Shopping: Space travel supplies
Looking for something that you'll never find anywhere else? Look no further than the Greenwood neighborhood in Seattle. Located at the intersection of Greenwood Avenue and 85th Street NE, you'll find the Greenwood Space Travel Supply store.
With rocket parking on the roof and an interplanetary atomic transporter located in the store, it's very easy to get to even from as far away as Pluto. Inside you'll find astronaut food, clothing, blasters, and diversion equipment. Any little doo-dad your universal travel might need. In fact, their motto is, "If we don't have it, you don't need it."
The best part of the place isn't really the items you purchase, but the hilarious copy on the packaging. For instance, you can purchase a Near Death Ray which asks, "Why kill when you can be stunning?" and whose features include, "Stockholm-syndrome compatible" and "Sleek yet undeniably intimidating design." Any of these items are a must have for the gift giving traveler.
Part of the growing Dave Eggers empire, Greenwood Space Travel Supply is the storefront to 826 Seattle, a writing and tutoring center for children aged 6 to 18. Manned entirely by volunteers, all proceeds from the store go directly to the non-profit.
