We were told not to touch anything- ask for help as a stack of bolts had fallen on a customer. We DID notice metal shopping carts filled with fabric on the stores porch when we parked. That was a clue to what was inside. To be honest, there was nothing I needed bad enough to buy there. It was beyond claustrophobic. I felt like I was in a tunnel maze. Once was enough. It was definitely an experience.
Have to agree about Obie's. Beyond claustrophobic definitely describes it! It's so overwhelming, I just walked in and walked out my second time there. First time spent maybe 10-15 minutes, then had to get out.

Edit: Didn't realize I had posted on this thread in June!
