Spencer’s is the latest store to debut in Algonquin Commons and will host a grand opening celebration Saturday.

Spencer’s, formally known as Spencer’s Gifts, will have its grand opening from 1 to 5 p.m. at its new location at 1958 S. Randall Road, Algonquin. The first 100 shoppers will receive $10 gift cards, and the event will offer sweet treats, giveaways and games, according to a Spencer’s news release.

The store is known for its novelty clothing, accessories, jewelry and adult items. It was founded in 1947 in Pennsylvania as a mail-order catalog company and since has grown to have 680 retail locations, according to the release.

Spencer’s in Algonquin officially opened last week. The nearest Spencer’s store is located in Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg.

Many other new shops and restaurants also recently opened at Algonquin Commons this year including Mr. Kimchi, Twin Peaks and The Fresh Market.
