My little suburb used to have a small Sears store in the center of town (now an upscale Mexican restaurant), it carried some common items but you could also order from the catalog and have it delivered to the store. A concept that is coming back with a lot of retailers letting you order online and pick up at your local brick-and-mortar store. What’s old is new again.

We have some new stuff. And we are going to actually MAIL it to people. I know, hard to believe. Appealing to the steampunk crowd I think.
