You can find almost anything here, especially things you had no idea you even wanted or needed, including a "huggy jesus" doll which apparently I had to have. The "active surplus" town crier is also a downtown staple.
anyone interested in building a robot, assembling their own p.a., furnishing a dollhouse, circuit bending a keyboard, filling a stocking or adding a realistic looking stuffed cat to their lives should visit active surplus.
it is a mind blowing emporium of weird and cool items and materials to build anything and everything. plus there is a scary gorilla that stands outside sometimes!
