Wildwood Outfitters Grumpage

[zacs]

anyone that can reference the sportingoods store where the puprle cow is now is alright in my book i got my first baseball glove there, bought my first pair of shin pads there, etc.... the name of the place is on the tip of my tounge and is going to drive me crazy. i think it starts with an 's' but i can't remember. it will come to me...
sorry to completely derail the tread, but fr brought up good memory.

as far as wildwood, i understand it. it is very hard running such a seasonal business. it seems like every brick and mortar tackleshop has high prices (except mikecc's M&Ds).

Wakefield Sports and Arms, got all my fishing there as a kid more than 30 years ago. Gils was in there too before he moved over to the mall.

I havent noticed any outgrageous prices at Wildwood (other than the Surf Hog Stuff --- (Just kidding!!!) ), and it is good to have a local shop again.

Yup...Gil was in a long, tunnel shop right next door. Those were the daze. Thanks for remembering the name. It was driving me nutz.

It is VERY good having a local shop again.
