I took the family shopping in Coralville yesterday and thought it would be a good excuse to stop in and see SOM new store. Got there about 11:30 AM and finally found the store. It is basically right behind the HandiMart on exit 4. Take a right turn around the Handimart and you are on Kansas. Go about 100 ft to a stop sign and take another right onto Madison. It is in a residential area but you can see the store which is blue and looks like a ranch style house.
Anyway nobody was around and the place was closed. I stopped into the old store and saw a sign that said he had moved. I called the phone number left on the door about every hour and never got an answer or any kind of message. No hours posted on either store either. We stopped again on our way out of town about 6:30 PM and still closed. It looks like a nice place from what I could see from the window, but I gotta say I am not going to be in a hurry to make a 3 hr round trip back when it seems to be hit or miss if he's even open. This was pretty much like the only other time I was able to make the trip with JWessels to the old store. Sign said he opened at noon but it was 2:30-3 PM before he showed up and we never could get him on the phone.
I can't imagine how much money and how many potential customers he is loosing because he doesn't seem to have any reliable hours. Pretty frustrating if you are from out of town!
