Don’t let the name fool you, this is not a soccer shop, comic book store, or specialty children’s shop. I stumbled upon Kicks N’ Grins a few years ago, it sits next to the Charlotte sushi hot spot, Rusans. With its patriotic flags flying out front I was drawn to peek my head inside, and what a surprise! If you have not heard of Kicks N’ Grins, let me be the first to introduce you to my “go to” for gifts.
Kicks N’ Grins is everything NC, everything plus much more. From great collegiate items, to the original Pawley’s Island hammocks, beautiful bird houses, and my fav – Hot Honeys Peanuts! Francis, the ultra friendly manager and brother to owner Terry Snyder, stocks the funniest greeting cards too. I promise that you can find something for anyone, go in for a gift and find a little something for yourself too!
