C-Mart...You bring it and you cart it away?
It caught my eye, yes it did this morning, as I was reading The Baltimore Sun, that sweet familiar handwritten notice. Only one place has ads that look like that and smells of….ooohhh, bargains. ♥ C-mart!! Kind of.
This is a do-it-yourself kind of C-Mart….it’s a flea market, ok? I can rent space and sell all the things I bought at C-Mart that perhaps I shouldn’t have ( the Marc Jacobs Venetia handbag comes to mind). They’re calling it The Big Tarp, and it will be not at the latest C-mart location but at the old Forest Hill one….the one I always got lost trying to get to. Anyway, someone…I’m assuming the original owners of C-Mart as they still own this property….is opening up and is renting table space now…75 cents a square foot. Not bad I guess.
And here’s the great thing about it it….. in a down economy, when people are hurting, this place will provide a place not just for people to spend money, but also a place to MAKE SOME MONEY…..that can’t be anything but providential. The Big Tarp will be open every Saturday and Sunday. So, there it is. No, C-Mart isn’t returning, but I’m keeping the door open and the welcome light on. See you there!
