Never been inside one though since I never knew what they sold.

I've never been in either one but I hate for those jobs to be lost. I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time. NRA Life Member

The big problem they had was keeping things stocked, and a lot or most of the basic stuff they sold was really cheap crap that would break or become trash not long after being bought. I think we went through 2 Freds electric can-openers before we just ordered one that wouldnt break from Amazon. Never Trust Government "You can be broke but you cant be poor." Ruthie-May Webster
