Last 5-10-25 Cent Store

This store in Northville used to be a Woolworths.  When I was a kid there were Woolworth stores all over the east~~maybe in other parts of the country too, I'm not sure.
When I was a senior in high school, my first job was at a Woolworths which was within walking distance of my home in the Bronx.  Minimum wage was $1.25/hour.  I thought I was rich when I got my check.
This store boasts that it's the last 5-10-25 cent store in the country and it may well be.  It does good business and it's a destination spot for people who visit upstate NY.
