For the most part this is a great place.  They have recently done some renos and it appears they have taken out some of the merchandise that I loved going in there for.  It's gone a little downhill.  Not sure if they have changed ownership or if it's…More »

All About Pets (11)

Here are the places I will willingly take my animals too!

Pet friendly businesses (34)

Hello yelper friends!  If you are anything like me your dog (s) go everywhere with you and you hate leaving them in the car, so here is a list of pet friendly businesses.  Just don't let them pee everywhere because it could ruin it for the rest of us! I heart my pets!

Mary Kay (3)

Since I am an Independent Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay, I figured I would share with you the pro and cons of hosting some events outside the home :)!  Did that make sense lol?  Basically these are places/businesses I come into contact while trying to build my business!

Retail Therapy (69)

When I am down and depressed I take myself shopping and I feel happy!

4* (just a little something missing) (134)

These are all great places but there was always something missing.  Didn't make them horrible but didn't get them the coveted 5*!!!

On the cheap! (58)

Cheap is all in relation to the item and thus this list has many different price ranges BUT they are all cheaper than their competitors.  I have also put in a few out of country items too :)!

I love me some clothes... (22)

I don't think a clothing list needs a description lol.

Food, food & more food! (43)

I love food!  Here are some of my fav places to get my food on!

The 5 Spot (85)

5 stars only club!

Grocery Shops (22)

Good for picking up your daily nutritional needs.  I tend to go to a few different places instead of sticking to just one store lol.
