Thirty years ago when I was a plus-size teen I loved shopping at Catherine’s. Being in need of a few winter clothing items, I went to Catherine’s yesterday morning. I was displeased by the tepid welcome, as if my business was not really wanted. After looking around for a few minutes and enduring the general lack of interest in my needs, I left. I drove down Menaul straight to Avenue and had a shopping blast with a great and truly helpful salesperson, great selection, great quality, and everything I needed and quite a lot I decided I wanted. I will never return to Catherine’s.
