Okay Mount Vernon… this is Dale. I just took over this amazing little shop full of local vendors. There is so much talent locally and I’m a believer in people having space to display their talents. This space is great and I want to invite you to shop with us. Give the locals a chance as we compete against the corporate giants. Especially with the holidays coming up this is a great way to support local talent and get great and unique gifts. We are located in The Times Square Mall in Mt Vernon, IL right next to Glicks. Come and shop with us 😊

💥EXCITING NEWS💥 Friends, we finally get to spill the beans! ❤️

You may not have known this, but we were concerned that The AUX might have to close its doors .Our lease is up in January, and with the ongoing struggle to find enough volunteers to keep the store staffed during regular business hours, we were facing a pretty tough decision.

But wait... there's a plot twist! 😉

MEET DALE!!! 🎉

Dale is stepping in to give The AUX a new beginning, and we couldn't be more excited! He's helping save the store and giving it a chance to continue serving our community!

In February, The AUX will officially become Dale's store, and it will have a new name (TBA!). Things are looking a little different, but here's some GOOD NEWS for our regular shoppers...

OUR VENDORS ARE STAYING!!! ❤️ You can still shop all the wonderful handmade, vintage, unique and specialty items you've come to love!
And Dale has ALREADY brought in NEW MERCHANDISE for you to shop just in time for Christmas! Think great items at great closeout prices! 🎁

And speaking of bargains...
👚 ALL of our regular thrift clothing is just $1 RIGHT NOW!

We want to thank everyone who has supported The AUX, shopped with us, donated, volunteered, and helped make this little store what it is.

And a BIG WELCOME TO DALE! We are excited to see what this next chapter brings!

THE AUX ISN'T CLOSING... IT'S GETTING A NEW BEGINNING! ❤️

Stay tuned for more details! There's lots of exciting stuff ahead! 🎉
