favorite local business contraction
it's been sad to see some of my all-time favorite local business contract significantly over the last year. Found another one tonight.
so far...
- Vis-Art closed all their Durham stores
- Hold Your Own moved their Chapel Hill store to a really unattractive, small space in Durham, and closed their Raleigh store
- and now Ecko is closing their Chapel Hill store and moving stock into the Durham store.
I think a decent percentage of the lasting components of my household have come from the last two stores. At least they're not gone completely.
