Crafts and ladies' shoes are among the highlighted specials during October. A Halloween Clearance Sale is now underway, and holiday crafts are on sale through the end of the month.

The recently updated, open-space front room features clothes for men, women, and children as well as "classy clothing" jewelry, handbags, and scarves. Kitchen items, tools, sporting goods, home decor, fabric, and furniture are also featured at bargain prices. A newly decorated book section features both paperback and hardback books. A pet section and garden section are the newest features this year.
