Stores from the past...which ones do you miss?
The toy store thread in the Delta Sigma Theta forum got me thinking. What were your favorite stores that no longer exist?
I loved going to Venture when I was younger. It was THE place to buy makeup and other little necessities. The clothes weren't bad either. The stores went way downhill in the 90s, though, and they all closed around 1998 or so.
Crown Books and Kroch and Brentano's were two bookstore chains I loved. (Especially since everything was sold at a discount at Crown!)
We had a Crawford's Department Store in town that we shopped at a lot for school clothes. We had a ton of plastic Crawford's mugs, too.
