This just in ......

Our beloved store was saved by the local Fire Department!  A big 'Thank You' to the gentlemen who risk their lives every day for people in need.  A car caught on fire under the hood after having been parked in the same spot for about 20 t o 30 minutes.  Randomly!  A barber from the neighbouring store, Exclusives Hair Studio, attempted to control the damage by pouring huge buckets of water on the car.  The fire only accelerated and proceeded to burst further into flames.  The tires popped and some smaller particles burst into the air.  Just in time, before the imminent explosion, the Fire Department arrived, working quickly and diligently they controlled the fire.  Unfortunately, they could not extinguish the flames without cutting the front of the car apart.  The owner of the car arrived just as the Fire Department broke the doors open and secured her belongings which remained in the car throughout the misfortune.  What a sad moment to witness.  We can only imagine.  We hope the young lady will  recover from this shocking event.
As for the Fire Department and the men who risk their lives: Thank you for your efforts.  It sweetened the otherwise nearly tragic moment when the handsome firefighter walked into the store.  To the firefighters: thank you and thank  you for browsing in our store.  We are reserving a special discount for you with your next purchase or gift.
Above we posted some of the pictures of the unfortunate moment.  Luckily no person or animal was injured.  Our store remained unharmed and  in one piece thanks to the quick response from the firefighting heroes.
We did notice paparazzi in the background, across the street, ready to report the event!  We often wondered where you are hiding.  We SEE you too!  With big lenses and camera bags these men are always on the scene....which brings us to our next post: paparazzi.
