A toy store, or toy shop, is a retail business specializing in selling toys.
No longer held to the limitations of a physical outlet, many toy stores now transact business over the Internet in addition to shops on the street. Many department stores also have toy sections.
Among the most widely known toy retailers are Toys "R" Us and FAO Schwarz. The flagship store of Hamleys in London is the world's largest toy shop.
Famous quotes containing the words toy and/or store:
“The world of men show like a comedy without laughter: populations, interests, government, history; ‘t is all toy figures in a toy house.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Every third year you shall bring out the full tithe of your produce for that year, and store it within your towns; the Levites, because they have no allotment or inheritance with you, as well as the resident aliens, the orphans, and the widows in your towns, may come and eat their fill so that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work that you undertake.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 14:28,29.
