Christmas Closure!
BOUTIQUE BARGAIN BIN
The Bin is open Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from noon (12:00) to 3:00 pm.
Every inch of display space - racks, shelves ,windows, walls, tables, cabinets etc. is filled to capacity with previously loved items to rival any upscale boutique. It is an adventure just to browse around. Not to be missed.
See you there.
