I love shopping~
Even if I can't buy anything, I just like walking around looking. I always call this dollar store "The green roof one". There are several dollar type stores in Canton and this one is by far my favorite! The items them sell are nicer quality I think. Today I purchased a few birthday cards, some drinking glasses, (I break them all the time so I don't want to spend a lot of money) & a few other items. I like to look around that shop, they have a holiday sections which is right now Cinco de Mayo decorations. (Doesn't a cinco de mayo party sounds like fun!)
The cashier there was friendly & engaged me in conversation. No one really wants to be at work on a Friday afternoon when its 80 outside. I understand that, thank you for being so nice. I can't wait to go back. I saw some things I wanted but I try to pace myself.
I look forward to Fridays, I do my Avon rounds. I put up flyers & drop off books to anyone who has requested from my website and I drop them off at business' around the area. Stopping at the Dollar Tree was an added perk to my outing. To anyone looking for the household item I recommend The Dollar Tree on Tusc (the one with the green roof!) It is organized, spacious, friendly & the everything is a dollar idea is brilliant. Tell them The Canton Card send you....Oh & don't forget to give a dollar item to the Canton's Battered Womens shelter. Show your community you care. (I know you do.)

Monday, April 12, 2010
I apologize for not blogging about this wonderful city in quite some time. Honestly, my husband & I haven't gone anywhere lately for me to blog about. So I have decided to tank about the places & things we have done in the past few weeks. Even if it means I have no place to send a Canton Card to.
We did a few geocaches yesterday & found some that have been eluding us. It was great to get out & stretch in the sun. The parks Sunday were filled with families and children running around all willy nilly. Geocaching was a bit challenging because non-geocachers look strangely at you. Of course an adult bushwhacking through trees & peering under tables and railing doesn't look exactly...right.
Mostly I've been doing my Avon rounds at nearby businesses and all that is is a pop in & drop off some books and/or a flyer. Avon has a sale going on right now (campaign 11) for lip gloss. For each lip gloss you purchase you are entered into a drawing to win a 2010 Malibu. (yay!) So I have been real busy spreading the word.
With the weather so nice I have been working on my flowers and landscaping. It has been wonderful to work outside again. I'll start blogging about the roadside nursery's I visit when the time is right. Also the farmers market downtown is on my list.
If anyone has a place or business you'd like me to visit please drop my an email or post a comment on this blog post. I would love some feedback & ideas.
