What to do and see in Greensboro, North Carolina (NC): The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

March 18, 2022 Karren Gelb

Greensboro, North Carolina loves nightlife, shopping, and horses (8,000 buyers per year go to the Sharpe Family Horse Farm.)  Greensboro lives up to its name in the host of gardens, science centers, and arboretums. The Bog Garden features a living wetland ecosystem. History is also at home here with museums dedicated to the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, and the Civil Rights movement. After a day of sightseeing, visitors flock to the Four Seasons Town Center for dinner, shopping, and a movie.

I went to get a bottle of wine, and then saw their cigar collection!! Not only did they help me find a great bottle of wine based on my tastes, they helped me select 5 cigars to take home to my husband! On top of all that, they gave me a "first time customer" 10% discount! When I left, there were about 5 gentlemen enjoying cigars together on the front porch. They invited me to stay and join them. Very friendly people and place!

McKay's

McKay's is a one-of-a-kind shopping experience. People bring us their previously loved books, movies, video games, music, etc., and we offer them cash or store credit in return. Everything you find on our shelves was brought to us by other customers like you! And because of that, you truly never know what you're going to find. Every visit to McKay's is a unique adventure.

Vast selection of used books, video game "stuff," music, Lego. Limited parking is worth the fight. Well-labeled and well-priced; casual, welcoming atmosphere. Our 9-year-old son chose this location for a special day trip from Roanoke. Found freebie box of Civil War books (obviously not always there) to historian husband's delight.
