Used Kids Parking Update

We recently learned that the closest parking spots to Used Kids will be unavailable ON AND OFF due to construction related to the Wendy's renovation. We were shocked to find out the news, and offer our most sincere apologies for any inconvenience! HOWEVER, here is a map of multiple metered parking options, as well as two different lots that you can use when you come to see us. Meters at Woodruff seem to be available most of the time, and the church parking lot is an excellent option if you don't want to worry about a time limit! We are also happy to come to YOU for large vinyl buys!
