We have an opportunity to have TNT Graphics put some old time Gold Trim border around our windows.

Plus have blue & white vintage style signs promoting B&B's Attic and Antiques Texas City created for our building

They will look like those beautiful new signs on the side of Mr Adair's Antique Shop

Yesterday we were not open
After weeks of being open 7 days a week it was time to catch up on paper work & there was plenty of it.

Plus it is the end of the month...you know what that means

Yes, time to go over the sales reports & write out the pay checks to our Dealers.

We have Dealer Spaces available for rent

10ft x 10ft space is $100. per month

Tired of paying storage fees to keep your collection of precious treasures hidden away in a dark garage where no one can see it?

People want to buy what you have packed away wrapped up in all those newspapers.

Sure, your assortment of "what nots" may be more valuable in the future, but Folks are spending money today.

Our Resale Shop sells antiques, collectibles, used furniture , vintage household goods, retro Ladies fashions & fashion accessories - plus Costume Jewelry, Artwork, Home Decor, & things for your garage and home workshop

14 Dealers rent space and bring in a variety of items to sell.

Please come meet our sales leaders for the month of May.

Mary and Cathy will be here this weekend

This Mother & Daughter team are examples of how Texas Business Women take a business from humble beginnings and build it up ...surviving the economic ups and downs of small town America.

Despite Hurricane Ike, the Bank Crash and Stock Market fiasco of 2008, B&B's Attic is still going strong.

Authentic Texans who take pride in doing things by the book.

Very knowledgeable about antiques and collectibles

They love the business

It's their livelihood.

Please support your local independent small business owner

We are Citizen Taxpayers who invest our time and money to pursue the American Dream, right here in Texas City.

It's a long walk to the big box stores up on the highway.

I say that because alot of our repeat customers don't drive anymore for a variety of reasons.

But they will walk or charge up the wheel chair to cruise to our stores.

For those customers who do drive, we have plenty of parking available across the street.

Every Customer is our #1 Priority

We are running a special on Flame Retardant Jumpsuits

Flame Retardant work shirts

If you work in the Plants...you know how expensive these are

Kim Dealer 8 & Monica Dealer 14 have good used flame retardant work clothes in stock.

Love Seats...we have four Love Seats in the showroom

Perfect for Studio Apartment

Dealers #13 and Dealer #2 offering 50% off discounts.

My name is Roland Dressler

I believe in the future of downtown Texas City

The business district has had a remarkable upgrade in roads, sidewalks, streetlamps, & better security with Police Officers keeping our street safe.

Small Businesses create 66% of the jobs in our country.

As a small business owner, I realize how fragile things are in my life and the lives of our neighbors.

Heard a line on a radio show...

"When poverty moves in...Love moves out"

We see it every day.

When you spend your money in our store,
your money remains in Texas City.

We make sure it stays in circulation through the Dry Cleaners, who starch & press my shirts.

To the Seamstress who hems my slacks.

We gas up at Valerio

Buy our Mushroom Pizza at Village Pizza

Get our Groceries from Food King.

It's always one deal at a time in the world of business.

I make sure our dollars are put back to work among our friends  
right here.

There's very little love for boarded up buildings and vacant lots.

Some parts of this proud city look like Detroit, Cleveland, or Youngstown.

Need to make some quick cash?

Interesting ideas I saw in a magazine at Kroger's

Best websites for earning extra cash

GAZELLE

The planet-conscious folks at Gazelle pay cash for your old electronic gadgets.

They'll fork over $100. for an i-Phone 3GS and upwards of $100 for an old Apple laptop. Plus: free shipping!

MICROWORKERS
Companies want Facebook Likes, YouTube votes, and positive tweets - so much so that they're willing to pay a dime or more per "micro-job" if you help them boost their social media presence with your clicks.
Yes, your're helping them game the system, but you just bought yourself lunch!

FIVERR

Have a quirky talent?

Make some money with it.

Named after a $5. bill, this site lets users post their talents for others to buy.

You earn $4 ( Fiverr nabs the other buck )

Talents range from the practical ( writing a blog post ) to the bizarre ( a custome message by an Alec Baldwin  impersonator

WeReward

This iPhone and Android app works  like Foursquare, but you earn points instead of badges.

Points are worth a penny , and you can collect them by checking in or for doing simple tasks like posting a pic of you drinking a Starbucks coffee.

Once your're finished shilling, you can trade in your points for cash.

Sometimes as much as 50 bucks - depending on how often you use the app.

SWAGBUCKS

Earn Swag Bucks for taking online company surveys, viewing online tutorial videos, and using Swagbuck's unique search engine. 

Trade the digital currency for the real stuff, in the form of gift cards and PayPal credit.

Sure it's mundane work, but one survey can pay up to $50.

Does Angry Birds pay you to waste time? 

I have not tried any of these yet.

Let me know if any of them work out for you

Please remember that our brick & mortar store front is located in the upcycled 1948 Jewel Theater building.


Why bulldoze what can be brought back to use?


A new roof & four new air conditioning units.


( We should have become Roofers & A.C. Techs )

This old Movie Theater is full of nostalgia & stacked high with things your Grand Parents & Great Grand Parents kept 
around the house & farm.

Blessings & Bargains across the street will be open next week.
Tilly & Betty got their air conditioning serviced.
