Recently had some antenna issues for my over the air broadcasts. My local tower guy was out due to…read morea back injury so I contacted Selk to come and fix our antenna. It was determined that our antenna was bad and we needed another. The technician explained that they had a Wingard GS 2200 Sensar amplified antenna that they had installed numerous times and had great results with. I was familiar with this unit as I had seen it on the mfr web site at $70 retail price. At first I could not believe such a small odd looking thing would work, but low and behold it did. The problem I have with all of this is the highway robbery billing. Selk charged $170 for a $70 retail antenna that they pay less than $36 for. This is in addition to install and travel time bringing the bill to over $290. When I called and mentioned that the retail price of this antenna was only $70 and I was billed $170 I was told "we are not in the retail business. Apparently they are in the 400% plus mark up business. caveat emptor

I love antiquing. If you didn't know any better, you'd swear I was an old lady. I get a serious…read morerush from bargain hunting and I love kitschy knickknacks. I especially love when they are affordable, which the majority of the things carried here seemed to be. They rent out space to various dealers, so there's a large assortment of vintage beer steins, art deco dish sets, tin signs, ceramic figures, books and much, much more. The store is spacious and set up in no particular order. I had seen a billboard on the side of the highway that gave vague directions (get off at exits 115 or 116 and turn left). I asked if this was the antique shop featured in the ad, because I had forgotten the name, and didn't even get the entire question out before I was corrected that this was *the* antique shop. I'm not sure if the woman working there is blissfully unaware that there's another antique shop just around the corner, but she was very friendly and eager to help me find whatever I might be looking for. I told her I was just there to browse and was left alone. Some of the items seemed a bit overpriced. I'm not sure if they think some of the things are worth more than they really are or if I'm not that good at pricing collectible objects. There was a 7pc Russian nesting doll going for almost $100 (that seems to be about right as an import, but I gotta scoff at it since I was able to buy them for ~$20 in Ukraine) and a few other things that caught my attention and held my interest just long enough to flip over the price tag and quickly walk away. However, I don't know how much the owner of the shop really has to do with marking things. As I mentioned, they rent the space out to people, so it's possible each person picks their own price and I can't blame Ruxton for having items outside of my price point.

I visit this shop each time I pass through the area. It is a one-owner shop, which is a bit…read moreunusual these days, but the owners are very friendly and their shop is clean, organized and has a lot of truly antique and older-vintage items, including items of local interest. There are two floors with a nice mix of items and prices are very reasonable. Items must be added frequently, as I always see new things when I stop here and even the things that haven't sold since my last visit are often rearranged into new displays, keeping the shop interesting and fresh. Definitely worth stopping for a look.

Today we had a weird mix up where the name of the recipient auto-filled to our default, which is OUR home address, not my MIL. Very fortunately, Osseo is a lovely, small town where few folks are strangers. Still, Heather went above and beyond to make sure the flowers arrived at the right place to the right person. To match, the flowers are simply gorgeous. They never disappoint! Thank you, Colby's Florist and especially to Heather for the attention to detail and beautiful work today as well as through the years past and those to come.
