Between Marshall's, Burlington Coat Factory, and "Fashion One" I buy 90% of my clothes at the mall near "Silver Sprung" that yuppies pejoratively refer to as "Sh*tty Place." I am typically the only blue-eyed person in the building. To my dismay last week I learned that the Steve & Barry's downstairs is closing. I stopped by this evening to check out their liquidation sale. All that remained on the shelves of the store where I had gleefully purchased Sarah Jessica Parker "Bitten" slacks and Venus Williams "Eleven" active-wear for $8.98 per item were some childrens clothes, jeans for the morbidly obese, and winter hats mischievously emblazoned with the term "Angel". I will miss browsing their massive selection of frat-boyish alcohol and sex-themed t-shirts of the "I am not as think as you drunk I am" variety--the largest collection of its kind this side of Ocean City. Steve & Barry's, you will be missed!!
