People coming in to pick up their Sears order saw the many items she*s added -- unique crafls and country folk art, 'Pillows by Laurie,' lamp.s, knitted and croche!ed itemns, handmade jewelery, 'Blossomn Valley' greeting cards, cook hooks -- and said 'what is this store?' So I thought. why flot caîl it the 'Whatz-it Store,' explains Marie. Whitby residents love flot having to travel to Oshawa to shop at Sears, says Marie; they simply pick up a free* catalogue at Whatz-it, call 1 - 800-267-3277 to place their order and two days later, stop in to pick it up, she says. They can also mak-e paymnents on their Sears account, rtr merchandise, purchase gift certificates at Christmas time or apply for 'Sears Rapid Credit' and receive a card within minutes at the store, located at 1032 Brock Street South. I don't think a day goes by that I don't have customers say this place is too good to be true," Marie says. "Don't forget catalogues aré always available and are free at the Whatz-it Store."
