79. Monkey See Monkey Do

Family Friendly, Random Fun, Things To Do In Austin | 20 Mar 2010

Rumor is it is supposed to be a rainy day with a cold front coming in, Good Luck SXSWers – bring a jacket! That ex’s any cool outdoor dining off my list for today, however, I think Austinites and out of towners alike will appreciate this little Austin jewel.

 South Austin, South Congress looking for an fun for the whole family stop this Saturday, Monkey See Money Do is it, it’s a kid and an adult toy (not in an X rated way) store all in one.

Perfect place to go for wacky gifts, funky Austin gifts or just gifts period!  Think very Urban Outfitters but with that Austin twist that we are all so fond of and enjoy. It is also one of those places that you just find yourself getting lost in, everything is so weird – that stuff you always think, “what is this?”

For those that do not have any idea what to expect – toys, novelty items, stationary, books – it is basically an Austin Gift Shop / Toy Shop / 1950s Comic Store (I wasn’t alive than but I imagine they were something like this!)  

Fits perfectly into our Austin Mata, Keep Austin Weird alright.

What more can I say, welcome to Austin, Texas. Good time to be had by all, guaranteed.
