The Seattle Traveler

This Weekend. . .

. . . stock up on all the cards and gifts you’ll need this fall at the quirky, wacky, and irreverent Not a Number Cards & Gift in Wallingford.

But don’t think you’re just going to pop in, pick up a card, and be done with it.  Nope, you’ll be looking and laughing at some many things that you’ll soon have tears running down your face or sides that hurt from the laughter.  If you’re shopping with a friend, you’ll constantly be nudging one another to share what you’ve discovered and to have a communal laugh.  The words heard there most often — “look at this!”

The humorous novelty line includes a nice representation of political humor and items designed by local artists.  There are even environmental and eco-friendly selections as well.  And lots and lots of cards.

Here’s a sample of the some of the eclectic choices you’ll find:  crazy cat lady action figure, bacon bandages, Jade Planet Vegan Boots, martini clock, and a doughnut scented air freshener (in the shape of a police officer).  There’s plenty here to amuse or offend everyone!

Location:  1905 North 45th, Wallingford (map it)

Hours:  Monday – Wednesday 11 am-7 pm; Thursday & Friday 11 am-8 pm; Saturday 11 am-9 pm, Sunday noon-6 pm.  Closing hours are a bit flexible, so if you see the light on, stop by, they’ll likely be happy to help you out.

Not a Number also is has a strong community following.  People stop by to read the community bulletin board, pick up local flyers and newspapers, and just hang out.  It’s a great place to visit and shop, and you are always among friends.
