Well, kind of, at least for us. See, we have moved. After about 20 years in the Swissvale Shopping Center, I am kind of sad to leave. However, the sweet part is being able to once again set up a store - new products, new place, new computers, new shelving, some new people, some new brands - Samsung, LG, Agga, VentAHood - and of course some old reliables - Maytag, GE, Viking, Bosch, etc.<br />Even though our new place is only about 3 blocks from our old place, we are finding it is even easier for us to get in and out - just up from the parkway we are.<br />We still have a ways to go - we will be a work in progress for a while,<br />but stop in anytime to see us.<br />Rocky<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1739142106174193610-5271172752488758970?l=perlasapplianceplus.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Perla's Appliances Plushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09758222757782506842noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1739142106174193610.post-66161325183516131492009-11-13T10:06:00.000-08:002009-11-13T10:27:46.890-08:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_F_HgeK8_ze4/Sv2lEVfpJiI/AAAAAAAAABQ/9C8EYSd2pvQ/s1600-h/100_0006.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_F_HgeK8_ze4/Sv2lEVfpJiI/AAAAAAAAABQ/9C8EYSd2pvQ/s200/100_0006.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403656621822387746" /></a><br /><br />Lately I seem to find it interesting when a word or phrase out there today brings up a different connotation for me.<br />Black Friday -<br /> For me, a good Steely Dan song on a very good album, (Katy Lied) 1975 - had absolutely nothing to with going shopping the day after Thanksgiving.<br /><br /> " When black friday comes....<br /> gonna do just what I please...gonna wear no socks & shoes...<br /> with nothin to do but feed all the kangaroos"<br /><br />I just know when Donald Fagen wrote this he was not at all thinking about a $199 flat screen tv ... or a $399 Whirlpool Washer.. or a $498 Ge Refrigerator... but, alas, this is my world now as I am a retailer making plans for the holiday shopping season, including Black Friday Sales!<br /><br /> "When black friday comes....I'm gonna dig myself a hole<br /> Gonna lay down in it til I satisfy my soul"<br /><br />Didn't I used to take off the day after Thanksgiving?? I think I did. Have I progressed?<br /><br /> "Gonna let the world pass by me...<br /> the archbishop's gonna sanctify me...<br /> and if he don't come across I'm gonna let it roll"<br /><br />I think my best idea for my Black Friday promotion just hit me - a free Steely Dan Cd for anybody who actually reads this and buys something from us on "Black Friday"!<br /><br />Rocky<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1739142106174193610-6616132518351613149?l=perlasapplianceplus.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Perla's Appliances Plushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09758222757782506842noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1739142106174193610.post-66811011337340514012009-11-03T12:00:00.000-08:002009-11-13T10:52:02.311-08:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_F_HgeK8_ze4/Sv2qYFYxzlI/AAAAAAAAABY/mMT1rTIIN9k/s1600-h/100_0030.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_F_HgeK8_ze4/Sv2qYFYxzlI/AAAAAAAAABY/mMT1rTIIN9k/s320/100_0030.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403662458654150226" /></a><br />Introducing !! <br /><br /> Marissa Perla<br /><br />Newly Appointed Social Media Director - Perla's Appliances Plus<br /><br /><br />Hello!!!!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1739142106174193610-6681101133734051401?l=perlasapplianceplus.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Perla's Appliances Plushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09758222757782506842noreply@blogger.com0
