FRESH by Brookshire’s
I was already impressed with Brookshire’s before the opening of Fresh.  The Tyler, Texas based grocery company not only stocks an impressive range of grocery products but also actively engages in service to their community and is one of the largest employers in East Texas.  And while sometimes...
Sweet Gourmet
Sweet Gourmet
My go-to place to shop when I want to find a unique gift for a colleague or friend is Sweet Gourmet. They carry the best specialty food items around, have excellent customer service, and in many instances have made my job much, much easier. When I needed to provide 10 gift baskets for the Saudi royal...

Sephora
Finally Tyler has a Sephora!   The cosmetics, skincare, and haircare retailer has partnered with JCPenney’s and has opened a store inside the department store. Now we all have a reason to go to Penney’s aside from the easy access to the mall and the always plentiful parking.  The Sephora...

A co-worker recently expressed his curiosity over us Tylerites’ obsession with Racquet & Jog t-shirts.  I remember back when I first moved to Tyler, I too, was confused by the popularity of these brightly colored shirts.  Initially, I assumed Racquet & Jog must be a local athletic...

Have I ever mentioned how much I like Tyler Candles?  Well, I do.  I absolutely love them, actually.  They come in tons of awesome scents, have adorable packaging, and they are very strong smelling.  Not to mention, the candles are actually made right here in Tyler, Texas. I don’t even...
Spinout
Spinout
When I first discovered Spinout a couple of years ago I could not believe my eyes. I had no idea there was a place in town where you could find brands such as Juicy Couture, True Religion, T-Bags, Rachel Pally, Shoshanna, etc. I thought I had died and gone to retail heaven. I had been under the impression...
