| - I visited the Penny Pincher behind the Park Road Shopping Center and wasn't too impressed overall. For starters, if you didn't know what to look for you may not find it - it is BEHIND the Park Road Mall, among some other antique shops and a small Indian restaurant. It's a small consignment store that carries shoes, pocketbooks and accessories along with clothing, but I did not see anything here that was exceptionally worth going for.
If you are young or looking for a young look, you may want to look elsewhere. Lots of what was on these racks was conservative, from Chicos, and sort of blended, if you know what I mean. Just a few nice pieces that were really different, like the gold beaded shawl on display. The shoe/pocketbook section is small and standard, at best. The woman who was working here was very sweet though, very attentive and kept asking how she could help.
If you are into consignment and in the area you should probably check out some of the other great salons before this one, such as sweet repeats in Dilworth.
