I have stopped into Glenmont Shopping Center on several occasions. I have mostly just run into the CVS store to use one of my extra care coupons or extra care bucks. That's what I did today.

The other store that I have been into here was Staples. It was about 2 months ago for a gift card contracted work related project.

Great cheap food places to visit here and an outstanding Barber shop we've only visited once. When we tried to visit a second time we saw the guy that had previously followed us to our car at night just hanging around the entrance and looking high. So you know, PTSD kicked in and we left.
Some days when I really crave some of the food from one of their establishments I take the risk. Sometimes...
