We caught Judy Bronson, the queen of antiques in Bluffton, while she was eating lunch in her new expanded location, at 902 N. Main St. and like everyone else who steps foot into the new location, we said: “Wow!”

Bronson moved from Deer Creek Shoppes in downtown Bluffton to the former Diller Medical building over the Christmas holidays.

“I officially opened on Jan. 21,” she said. “We are now open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.”

There's two flavors of the month at Shirley's Gourmet Popcorn Co. in February, according to Peter Suter.
   
"The arrival of February brings one of your favorite flavors back to Shirley's - Oreo-White Chocolate," he said. "We begin with our sweet red candy-coated popcorn, mix in lots of crushed up Oreo cookies, then top it off with smooth white chocolate. This is the perfect treat for your significant other this Valentine's Day."  

But wait... there's more.

Ten Thousand Villages, 115 S. Main St., Bluffton has some great Valentine's Day ideas, according to Aphaphanh Nussbaum, manager.
