This past week I was roped in to accompanying my mom on a business trip to the great state of Alabama. Along our journey, we made a stop in the quaint little river laced town of Scottsboro, Alabama. Time and time again we had been enticed by veteran shoppers to gather our courage and make the pilgrimage to Scottsboro. For you see, it is there that unclaimed goods from air travelers far and wide are resurrected, purified and organized for consumers of any age.
Covering over 40,000 square feet, this Mecca of treasures holds many a quest for the bargain shopper extraordinaire. Placing over 7,000 items out per day, it always holds a hunt for the eager shopper. We spent hours searching and sifting through all sorts of electronics, clothes, jewelry, books, movies, instruments, golf clubs and anything else you could possibly take on a plane. There was no telling what we would stumble upon in this sea of lost luggage, missing merchandise, and forgotten finds. All of our treasures came at a wallet friendly price that seemed so unreal. How could it be possible to walk out of the store with a new pair of Nike shoes, 3 shirts, 2 hats and a few pieces of jewelry, all under $100? The variety of finds, along with their prices, absolutely blew us away.
After making this trip it is easy to why this warehouse of inspirational finds lures over a million eager seeker each year. Assuredly, we will embark on yet another thrill seeking, habit forming, soul restoring, therapeutic shopping expedition to Unclaimed Baggage.
