Cliff’s lunchboxes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I go to a hairdresser near Castro and 18th in San Francisco. Each time I go, I visit a hardware\/variety shop (do you remember TG&Y<\/a>?) called Cliff’s Variety<\/a>. It is great place to get stocking stuffers. They have some fabric and craft supplies. I also get postcards there when I am running low on SF postcards. They have a nice toy department and wonderful housewares. It is the kind of place you can find that weird thing you need.<\/p>\n

Their strength is creativity and creative problem solving. I have seen the most wonderful window displays and endcaps in their stores. I have brought them a number of things to help me repair. The most notable was the YM’s bassoon case (rented from his school). The handle broke off and I didn’t want to spend the money on a new case. Three awesome guys at Cliff’s worked out a way to fix the handle and didn’t even charge us for their time.<\/p>\n
