Does anyone know of stores that are open in Florence?

Incredibly stupid not to stock up necessary items before a storm like this. Only a few days warning right? Now you want to go out and not only endanger your life but others lives as well.

Thank you for the commentary Tool and yes as I stated, it was stupid and naive not to heed the warning, but now that the damage is done, once again I am asking anyone who wished to be HELPFUL if they know of any stores in the Florence area, especially convenience stores that are open today and the location. Thank you.

I have been wondering the same thing Rocky.

I don't think I need anything right now, but I guess I just want to know what is open just in case.

However, I seriously doubt I can get out of my driveway and up the big hill in my neighborhood. I am probably just stuck. Which has its own appeal.

The Mapco on the corner of Helton and Rickwood is open!

THANK YOU Mrs. Carl! THAT is actually the store I was wondering about since it is right down the street from my apartment!

Does anyone know if the post office is open?

Do they have a number that is not just a recording?

Just a reminder: Make sure the store is really opened for business before you go "shopping."

You are so welcome!

The Mapco on Helton/Rickwood is now closed. I think they ran out of change and the banks are closed, and wanted to get employees home before dark.
