FAO Schwarz Leaves Vegas

FAO Schwarz, the big toy store in the Caesars Forum Shops has left town. Many celebrities shopped there and just about everyone who has gone through the Forum Shops have stopped buy to look at the different toys, the huge stuffed animals, model train layouts the doll collections and the candy. Michael Jackson would shop there after hours.
The store would have these huge stuffed animals. Some would sell for over $12,000 and they actually will sell them.
But I went for the candy. They would have high quality candy that was self serve. It was expensive, about $12 a pound, but it was worth it.
So, now a bunch of young kids are unemployed and tourists will have to elsewhere for their toys.
