Sneaky Scallywags - Sun Peaks, British Columbia

This store is a must-visit! It’s so much more than just candy – the fun clothing, like kids' outfits and grown-up onesies, is fantastic. The staff are incredibly friendly, helpful, and always greet you with a smile. If you’re at Sun Peaks, don’t miss out on this gem of a shop. It’s a place where both kids and adults can feel like kids again!

The product itself was fine, but unfortunately, the shop owner completely soured the experience. We’ve never encountered such rude and unprofessional behavior anywhere else before.

Here’s what happened:

My friend bought a pair of shorts and asked the cashier if they could be returned if they didn’t fit. The cashier assured her that returns were allowed within 45 days, as long as the item wasn’t worn.

When the sizing didn’t work out, my friend decided to return the shorts. On the day we were leaving Sun Peaks, we went back to the store to return the item. I was also hoping to buy some souvenirs, but the shop owner’s attitude was nothing short of appalling.

First, he questioned why we wanted to return the item, and after we explained, he offered an exchange. When we insisted on a return, he lied to our faces, claiming the shorts were considered “underwear” and couldn’t be returned. He even printed out a receipt and tried to highlight some “fine print,” claiming they don’t accept returns on underwear. This was not only misleading but completely false—the shorts were brand new with tags, not underwear.

My friend was understandably upset, but I insisted we would get the refund because:
1. The item was clearly not underwear.
2. The cashier had explicitly told us the item was returnable.

To make matters worse, my friend couldn’t find her receipt at first. When I asked the shop owner to look up our purchase in his system (I even provided the exact time of the transaction), he spent an embarrassingly long time fumbling with his computer before he was unable to locate the order. Eventually, my friend found the receipt, and the owner begrudgingly processed the refund.

But the worst part? After finally issuing the refund, he condescendingly remarked, “I’ll just throw it away. I’ve seen enough customers like you.”

I wonder if he would behave the same if we were 6ft tall white guys 😉

It’s a shame we had to leave in a hurry, because I forgot to help him dispose of the “underwear” he claimed we could only exchange but not return.
Btw, we paid the restock fee the cashier failed to tell us about.

I strongly recommend taking your business elsewhere—there are far better places to shop in Sun Peaks where you’re treated with basic courtesy and respect.

Jeff is an absolute pleasure! Went in to do a quick browse and ended up conversing for like 10-15 minutes! Lots of cool candy options I've never seen before! Will absolutely be returning

First time in Sun Peaks and this is one of the best stores in the village. The owner was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the history of some of the candy that dated back to WWIII. Thx for a great experience.
