On
Saturday morning, shoppers were anxious to scour the aisles at the
Pink Shutter in Lincoln, seeking items to add to their large plastic
bags for buck-a-bag days at the popular resale shop. It felt like
the good old days, with a slight modification. All the shoppers were
respectful of the requirement to wear a face mask while shopping and
social distancing. At the counter, store manager Jennifer Hiedbreder
waited on customers from behind a plexiglass shield.
Logan County's coronavirus numbers are way down right now, and it
appears that those who are out and about hope to keep it that way.
The buck-a-bag days continue today through Thursday.
