The Surprise housewares store is closing (Wells, Duane: price, venue, party)

[Cida]

and I'm mentioning it in case anyone wants to check for bargains at 50% off. Anyway, they still have things like small dinette sets, some shelving, straw bins/baskets, bright-colored plastic drinking glasses, shower curtains, party paper plates/napkins, some cookware, stools, terrific folding screens, etc.

It's 91 Third Avenue, near 12th Street. Kind of sad.

I pray to Odin that a TD Bank opens up there...

I can't tell if you're trying to be funny. There's a TD bank 2-3 blocks away, I think.

This is too bad. It was a nice store -- not so much that the store was aesthetically pleasing; in fact it was cramped with crowded aisles, but the products they carried were quite useful and reasonably priced.
