Employees were friendly and helpful. Understanding that I was looking for real native American mocassins, not the junk made in China. Bought quite a number of Mexican/native American products.

What a awesome place to stop at anytime your near. They merchandise is so cool I found something for everyone in the family. The employees were wonderful and attentive but not pushy which is nice. They gave me info on all the stuff I bought and were very informative. The best part though is the FIREWORKS!! They have a great selection at decent prices AND a monitor with a scanner that will show you what the fireworks look like when they are set off and that is so neat! Definitely recommend stopping in even if its just to stretch your legs and look around

Actually a Gas Station, huge building. Prices pretty good! Fireworks sold here. Love the artistic renderings outside, see my photos!!*Update 3-13-21: Odd, but Bolins Also offers differing shops along the I-10. i.e. Saw a Billboard saying What Is this? Looked like an alien monster with an **overabundance of teeth! Didnt have time yo stop jn but still wondering- what Is it?

Was driving through and found this little stop. I’ve been buying shot glasses for every state I’ve been to, so I was excited to come across this cute and tall shot glass. I went to take off the barcode sticker and the paint on it came off!! Was super disappointed and upset that I payed money for something that shouldn’t have happened. cute shop, but disappointing that they either have cheap shot glasses or were mistaken to put a barcode sticker on the design itself..

Fun and friendly souvenir shop with a good selection of neat items. Their firework selection might be smaller than some other places but they dont gouge on prices, they have fountains, cake displays, rockets, firecrackers, mortars, Roman candles and assortments, plus more. Well worth a stop for a drink, snack or numerous choices of souvenirs.

Interesting place to pop in to. Lots of knickknacks with some verging on junk of course but enough here to keep you engaged for a few minutes.The bathrooms are okay but not much better than that.
