Gift Shop

The Gift Shop is one of the three buildings in the Town. It is where penguins can buy clothes for themselves from the catalog, Penguin Style. The Gift Shop also sells colors, player card backgrounds, and flags. Non-members can only buy the colors and player card backgrounds. The clothes and flags for sale are only available to members. The Gift Shop contains three dressing rooms and a desk. It used to be almost identical to the Sport Shop, but the Sports Shop changed and now sells sports items. It is most likely owned by the Gift Shop Manager.

Jobs:

Some creative penguins have been known to pretend to have special “jobs” in the Gift Shop. Penguins invent all kinds of ideas and occupations to employ and work in the gift shop, a list of these include:

• “Owner“: The owner walks around the shop, talking to managers.
  • Costume:
    • Formal dress

• “Manager“: The manager oversees everything at the shop. They sit behind the till (cash register) with a cashier.
  • Costume:
    • Formal dress

• “Cashier“: The cashier sits at the till serving customers and collecting the money.
  • Costume:
    • Formal dress

• “Assistant“: The assistants walk around telling penguins they look good in the article of clothing they are trying on.

Trivia:

• Sometime in October 2007, there were boxes in the Gift Shop. The boxes were opened and the Big Wigs catalog was released.
• The Gift Shop is rarely decorated inside.
• On June 20th, 2008, there was a earthquake that destroyed the entire Town Center. Many penguins think Herbert P. Bear was looking for something. There were cracks on the ground and walls, clothes fell over, and the poster almost fell off. In Mission 8, you must save the Gift Shop. It later turns out that Herbert’s tunnels had made the earthquakes and had also made the Gift Shop fall. The play remarks that the Gift Shop needs a lift.
• In Mission 10, if you help the Gift Shop Manager set up his clearance table outside, he will give you an award at the end of the mission.
• Penguin Style is located in here.
• You could not enter the Gift Shop in Penguin Chat 3. If you tried to enter it would take you to a real-life shop where you could buy items (but not memberships, there were no such things as coins in PC3).

Parties:

• During the 2008 April Fool’s Day Party, the Gift Shop was white with dark tan lines.
• During the 2008 Halloween Party, there were lots of pumpkins.
• During the Medieval Party 2009, the Gift Shop was a market including a Medieval Catalog.
