Sears Scratch & Dent Appliance Center West Babylon NY Located in the K-Mart shopping center on Montauk Highway and across the street from the Great South Bay Shopping Center. The appliance center is also known as the "scratch & dent" place. Most of the appliances do not have a single dent or even have scratches on them. I can attest to this since I bought a washing machine from them last year and it doesn't have one single scratch or dent. It must have been a floor model. It did come with a 90 day warranty and I haven't had any problems with it. Sears Appliance Outlet Center has every appliance you can think of. They even have high-end treadmills at very low prices.

Bagel & Deli Creations in West Babylon, New York This deli is my favorite place for bagels. They are more than just a deli however. They also do catering. My favorite bagel is their french toast bagel with cream cheese. Not low fat cream cheese, the real stuff! That bagel is smothered in cinnamon sugar and syrup. It's like a desert its so delicious! All of their bagels and other breads are always fresh and soft, never hard and stale. They have breakfast creations including egg white omeletts and breakfast wraps. Oh, and let's not forget pancakes! No other deli around the area makes pancakes. They have a choice of buttermilk, blueberry, chocolate chip (another favorite of mine) and good 'ol french toast!

Bed Bath And Beyond West Babylon New York Located at the Great South Bay Shopping Center in West Babylon This store is my favorite place to shop! Do you get those large 20% off coupons in the mail like I do? I have about 20 of them. What do you do with yours once they are expired? Throw them out? I hope not! Did you know Bed Bath and Beyond will take those expired coupons? Did you know you can use more than one? My Mom told me months ago that she was using the expired coupons and they happily take them. She also told me if she has 5 items, she can use 5 coupons. I told her it's because she's a Senior Citizen. She told me it's not because of that. She was right. You can use the expired coupons. If you have 5 items, you can use 5 coupons. Amazing isn't it? So, stop throwing out the expire... 01/01/2010
