Rag Shops are going out of business

Mine went out a couple of months ago and never advertised a sale or really marked anything down very much. I asked one of the salespeople and she said everything was shipped back to their warehouse.

Here you are Mary. I "Googled" it and it gave this link. They seem to be cut price stores who sell most things for DIY or handicrafts

Ah, I see. We do have such shops but I can't remember what they're called. Come to think of it, I haven't seen one for some time - but I go shopping as rarely as possible :-)

I'm very depressed about this because this is the only place in Brooklyn I know of to buy DMC floss. The quilting store used to carry it but they closed. I will have to either go to Manhattan (PARKING) or to Long Island (DRIVING).
