This place gets kudos just for how bizarre it is. I mean, seriously, apart from in Lapland, why would you have a year-long Christmas shop anywhere? I mean, I'm the kind of person who holds their breath until Christmas has come and gone (because I'm a grinch), and this place would have me holding my breath all year long, every day, except that it's kind of awesome. \n\nLocated on Victoria St., alongside all the other Grassmarket shops of quirk and merriment, it fits in perfectly. I'd heard rumour of this place, but had to go check it out for myself just to make sure it really did exist (a bit like getting someone to pinch you when you think you're dreaming). And it does. Oh, it does. It's full of tinsel and pine and all those Christmas colours. \n\nIf you're a grinch like me, don't be put off. I mean, as far as once-in-a-lifetime experiences go, this place is right up there with having to one day see someone jump out of a cake (not done) and sitting on a cactus (done, embarrassingly so).
