Big Idea Big Sale
The Big Idea Info Shop (504 Millvale Avenue) has some exciting things happening. Taken directly from their newsletter:
Back to School Sale:
August 15th through 30th, any student ID will get you 50% off of all used books and 10% off all new books. Don't have a student ID? We'll give you the discount if you bring
us an apple! We'll make pie. It will be great. We make a damn fine apple pie.
(Disclaimer: a big bag of apples will not result in a bigger discount, but it
will make more pies.)

Finish a zine this summer in time for the party! Saturday, August 30, 2008.

i guess i have about 12 minutes of fame left.
I'm proud to say that this very blog (and this very blogger) was mentioned in an article about the Banana Stand in this week's Pitt News!
Cynthia Yogmas, a library and information sciences student at Pitt, who runs Bloomfield412.blogspot.com, said the addition of the Banana Stand is much needed.
"I think it complements the Grasso Roberto cafe, another neighborhood business nearby which serves fresh gelato," she said.
Yogmas also added that new businesses help beautify the historically Italian neighborhood.
"If you walk down Liberty Avenue, closer to the Bloomfield Bridge, you'll see a vacant storefront that used to be an ice cream shop but hasn't operated in years. That's unfortunate, considering the family/community element of the neighborhood who would benefit from it. [Daisy's Banana Stand] is something we really needed," she said.
