A couple weeks ago, LuLu's in Greenpoint brought our drinking together with carousel horsies, this week we guzzled under crazy clown paintings at Circus- next week we fully expect to be handed a frozen drink on a Ferris Wheel. Until Coney Island reopens, though, we'll happy go back- the popcorn may have been sitting on the bar for awhile, the peanuts may need to be shucked and hot dogs may not be kosher but it's all free. And nothing washs down a free hot dog like a $2 beer, right after work. Bottles and drafts (this is not a mixed drink establishment) are $3-$4 and because this is brought to you from the former manager of Rudy's Bar & Grille, it is open 11 am-4am every single day.

Piggybacking off the success of the Babies "R" Us location, open up a day care center next door that would cater to the parents who could shop and then go across the park for lunch or early dinner.

Did you have any nightmarish experiences while shopping this weekend? What are some of the non-harmful-spray tactics people use to get their goods?

Analysts report that much of their business comes during the holiday season (does it really take analysts to realize that?), so the announcement was not a final decision, but a potential shift in their business.
