Want your POS to get a scrubbing and look — and smell — like new? These guys can deliver. For as long as I can remember — which means, as long as I didn’t want to drive a car that looked like it was the second home of a Florida frat boy — I’ve counted on these guys to scrub, wipe and polish my ride. They’ve never done me wrong, and what they offer is beyond the ordinary. Love them — and the scented pads they put under my front seat. A word of warning, though: I’m not the only one who feels that way, so be prepared to wait in line. —Cathy Salustri
Goods & Services: Local business is good business.
Local business is good business.
Who would’ve known that we’d spend our mid-30s (and beyond) collecting buttons and pins for our lapels and guitar straps? Thanks to the comic book-inspired selection at Tampa’s Bronze Age Buttons and veteran local comics artist/musician Josh Sullivan’s wide variety of enamel pins both cute and snide, getting older (and throwing around our disposable income) never felt — or looked — so cool. —Ray Roa/Scott Harrell
