I’ve been there before, but I realized that I should take pictures and share the awe I feel when I go by.

Found at Shady Lane Antique Mall just south of Terre Haute, Indiana

    They’re a good place to get useful things though, like cups/bowls, decor, instruments, etc. Plus I like to get my white elephant gift at them!

      I might go and buy something there if I was looking for something specific like that, but I usually find better deals from eBay sellers, to be honest. You don’t get the fun of browsing around a store and discovering something cool on eBay though, so I still enjoy just going to antique malls. This one’s nuts. It has antique animal traps in one booth. One guy has a municipal streetlight someone must have stolen at some point. I saw a box of Operation Desert Storm trading cards. Sometimes I wonder who even wants this stuff.
