Picks and Wicks

Picks and Wicks is a great little knick knack shop in the lobby of Bally’s. I was looking for something specific to buy — a black tophat to go with a Monopoly costume I was putting together — and by some stroke of good luck, they had one! And it was only $ 10. Yes, it was made out of felt-​like material and had an over-​the-​top band of sparkles on it, but it was perfect! And the price was great. They can really rip you off at these types of places, and I actually felt like I got a good deal. My friend and I also scoped out the jewelry section and were impressed. Some of it was a little gaudy for my tastes, but they actually had some decent finds (obviously nothing real, but hey, still looks nice). And all jewelry, including watches, was $ 10. So cheap! I ended up buying a great little watch that was silver and black and pretty stylish. I didn’t look too closely at the wine selection, but that looked pretty decent, too. Overall, I was pretty impressed with this gift shop!
