Greek Gear in Atlanta?

[loveUAKA]

Hola - How is everyone? I hope that all is well. I live in Metro-Atlanta & I'm trying to locate additional greek gear stores. I'm aware of Burning Sands and the Greek Corner. Does anyone know of any others in this area?

Thanks & have a blessed day!

Also, I don't know if it was still there but there used to be one of those middle of the aisle carts at South Dekalb Mall (Candler Road - I20/I285 area) that sold BGLO stuff. The one I'm thinking of is between Rochelle's Jewelry and some type of Linens store.

It's hard to find, though. We drove all over the shopping center looking for it one day and gave up.

I think it just says "Gifts" on the outside of the building.

Really? Are you sure you were in the right shopping center? Both mine and my fiance's paddles were made from products purchased at Creatively Greek

It's a nice store.

[NUBlue&Blue]

Yes, because my daughter went back with somebody who knew where it was and she said it was the same shopping center that we had driven back and forth and all over the parking lot looking for the store.

It's in that shopping center, but the sign above the store just says "gifts"

I remember driving past it all the time and wondering "what is this store that's just called 'Gifts'?" but then I found out when it came time to make the paddle.

I went to a cookout this past weekend where an old school Omega was selling para. I promise that I asked him the name of the store and the location, but he only told me that it's on Old National Hwy in College Park (around the corna for me) in the Crowe's Nest shopping plaza. I haven't had a chance to go exploring, but that's the newest option that I'm aware of.

There's also a small store in Greenbriar Mall with a nice selection of NPHC and Masonic para. It's located inside the mall in front of Burlington Coat. It has clear "walls" and looks like a little room. Sorry, I just don't recall the name of it.

I've seen that store in the mall, but I have no idea what it's called either ... it stands out, though.

I don't recall there being any obvious Greek shopping places in that shopping plaza. Will have to look more closely next time I'm over that way.

About every 3 - 5 years, there's always been an effort to open a Greek shop in the Old National area or near the Union Station (formerly Shannon Mall), and it may last a year if not less. If his shop exists, I hope he gets to stay around for a while. Maybe someone should open a shop in the Camp Creek Marketplace area....

They sell some D9 stuff in a tiny store near the Food Court at Shannon Mall/Union Station. When I went in there, it was mostly pretty ugly stuff, though ... maybe it's improved.

Camp Creek Marketplace would be good. Also, that new little shopping center, I don't know the name, that's right off the Old National exit, would be a good spot - very visible.
