It's funny because I've walked by this place so many times without ever going in. All I could remember was this dude out front who would shout 'YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GONNA FIND AT ACTIVE SURPLUS' and slight variations therein.
Turns out he was right. I really didn't know what I would find when I first sauntered up the steps to the 2nd floor store.
There is so much shit in this place that based on volume alone you couldn't possibly walk around and not find something that you didn't realize you needed. Even if you don't intend on buying it's worth having a peruse.
