I own an Antique/Vintage/Thrift store in Florida...

Anyway, would love to hear from anyone and about your experiences in the business. I am in both a good and bad situation... I have a historic building (1904) which I own (saves on overhead), but which is located in a small town which lowers the foot-traffic (always a trade-off it seems).
