Po.Co. Whatnots Antique Mall and Flea Market — Local services in Russellville

I really like this little shop and spend money in there every time I go in. But, I take extreme issue to my regular sized purse being treated like a vehicle for theft simply because it is one configured with backpack straps. I have seen purses bigger than mine configured with the regular shoulder straps not even get a second glance but mine is an issue. And not even every time, only sometimes. The first time it was mentioned my response was that it was not a backpack but my purse and if I couldn't have my purse on me I'd go. The lady accepted that and allowed me to shop. Today was the second time and the words of this lady were, "we can't allow that huge backpack in here"....Huge? Really? This is a regular to small sized purse.... this time I just left. I understand theft can be an issue but I do not appreciate being treated like a criminal because my purse has backpack straps. I have spent quite a bit of time working in retail and loss prevention and know the struggle is real but this is not how you deal with shrink. This is a bag that is less than a foot tall, and less than half a foot wide. It's not a school bag or full sized backpack of any sort. It is a purse that keeps the money I spend in it. The money I will no longer be...

Service is AMAZING with the staff at Po-Co Whatnots!!! The entire Lincoln family is an absolute joy to work with and are so pleasant. We just went in to setup today and they were so nice and welcoming. They jumped right in and helped in so many ways. I was so impressed by the wide selection of vendors that they have and the variety of items offered. We found several items for ourselves as well and EVERYTHING was an outstanding deal! Great value, service and selection all under one roof - I can't wait for them to expand!!! You are bound to find something wonderful in your price range and leave feeling like you were...

OMGoodness!! POCO has some awesome items! I just purchased a beautiful swirled blue bowl. Love it! And if you stop in to browse, you will likely buy! So many beautiful things. Be sure to check out the corner wall with the sparkly art… not diamond art, but real rhinestone jewels. These pieces are amazing! You might think they are a bit pricey, but check out the detail in each piece. Well worth the prices for one...
