Moxie, owned by Megan Morrison, located at 230 E. Lincoln Highway.
HOW HOT ARE THE PRICES?
"Our philosophy is to offer really good prices every day, and then have two to three storewide sales per year where everything in the store is a certain percentage off," Morrison said. "I always bare in mind the fact that I want to have a lot of things to offer in the 30-and-under price range. In fact, many of our clothing items are 20 or less."
WHAT'S HOT FOR CUSTOMERS?
"We work really, really hard to find unusual things," Morrison said. "We have loyal fans of the store who come in all the time because they say they never know how we're going to do something or what we're going to offer and they're always surprised. That's the secret to our success; we keep people guessing."
WHAT'S HOT IN THE STORE?
With 8,000 square feet and two floors full of quality, quirky products, Moxie is completely worth the walk into town. From vintage clothing, to jewelry, to books, the shop with artistic flair has something for anyone and everyone.
