I walked into my first Container Store years ago in the Houston Galleria area. I lived near the…read moreWalnut Creek branch for years, and since then I find an occasional urban area (like West Des Moines) that has one. I'm naturally attracted to merchandise that can be used to store stuff. At the same time, Gayle would advise that I buy less "stuff", thus minimizing any further container purchases. So here I was in West Des Moines, primarily to look for luggage at REI. And much to my pleasant surprise was this Container Store, just an easy stroll away. I wandered around for a while imagining the possibilities. I ended up with some hangers (which for some reason we always need) and a couple cool storage boxes. Sorry Gayle. :)
