consumer reports, and are family friendly. Keep us posted with regards to your own personal experiences with them.
You may be surprised at companies that have not been included. The "noisiest" in the marketplace are not always the best. We have chosen 1) newer innovative companies that are performing well and garnering respect in their respective niches as well as 2) "Main Street" companies that have been reliably getting the job done for decades ... in some cases centuries. Our oldest partner, thus far, has been in business since 1819! That's staying power.
Rest assured, if we've included a certain vendor in a site's line-up, there's a very specific reason for it. You may have to hunt and poke a bit, but it'll be well worth the effort. Enjoy the adventure!

Customer Favorites:
Art.com: If you love Art ... any kind of art, any subject ... you're gonna love this site. It's a feast for the senses. You can browse by subject, genre, artist, room to be decorated, and even color palate. Once you've found the image you've been looking for and/or can't live without, then you have multiple product types to choose from ... there's even a great selection of wall tapestries. You'll have fun here ... no matter your special interests or current decorating mission. Their tag line says it all: "Find Your Art, Love Your Space."

Indigo Books & Music: No question ... A favorite - that is an understatement - Canadian destination for books, toys, gifts, entertainment, and electronics and much more ... they've been doing it for a good while and they just keep getting better.
Kalyx: Kalyx is a neat and unusual destination that covers several distinct and diverse (distinct and diverse on steroids) niches, yet does them comprehensively. There probably is no more extensive resource on the planet for herbs (especially in bulk) and "natural food" products including homeopathic extracts (a bit pricey), nutritional supplements, natural therapies and remedies, etc. The same goes for Sports & Games ... an incredibly vast selection of every Sport and Game imaginable. Then there's the Personal Care, Kitchen and Housewares products (for personal and commercial varieties), Gardening and Hydroponics, and even Science (definitely geared to the teaching environment here) categories. An unusual site, but one you want to be sure to check out when you've either got lots of time to browse or quickly need something in a distinct category. A site that fills both leisurely and "gotta get it now" browsing methods.
Macy's: And yes ... it is still magical ... even after all these years. Another beautifully organized "department store" with a vast array of goods. Almost as much fun to shop online as at 34th Street! At least you don't have to deal with the crowds!
Mighty Leaf Tea: Best known as the creator of the silken and biodegradable "Tea Pouch" for whole leaf tea, this company is also known for its extensive line of specialty, artisan teas. Teawares and gifts available as well.
Sears: What started as your favorite catalog store has survived to become a giant retailer - 2,300 Sears branded and affiliated stores across the US and Canada - of all your "home, hearth, and garden needs" including apparel, appliances, tools, and automotive products. We may take them for granted, but there isn't much they don't have across all niches ... all displayed across an organized, easy to navigate site.
Target.com: This favorite shopping destination has become one of the Web's 5 top favorite places to shop ... the company has worked its way into the Fortune 50. They've really covered all the bases when it comes to customers' "wants and likes".
Tea Time: A magazine dedicated to "sharing the love of tea"... You'll find inspired tea-party menus, recipes, tea table-setting ideas, tea-focused destinations and events, tea traditions around the world, and much more.

Amazon: One of the planet's most mind-boggling arrays of goods. First came the books. Now they've added every other product on the planet. The ultimate in selection and convenience across multiple categories.
