Is anyone familiar with the Peebles chain of department stores?

[Bunny]

They are building one a couple of miles from where I live. I've never heard of this chain. Are they similar to anything I may know, such as Target. Wally Mart, TJ Maxx, etc.?

1. It's a step above that

More like JC Penny's.

3. Oh, that's good to know. The only store within 15 miles is K Mart.

So it will be good to have someplace else to shop.

2. Wasn't that Fred and Wilma's kid?

[Bunny]

4. Tee hee.

5. Look for a gorilla sitting in the window...

with a 'for sale' sign. Gorilla's name is Magilla.

6. I only knew of them down South

There was one in my dad's hometown in southern VA. Just a department store. Primary clothing and some small goods.

I haven't been to one in years but for this particular community when I was a kid it was the local lifeline before K-mart, Wal-Mart, etc...
