My shoes are gone," etc.<BR/><BR/>Carl's store stays "afloat" literally, though high tide the other day was lapping at the edge of Osowaw Blvd. No kidding!P. J.

In the last county I lived in, there was a storefront like that- people would bring what they didn't want, and take what they needed off the shelves. The store kept afloat by selling some of the donated CDs, that's it. It was a bit far from my house though, so I never went. But I thought the concept very cool.Jeanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02270303640902731044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130421352415377273.post-68930949710128679522009-03-26T10:50:00.000-07:002009-03-26T10:50:00.000-07:00I hope my customers read and take your comment to ...I hope my customers read and take your comment to heart, Pamela.

I do miss the wonderful independent book stores we used to have here in my city, though. They are the best !Pamela Terry and Edwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746603636884819522noreply@blogger.com
