Reply to comment by snorkelbagel in Snow Storm by TwoCanSee

I worked in a retail computer store in the early 90’s. The owners didn’t give a hoot about weather - state is open? We are open. The number of guys who would show up to buy random unnecessary items was huge. Never expensive or enough to justify staying open that day, but always a bunch of weirdos who decided that THAT was they day they needed to buy a spare $10 mouse or a CD Cleaner.

I also worked a computer store in the 90s, can confirm. Was always someone who would drive through the snow storm to pick up a BNC connector or a stack of blank CDs
