Items located at a pawnshop, I can't wait for the New Seymour Pawn to open, it will have a drive thru for people like this law breaker.

Believing that about 75 percent of the residents in Seymour are living above their paycheck, the new pawn shop should do good.

Hey if you all don't shop at the pawn shop then you are spending way to much on your toys!!! I find great deals at them all the time. I have done business with Lora for years and she is very reputable. Be thankful it's her pawn shop.

Pawn shops say they help people that are distressed. Truth is they prey on those that are hurting. They buy for a dime, and sell @ a 200% markup. Tell me that is a place I would want to support, and I will try to sell you some cow pods.
