Silver State Plaza — Local services in Sparks

Silver State Plaza is just a few blocks from my house. Very convenient. I use CVS for my monthly Rx's. Their Pharmacy is open 24 hours. While waiting I gamble in their sectioned off gaming area. Video slots. Your always offered a free beverage when you walk into that area. Great Customer service. They also have a very good selection of Wine, Beer, and Hard Liquor. Very reasonable prices on the booze. I exercise at Planet Fitness in this Strip mall. I shop at Big 5, Fallas, and The Dollar Tree. Supercuts here has some very good hairstylists. There is also a Fancy Hair &Nails, Beautiful Bella Salon, or a Sally's Beauty Supply if your a do it yourselfer. I mail all my packages through Easy Mail which is next to Ross I believe. They rent P.O.Boxes here and I've known the nice lady who works there for years. There are 2 Major Banks in the Plaza. A Wells Fargo and a Bank of America. There is a convenience store at the very end of the Plaza near CVS called Around the Corner. They carry a little of everything and have a great selection of Marijuana pipes and Bongs. They also have a variety of accoutrements you may need such as replacement parts for your rigs. For food, Silver State Plaza offers a wide variety.
