On Saturday I was shopping in Community Hope Market and minding my own business. The aisle is narrow and as I pushed my cart one way, an older woman pushed her cart the other way. When our carts met in the aisle she said to me, “This place is not that cheap!” I did agree with her because many of their prices seem to be close to regular grocery store prices. The price increases seem to have happened since I wrote my article on salvage stores.
In a conspiratorial whisper, this woman tells me to go to a salvage store, she didn’t know the name of it, in New Castle by the Farmer’s Market where 13 and 40 meet. You go in back of the old restaurant called Captain’s Quarters. There are some buildings back there and it is on the left (or was that the right?). I tell her I will definitely check it out.
That is, if I can find it! I have searched many web sites and can’t find anything about it. If I locate it, I will let you know. Does anyone else know about this store?
In my searches, I came across a great article and a blog that I didn’t know about! The article is on salvage stores and the author lists stores by state. He lists a salvage store right here in North East that I read about in the newspaper but have yet to go see.
