The Local Surplus Store
There is a store about half a mile from here that I’m really going to miss when we move. It was once a garage, but the fellow that ran it retired from that line of work and turned it into a store. It has a little bit of everything, mostly overstocks and such of food and hardware, but you can find all sorts of stuff in there.
It’s not very well organized, so you have to look around to find stuff. There are bungee cords, pet supplies, weight loss pills and candies all within close proximity to one another. But the deals are great. I go down there pretty often to get paper cups from restaurants that have gone out of business, which he sells for $1 a run. Try finding disposable cups that cheap at the grocery store.
I hope we don’t have to move so far away that it’s too much trouble to come out and shop there. That’s one of many things I would miss about this area.
