Shopping

If there's one thing that we don't lack for here in Ocean County, it's shopping.

There are many times during the spring and summer that I find myself at a weekend without any specific plans. Thankfully, there are plenty of places in and near Ocean County to get outdoors and enjoy some fresh air!

"Oh look," my sister said, "We can get waxing done at Walmart!"  There was a bit of sarcasm in her tone so I looked up at the sign she was pointing at.  It read, "Ask About Our Waxing Services."  We were out in Western Pennsylvania at the time and both of us chuckled at the idea of getting waxed at Walmart...

The AMC Lowes Brick Plaza movie theater is the closest theater to where I live. But, if I'm being honest, I'd rather drive a little and go to Marquee Cinemas on Route 37 or The AMC Lowes at Monmouth Mall. If you're similar, things may be about to change.
