Postal Planet moving
Posted Tuesday, February 9, at 7:46 AM
A month after new ownership took over, a Jackson postal business is planning a March relocation.
Dr. Wayne and Sharon Sarno assumed control of Postal Planet, 2905 E. Jackson Blvd., on Jan. 1. They're planning a move to 1166 Greenway Drive, Suite A4, on March 1. The new location will include additional services such as secure document shredding and notary services. Its hours and phone number will remain the same. Once Postal Planet moves, it will mark the second time the business has relocated since September. When then-owner Mike Lackamp purchased the business then he moved Postal Planet from 2114 E. Jackson Blvd. Postal Planet can be reached at 204-8222 and is open 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

I haven't visited Mario's yet but I have eaten at quite a few more. I'd love to know your thoughts about your favorite pizza joint...
How are you spending your tax return refund? My wife and I filed our tax return last week and received quite a bit more refund than last year, mainly because of the benefits of a child. I'm planning on paying off some bills, purchasing a small digital camera that was lost a couple of weeks ago and saving the majority. But I'd like to know what you plan on doing with your refund. Please post or e-mail bblackwell@semissourian.com with your answers...
Mall clothing store closes; another restaurant could be out of business A stroll through West Park Mall on Tuesday afternoon included learning that an Anaheim, Calif.-based clothing store has closed. PacSun, which caters to the teenage crowd, apparently shut its doors within the last few days. Meanwhile, the Sonic Drive-In at 2126 Broadway has the words "closed" on its billboard that normally advertises its specials. One would think that meant the fast-food restaurant has shut its doors but I'm waiting to hear back from the higher ups for official confirmation...
Vintage Cape Girardeau video Cape Girardeau has made some efforts to boost tourism lately, with the most recent being the exploration of a sign system directing visitors, tourists and students through the city. This morning our librarian Sharon Sanders directed me to an old-school video about the city.
