I had the opportunity to visit the source as my household needed an audio optical cable. What is that used for? I'm not entirely sure, I was just told the brand and the price and told to go get it.
The store has covid precautions set up. There is a sign asking all customers entering the store to use the automatic hand sanitizer dispenser at the front. There are arrows on the ground indicating which ways customers should walk. These were a bit funny though they all seemed to just point into the store with no way to get out. They also have plexiglass set up at the registers to protect their employees.
When I walked in an associate was over almost instantly to help. I let her know what I was looking for and she checked with another employee to find it. It was a super quick and easy transaction. The only thing I will note is that it was a little overpriced versus what you can get from Amazon.
I haven't been inside The Source in ages and was delighted with how well organized everything was. Gone are the days of the very cluttered Radio Shacks. They had a small console gaming session with some accessories and games. I kind of liked that it was the pared down version with only the most popular titles. They also had a lot of really fun lamps. Yes - lamps. There were smaller Himalayan salt ones, a globe lamp that you can actually draw on and erase, and some utility ones that are also built in desk organizers. A good visit all in all since I accomplished my mission and got some inspiration for desk decorating. read more
