			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You don&#8217;t normally think of a custom picture framing shop as a great location for affordable, last minute gifts.  But, visit FastFrame at 117 S. Kentucky Avenue in Downtown Lakeland, and you&#8217;ll be surprised.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">For the ladies on your list, you&#8217;ll find Anju art jewelry<a href="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/2011/12/suprising-source-for-affordable-last-minute-gifts-fastframe/anju1/" rel="attachment wp-att-12531"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-12531" style="border: 0.25px solid black;" title="Anju1" src="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/i/Anju1-170x250.jpg" alt="" width="170" height="200" /></a> with necklace and earring sets for only $25.  Cuff bracelets are only $20.  There&#8217;s a story behind this jewelry and it&#8217;s not mass produced in China!<a href="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/2011/12/suprising-source-for-affordable-last-minute-gifts-fastframe/anju2/" rel="attachment wp-att-12532"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12532" style="border: 0.25px solid black;" title="Anju2" src="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/i/Anju2-250x112.jpg" alt="" width="250" height="112" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>From the Siam Women&#8217;s Co-op, you can enjoy the Twice Rice bags made from recycled rice or sugar bags &#8211; again &#8211; nothing mass produced here and your purchase helps support a wonderful cause.<a href="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/2011/12/suprising-source-for-affordable-last-minute-gifts-fastframe/bags/" rel="attachment wp-att-12533"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-12533" style="border: 0.125px solid black;" title="bags" src="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/i/bags-185x250.jpg" alt="" width="125" height="150" /></a>  Pick from one of many styles and designs featuring the great art found on these sugar and rice labels.  Prices start at $12.</p>
<p>High-quality photo albums featuring &#8220;flex pages&#8221; for 4&#8243; x 6&#8243; or 5&#8243; x 7&#8243; photos are a favorite for only $20.  And, as a bonus,<a href="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/2011/12/suprising-source-for-affordable-last-minute-gifts-fastframe/albums/" rel="attachment wp-att-12534"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-12534" style="border: 0.25px solid black;" title="Albums" src="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/i/Albums-187x250.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="200" /></a>they come with a gift certificate for custom framing.  So, it&#8217;s almost like getting the album for free!</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve just got to see the prints of Rob Smith, Jr. cartoon characters &#8211; Florida&#8217;s native beasties! <a href="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/2011/12/suprising-source-for-affordable-last-minute-gifts-fastframe/smith/" rel="attachment wp-att-12535"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-12535" style="border: 0.25px solid black;" title="Smith" src="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/i/Smith-128x250.jpg" alt="" width="128" height="250" /></a>   These fun, colorful prints are only $15!  The photos don&#8217;t do them justice!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-10200 alignleft" src="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/i/Boyd-Pridmore-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />Boyd Pridmore is a man of many ideas and endless energy! He is an entrepreneur, from &#8220;Jesus is the Reason for the Season&#8221; yard signs to &#8220;Flabalsawood&#8221; Hiking Sticks, castor oil remedies to the Nail -Saver Key Keeper. Boyd sees a need for something and figures out a way to make it happen! Retired from the phone company, and never one to sit around much, Boyd has made a new career of keeping himself busy. He embodies the age old adage:  If you don&#8217;t use it, from body to mind, you lose it!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">A regular visitor to The General Store, always with new ideas just waiting for the avenue to make them become reality, Boyd&#8217;s inventions are also a part of our local offerings. Beginning around November, we carry his &#8220;Jesus is the Reason for the Season&#8221; signs that he designed in 2005. In his design for getting as many signs as possible out, the double-sided coroplast signs (with stand) sell for his cost of only $3.00. Once only a locally offered item, hand delivered by Boyd, they are now available nation-wide (although, he has succombed to mail delivery!)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Available year-round, his self-trademarked Flabalsawood hiking sticks are handcrafted, surprisingly lightweight and make a great gift for those outdoorsy types, better yet, they are made from a renewable source readily available in Florida &#8211; castor bean trees/weeds! These works sell for $20-$25.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">One of his best sellers at The General Store is the Nail-Saver Key Keeper. This is an item that does exactly as it&#8217;s <img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-10206" src="http://www.downtownlakelandfl.com/i/key-keeper21-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />name implies &#8211; saves fingernails from the perils of keyrings! Simple in design and use, yet highly effective. Recently I was demonstrating the Nail-Saver to a customer who told me, in her deepest Southern charm, &#8220;Dahlin&#8217; I don&#8217;t need one of those, my husband takes care of that stuff&#8221; to which he quickly responded &#8220;I&#8217;ll take two!&#8221; Well, she was right, he did take care of it!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Boyd, in his true entrepeneurial spirit and hopes of getting his invention out to the public, is offering a GENERAL STORE SPECIAL for the month of June:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>BUY ONE NAIL-SAVER KEY KEEPER for $2.25, GET ONE FREE!</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Help a local support a local!</em></p>

<p>Yep, good old &#8220;sippin&#8217; sodas&#8221; &#8211; the ones that take you back to a simpler time. From Boylan&#8217;s Birch Beer (think rootbeer, but a bit different) and Black Cherry to Frostop&#8217;s Orange and Creme (just like a melted Creamsicle!). We&#8217;ve even managed to harness RC Cola, Nehi Peach and Grape (Radar O&#8217;Reilly would be SO happy!) and, drumroll please &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230; direct from your favorite mountain vacation&#8230;&#8230;.. CHEERWINE! All are in glass bottles and most feature pure cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup. Come on down, grab a bottle (and Moonpie!), pull up a rocking chair out front and enjoy watching folks attempting to parallel park. Still the best entertainment deal for the money &#8211; a drink and show!</p>
