So I was at the Pierogi Fest in Whiting, IN getting my fill of polish food and beer when I saw this…read morekid walking with a stick that had a t-shirt on it that said "Hey, Nice Pierogis." My friends and I nearly lost our pierogis when we read this. The kid handed us a flyer and told us the t-shirts could be found at this local store called The Junkyard. We made our way to this store in the heat of Summer to find this "cool" shop reminescent of the stores in my stomping grounds of Chicago. Cool T-shirts, many which are transfers. You know, where you pick the t-shirt off the wall and the image and they press it on for you (very old school). My friends and I ended up getting Pierogi T-shirts but also some cool transfer t-shirts with fun sayings on them and my other friend nabbed a cool Misfits t-shirt, wallet and belt buckle too. The decor is cool too - lockers with t-shirts hanging on them, cool pipes or something hanging from the ceiling, old tires (thus the name of the store I guess). Cool music was playing, the owners were two young girls I think (or so it seemed) but it was crazy busy when we were in there so we didn't get to talk to anyone really. If you're in the area, stop by the store. Very cool stuff if you are looking for great t-shirts and INEXPENSIVE. Our Pierogi shirts were $10, and the Misfits one was $12 (the custom made transfer ts were $12 too) - that's a bargin. In Chicago I pay $25 for the same t-shirt. Check them out if you haven't yet.

I'm short and heavy, but still need clothes that fit. Recently needed a fishing bib rain suit…read more To purchase one that will fit around my waist and short enough is impossible. So, I purchased one which I knew would have to be shortened to be wearable. Took it to "Altered". The material is heavy with an inner and outer layer of fabric. The pant legs were complete with Velcro and pant leg zippers which would also have to be shortened. Altered, did an outstanding job of shortening this rain suit at a price which I considered to be more than fair. Completely happy. Already, planning on taking in more items to have shortened. Support your local businesses and get an exceptional job done in the meantime - They deserve your support.

I spoke with Emilio last year when I was looking for a place to print out some docs when I…read morepurchased my recent home. I remember he was very friendly on the phone and while his main bread an butter is in producing sounds and graphics, he mentioned he could also print out my docs. In the end I wound up not needing to print those. Fast forward to now and I've been having to do a lot of print jobs of resumes lately due to needing to seek new employment. I was looking for a closer option than Merrillville or Portage and recalled Sounds & Graphics in Lake Station. So I went to S&G to print the page I needed. One interesting tidbit...he's in the middle of an at least two block long parking area with numerous rows of businesses with only two main exits on each end. That made for an interesting arrival. Anyway once inside there's a half wall area where you can drop off and pick up orders. I put in my simple print request and after a few confirmations he was able to print it out. He also offers fax services if needed. The print cost was way more economical per page than Staples or FedEx. Wish I had gone to him a few days ago when I had a larger print order of resumes. My job at the time was a simple one but it's great knowing there's an option closer to me. And kudos to Emilio for providing friendly service as well.
