Target Store Plans Prompts Arrival of New Sayville Shop

An Attias Flea Market vendor moves downtown to sell unique Indian clothing, accessories.

While the arrival of a Target store at the Attias Flea Market in Sayville is at least a year off, the big box retailer is already having an impact on Sayville's downtown business district.

And that impact is positive, at least for now, as a flea market vendor has moved into an empty Main Street storefront.

Guru's officially opened its doors this past weekend, offering Indian clothing, accessories, jewelry, spiritual items as well household décor and even chess sets.

The airy spacious shop, which also boasts beautiful tapestries and women’s scarves, also offers a wide range of incense products.

Store employee and Sayville resident Danielle Merrill also advises checking out the unique handbags as they make for great holiday gifts.

“I love this store and ended up working here because I was such a fan when they were in the flea market,” she told Patch.

And so the taxpayer is once again asked to give more to an already out of control and bloatedRead More system. Every year the school districts on Long Island receive increases of millions of dollars to their budgets, and still they want to bleed the taxpayer for more. As two income families struggle to pay exorbitant tax bills, we’re asked to pay even more? We’ll here’s a novel idea, how about if the teachers union’s began demanding less? This early retirement baloney must stop, salaries should be capped, administrators and their staffs must be cut by at least eighty percent. In addition, educators and staff should have to pay for their own medical and retirement plans just as the rest of us must. Here on Long Island, families are suffering and sacrificing, and many are being forced to leave due to taxes which are out of control. It is time for educators to cease hiding behind children with threats of decreased student programs, and to make an honest and realistic observation as to why things are as bad as they are. To blame parents for not paying enough into the system to support the schools is ludicrous. The real problem lies in a system which is self serving, and run by incompetents blind to the harm they are inflicting upon our children and families.
