If so, :-( Yeah, that's the one. Why the frown? Tracy Because I'm not going to drive there. I was hoping for the Western 'burbs. Oh well. We ARE getting a new Asian market soon.

Turns out it is only 12 miles from me. If there is mall, it will be worth the trip, unless the mall is one of those really upscale types, like the new addition in Natick. Plus, it all sounds like it will be quite some time before it is any where near done..... -Tracy who would be ecstatic if CostPlus World Market expanded to New England/Mass. |

Not as third world or remotely as interesting as it was before it changed names to Cost Plus *World Market*. It is upscale and bland now. They don't sell Cost Plus designed wrapping paper, cocktail napkins etc anymore (only the tip of the iceberg). I could go on, but it's like spitting in the wind. -- See return address to reply by email remove the smile first |
