Hello,

As the buyer for the business I can assure you that cost was always on our mind. Very few of our T-shirts were $38.00. And the price you pay depends on what we pay. We pay a lot, you pay a lot.

Having said that, I want to thank everyone who has shopped with us for the last 5 years. We will miss each and every one of you. We are keeping the web site up and hope to have you visit. We are going to try to get a little store going in Bakersfield to help run the web site from.

The reason that we are closing the store is that economic times are hard. People have less to spend so when you need gifts and goodies you tend to spend less and therefore sales go down. We hope to ride out this economic wave and then be able to get back to more mainstream locations.

Happy Trails,
Cassie

hi Cassie,
Thanks for posting. As a business owner (of high end gift items) I can greatly sympathize with the Happy Trails folks and I am sad to see you go! My parking angel and I wave good bye......
