Hi John,
When I was a kid I could buy useful, interesting things at the "dime
store" with a nickle and get some change back. The "dime stores" morphed
into "dollar stores" and I guess they will soon be "sawbuck stores".
We don't have stores like yours in this area. Maybe I should move to
Boston so I can go there, too (evil grin). We do have some "other"
stores that have things like you mentioned so maybe I'll just stay here
a while longer.
