......find a nearby scenic spot to start using all that stuff.....spring is coming.

On 2nd thought, that might make you find more stuff you need.......hey the HCE gang doesn't mind the occassional window-shopper, right?

i used to work like 5 minutes from there... i switched jobs back in April to a location that is way out of reach of HCE and it was like i got a raise!

i agree... going in there a few times a week will surely lighten your wallet a little.. hehe.

I was having a similar conversation with someone yesterday. Once a week I work out of a facility in Rosharon, which means about 12-2 I drive past Richmond on the Beltway. I said "Now if only there was a reason to go to HCE" to which the response was "There's always a reason to go into HCE, whether you have the money to do so is a different story."

sadly, I typically do not have the money so I just keep on driving :(
