A Note from your Citizen Journalist -

NOT JUST OFFICE STUFF & JUST DOGGY STUFF, located on 21st Street in Ole Town Purcellville will be closing the doors permanently on August 31st (Ironically marking the two year anniversary of our store’s opening). It is certainly a tough market out there with the struggling economy, and with only a handful of local businesses supporting us, sadly it was not enough to keep the doors open.

We are having a clearance sale on all the office & school supplies, leather items, greeting cards, Crane Stationery, and select Doggy items (as well as the displays, cabinets & shelving - all must go!!) through the end of the month. What a better time to get your back to school supplies, not only at a discount, but right here in Purcellville!!

I wish to extend my thanks for the patrons & select businesses for their kindness, words of encouragement & patronage over the past two years. For the many of you who are also struggling with your business or personal finances, I ask that you stay strong in your faith and watch for the next door that God may open for you!! Indeed, it has been a pleasure to serve you. Please call me if there is anything I can do for you before the August 31st closure.

With kind regards,
