We all know Yikes, the most awesome toy store ever, right? Old-school and novelty stuff. It’s where you go when you don’t know what to get an eight-year-old for her birthday, or your sixty year old auntie for Christmas, or if you realize you are in need of the Virgin Mary (or Virgen de Guadalupe) on your dash.

Because they are the coolest store ever, and locally-owned,  they will give TucsonMama readers 10% off! Mention TucsonMama before you check out to score the discount.

(PS–Auntie Linda, all your awesome holiday and birthday presents come from Yikes–the mobiles, window stickers, 3D cactus book…It’s a dangerous place for me to shop!)

Yikes is at 2930 E. Broadway, on the south side of the street just west of Country Club.

Here is the schedule for the Carnaval celebration this Saturday, February 13th. Events take place at the Children’s Museum and in Armory Park.
