It is still soft....the opening that is

We finally put the finishing touches on the new store last night. The gay guy who make our curtains finally showed up and we were able to put them on the dressing room pole. Lisa merchandised the store to make it attractive and to make it easier to get at the product without searching all through both stores as we have been doing for the past couple of months. It was a lot of work. In and amongst a lot of other work we have been doing. But it is shaping up nicely.

We have already had a pretty good response. Yesterday we sold a French bra that went for $170. It is by a famous French company and a French broad bought it. She is going to spread the word to all the other frogs in the neighborhood so it looks like we might have a busy weekend God willing.

Now that is not our typical price point. We have a bunch of sets at around sixty dollars which is about as low as you can go without sell Kmart or Wallmart type stuff. Plus plenty of Spanx and stockings and hose and bra extenders and who knows what else to make a buck.

I am leaving the lights in the window on overnight to get people to peek inside. It is with low wattage LED blubs so it shouldn't cost me all that much and might be a good ploy.


Let's hope it works!

Don't be surprised if your video cameras pick up 14 year old boys standing outside rubbing one out looking @ the displays.

Or shopping for something to give their teacher.

Those are the kinds of mannikins that ISIS prefers.

That sounds like something out of one of Troop's westerns...the series where the boys stare at "teats."

It would be kinda meta if Troop wrote his own store into one of his "Easterns".
