Eternal Offerings

Eternal Offerings is located on North Brook Terrace along The Mall. Being up here means we deal with a lot of people walking by, especially when the weather is nice. The shop isn't very large, so we have to be careful about how we stack things on the shelves. It’s a bit of a climb to get up here, but the view is nice if you take a second to look out the window. We spend most of our time dusting the stock and talking to the people who wander in. Some are tourists looking for something to take home, and others are locals we see every week. We don't use any high-tech systems. We just write things down and keep track of what people are buying. It can get quite cold in the winter months, and we spend a lot of time huddled near a small heater while waiting for customers. The floorboards creak a little when you walk on them, which gives the place a bit of character, though we probably should have fixed that years ago. We aren't trying to be a big chain or anything. It is just a small shop where we try to have a good variety of things available. We like the pace of life on The Mall. It’s a lot of walking and talking, and that suits us just fine.
