If you are in our store and find that the store smells fishy – that’s because of the ocean and the tide going out. For some reason it was worst on Saturday – during Shark Scramble – no one complained but mannn!! we wanted to puke – luckily by closing the door and spraying some [...]

Yes! we advertised ! so if you find our advertisement – you will know that there is a special going on. We won’t tell you where we’ve advertised of course – then that would be way too easy. We figured we should since Movie Gallery is officially closed and so is 10 to 10 – [...]
