What makes me Happy? … Atlantic Highlands!
I knew I would be getting it, but still it’s a wonderful surprise when you get a gift certificate…for any amount…to spend as you like! That’s what happens at Bayshore Pharmacy if you belong to their Shopper Rewards Program.
You get a card to let you know you’re a member then you show it every time you buy some of those terrific gifts or other things at Bayshore. Then lo and behold! They keep all the records and all of a sudden, send you a gift card that you can spend in the store! Of course the note with it also tells you they offer shots for flu, shingles, pneumonia, whopping couch, Hepatitis, Meningitis and of course the dreaded Covid, but that isn’t as much fun as walking through the gift section and finding something you just have to buy!
It’s like going into Jaspan’s the Hardware Store! I might be off a bit, but it seems to me and everybody else who shops there, that everybody on this staff knows exactly where everything is in this store with thousands and thousands of items, and then they even suggest which of the several items that would work for you would work best. On top of that, they’re friendly, pleasant, patient and treat you like you’re the only customer in the store! What class!
Or Renaissance where no matter who is managing all those wonderful shops inside those red doors that particular day, it’s just like talking over a neighbor’s fence with an old friend. And there are so many neat things to find. There is bound to be something new every day! Once again just like at Bayshore or Jaspan’s. you always find something that you really need, even if you didn’t know you needed it. What fun!
And of course Strada is the perfect place for appetizers or pizza and a relaxing cocktail or glass of wine, either inside or just outside the door giving you a great view of First Avenue and all the folks walking, talking and shopping there!
