We update and expand this listing as time permits. We started off with our closest neighbors and those places we frequent on a regular basis. Part of the reason we started this list is to give our customers some added information as to what other businesses are close by. Hopefully, you can see something here that interests you or your family, and you don't have to make a choice about coming to see us, or going to Wal-Mart for clothes or other stuff.
There have been several changes in Our Neighborhood during the past couple of months. We will get that information for you in the next couple of weeks. As I said earlier, this is a project being accomplished as time permits.
We want to take this opportunity to introduce you to some of our neighbors. Downtown O'Fallon has a lot more to offer than many people think. While you won't find any "Super Stores," there are many small stores offering quality products at reasonable prices. What is more important, you'll find people who are very knowledgeable about the products and services they sell.
On a personal note, our own Vickie has become a Mary Kay Personal Beauty Consultant. She really likes their skin care products and fragrances, but also has their full line of makeup. You are invited to stop by and talk with her about Mary Kay, or visit her Web site. She knows how to budget her time and would be willing to meet with you outside of her normal work hours. If she isn't busy, ask her about Satin Hands.

This is the place that has made us such "experts" in flowers and floral arrangements. Of course, we don't know squat about flowers, but they always put together very nice arrangements at a reasonable price. In the end, we get the credit for having picked out a wonderful arrangement., and only we know that we never even saw it before! Thank you folks, you keep us looking good. |

The old fashion neighborhood drug store where you can actually talk to the pharmacist. I was amazed at all the stuff I was taking when all I wanted to do was dry up my sinuses. John is full of good information to help you make the right choice when it comes to your medicine. |
| Towne Lounge | A family type of establishment. Very clean, and a nice place to unwind. Good food, and a nice variety. Tuesday is Taco Night, and Thursday is Golf Night. They have a fish fry on Friday. My only complaint is that they don't make pina coladas! |
