So, when we were on the way home we stopped at the Grove City outlet center. An outlet mall that almost straddles the PA/OHio line. It had been several years since I had been there so of course most of the stores had changed. They have one little hut that used to be "The House of Heinz." Now however, it is a mini donut store. That is all it sells is small donuts in various flavors. I got a strawberry shortcake one for friend. Have you found any unique retail establishments lately?

Oh that is sad. I think most of the things that were going to close, closed here during the pandemic. The rest I think are here to stay.

@snowy22315 - Some waited hoping to see their business pick up, but people spend less because the fear of inflation now.

I love bookstores! There are not enough of them around these days. There is supposed to be an enormous one in Scottsville, sort of in the Charlottesville area. I keep saying I have to make a field trip there.

@snowy22315 Sadly, many have gone out of business. I think this one will make it.

Can't say well, maybe. We found Pop Shelf, which is owned by the Dollar family (family dollar, Dollar Tree etc) kind of neat.

@snowy22315 I like the purple theme, and how friendly the staff are even if it's all self-check out.

Some malls are really nice inside, and they keep the floors polished too. Some even have marble.

I try not to go find little stores as I might want to buy stuff. Those donuts sound just right though.

Yes, I didn't buy any as I had already had some chocolate, but they were tempting

It is really cute. I never saw a place that specialized in mini donuts.
