The Holiday Light Store

A store that sells only holiday lights and is off the beaten path in an unusual part of town? And is painted teal green to boot? It does seem a little strange and leaves one to wonder how in the world they are able to survive with competition from big chain stores.
We’ve passed this place for years but in a desperate 3-​year search to find the perfect lighted snowman for the yard, I made a special trip to see what they had.
Upon entering, I was a bit disappointed to see a small, cramped showroom with only three tall racks packed with boxed lights. I poked around a bit before noticing a darkened area through a door that said «outdoor lights.»
The management must have noticed my curiosity and flipped a switch. To what did my wondering eyes should appear but a huge room filled from floor to ceiling with tons of outdoor lights. They gleamed and blinked in the most beautiful way… I could nearly hear the heavens singing above me!
The owner came over and was most helpful. She walked me around the gigantic room to show their various products and was more than accommodating when I made a few special requests. They carry all sorts of holiday lights, not just Christmas!
She made sure each item I purchased was working properly and took the time to plug them all in. She also had one of the storeroom guys help me load my car.
Overall, an excellent experience. The prices are a little high, but I was delighted to find quality items that were nowhere to be found in the chain stores. The personal customer service can’t be beat.
