~~~my only question is...*was* zayre's a great
retailer? as i recall, target was first, then kmart,
and then...possibly as a last gasp resort, my mom
would go to zayre's. i think we went there maybe 4
times. it also could have been that she didn't want
to go to that side of the highway/street.
my mom's funny like that sometimes.
