Shopping At The Dry Cleaners
Who knew you could actually buy clothes at the dry cleaners? When I was at Martinizing Dry Cleaners over on Leonard st. last week I found out that you can in fact purchase items that have been there for a long period of time and the owners have not come to pick them up. I believe they keep them for a year before they offer them up for sale. I was told that all the Martinizing locations do this. I saw men's suit jackets, women's coats and even jeans for sale. The price is what it cost to have them dry cleaned. Not a bad deal! Go here to find a location near you.
