If you want to go thrifting, this is the best place. The radio station thrift store gets picked over by Tropicana, and the other stores are more popular with the college crowd. This place is kind of dirty and seedy, but there are some great finds if you look. Definitely check out the 80s rack and don't forget downstairs for $1 shoes.

Mike's Music sells new and used musical instruments and offers musical lessons. I bought a guitar here and never had any problems with it. I also took drum lessons. I've also sold several guitars and amps here. They always deal fairly with you and give a pretty good price for selling things. I'd definitely recommend this place to my friends.

Trust me, there are not many good import shops in the southern Illinois region, and this place is a pretty safe bet. The repair shop in the back is filled with reliable but moderatly priced service technitions that did a pretty good paint job on my Accord. This is an area referred to as a "college town" but suprisingly not a huge selection of less expensive vehicles.

I've been pretty happy with the things I've had printed at CopyMax. All of the workers are competent with the equipment, the prices are the cheapest in town and the customer service is head and shoulders above the Printing Plant or Staples. The color laser gives pretty true color, also.

Pags is a great place to get a pizza. Their crust is definitely the best in town; the thick and chewy and thin and crispy are equally good. They also have a great spaghetti special on Tuesday nights. You can get a complete meal for $4. Pags also has a nice selection of beers on tap and very reasonable prices.

Okay, I admit I spent many nights at the hangar. It is a cool bar. Kind of a dive inside but a step up from the other crappy bars like Stix. They usually get pretty good bands and have excellent drink specials. During my Carbondale days they mostly attracted rock,hippie,punk type bands and patrons. They have a couple of pool tables and I had many Tequila Tuesday nights at the hangar.
If they don't have a band, they usually had a dj but some nights it would just be pretty chill.
A must after visiting the hangar is to find the bagel man.

What a fun place to eat. You can color on the table with the provided crayons while you wait for your meal. The food is really good as well, but it is your average pub fare – nothing new or fancy. The walls are decorated with sports memorabilia and it's a fun place to gather to watch the local college games play on the TV while you enjoy a beer at the bar. It is always a delight to eat here.

It is so hard to find a deli that isn't a franchise anymore, and this is a well-kept secret it the heart of southern Illinois. The deli in the back is a perfect stop for lunchtime, wher eyou can get a fresh deli sandwhich or single-serving of salds. Free parking but a bit pricey, so watch your spending.

I am a big cat person; I have four. They are an essential part of my life; they're family. When I need to take these guys into the vet, I take them to Central Hospital for Animals. We've had the same vet for about two and a half years now. The vet is very attentive to the animals, but does not overly make over the cats (something they hate). We usually get in and out in about 30 minutes max, and this is with two cats. By the way, Central gives a 10% discount if you bring in two or more animals at the same time for care.
