Grasshopper

This place smells heavenly! I’ve been going in every week for almost a month now. And they have pretty good prices

I was gone from Erie for 15 years and to come home and find Grasshopper on peach was a welcome sign. I was thinking this would just be another head shop but its much more then just those items or clothes. My daughter who was 7 at the time asked for some summer outfits and wanted to check out the shop. Being a Dad I’m not the most skilled person in what looks cute on a girl. I asked the girls in the shop if they would help out my daughter. I wanted to give her the final say in what she looked good in. Often children don’t have a say in their style and favorite colors they are forced to shop at the gap or old navy and lets face it all that stuff really looks the same and does not make you look or feel unique. I remember it was raining like hell that day and the girls put together about 5 outfits for my daughter that looked great and they would mix well with the other clothes. Now for adults, I’m an engineer so I’m a big fan of function over style but I found a few pieces could wear that didn’t scream I’m a deadhead. The shop staff treated my daughter with respect and talked to her and not at her as we found when we went to the mall.
My job transferred me back to Phoenix and before we left the final week my daughter wanted to visit one last time. While we have head shops here in Phoenix the staff isn’t the same and its the people that make the business.
