Experiences at Pop Rocket 66

We have a contest in the shop called "Oddest Customer Request/Comment". I think the best one for me so is, (said in a very loud, somewhat crazy voice) "WHERE CAN I BUY A HANDGUN?".

Music is a borderline obsession here. When we started up, I took the time to import my entire collection into our POS machine. Various employees have contributed their share, and we now have several thousand songs stored here in the shop. Lists are complied, contests are waged and depending on your mood, the weather or the tone of the customers, you can listen to anything you want. Personal favorites right now for me are serious bebop jazz, horrible euro disco and really 'of the moment' indie stuff....

Probably the best thing about Flagstaff, apart from the people, is our downtown. Since Pop Rocket 66 is located in downtown, I can walk to just about anywhere worth walking to whether food, art, or other shops. It is a great place to be and a great place to own a business. My favorites are Pay n' Take for snacks, Zani's (to visit fellow shop owners), The Diner for lunch, Late for the Train for a happy hour espresso and finally Ulibarri's for a trim....

Well, I work for myself. I run a small pop culture gift shop. The idea for this shop has just kind of formed itself. Opening a shop can be both very planned and very organic. In the end, it is a very exciting experience.
