Back in the Day

If you're driving Route 66 through Claremore, and perusing the shops in downtown, then there's no reason you shouldn't stop by Back in the Day. You might might something to take home with you. There's quite a bit of new merchandise. There is vintage and retro pieces but I was surprised how many new products there was. The new pieces are things you'd see in Hobby Lobby or Home Goods but not as nice. The vintage pieces were priced high. Possibly, folks from big cities who are traveling through might not think the prices of vintage goods are as high as they are in their area. For example, tourists from Palm Springs, Los Angeles or New York. Street parking available. Open 7 days a week. Shorter business hours on Sunday.

This is a neat place. There's alot of cute things to choose from, and it's very vintage. But when I got to the checkout, the people running the register seemed very unhappy and annoyed by my presence.

Great store, fun and helpful staff. I was looking for a specific pipe holder similar to the one my dad has years ago, and they were great help at finding just what I needed.
